I had made it to Warhammer World! Before telling the rest of this story though, I'll pause to show you the army properly. The photos from the battles are mostly from a distance with the army spread out in whatever formation I thought was tactically best for the mission. These army shots on the other hand give the full effect, which is well worth a look. I took these photos at the end of the weekend before packing up to go home. This was my first opportunity to step back and appreciate the army that I had worked so hard to finish. </div>

Two weeks after being in Sweden I received a letter under my door. My rough google translation read that my boxes had arrived but I had to pay <b>hundreds</b> of dollars to customs even though it was my own stuff and it was all second hand. I had no idea how to argue it so I paid it. My boxes were not delivered to my apartment but to a little tobacco shop at the local shops. This is how Sweden does mail.<br />

I picked them up a few at a time and walked 1.3 km home (taking four trips all up). My model box had not fared well. It looked like it had been kicked and dropped and tossed and rammed and shaken galore. When I picked it up it even sounded bad. It is not a sound I ever want to hear again.<br />

Even though the box was double thickness and the magnets were strong, everything was loose. My models were a mess. Everything was chipped, dented and broken. Everything. I was heartbroken. I now didn't own a single painted model and my cavalry was smashed too. I put them aside not wanting to look or think about it. It was too depressing. An entire box of all my best paints and supplies had not arrived at all. Nothing in Sweden was going to plan. My wife had said we made a mistake coming and I was starting to think that she was right.<br />

I started taking a few photos thinking I might be able to put an insurance claim in but gave up as the devastation set in. I should note here that looking back at the photos some models don't look that bad, but these shots don't capture how scratched all the paint was. Everything needed repainting.<br />

I just stopped taking photos. It was gut wrenching.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
A stressful few weeks later my hobby box arrived out of nowhere – in average shape but I
was glad just to see it. Weeks went on and I was starting to get concerned that
my first boxes (the tanks, toys and cloths shipped by sea), had not rocked up. I had posted them to my work
but had not seen a parcel slip. One afternoon whilst in the photocopier room
at work I found a bundle of mail. In it were three letters addressed to me!
They were letters from the postal service telling me to pick up my boxes or they would
be returned-to-sender. The return date was that day!!! I frantically rang the post company and after being on hold for an hour got through. My boxes had just left Sweden that morning to go back to Australia. My models were gone but more importantly all of the
cloths for my 9 month old daughter had gone with them. I tracked the parcels to
the Netherlands and tried to get them returned. I spend hours on the phone
between companies but it turned out that the only people that had the authority
to send them back to Sweden was Australia Post. I stayed up until 3am to call
Australia Post during working hours. They were not helpful and would do nothing
about the situation. It was a dark time. I remember sitting up at 3am after the call; my pay was much less than back in Australia
and clothes were much more expensive, I wasn’t sure how I was going to make it
work, and my wife really wanted to go home. <o:p></o:p></div>

As time went on we found second hand stores for clothes and slowly I began pulling my chipped and broken models out of their box. Finally, on one particularly hopeless day I sat down and picked up my paint brush and painted some lions. <span style="text-align: center;">I remember how bad I felt at the time. I thought about how my son was getting no help with his autism, while in Australia he had a number of therapists (for which there wasn't out of pocket expense). I was having trouble with my work contact, I couldn't get a bank account and there were a billion other things not going to plan. I mention this only because sitting down to paint these lions really cheered me up. It held my focus, quieted my mind and for that hour or so life was calm. At the end I was happy with the lions. A</span>mong <span style="text-align: center;">the billion things I couldn't get done, here was something I could.</span></div>

Soon after, I pulled out my rough riders and decided to fix them. The
repair work was symbolic and gave me hope that the trip was salvageable. It was heartwarming to see models that I thought were beyond repair looking ready for battle
again. It wasn’t long before I started dreaming about hopping over to the UK
for a game.<br />

