Greetings!
I have been caught up with work and miscellaneous other projects, so I have
been quite unproductive hobby vice lately. Feeling my motivation is about to
return, I started working on a small project, refitting a unit of Warriors and
a Winged Hive Tyrant with Devourers.
Funny how
“small projects” turn out to be something quite different; I had to tear of the
wings in order to fit new arms, this being the old metal model with lots of pinning,
green stuff etc. – well, I finally finished the monstrosity.
Since this
summer I have played my Tyranid army. Although they are not as competitive as
they where in 5th edition, I still have fun playing them, much more
then when I read the new Codex when it first came out, I must admit I got caught up
in all the rant…
Anyway,
focusing on “fun gaming”, I played a great game against a veteran Necron player
a couple of weeks ago. I presented two armies my opponent could choose from,
and I was really happy when he choose to go against a horde swarm.

This was a particularly bloody battle. Almost no models left on either side. Very fun. When we left the gaming table we thought the Necrons had won, but during a drink after the game we had forgotten First Blood and Linebraker, securing a Tyranid victory by one small point. Honestly, it could have gone either way, a game to remember!

Nice to see the Nids are lurking in the grass again. That horde is really disturbing!
ReplyDeleteIt rarely bodes well for our armies when you get your hobby-groove on and star churning out the models you need to enact your latest evil master plan. It's always interesting, though, so I guess the rest of us will just have to pick up the pace and see if we can keep up... ;)
