Back for good!


So I’m back! This time school is fully over. I've got positive feedback. Not like some other people… That will teach the backstabbers.
I didn’t paint much this past 2 months, because of school. Missed 2 tournaments but since I’m now finished with school it was a small price to buy. I’ve painted some Inifity figures, 3 terminators and the other cultists who where in the Dark Vengeance box. What’s on the planning for me now? First off all I’m going to live together with my girlfriend. After 4years the day is almost there. Only 2 weeks left!
  • Play some World Of Warcraft until I move
  • Put everything in boxes for the big move!
  • Unload everything from the boxes and give it a place
  • Built and paint my scratch built Khorne Lord on a Juggernaut of the Khorne. Aka a Nurgle Marine on a gaint maggot
  • Paint a Demon Prince with black mace, power armour and wings (arms are magnetized)
  • Paint a count as Bloodthirster
  • Paint a count as Beast of Nurgle
  • Paint a Daemon Prince of Nurgle (Mister Nurgle / Fat Plague Gentlemen)
  • Paint Dreadfleet with the miss
  • Built and paint myself a Plague Tower (because of Apocalypse coming!)
  • Built and paint some Black Templar terminators & Stormraven
  • ....
 I'm also rethinking my Nurgle Angels list. Two helldrakes are must in my list now.
And 3x 5 Plague Marines with Plasma guns. Two squads of Havocs with Autocannons and an Aegis Defence Line.

Good times are coming! The Emperor approves!
Papa Nurgle wants to hug you... If thats a good idea I don't know!

12th Conflict


Sunday 14th april it was 12th conflict in Aarschot. The 12th time Team Conectr organized this tournament and I had another great time. The missions they had where the same. My army wasn't!
Last Time I brought Blood Angels this time it was Chaos Space Marines. Most likely I'm going to tour with Nurgle Angels for the next few years.  The first battle was against Chaos Daemons. First time I played against them. It was a fun battle, but we didn't get past the third turn the result was a draw. No problem for me. His flying monstrous creatures had just landed in my lines. I was glad the game was done.... I wasn't going to make it otherwise. Didn't do anything wrong here. Slaanesh daemons & screamers just are nasty. So are the flying monstrous creatures...

 After the lunch it was up against the archenemy of Grandfather Nurgle! Tzeetch Chaos Space Marines! The two parts that really made me sad was that my Great Unclean One was destroyed on deepstriking and my Chaos Lord turned into a Chaos Spawn... Was good battle nonetheless didn't do much of mistakes. Should have focused more on his squad of Thousand Suns and don't roll 1 on the deepstrike mishap table...

My future Daemon Prince?
Last battle was against Wim (the person after Wobbly Model Syndrome). Last year the first battle was against him. Next year will meet half way? So this battle didn't turn out like I thought it would be. Made some errors and some scarifies. Like placing my Plaguebearers in front of this Carnifex unit. Something had to distract the fire! After that my Havoc luckily killed his Warlord. I didn't get first blood.  My damn rhino's keep giving that away. But still It brings them where the battle is and the lets plasma away! Or poison the Tervigon!  They did manage to get a wound of! In the end my lone plague marine survived the battle against his Zoanthrope.  And don't place the Helldrake with his rear facing the Carnifex all those twin linked shots!

The person who won the tournament was a Dutch guy playing with 3 Helldrakes, 3 Maulerfiends, 2 Hellbrutes with autocannons or lascannons, 2 units of plague marines in a Rhino, a Chaos Lord with Burning Brand, Aegis Defence Line and them some cultists to fill in the rest of the points.
Not so sure about the Maulerfiends. Hellbrutes maybe yes! I'm thinking about making a Daemon Prince with the Black Mace, Wings and Power Armour. Other than that, there is a going to be a second Helldrake in my list for sure this summer.
The Score

Also the last painting for the tournament list. I'm going to tour with this list for the next few times to see how it goes against other armies. But the second Helldrake and Daemon Prince are coming in the summer list for sure!
First 2 autocannon Havocs + squad leader
Last 2 autocannon Havocs + Lascannon
Old School Death Guard Flamer squad
Last 3 bikers
Great Unclean one
With that done its time for more focus on my schoolwork.

It's been a while

So, it's been from february that I wrote something. I've been to two tournaments and one training day since that. The Green Knight Doubles Tournament was a succes as the guys from The Green Knight allways do a great job.
Blight Drone in action
Had some great but tough battles that day. Orcs & Necrons was versus the first battle. Second was against sister of battle with imperial guard. The final battle was Tau and Dark Angels, a weird but evil combo. Since Tau is getting a new codex, I will see them soon enough on the boards.