I should point out that the Macharian Thunder Guard are a veteran cavalry division made up of the last surviving remnants of numerous cavalry regiments. This means there are a large variety of uniforms throughout the force. The exception to this are riding lances and the genetically bred horses which are standardised 'Macharian' style across the force. I imagine that an effort is made to form riding troops (units) from the same original regiments. This means that I usually make five guys in the same uniform. In the photo above I'm seeing how four different units look side by side.</div>

This is where I was up to in September after being in Sweden for 3 months. <b style="text-align: center;">The Great Cavalry Distraction of 2017 </b><span style="text-align: center;">had ushered in some hobby routine so it was about time to start some new redcoats. With that thought, </span>I found myself dreaming again about hopping over to the UK for a game. I semi-casually mentioned how a Throne of Skulls weekend at Warhammer World was one of my life long dreams. I imagined it would be the ‘friendly’ gaming atmosphere that suited me. Then something happened that I never could have predicted... She said "When"... I said "November"... She said "OK". </div>

They vomited and vomited and vomited everywhere. To make matters worse a fuse blew in the apartment and the power went. From Prague, I talked my wife through how to change the fuse but it blew again a few times so there was a bigger issue. One night my wife rang me and begged me to come home early. It was not going well. In the end I didn’t come home early (it was too hard to make happen) but it was made very clear that couldn’t go away and leave her home with the kids in a 'strange country' again. I went to cancel my tickets for Throne of Skulls but I was not going to get my flights or accommodation back so I just left it.</div>

I was crushed and the painting stopped. I did convert a crusader just for fun but there was zero motivation to do much else.<br />

At the end of October it was my daughters first birthday. My
wife was upset to not be spending it with our parents, family and friends in Australia.
I had to find some way of making it special….. cue a last minute trip to Disneyland
Paris. It cost an arm and a leg but went down a treat. <o:p></o:p><br />

With one week to go before the event, the organizers emailed me back and said I could not bring my

With one week left I needed to sub-out the cavalry and find an extra 47 'power level' in my list! My LR Demolisher was painted so it slotted in and the rest was filled by more men and lots of characters. </div>

I stayed up until 2-3am every night that week painting and was pushing a full load at work during the days. On Thursday the 8th (the day before my flight) I got home from work early at 3pm and painted all night. I was still painting
at 10am the next day. I stopped, and spent less than an hour working out how to put my
models into my case. I used my magnet and metal plate method that had failed me to Sweden. This time, as carry-on baggage, my models would not leave my side and I was sure that would make the difference.<br />
<br />
I had 20 minutes to pack my cloths and gaming equipment before
<b>running</b> to the train station and heading to the airport. I got on the train and could not believe what was actually happening. My worries at that point were getting my army through security at the airport and onto the plane as carry-on luggage, then finding my two trains in the UK to get to Nottingham. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I am pleased to write that both me and my army arrived in the UK safely.<br />

On the train to Nottingham I struggled to keep my eyes open but was paranoid that I would miss my stop. I finally got to my tiny hotel room at around 11pm. I placed my bags carefully on my bed, laid out my army to inspect it, and pulled out my bush to finish the last touches.</div>

I have no recollection of what time I got into bed. As I laid there I thought about all that I had done to get to where I was. I thought about all the things that had worked against this coming together. It was completely, ridiculously, unlikely that I had pulled this off. But that was the thing - I HAD pulled this off. Having been wake for well over 40 hours, I was utterly exorcised but so excited. Strange thoughts drifted through my mind; I had started this army exactly 20 years ago; After being around on the far side of the globe I was bringing my army of 'veterans' back to their home; How many battles had I fought with these guys? How badly had I wanted to play them here? Had I taken that job in Sweden and gone through everything just to get here? God, that's a crazy thought. I had no answers but I drifted off to sleep <i>knowing</i> that this was going to be one of the greatest weekends of my life.<br />

