The past weekend it was Company of Legends, our twice yearly Horus Heresy Residential weekend that Edge of Empire run.
It was fun but exhausting, and I love doing it.
We managed to pull it off successfully, i always worry that I am less organised than I need to be, but Graham and Chris as usual were amazing.
I got to play four games over the weekend, with my Questoris Knights army list below

My first game was against Rob on Friday night, and his Mechanicum, which I lost, was in fact tabled.
My next game was the first main game of the day which I played against Ozzie and his Emperors Children and Mechanicum, I lost that but at least wasn’t my tabled!
My third game of the weekend saw me face Mark Frost and his daemons at long last, allowing him to claim the grand slam of beating all four Edge of Empire hosts with the army.
But I held my own ok I think.
My final game of the weekend saw me face off against Henry and his Emperors Childrens allied with Imperial Milita.
That was my most successful game, I did alright, but losing a couple of knights to an Assault Squad with Melts Bombs cost me the game.
The traitors won the weekend, probably because I was playing for the loyalists.
It was an awesome weekend and I cannot wait for September.
What I Am Modelling
With Company of Legends, not a lot got done!
I did have a build session on Tuesday night and got a bunch of terrain for my 15th table built. This is stuff from the Charadon which is going to supplement the Imperium terrain to make a full tables worth.
I then finished painting my Space Marine Primaris Supressors to add to the Ultramarines army.
At the same time I painted up some Thermo-Pipes.
And after that started work on an Ork Kommandoes Kill Team.
And I painted a Thermo-Exchanger Shrine at the same time, also for the Imperium box.
At the same time, I painted up some referees for Blood Bowl.
And late last night I finished off a Deredeo Dreadnought I bought at Ardhammer in January, although I think the guns are recasts, the actual Dreadnought seems fine, but the guns are just not quite right.
I am gonna keep it, I only paid £10 for it, but I need to keep a closer eye on things I buy at secondhand sales.
So what’s coming up next week?
- Corpse Grinder Cult x 15
- Blood Angels Primaris Lieutenant, Librarian in Phobos Armour & Assault Intercessors x 8
- Orruk Weirdnob Shaman
- Death Korps of Krieg Medusa x 2
- Morg N Thorg
- T’au Empire Breacher Squad x 10
- Fafnir Rann
- Ork Terrain
- Khorne Blood Warriors x 10
- Sicarian Infiltrators x 10
What I Am Reading
I have yet to pick up a book this week 🙁
But I have been listening to The Wolftime by Gav Thorpe which is really good.
What Video Games I Am Playing
Not a great deal just a daily game of Halo Infinite for the most part to get the points.
What Tabletop Games Am I Playing
Other than those at Company of Legends, none.
What I Am Creating
Two more battle reports were published, issues 22 and 23!
Now that all the tutorial missions are done, I am going to be moving to a new schedule, Wednesday will be Imperium and Saturday will be something else.
I am kinda thinking the first something else will be a Horus Heresy very small Zone Mortalis game.
What I Am Spending
I did manage to pick up Watchmen: Ultimate Cut in 4K from the Microsoft Store for £3.99 which is awesome!
Also when at the North East Model Centre on Thursday, I bought another Painting Handle!
