The great blight!
Alright, so this weekend was the local "Games for Gamers" auction at the Game store. I wanted to dump my Khador (never really liked War Machine, more into Hordes) and I was still sitting on the prize gift certificate from the Tournament win from a couple weekends ago. I figured this would be a good chance to grab some deals.
I wanted to get a huge deal on an army for 40K or Fantasy. Not really sure what the options where going to be for the auction. The options where Tyranids, Necrons, and Tau. I already own Tau, and didn't want to jump on the Tyranid band wagon, so I stole the Necron force. Awesome!
It had a Monolith, five destroyers, 30-something warriors, 5 immortals, a couple Heavy Destroyers, and a hand full of bits. Needless to say, I got some awesome stuff! And another semi-completed army. I already owned about 1500 points worth of Necrons, but now I am easily pushing something like 4K...give or take. Of course some of my units are worthless (more flayed ones than I can shake a stick at!) so I think I could field 3K playable. Good times good times.
So now I am playing Necrons, Space Wolves, Salamanders, and the bastard Tau. I have some sick addiction to power armor armies (3+ saves!) Crazy! Funny considering I still think Warhammer Fantasy is my game of choice.
Fantasy
Speaking of Fantasy...played another game of Fantasy this weekend. Fielded a Warriors of Chaos against the High Elf list. I took max mages. Level 4 Tzeentch, level 2 Tzeentch, level 2 Nurgle, level 2 Slannash. It went pretty bad for me as a whole, and Warriors of Chaos really let me down as an army. I am still filling out the list to match my play style, but right now I am not enjoying the Warriors as much as I did when they where called Mortals. Maybe I need to look into more of the monsters: Dragon Ogres, Trolls, Ogres, whatever. Right now I am fielding pure humans (Marauders, Warriors, Chosen) and I find it boring.
Next time, monsters!