Being married with young kids, along with having a job that is hard to leave at work, means that finding opportunities to game can be really tough. In the past it has been the norm that I will organise a 'game day' with my mates and it will be cancelled because someone’s kid gets sick or someone’s wife pulls the pin on it. It happens and we move on. It makes the time we do play special. It is probably why we take photos, blog and celebrate the games that we play so much (thanks Muppet). This epic tail (over a few posts) is about that ultimate 'no holds barred' battle between real life and gaming. This time however, I set the stakes higher than ever before. This is the story of one man battling against extremes odds to play a game of Warhammer on the other side of the world.<br />

I visited Warhammer World back in 2009 during a quick work trip to the UK. It was great. No, it was awesome. <i>“How cool would it be to one day come
back to the UK and play a game with my own army?”</i> I thought to myself. It was
an impossible dream. How would I even get an army from Australia to the UK? No, it's ridiculous. I was engaged and had no kids at the time but even then I knew it
was a ridiculous dream. This year that dream became a reality.</div>

Last year I was working as an academic and scientist at a university
in Australia. I lacked a permanent position and my scientific brilliance was not being recognised in any
way. I decided to change that by getting in touch with a professor in Sweden who was working at one of the most prestigious labs in my field. I saw that he was advertising a research position and I
thought this would be a good way of getting my CV under his nose. The response
I was looking for was <i>“Sorry you didn’t get the job but yes I’d love for you to
work with us on a project...”</i>. I mentioned my plan to the wife but didn’t actually
do anything about it. Then one Sunday I went into work to finish something off and I
remembered about the<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>position. I checked
it but it had closed that morning so the opportunity had been missed. But wait.
The deadline was in Sweden and I was in Australia. It wasn’t closed - I still
had 2 hours!<br />

With no time to think about it I hurriedly put together an
application and sent it off! When I got home I triumphantly told my wife how I
had managed to get the application together in just 2 hours to meet the deadline.
To my surprise she was not amused about my superhuman deed but was upset that I
had applied for a job in Sweden without properly discussing it. I hadn’t
thought about it like that.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i>“I can
always say no”</i> I said, <i>“A</i><i>nd as if I would get it anyway.”</i><br />

My wife was a firm no. I understood but struggled to pass up
the opportunity. Then I found out that my contract was not being renewed in
Australia. Backed into a corner, my wife agreed so I took the job. Later she would
change her mind about every week or so and decide that she wasn’t going at all
for a day or two every fortnight but that was part of the fun.<br />

So I was moving to Sweden for maybe a year, maybe longer. I
would be just a short hop away from the birthplace of Warhmmer and a large
group of my blogger friends. Not only that, but I might have an army with me! I

This was a small force that I had penciled out as a fun tournament list during 6th and 7th ed. Painted up finished I had 30 riflemen, a platoon and company command squad, 20 veterans, a tank, rough riders and an earthshaker. The rest had been started and just needed a good push. Of course I also had loads of models with older paint jobs but they were a bit rough.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">Three months before leaving I shipped three boxes to Sweden by sea knowing that would take about 3 months to arrive. One box of kids clothes, one box of kids toys and one box of model tanks and hobby supplies for me!</span></div>

With those posted it was back to the infantry. <span style="text-align: start;">To get many models into the boxes and hold them safely in place I decided to magnetise them to metal base-plates. I made cardboard stands so I could fit several layers of models in a single box. The magnets were </span>2mm high and <span style="text-align: start;">10mm wide so they fit between the base tab insert. I secured them with DAS clay and then once it was all dried I added superglue which soaked into the clay making it rock hard. I have never had a magnet come off. They stuck to the tray well. I could shake the tray upside down vigorously with no movement of the models at all.</span></div>

Hello Blogging world! I have pushed my way past the scattered piles of half written blog posts to finally hit the publish button on my blog again. As always I have enjoyed reading many of your posts but have not been as much of an active participant as in the past. I have missed that and so am finally back at it.<br />

