A Month?! Ack!
Oh no! A month without a post. Life just sort of got ahead of me - summer is always very busy. I’ve been doing some hobby stuff - printing and painting Solar Aux themed around the Imperial Russian army of WW1. I doubt I’ll ever play third ed HH - the community for it died with the new edition here - but at this stage in my hobby life gaming is a secondary concern - I paint and hobby what I feel like doing and even if it never gets used it’ll look cool in my display cases.
Ultramarines Herald and Campaign Update
Just a short post today. I completed an Ultramarines Herald I snagged on Marketplace awhile back. Lovely miniature, absolutely oozes character like most of the Horus Heresy character range.
ProHammer Solo Campaign - The Iron Thorn Crusade 2
Time for another ProHammer solo campaign game! If you missed the first one catch it here This time the Word Bearers will be attempting a Breakout scenario using the Slip-By mission from the ProHammer mission pack. I had a lot of fun doing this as a narrative write up and am enjoying the evolving story - I hope you are as well! In case it wasn’t clear last time - narrative bits are in italics with my commentary on the mechanics/game/random interjections in plaintext. This scenario is all about the attacker (Chaos) trying to exit half their units from the Ultramarines side of the table to bypass a strongpoint.
Quick Admin Update
A really quick admin update touching on a few things.
ProHammer Solo Campaign - The Iron Thorn Crusade
I had a free evening and decided to take ProHammer for a solo spin. I’ve talked about it before on the blog - this project is an effort to create a single unified “middlehammer” ruleset, pulling heavily from 4th edition Warhammer and allowing armies from any 3rd-7th edition codex. There is a WEALTH of goodness in this range and is peak 40k for me (I started playing around the time the “3.5” edition codicies began releasing, I still have my Space Marines 3.0 codex and its Blood Angels supplement from when I was a pre-pubescent nerd utterly captivated by the setting). I recently made some extra terrain for my home setup going and thought I’d take the rules for a spin and play a little narrative that may turn into a whole campaign for when I want to play Warhammer but dont have anybody free to play with.
