Eldar Rumours: My thoughts

I have been keeping my eye on the rumours of the new Eldar release, I have quite an interest in the little blighters after all. So far I am quite surprised at the amount of new releases we have and the price tagged onto these. Before I go any further these are a few of the rumours I have found...

Warmachine rule book

I have got both the rule book and the quick start guide from the 2 player starter set. I have read over both and i have to say compared to 40k (as its all i have to compare it to really) the warmachine rule book isn't set up in a very friendly way. The quick start guide is great, it explains everything i need to know to begin with, but is limited. 

Time for a new game: Warmachine

With my attention slightly turned away from my Eldar, it has let other things worm its way in. While I have been playing with my space wolves they apparently don’t hold my attention as well as the pointy eared ones. So it has come to pass that another game is about to be added to my repertoire, Warmachine. 

WraithSighted!

I was going over my blogroll and some how missed this! HERO posted the new codex cover and wraithknight? Either way i had to re-post.

So this is the wraithknight? i can't help but feel its just the Riptide but with an eldar flavor  Even the model stance is the same, same equipment, 1 big gun, support gun, shield. I Have to say i'm a little disappointed  I know there isn't much you can do with a big wraithlord but come one, a little more uniqueness would have been nice. I'm still going to buy one though.

Wraithguard 50% done!

It's been a while since these guys last appeared but i am slowly painting them. It was a lot easier to paint the first 3, but i am determined to get them painted before the next codex. Knowing my luck they will be a terrible choice and i will never use them again... lets wait and see. Currently i would say they are 50% done, so not too long till i can be happy to field them.

And this little base is a hint at what i am painting up after the wraithguard. Any guesses? tomorrows post should explain more.

The Pack Howls... Space Wolves vs Imperial Guard 1500

The first outing for my 3^rd edition themed Space wolves, and it’s against Imperial guard in a 1500 point game of Big guns never tire with 5 objectives. The deployment was vanguard strike in a rather wooded table. So we have an interesting game to test the list out again, wish me luck.

Howl from the past - using a 3rd edition list in 6th edition

With the decision to shelve the Eldar for the time being it has allowed me to use a different army for the next few games before the new codex is released. I have several armies, all in different states of repair and painting, but i decided that i would use the army i haven’t really used since 4^th edition (bar a game vs thousand sons). The space wolves are here for the time being...