My last post was June last year. At that time my wife was a couple of months pregnant with our second baby. We always have complicated pregnancies and have lost a few in the past so from about July onward things started getting stressful. I still had some hobby time and even a few games in with my favourite gaming partner (<a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/04769460904008281915" target="_blank">Muppet</a>); <a href="https://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2017/01/091-battle-report-ghaz-wants-his-boy.html" target="_blank">Sharpe fought of loads of Orks</a> earning himself glory and a few fresh scars.<br />

I am planning to stay for a year but have written my contract for two to leave the option open. I start in July and will be living in Stockholm. The first hit to my hobby will be that I can’t take everything, a) because it will be expensive to shift and b) we’ll be living in Stockholm so I am expecting way less ‘living space’ than I am use to in Australia. I figured I had two choices; 1) take a little bit of a few armies or 2) take one decent size army to work on and game with. I quickly came to realisation that I couldn’t go to Europe and not take my Praetorians so I am going with option 2. Even still I can’t take everything....<br />

So being that I can't take everything I am planning to fill my Battle Foam P.A.C.K. 1520XL with a pretty decent force of infantry, tanks, artillery and cavalry. A few Blood Angels might join in for the ride and maybe a knight titan or two but space will be tight. I'll work on all of the models that I am taking before I go and it will give me loads to work on while I'm there. I might get the odd game in and maybe even take some models with me over to the UK for a visit.<br />

I spent the day drawing up a few custom foam trays to help fit some of my less standard models. At least I have time to order them and plan what I will pack. At four months out the whole thing feels like I am planning a massive invasion. Invasion Europe. Let’s call it <i><b>War Plan Red</b></i> after the US 1920’s plan for war with the UK and because my army is red!<br />

With my mates the joke that I am 'invading Europe' has a history. An infamous Risk game 12 years ago saw me becoming ‘loud and animated’ after conquering Europe but being unable to hold it. My mate's wife could apparently hear me from her car when she pulled into the drive way. This became known as ‘the Europe incident’ and my mates jibe me with “it’s not Europe” if I am ever unhappy or angry about something.<br />

As I said, I am hoping to hop from Sweden over to England at some stage and I am so excited and the prospect of being able to bring an army with me. Raiding English gaming stores will be tempting too after having to pay the ‘Australian premium’ on models.<br />
<br />
Over the coming weeks I’ll start posting my progress preparing my invasion force. To my Europe friends keep in touch and I might be able to meet up with you in person!<br />

Tally ho chaps,<br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Lieutenant Richard Sharpe of the 95th Praetorian Rifles, Imperial Guard, stood at attention in Major-General (Margrave) Chretzo Sigenandus’ command tent. The young lieutenant faced the old stern general seated at his desk, while Colonel Ackland stood casually off to the side interjecting from time to time with remarks that were more whimsical than of any strategical importance. Sharpe looked taken back on receiving his mission. “He specially requested me?” uttered Sharpe with genuine surprise. Ackland chuckled mostly to himself while twisting the end of his moustache “Yes my dear boy, Major Sutherland - you know, tall grumpy chap, big scar down the right cheek. He requested you lead the escort.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“Aye sir, I know em” replied Sharpe, “It was me that gave em the scar!”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“Arrr yes” continued Ackland looking off thoughtfully, “And a dammed ungentlemanly blow too I must say. Well Sharpy, all I can say is if I were cut off 30 miles behind the line surrounded by angry Green Skins I’d want the dirtiest fighter in this man’s army to come rescue me too, ha ha!”</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The General shifted in his chair and grumbled, giving off the feeling that he wished he was somewhere else. “Hmmm errr, well Sharpe, you have your orders, if there are no questions you are dismissed.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“Aye sir” the young Lieutenant saluted and about faced to leave when the general added “Oh and Sharpe remember I need the intelligence that Major Sutherland has so do not go starting any foolhardy duels on the trip back. Sutherland’s from the ‘old school’ and cannot be expected to mind his manners with a commoner raised from the ranks, so make sure you mind yours.” Sharpe stopped but did not turn to face the old general. “Don’t worry Sir,” he replied gruffly, “I’ll do my duty.” </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Lieutenant Sharpe exited the tent with such disquietude that he cannoned straight into a ‘tin belly’ cavalry officer who was about to enter. The large Brimlock heavy dragoon was an immovable object and Sharpe staggered clumsily to the side. “Wow, steady there… arr, Sharpe isn’t it?” The Brimlock officer queried. “Who’s asking” Sharpe replied finding his feet. The officer persisted, “I wonder if I might I give you some advice - lieutenant to lieutenant?” Before Sharpe could reply the officer continued shrewdly “Soap. By the Emperor’s holly name you stink horribly man - it is quite ungentlemanly.” Sharpe gave a half grin “Nar, don’t use it. The Green Skins can smell a rosy officer a mile off, me however; I have ta tap em on the shoulder before they know I’m coming. I’ll sleep in the dirt and stay alive.” The Brimlock officer looked appalled and then laughed shaking his cuirassier breastplate “I’d rather be dead, ho ho!” With that, the Brimlock officer past Sharpe and entered he command tent. “Be careful what you wish for tin man” Sharpe muttered to himself as he went to find his men. Sharpe knew he had many failings as an officer and a gentleman, but he was good at leading his men and killing Orks and that was all <i>his duty</i> ever required.</span><br />

