New arrival: Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought

Working out of town leaves a lot of loose ends, including the collection of toy packages. But the wait has been worth it, I am happy to say that in front of me now is the lovely Forge World Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought, complete with close combat weapon and Las-cannon. I am hoping to magnetise the weapon arms (rightly too) to accommodate future weapon fits.

Badab War: The future of the Minotaurs

Firstly I would like to say thank you to everyone who has been reading the blog, it has been a barren couple of months for hobby content due to work commitments. The work project I am currently on is set for completion end of July and I am intending to get a big update on the Minotaurs project once I get back. The armouries of the Minotaurs have certainly swelled over the months and more additions are set for the the end of the month!

Warmachine: Update from the front

The recent months have been very 40K orientated with my Minotaurs taking centre stage, however the arrival of the Warmachine 'Wrath' hardback and Kommander Harkevich has sparked a reboot of interest in my Khador collection. 

I have worked out a new 35 point list incorporating the Iron Wolf and am happy with the selection (and the fact it's not another Butcher list) and will be writing and posting wip's in the upcoming months as I build up the new force.

Until then, check out Warmachine and the new expansion 'Wrath' at: Wayland Games - Discount Wargames

Forge World: Space Marine Heavy Weapons set

The retro theme continues as Forge World releases the Space Marine Heavy Weapon set. The designs are throw backs to the Rogue Trader design as to be expected, and come with supporting arms and back packs to give that authentic old school finish.

The weapons listed are: Plasma Cannon, Lascannon, Heavy Bolter and Multimelta, so everything you need to add heavy arms to your Pre-Heresy armour/variant armies. The set comes in at a surprising £10.20 price tag and a 27th June release date.

I know my Minotaurs will be happy about this release.

Badab War: Armour havoc

As a added bonus to ending a hard week's work, my GW order was ready for collection. I now have sitting in front of me all the components needed to finish the first 1500pts of Minotaur Space Marines, all that remains now is to build and paint. Scary thing is, I have not even touched this lot and I am already plotting more purchases!
