Tag: Heretic Legions

It’s Been A While Since I Was The GM!!!

It’s been a very very long time since I have GMd, pretty much since my brain injury it’s been very difficult, it leaves me in a lot of pain afterwards due to the metal concentration needed and I get really sleepy after it.

But Megan asked for only one thing for her birthday and that was for me to write and run an adventure for her, no small task

So I set to and and went with one inspired by Nurgle from Warhammer alongside a good deal of grimdark body horror

The party responded to a summons from a village priest for magic users who could help him treat a plague that he felt was just as much an infection of the soul as it was the body

I set up the idea of a moral dilemma, that forced them to kill one of two parties, but Emma, Megan’s sister decided to simply go for the option I thought was gonna be the hardest choice, which unleaded the big bad plague Deamon if the encounter.

Of course there was no happy ending with the villagers taking some extreme actions in the end to cleanse thier souls

Hopefully it was enjoyed, nit you never know with these things

What I Am Modelling

I started out by finishing up a couple of Winged Hive Tyrants

I then painted up this Death Commando for the Heretic Legions for Trench Crisade

Tried some different techniques to do what I would have normally done, and I am pretty happy with how it turned out

I also painted this Venerable Dreadnought for the Blood RavensC despite the fact that it’s likely soon headed to Legends

I also printed out some new tokens for Heresy as I have misplaced mine

Followed by Haarken Worldclaimer of the Black Legion to join my Chaos Space Marines

After this I painted up a couple of squads of Havocs to join the True Sons

I also printed some order tokens for my Astra Militarium

And finally I painted a unit of Einhyr Hearthguard to join the Votann


So whata up next?

  1. Blood Angels Land Speeders
  2. Heretic Legion Warband
  3. Guardian Defenders x 11
  4. Myrmidon Destructors x 6
  5. Nemesis Dreadknight
  6. Death Riders x 5
  7. Howling Banshees x 10
  8. Ork Boyz x 20
  9. Black Templar Crusader Squad x 10 & Marshall
  10. Panzer 38T

The game was pretty close, and had Ingotten slightly better cards in my last two turns, it may have been a different result, but who knows. Fantastic game and I learned that Logan Grimnar is pretty mean!

What I Am Creating

I published the latest episode of Edge of Empire

What I Am Spending

I had to buy a new screen for my Saturn 4 Ultra, my own fault, I forgot to clean it after a failed print

I also managed to get hold of the other sprues for the Field Ordnance Batteries, I had tried to get them from Tesco, but I got there just a bit too late and someone else had bought up all the copies, so I had to hit up eBay 🙁

So this means I can now have two of each weapon.

I bought Max Payne for Steam, I saw it for a really good price on Humble with my Humble Choice discount and decided to just go for it

I also got Bridge Constructor Portal

Stormhammer Super-Heavy Assault Tank

Of course he absolutely whipped my arse, but what else do you expect with Solar Auxilia

Was a great game and we met up with Dave and Chris there

For the evening we had a lovely kebab and a night of Cards Against Humanity, which was a lot of fun, and lead to a lot of laughs

The next day we returned to Warhammer World where I teamed up with Dave and his Dark Angels to play against Adam’s Death Guard

I took this 1500 points list

Crusade Primary Detachment

Legatine Command Section x 5

- Legate Marshall, Volkite serpenta, Power sword

Adam has a reputation as an extremely good player, and I found it to be a well earned reputation!

My army was mostly wiped out in turn 2, and at the end of the game, all of Dave’s Dark Angels had been destroyed, and all I had left were ten Lasriflemen, a Line Command Squad and a Legatine Command Squad who were hiding to maintain that LD10 with the Vox Interlinks

I ended up taking a nap in the car after the game cause I was utterly shattered, whilst the others played some more

After we arrived back at the AirBnB, we had a Chinese and played some Dungeons and Dragons together for the first time in person after 3 years of playing together

It’s was a lot of fun, but by midnight we were all utterly shattered and had to go to bed!

The next day after a McDonalds breakfast we headed back to Warhammer World where we did a tour of the Hall of Miniatures, which has changed a lot since last time I was there, I failed to find the Assassin yet again!

And then myself and the Mills brothers had a doubles games of 4k a side, in which I took this list for my 2K

Myself and Graham got a commanding lead as my Lasriflemen seized the objectives early on for the highest points.

We only got to turn 3 but it was a lot of fun nonetheless

What I Am Modelling

I had a busy and productive week!

I started off the week by finishing an Opel Blitz for my early war Germans

And then for my future late war Germans, a Sturmgeschütz III, one that Graham bought me last year!

I also painted some Heretic Troopers for the Trench. Crusade Heretic Legions

Used a painting scheme influenced by WWII Germany simply because they were as evil a group that ever existed.

And a Heretic General

After that I finished up painting 20 Tech Thralls for my Mechanicum

These models were 3D printed and I much prefer them to the plastic ones

I was also able to paint up a couple of Astra Militarium characters, yet another Commissar

And a Primaris Psyker

After that I painted up some Hearhtkyn Pioneers for the Leagues of Votann, which completed that Combat Patrol


So what’s up next?

  1. Blood Angels Land Speeders
  2. Heretic Legion Warband
  3. True Sons Havocs x 10
  4. Einhyr Hearthguard x 5
  5. Guardians Defenders x 11
  6. Myrmidon Destructors x 6
  7. Nemesis Dreadknight
  8. Death Riders x 5
  9. Howling Banshees x 10
  10. Ork Boyz x 20

What I Am Reading

I finished listening to Angron: The Red Angel by David Guymer which was ok, but felt a bit of a let down as Angron barely featured at all. Lots of good concepts but also so much missed potential.

After that I listened to Something Inside by Trevor Baxendale, which was ok, but the 8th Doctor getting amnesia is kind getting a bit dull now, I am Paul McGann can really act that very well, but it’s just too used

What Video Games I Am Playing

Not played that much which is disappointing but will try better next week!

What Achievements I Have Unlocked

Hell Let Loose (Steam)

Breaking the Geneva Convention

Kill an enemy medic while he is reviving someone.
16/02/2026
Death From Below

Destroy a vehicle with an AT mine
16/02/2026

What I Am Backing

The From Mesue to Volga, 1940-1942 project successfully funded and I should get the files sometime in March

Lindsay also backed the Cube Mod Carrier project by Txarli for me, I mentioned it looked cool, and couldn’t afford it and she backed it for me to pay her back later

What I Am Spending

At Warhammer World I bought myself a Leman Russ Strike Tank, some glue, another three painting handles and some pots of paint..

The tank is going to be built as a Demolisher, cause I like Demolisher cannons and they have proven quite useful in both 40K and 30k.

As for the painting handles, well I have a fair few of them already, but I want to get to 25 cause I am far too regularly painting 25 models at a time, this one gives me 24

I grabbed the latest issue of Combat Patrol to hopefully add a couple more Field Ordnance Batteries to the Astra Militarium

It was also Humble Choice week,- that bagged me