His plan was to wait for Sutherland and his men to retreat up the valley and then cut down the Orks that pursued them. All was going to plan until another large body of Green Skins charged up the valley cutting off Sutherland's escape route. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>[This game was a 600 point a side 'Kill team' skirmish which meant that each model moved and fought independently. We didn't use any difficult terrain in the game to keep it fast paced. We did however measure vertical and horizontal distance when moving up and over the rock formations. This worked really well on my terrain] </i></span><br />

Sharpe was shot again, this time in the leg. As he clambered back to his feet an Ork ran at him to finish him off. Sharpe swung his hand cannon around and blew it's head off as it charged in. Amazing shooting Sharpe, but these Orks really have it in for you!<br />

Guardsman Cornish heroically shot one Ork, then another as it charged him and downed a third with his bayonet. Major Sutherland unceremoniously beheaded him from behind using both of his swords. Cornish will posthumously be nominated for a medal for valour. </div>

Sharpe rolled onto his back holding his wounds. He lifted his head expecting to see five Orks about to butcher him when instead three mighty cavalry Lancers leaped over him to engage the Green Skins. Another two rode around the back of the small hill to join the fight.

I considered giving him a rifle, then a pistol, but finally I thought a shot gun suited his character well enough. It reminds me of a twin barrelled flintlock pistol and has the feel of the 'Nock Gun' that Sharpe used occupationally. </div>

It is not great for finishing things but I do get there eventually. I like to keep my hobby as 'me time' so I place no constants on what I work on during an evening or weekend off. I run with enthusiasm rather than a disciplined plan and that keeps me coming back to do more. It does make blogging hard because I tend to wait until I have done enough on something to blog about it instead of blogging about one weekends worth on something that I won't get back to for a few weeks. With that in mind here is a selection of things that I have been playing with recently.<br />
<br />
First up, my wind generator from ‘The Last Stand at Glazer’s Creek’ that <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/12/windmill-from-last-stand-at-glazers.html" target="_blank">I first posted on last December </a>has moved forward a bit. Here is shot of where it was when I last posted on it and where it is now .<br />

Not that I am short on terrain, but I am a real sucker for old FW terrain pieces. When I saw a guy in my Buy-Swap-Sell group parting with these FW sandbag defences I threw him an offer. I initially never heard back and thought they had gone but after a few weeks he contacted me and said that the sale had fallen through and I could have them if I was still interested, How could I say no? </div>

