Five Reasons Why I’m Still Mad About The Imperial Guard Codex

Posted on by JcDent

Hatred is, after all, the Emperor’s greatest gift for humanity. And ya’ll kids know that unca JcDent has enough bile, vitriol and foul temper for two racist uncles. I had previously written my wishlist/hatelist for the upcoming Codex: Astra Militarum. That book has since been released, so here I am on the road again, bitching about the new Imperial Guard codex. Codex: Astra Militarum fixed a few problems from the Index, but not all. It introduced a few more. Here they are.

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 Is Coming!

Posted on by JcDent

I had played actual Battlefleet Gothic over Vassal and I have played the first Battlefleet Gothic: Armada. That game was super pretty, but also hampered by the real-time approach to things.

This forced Forge World to release its own standalone rulebook. However, Alan Bligh, the lead writer for the project passed away from cancer a few months before 8e, and it was a real scramble to get it published. Took them half a year, but now we have a book. And here is my copy of Age of Darkness rulebook!

If you want to know more about what I think about the Horus Heresy ruleset, I have written an article about it!

Repulse the Primaris Repulsor with a Custom Turret

Posted on by JcDent

Last year, I bough Repulsor, the aptly named flying Primaris Landraider mostly to build it the way I want it, to make it less ugly. This mostly involved totally replacing the God-awful turret with something else. And I mostly succeeded! I did all the painting in one month, as per rules of Something Awful Oath thread. I was aiming to hit all of the monthly challenges it presents, so details are to follow. It took that many pictures simply because I could get more points that way for Show Your Work challenge.
