Post "Throne of Skulls pt 2" Report
Okay,
I have been back a week now and had time to digest the events of last weekend. I had a great time, lots of bad luck, and scored some real bargains from Forge World in the process.
My son and I (He took his Dark Eldar) arrived in Nottingham on the friday night about 11pm and were up till 4:30am doing last minute painting and repairs.
I was up again at 6:30am (couldn't sleep) and put finishing touches on my army. I went with 26 thunderhammers and a force weapon. The 3 speeders provided long range missle support for a mere 225 pts. I had alot of trouble securing 26 sets of thunderhammers and stormshields and if not for several bits sites, I would never of made it.
Now I had high hopes for this army, and in all fairness, it is a spam list to take advantage of the recent update to the Dark Angels. With a total of 16 Krak shots each turn, it was not exactly a push over. And 2+/3+(i) saves are pretty good too. We arrived late (I blame the son, he's a lightweight when it comes to sleep deprivation) and had about 15 mins to have a look around before registration started and tables assigned.
For my first battle, I was pitted against a beautiful Imperial Fists army belonging to Kevin Chin, a GW artist responsible for work in the Dark Eldar and Ogre Kingdoms codex's. Here is a link to a pic... Warhammer World on Facebook!
In the coming days, I'll post some battle reports and more lovely pics....
Cheers and Happy Hunting!
