Tournaments, Necrons and Gauss, oh my!

So, recently I have decided to enter into a 500pt doubles tournament at Warhammer world. Its a local GW store based thing, where 2-3 coaches worth of guys travel down from where I'm based in Scotland and we play a few rounds of 40k with our friends at the best warhammering place in the world.

I'm having a lot of trouble with my White Scorpions - Basically I can't get the damn things to look the way I want them to when I am building and converting them, and when I do I cant decide on a proper paint recipe. So, rather than struggle to get 500pts done in time, or do 500pts I am not happy with, I decided to start afresh and do some of those shiny shiny new Necrons.

So, 500pts of Necrons. My list:

Overlord w/ Warscythe, Command Barge
5x Immortals - Tesla
11x Warriors
Annihilation Barge

Which comes to roughly 500pts. Fairly balanced list, plenty of delicious Tesla, and not too many models for me to paint in time.

So, the painting part, I've spent the last week or so messing around with the Plastic overlord you get in the Command Barge box, and here are the results:

Fairly pleased with the green glowy bits on his war-scythe and orbs, but still need to work on the crystal effect on his shoulder plates, that hasn't come through the way I wanted it to. Next up is the Command Barge, so will update that on here as it comes.

Oh, in case you missed it, I put up a magnetisation tutorial on MWC the other day for the Command/Annihilation Barge, so lemme know what you think there as well.

Cheers guys!

Aw yeah.

So Aurelian came out. I bought the Gold edition, which is the larger hardback book signed by Aaron Dembski-Bowden with the number of your edition printed inside.

I WIN

I'm not dead. Honest.

Long(ish) time, no updates!! Been super busy since my return from africa, plus GoW3 came out, so... yeah. Anyway, updates!!

First up is another scout, this time using a FW Cadian veteran head. For long time I have hated the Scout heads, they have no necks and look like bodybuilder children, they just look... weird. So I have been searching around for a long while, and have decided to use these, as well as some Elysian heads and a couple of the Catachan command ones.

Grumpy, but neat lookin'

And keeping with the theme that my scouts have been in the field waay longer than they should have, I have GS'd a rip into his left knee.

His space-mum is going to be pissed

Going to build up another one soon, and add some more damage to the rest of the squad when they are done.

Also, I have decided that I love the Mk2 Jump Packs:

WHEEEEEEE

Oh, and I super promise that I will post a Dreadfleet review in the next few days. But in the meantime, trust me: its awesome.

Leave me a comment people!!