I have been on a terrain building bout recently working on my <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/12/windmill-from-last-stand-at-glazers.html" target="_blank">old school wind generator</a> and <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2016/04/terrian-building-my-quest-for-better.html" target="_blank">a small forest of trees</a>. I have always wanted to make some big rock pillars and cliff faces for my terrain set as well. Thus, it was finally time to get a hot foam cutter and give carving foam a go!<br />
<a name='more'></a><b><span style="font-size: large;">The Back Story</span></b><br />
This story actually starts with nothing related to hobby or gaming at all. Recently I finished my (long overdue) PhD. I had a rough run with project changes, supervisor changes and other issues. This meant that my 3 to 4 year PhD dragged out to about 6 years when I finally handed it up. But the good news is that it came back from my examiners with top marks and no changes - which is kind of a big deal in science. Then at my graduation I took out the best thesis award - a cool thing to put in my CV but it also came with a relatively small cash prize of $500. In order to get through the end of my PhD with no grant money, no scholarship, no income, and having a kid, mortgage, Uni tuition and all the adult stuff, I had to make sacrifices by selling off a heap of my 'pre marriage' toys. This included my cool MX-5, music equipment and a selection of models (I managed to hold on to all of my retro stuff including all of my Praetorians and Necrons). This is all relevant back story because knowing how rough that was, my wife was more than happy for me to convert all of my prize into hobby funds! "You earned it" she said.<br />

I haven't spent the lot but I have picked up a few cool things. First was a massive second-hand Battle Foam bag. I got a smaller PACK GO bag years ago and I use it all the time. I had been finding it a little small in recent times so when I saw this bag go up in local Buy-Swap-Sell group I snapped it up.<br />

So far I am just trying to get the rough shape then I will add texturing later. I'll also try to add a few platforms so models can climb the cliff but I am mostly winging it at this stage.</div>
<br />
So that has been my adventures carving foam so far. It is way way easier than I thought it would be. I know lots of people make their own hot wire cutters but after using my two I think buying a proper set was definitely worth it.<br />

Thanks for stopping by folks,<br />

From my younger days with Warhammer 40K I remember seeing many battles fought on what looked like wide grassy fields. I appreciate that Napoleonic and earlier real battles might have looked like this but it was not an environment that I saw much of where I was and so I struggled to connect with it.<br />

Thus, a long term goal of mine has been to make terrain that I <i>could</i> connect to - such as environments that I was use to seeing in Australia. I have created all sorts of things over the years but now I am at a point that my hobby skills (and pockets) are at a place that I can probably have a better attempt at it then I ever have before. <br />

I think that a big part of making wargaming tables look good is tress. I have wanted to improve my tress for a while and so over the last few months I have been dabbling with a few tree projects. This post is going to be all about those endeavours and while nothing is completely finished I now have a lot of stuff that is almost there. </div>
<br />
Before I start with my hobby work lets all get on the same page. I wanted gum tress, rocks (rock pilers/cliffs) and palm tress. <i>"Wait, palm trees? but they don't fit with that arid Australian environment?" </i>Yeah, nar they do. Here is what I had in my head...<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Finally Succeeding with Gum Trees</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Ok, time for a story. My palms were starting to get there but this idea of gum trees were still nagging me. In the end after lots of internet research I grabbed some wire, plaster and flock and had a go at gum trees. It took the whole weekend to made two and a half gum trees. So less than a forest but they looked good. Scratch that. - they looked really good. I am devastated that this all went down right when my old phone died, so I don't have any photos. Probably best though as it was a really slow process that was very painful. After I had finally finished four trees I got talking to an other Aussie on the net who seemed to be far more experienced at this than me. I was pretty much following his instructions exactly but somehow he seemed to be churning out tress 10 or 20 times quicker than me. My interest moved from how he was doing it to why he was making so many trees. Why...Because he was selling them! For about $30AU I could get what was taking me two full days to do. I made a few more and brought a bunch of his until I ended up with about two dozen gum trees. Here is how they look.</div>

