Lano Talks About: Journeyman WarmaHordes League

Hello again!

Today we talk about WarmaHordes Journeyman league which my local gaming club is going to begin soon.

My other gaming buddy has looked into his collection and tried to pick a force to go with, check his blog @theflamingheretic

So my options are quite thin tbh, it's either Legion of Everblight or Legion of Everblight... Since it's all I have!!

I do have a starter Farrow army, but it's too expensive for me to do, and I don't have the Battlebox force yet. 

Working out at £30ish a week to get me points, and £65 to start, it's money I sadly don't have :(

So let's talk Legion of Everblight...

Firstly...

Lylyth, The Herald of Everblight 

Lylyth is a typical support caster! Her bow allows free charges and the automatic hitting of spells. Considering her fury stat is 5, this is a major boost in her abilities. With natural Def 16 and Armour 14, she is also tricky to pin down!

I always find her a pleasurable caster to play as, Parasite and Eruption of Spines are great offensive spells, while Bad Blood is mainly for Hordes, it is a totally devastating spell against them.

Next up, is the Carnivean.

The heaviest, gnarliest, powerfulist, smackiest, thrashiest AND MOST expensive non-character heavy Warbeast in Hordes. Weighing in at 11pts, this guy boasts a single POW18 and two POW16 WITH an assaulting POW14 10" Spray! Coupled with Lylyth's Parasite, he is an absolute monster. If he gets the charge against another heavy, he WILL munch you. Having been playing this game for a while now, while he hits like a dumpster truck on steroids, he is too expensive, but none the less, he is a force to be reckoned with in any list.

Lastly, 4 Shredders

Coming in at 2pts each, these guys are great Fury batteries and pocket rockets. They excel at tying up infantry and lights and amazing at clearing out solos and stranded strangers.

Most people not take these for the animus, with gives +1Def and Arm! On Lylyth she would be Def17! 

Having 4 will be useful, by working together, I reckon they COULD just maybe take on a heavy. 

Lano Paints WarmaHordes: Everblight Incubi and Afflictor Light Warbeast

So in the last week, I've managed to paint a few things, mostly, my Razor Boars for my Thornfall Army, and a few units and solos for my Everblight.

Unfortunate I've recently broken the camera on my phone which has just been fixed so no photos of these new additions yet!

What I will grace you with though is the pictures of my other models I've painted over the last few weeks. 

First up, is my Incubi

These guys are awesome. A set of solos I try to not leave home without now!

Legion have very high defence in comparison to other armies, so when you finally kill one, these blighters some out (see what I did there?!) and strike you with POW15 combo strike! Great for tar pitting and wonder striking jacks and beasts!

Now to go with these guys, a suitable Warbeast had to be painted, and I have one right here! 

The Afflictor! If these light Warbeast kills you, it turns you into an Incubi! Straight out of an Alien movie! 

I tend to run this with Bethayne, since she herself carries a lot of infantry and a Sourceress on Helion, the Afflictor has loads of models that he can pawn shots off to with his Sacrificial Pawn Animus.

Lano Paints WarmaHordes: Farrow Minions Lord Carver BMMD EsqIII + Farrow Razorback Crew

So as I said before, I have been immensely caught up in Warmachine and Hordes in which I mainly play Everblight, to many dismay, specially Riot and Heretic from other blogs with whom I regularly play with! 

So I decided to invest in a new army. 

And the first that came to mind was PIGS!!

The idea of a massive pig with axes pummelling a robot into the ground amuses me greatly! And at the FLGS I saw a great opportunity to proxy a Razorback Artillery crew.

So as I play a game, I imagine miniatures to pause, think, and exclaim...

"Is that a flying pig.....!?"

Excuse any rubbish in the background, I'm living with a mate and my house is as messy as you'd expect 2 make students to be!

Anyway, coming in with a POW15 hit, anything this pig lands on WILL take a sizable chink of damage! All I have to do is hit with the damn thing first!

Along with this I have made personalised flags to act as my "Grunt" for the unit, with everyone's name on one. And every time I get a Warbeast or Warjack kill il mark a point 

^_^

Lastly, I took the time out the same night to paint my Warlock for my new army, 

Lord Carver BMMD EsqIII (for those of you who don't know, that's Bringer of Most Massive Destruction Esquire the Third).

A Pig with a shotgun and a huge sword like Cloud from Final Fantasy VII? Yes please. And you know what that say about huge swords? Bigger the sword smaller the penis? And while painting this miniature, I'm pretty sure I didn't really see a penis at all!

Yet again, ignore the messy background.

And have a good evening people!!

Returning To The Table!

So after a 6 month break from Blogging, I finally return!

A lot has happened in the last 6Months. 

Namely, our FLGS has begun to close down, a lack of stock and word that the owner has financial problems is leading us to find other place to convene! 

I myself have finished university this year and have several projects on the go, still with WH Fantasy and more importantly Warmachine and Hordes!

Privateer Press' game has gripped me and with the new edition of 40k which I don't agree with, I have found myself playing WarmaHordes a lot more!

Enough of the trivial things that have been going on, the real reason I've resumed posting is for my good friend Riot from RiotVilleOnFire. He's always hammering at me to continue blogging!

So here I am people, I've finally found my lost password and ready to continue where I left off.
