The much delayed 10th part of the Warhammer 40,000 Imperium Battle Report Series.
In this episode, we a trio of Assault Intercessors attempt to prevent two squads of Necron Warriors reaching their objective! Who will prevail in this battle between the sinister Necrons and the noble warriors of the Imperium of Mankind.
Well we did not do much for the celebration, we had Paul and Mary over, played some games and watched Jools Holland.
Resolutions wise, I published an article the other day, but beyond modelling I will be streaming twice weekly and will maintain that as best I can.
And I also plan to play 60 board games this year and read 35 books!
If you are daft enough to want to watch me, I will be streaming the following times.
Monday 8pm to 12 Midnight (GMT) – Painting
Thursday 8pm to 12 Midnight (GMT) – Video Games, starting with Assassins Creed
Another live streamed thing is in the works and may start this week!
What I Am Modelling
Most of the week was taken up building models, and I have gotten myself quite far ahead of where I wanted to be.
I have built my Corpse Grinder Christ’s, Fire Warriors, Pathfinders, Breachers and a Crisis Suit Team for the T’au, everything from Kill Team Octarius, the Imperial Navy stuff from Wings of Vengeance, my remaining AdMech as well as a few other bits and bobs.
I did start painting on New Years Day an Ork Weirdboy to see in 2022.
And then painted the Templates from Kill Team.
This was followed by a Primaris Lieutenant with Storm Shield.
And some Endless Spells for Age of Sigmar.
So what’s up next week?
Flesh Hounds x 10 & Karanak
Confederacy on Independent Systems Droiddekkas x 4
Age of Sigmar Endless Spells
Death Guard Caestus Assault Ram
Adeptus Custodes Vertus Praetors x 3 & Captain on Dawneagle Jetbike
Skitarii Rangers x 10
General Grievous
Ork Flash Gitz x 5
Sicarian Ruststalkers x 5
T’au Pathfinders x 10
What I Am Reading
I finished a the Gates of Thelgrim and a review should be published tomorrow.
I have now started at long last on Warhawk and I really enjoying the book, it’s very well crafted thus far.
What Video Games Am I Playing
Mostly just Halo: Infinite where I can, usually one or two games of the multiplayer a night.
Also played Forza Horizon 5 for the first time in a few weeks.
Also been enjoying playing a bit of Donut County which is quite enjoyable and stress relieving.
And finally a game of The Sock Game which the team of me and Megan won
Today Megan and Lindsay’s friend Chrissy came round and we played a game of Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu which we won on the very last turn!
What I Am Backing
CoraQuest arrived, and I am really looking forward to playing it!
What I Am Buying
I bought myself Beat Saber for the Quest 2, to give me some more fitness games to try out in VR.
I also grabbed Driver: Parallel Lines, I actually did some play testing in this game, but never got round to buying it as I was too busy with San Andreas at the time, and it was £1.68, so why not!

Who will prevail in this battle between the sinister Necrons and the noble warriors of the Imperium
This week I had my birthday, and it wasn’t what I hoped for.
My sister in laws cat went missing, and I have some medical stuff to deal with.
So Fosfos, Emma’s cat went missing on Sunday night and it’s not like her to wander, so Monday Emma was busy leafleting in Blyth where she lives.
Tuesday, Lindsay and Megan went up to help her, but she was still no where to be found, thankfully she returned home at 2am Tuesday and woke up Emma for cuddles.
So that was a huge relief.
Tuesday night we went out for Nando’s for my birthday, which I really enjoyed, haven’t had a Nando’s since the day before the first lockdown and I really enjoyed it.
Present wise, Lindsay and Megan bought me the Evil Comes Prepared expansion for Disney Villainous and the Orruk Warclans Battletome, and I bought myself the Stormcast Eternals Battletome and the Charadon terrain box.
At the weekend we were meant to have some of our nephews staying but Gandalf our arsehole of a rabbit developed an ear infection, so he had to be rushed to the vets and needs hand feeding for a bit, so that was not a good environment for the boys to stay over as they are very active.
He is slowly getting better, but he really does fight us when it comes time to give him his medication.
What I Am Modelling
I started off by painting the Negavolt Cultists and Rogue Psykers for Blackstone Fortress.
The Rogue Psykers were finished first.
Followed by the Negavolt Cultists.
I then painted up three Assault Intercessors and a Primaris Captain from Imperium.
After which I turned my attention to two squads of Stormcast Eternals Judicators for the Celestial Vindicators.
So what’s planned for next week then?
Mechanicum Magos Macrotek Enginseer & Servo-Automata x 4
Stormcast Eternals Judicators x 10
Ork Nobz x 6, Painboy, Warboss & Grots x 3
Death Korps of Krieg Infantry Squad x 10
Legio Custodes Caladius Grav-Tank x 2
Blackstone Fortress Spindle Drones x 6 & Guardian Drones x 2
Grand Army of the Republic Phase 1 Troopers x 22

What I Am Reading
Actually haven’t read a thing all week 🙁
What Video Games Am I Playing
Played a lot more Halo 3: ODST and got that finished and have now started on Halo Reach!
I also played through Sonic the Hedgehog on the Game Gear, emulated via Retroarch and have a play through video of that uploading tomorrow.
What Tabletop Games Am I Playing
On my birthday we played a game of Ticket to Ride: London, and I was three points off wining, but I am happy I didn’t come last again!
On Sunday me and Lindsay had a game off Ticket to Ride: Germany using her new Play Pink train set. And surprisingly I won!
After that Megan joined us to play a game of Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu, and we managed to close all four gates and save the world from the terror of the Old Ones!
What Am I Creating
I published a Warhammer 40K Battle Report of my Death Guard taking on Megans Orks, which you can see below.
What I Am Backing
Munchkin Mayhem looks amazing, and I have decided to back it, cause well I love Munchkin.
So I went in on the YOU GOT GAME! level, it’s only £12 or so, but I really think it could be a cool game.
