  1. Thought they did a set recently on the 6's for 40k?
  2. Big question is what number are the sylvaneth dice symbols on?
  3. Just sent payment for both of us, team of Paul Buckler and Joe Hadfield.
  4. This is a project I have been considering for a while now, Minotaurs. Or to be correct using the AOS name Bullgors. I used a Nurgle themed list at the start of AOS and took it to SCGT, it was very good at absorbing hits but had not really heavy hitters of it's own. I added a unit of Bullgors with great weapons to try to help out in this and they worked great. So I was toying with the idea of a Bullgor army for a while. Then when the Godbeasts book arrived a formation appeared, The Bloodscorched Bulltribe! Its a nifty formation of 3 units of Bullgor and 3 Ghorgons. All get mark of khorne and other benefits (including +1 wound per model). Not many models so a fairly easy project to complete. SCGT cost of 10 pools so 90 left for my army, gives me a decent force. I have spare points after the formation, so I added in a few extras. A bloodsectrator is amazing with these guys, +1 attack makes a massive difference, and the immunity to battleshock helps as well. Also a bloodstoker to boost the charge is a cheap extra and fits the Khorne theme. I needed some magic, so I added a bray shaman to the list, the trouble was they all looked a bit puny in comparison to the bullgor. I was looking at conmversions when silver tower dropped, and the new Ogroid is a great fit size wise. I use him as a Shaman rather than his actual scroll though as that is more of a match theme wise. Along with him I needed a large monster to summon. A warshrine was suggested, but alas its not a monster, so a giant was my next choice. A bloodletter Herald to summon was my final inclusion to use up my pools. So there we have it, the Tribe is assembled. I have played a few games with it, and may well take it to Rain of Stars in August, if clash gets updated with the formation cost. Will add up some Battle reports soon to show how they are performing.
  5. The sneaky Orruk spiked the Fyreslayer ale, and whilst they fought to the last man the Green tide prevailed! The magama dragon is pretty tasty, he did a lot of damage. Ironjaws are a solid army, nothing seems too nasty it just all works well.
  6. So just booked my ticket for this one, anyone else attending? Tournament pack is here Have been to the doubles events for AOS, but really looking forwards to this one.

  9. A classic model, I am using as a battle wizard for my dispossesed army. The really old models seem to suit AOS well.
  10. Ok so many moons ago, there were some awesome dwarf models called doomseekers. Longbeards will remember them fondly I am sure. Well they had been sat gathering dust on my shelf for far too long, and when I saw the Hearthguard bezerkers, I thought maybe I had found a use for them. So my project began. I kit bashed some Vulkite Bezerkers along with the spares from my Auric Hearthguard to fill out the unit into 10 models. They actually fitted in pretty well, no noticeable scale issues. I wanted a leader for my army and the Magmadroth is such a nice model I couldn't help myself, so a Runefather joined their ranks. The kit is really good as I was also able to make a Rinesmiter and Runeson as well. Slowly I built up a reasonable force adding 2 units of Vulkite Bezerkers, and 1 of each of the remaining characters, Grimwrath Bezerker, Runemaster and Battlesmith. The quality and detail in these kits is amazing and i would recommend them to anyone. Finally I wanted some variety so I added some converted prosecutors. Simple head and weapon swaps made them easy to blend in, plus I had loads from various starter set swaps I had done when AOS was released. My army was really taking shape now, I just needed soem bases, and as you can see from the pictures, I chose an ice theme to contrast the orange slayers. I got these from darkarts, they are actually lava bases, but painted with an ice effect they work pretty well I think . So thats my Fyreslayers, they kept me busy for 3 months, around 100 SCGT pool choices. How have they done on the battlefield? Well in true slayer fashion they have died with honour! Sometimes in victory, sometimes in defeat, I will pop back and write a batrep for a game soon so you can see them in action Paul
