What's On Your Table: Armies on Parade Diorama
What's On Your Table: To submit your work, please send up to 8 pics to natfka@live.com
This diorama won my local Armies on Parade. It is a non-canonical envisioning of the Blood Angels departing from Baal to embark out into the Imperium after the death of Sanguinius. They are being led by Azkaellon who is carrying Sanguinius’ Spear of Telesto. Non-canonical in that the Storm Talon, Land Raider Redeemer, & Stormraven did not exist yet. The Mk VII armor is stated to have been created at the tail end of the Heresy though the jump pack might be temporally displaced as well. The motivation was after reading Fear to Tread where Librarian Kano envisioned the death of the Blood Angels Primarch. We all know what happened to the Legions after the Heresy, so this was my take on the Blood Angels finally coming to grips with what the future held and taking solidarity in the idea they are proving their loyalty to the Imperium.

Reaching Out: Saint Andrews Wargaming- Congratulations.
Of course I love Blogs, and I often spend free time late into the evenings reading through them, even ones not related to wargaming. So I thought it would be a great idea to start posting up when I find something interesting or just a shout out to other sites that I tend to read.
A List of 40k Going Away
After a huge selection of models that seem to be part of Spring Cleaning for Games Workshop, there are also some models that are on the 40k side of things as well. The odd one here that I find, is that the Fenris Warzone: Curse of the Wulfen is listed as no longer available. Hopefully it's going to go paperback.

Faeit 212 Turned 6.
Well the end of March is here, and with it the site turns 6 years old. For those dedicated readers that may have noticed today, I actually took a day off from the site, except for answering a few questions.
So I played Twilight Imperium for 8 hours last night, woke up to Easter, and celebrated a family birthday. Overall a good day off.
Its back on, with business back to normal.
