Sup Spikey Bits, longtime lurker, sometimes contributor JStove here, and today I want to bring you something nobody can ever get enough of… Battle reports!

This is a great article about building a better devastator unit, which in 6th is kinda still undecided.Well unless everyone gets Flakk missiles all of a sudden, then the choice maybe pretty clear! This is, of course, a guest post from Kirby at 3++, and I think it’s really good at breaking down the numbers […]

Today I have another look at the series of Grey Knights tactics articles that I posted up back in October. And trust me when I say that all of these tactics are valid, and some of them were even used against me at Adepticon 2012! It seems everywhere you go these days it’s Grey Knights […]

Here is another custom FRAG! conversion from YepImadork. This guy’s definitely got some character, eh?  I for one have no idea how he opens doors, unless he just saws them in half, lol.  Jump below the fold for all the details.

Mechanized Imperial Guard has been a strong build pretty much since it’s release. I started running it shortly thereafter with my Looted Guard, and did very well with the army over the past few years (most recently going 6-1 and winning the American Team Championships). In this  new competitive era of win/ loss and Primary Secondary Tertiary objectives at tournaments, I’ve had […]

So last time we talked a little about the current Grey Knights Meta.  Now lets take a look at some anti Grey Knights tactics, and see how I’ve defeated them using Blood Angels.
