Well I think we, being the gaming community, should come up with some guidelines for Indy tourneys that GW can choose to adopt if they see fit, or maybe can even be worked into a INAT touney checklist of sorts. We can all cry and moan about problems on the circuit, obviously there have been […]

Well I’m still brainstorming over the new orks since the drop of the FAQ a few days ago.  I’ve heard good things about burna drive-bys so I thought I’d work up a super aggro list.  While I’m sure it will do fine against mech and marines, long range standoff may be its undoing. Again this […]

I got a lot of comments on my Slitherguard recently, and everyone said they were a little lean for their namesakes, Tyrant Guard. I agree too, so I decided to beef them up to look like the bodyguards they are. I searched though my bits, and found some Carnifex torso plates that would work just […]

I thought I’d celebrate the recent Deff Rolla FAQ ruling with a walkthough of my Supa Battlewagons. When the Ork Battlewagon kit came out I knew I had to have a few. I opened the box up and furiously started assembling it.   When I was done I have to admit I was a little […]

Back a year or so ago I had a pretty good hybrid Battlewagon Nob Biker list going. Of course it worked good till the INAT game out and nerfed it. But now it’s back and with a few tweeks I think still competitive. The main tactic of the army is to either pincer with the […]

Well we were able to get more done on Warhound #1.  We’re working on the torso now, and while its not quite as hard as doing the legs, it’s still important to make sure everything lines up correctly. I also plan on going back and painting the interior. I just want to get the outside […]

Awhile ago during the scary days of Lash of Slaanesh, I set about making a sweet Daemon Prince model to lead my chaotic forces into battle.  What I thought would be just a simple conversion ended up turning into something more; Lor’Maxxim Lash Prince of Slaanesh.  To make my Lash Prince I used the classic […]

I had the pleasure of participating in an extremely well run GT called Cabin Fever back in January. One of the components of the tourney was a 75 question “pub quiz” style test. Now I know that kinda sounds harsh and brutally long, it actually wasn’t that bad. Each question is worth about 1/5 of […]

Well I couldn’t help myself. Being a long time follower of all things Chaotic, when the Forgeworld Chaos Reaver  Titan hit I just had to have it. But I was afraid that he would be a little lonely by himself in my display case so I bought two Warhounds to keep him company as well. […]

Hello again from Central Virginia, where the snow keeps falling so I keep modeling. I’m keeping steady so far with my Tyranid Waterbugz converting up some Slitherguard aka Tyrant Guard to keep my big bad leader bugs safe. This time I modeled them in the same style as my Slithercannons from before, but with a […]

Hey guys, well I was snowed in today so I managed to crank out some Hive Guard to match my Waterbugz theme. I’m tryin to have evverything look like its coming up out of the water, like they would have done during the first contact battle on Tyran Prime. I have a lot of metal […]

I’m back with part two of my Tyranid play tests. I’ve learned a lot so far about these guys and how they work.  So far I’ve been working with the swarm mentality, but after these last games I’m beginning to think that some spores may be necessary to take down Mech lists that are designed […]

Okay so this just hit, and you gotta admit its pretty funny. I’m sure it will go viral soon. For the record Spikey Bits does not agree with the war, the holocaust, natzis or their zombies.  But I do like satire….

So I had a chance to playtest my nids over the last week, and overall I’m very happy with their performance.  I’ve learned a lot and I think these guys really can do some damage to all comers, including Imperial Guard Mech. My first list variant went up against my Ork Mech Guard. You can […]

Well I’m putting the finishing touches on my Ork Guard army and getting ready to to battle this weekend in the Cabin Fever ’10 GT.  This event is put on by Rich Ditzler of Adventurers Guild Gaming in Harrisburg, PA.  For those of you that don’t know Rich, he is both a great guy and […]

Hey checkout all the great new Tyranid articles over at From The Warp. Inside the Hive Mind Its a great page of blog compilations from around the web, all dealing with the new release of the bugs. Be sure to check back here later this week 1/29 for my big Tyranid Playtest report. -MBG

Well I’m back again, taking a break from playtesting and converting up my Waterbugz, to take a closer look at the new big nasty Trygon.  I had the good fortune to purchase one from Forgewold a few years ago, but never got around to painting it. So now we can compare these two close up! […]

A long time ago in the midst of the rise of “Zillanids” I started my Tyranid army. One of the things I wanted to do was make my bugs look different that anyone elses. I had seen some people convert their Canifexes by mounting them on their short shaft of a tail, and remove the […]