Than the Thunderbolts in Gent did a small tournament. which was fun but the rules changed during the game. The rules weren't all that clear.
It was their first 40k tournament, so no problem. Who knows how our tournament will be from Replay? I fought that day against Space Wolves, Eldar and Nurgle Marines. Good battles and learned some extra stuff.
Flamers in all kind of colours
The training day was good to learn that guard are indeed evil bastards and can be great allies. Damn mortars with S9 AP3 and T7? Damn... Don't know if they are Forgeworld or codex, I should look that up.  I went for a minor loss because we both didn't had the primary objective complete.
I learned it the hard way that I'm using my lord too aggressive... Next battle I placed him behind Rhino. and that went much better.
Fight was against an Imperial Guard army with Ork allies, nob bikers with painboy. Luckily only the painboy survived before he got into combat. 2plasma shots killed the Warboss. Go Papa Nurgle!
My oppontent also rolled bad with scatter dice and such.... Plaguebearers are great objective campers, I should paint some more, the Great Unclean one is also a beast. But next time I'm giving him different awards.

Great Unclean One loves Papa Nurgle
My last battle was versus Thousands Suns. A minor loss because we both didn't do the primary objective. His chaos lord became a Daemon Prince though... Pretty cool!
For the tournament I'm gonna place my aegis defence line not on the exact 12" line but more behind, so that I can place rhino's and the lord before. I can place my havocs behind them and do more damage in this way. I'll have to see how the terrain will be placed. I might have to change my tactic then.

If been thinking about taking Necron allies BUT... I'm not so sure about that. Here is why: their is the 3 flyer restriction which results in a complete overhaul new tactic. One of my thought is taking a daemon prince with black mace. I'm gonna have to test that. Or maybe an extra Helldrake and switch Typhus for a biker lord, then again I don't have a burning brand that way. Oooh, I will see!
Necrons & Chaos: Fluff wise correct?
I painted a hellbrute with plasma cannon,  a Havoc squad, some bikers and, a Khorne lord.

Seems like I have forgotten to take a picture from the bikers I have painted. Ooh well next time!

I'm currently working on an extra havoc squad, a Great Unclean One and 2 bikers left on the desktop.

Belgica Hiver 2012


So it's been some time since is posted something.  If have been painting a little Nurgle Daemon army. For when the Chaos Daemons codex is comes out. Also went to a Double Tournament in the French area of Belgium. Belgica Hiver 2012! I went with my Chaos Space Marines and my teammate with Imperial Guard.It was a fun experience but I don't know for sure if I ever would go on a 1vs1 tournament. Since my French isn't really all that good. We had 3 great battles. First battle was against Blood Angels & Imperial Guard. This was a draw and a good and exciting battle! Next was up against Grey Knight & Dark Angels. Well they outshot us. So that was little of a bummer. We killed a Dreadknight, Coteaz, Contemptor dreadnought and some other Grey Knight / Dark Angels units.
The third and last battle was Chaos Space Marines + Chaos Daemons. A fluffly but it was a weird armylist.  Still was great to see the Flamers of Tzeentch in action. Wasn't really impressed, they died too quick. But when they did they're attack they were good. Hoping Nurgle gets also something cool in the new Codex. The Chaos Marines where easily whipped out by the Helldrake + assault from spawns and Chaos Nurgle Lord on his Bike. Overall I was really impressed by the Helldrake. Sadly most of the time he was shot out of the air. His going to see alot of play time this year!

Started painting my Nurgle Tournament Army. Only have my bikers and autocannon dudes left. Who has to come from the Forgeworld order.

Old School Plasma + Flamer

Nurgle Lord on bike with Power fist + Lighting Claw + Burning brand of Skalathrax
Great Unclean One
Pink Plaguebearer Squad
Green Plaguebearer squad
Herald of Nurgle

If also been thinking about some Traitor Guard. Since if seen Guard in action a few times. And I like the idea of them to have joined the Nurgle Angels in a battle against the false Emperor.
I was thinking about a Commisar who rebeled  his generals and killed them and has joined the path of Khorne since then. Only thing that is a bummer: Khorne hates psykers. So that would be a Nurgle Psyker who joins them.

Librarian Painting Challenge 2013



So let's see what have I done the past week? All that hard work finally comes to an end. It almost comes to an end! 5months to go! But now some painting pictures:

The Nurgle gang together
The purple dude represent the sergeant
What did I paint? Well I built 7 plaguebearers, 1 Herald of Nurgle, Khorne Lord and a Hellbrute with Plasma Cannon. This is for my Librarian Painting Challenge 2013. I hope to get a small Nurgle Daemon army together to be allies with my Nurgle Angels when the Daemons get a new codex. I also painted my Helldrake! So that's off the air.  Picture time:





The rest of my LPC vow:
Khorne Lord
Hellbrute with some small conversions. He needs some Nurglings on his head