And that is the lot of them. My trees are coming along nicely and they 'work' with my big wind generator. I still hadn't captured big rock formations like in my original photos though. It was at this point that I brought a hot foam cutting kit for that purpose... I'll tell you about those adventures next week. </div>
Thanks for checking out where I am up to with my wargming trees.<br />

There has been some sporadic hobby time in there but nothing made it to the blog yet. With this on and off hobby time my desk became a bit of a dumping ground. Eventually it hit the critical level of messiness where it was simply too much effort to sit down and do anything there. Not only was it a cluttered mess but the desktop board </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">had bowed badly because I hadn't put a support beam under it when I build it. I always planned to add it but never got around to it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Last night after a particularly hard week of work I looked at the sad state of my hobby space and decided it was time for a literal and metaphoric fresh start.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">At this point I went off mission! The back of my desk was hard to utilize because of the low top. There was not a lot of room there and it was hard to see what was hiding in the back. So running with an idea I built a lower shelf at the back. I used some scrap wood which happened to be the same colour as my desk.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">White Dwarf 222, of June 1998, featured a battle report adaptation of the Battle of Rorke's Drift - best known from the film ‘Zulu!’ Naturally,
this pitted a platoon of the then newly released Praetorian Imperial Guard against a group
of savage Orks who came at the Imperial defenders in a number of waves. I
always loved this battle report for the way it leant on an historical event
without making it a straight out recreation in 40k. The exaggeration and satire
blended with the Gorkamorka vogue captivated me and even now, 18 years later, I enjoy
flicking through that battle report.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">One weekend after a particularly stressful week and a long hobby dry patch, I </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">yet again </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">found myself flicking through good old WD 222. Suddenly with great impetus (and complete disregard for my long list of unfinished projects), I stormed off to my shed followed curiously by my little helper (now 2.5yo). After a long rummage we returned to dump a pile of bits onto one side of the dining room table and a bucket of Duplo onto the other. While the little man built Duplo, I set to work re-envisioning the windmill from Glazer’s Creek.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First, I knew I did not want it to be exactly the same as the Glazer’s Creek windmill but still capture the original feel. I wanted mine to be a little more ‘Imperial’ than ‘Orky’ but still very ‘scrap yard’. I figured a good rusty paint job would help with that look. Additionally, I wanted it to look purposeful so I decided to make it look like a wind generator. As well as feeling more sci-fi, there would be opportunities to have missions around capturing or destroying it as it might be powering a settlement, las defence guns or something else of importance. It seems that prototypical wind generators have three blades so that would be an important element. I also wanted some platforms and a ladder but as for the rest I was winging it!</span></div>

And that is pretty much where I am up to at the moment. I still have rivets to add and I want 'things' on the platforms too. Stuff that could be equipment for the generator, control panels, machinery and that sort of thing. I have another side platform with a defence gun to add as well.</div>

I used three magnet
sizes; 1x1mm, 2x1mm and 2x2mm. I also have 1mm and 2mm drill bits. I went out a
got a new pair of drill bits just for this and I was grateful once I started. Sharp drills make it easier to get clean crisp holes so the magnets go in snug and are easy to glue in place. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I started by removing all of the parts from the sprue and
cleaning them up. I glued the legs together, the front and back torsos together
and the two parts of the arms but left the heads, torsos, legs, arms and hands all separate from each other. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I drilled into the leg piece with my 2mm drill, then interested a 2x2mm magnet.</div>

It is really really really important to get the polarities
of the magnets the same. After the first magnet went in I made sure the other
legs matched this polarity and that the adjoining torsos were the opposite. I
also kept the same alignment for the join at the neck and head so the magnets
all kept eachother together. <o:p></o:p></div>

The hands looked a little difficult because the wrists are
about 1mm wide. In reality it wasn't too bad because you only need enough space
to glue the 1x1mm magnet on and then you can drill a recess up into the arm for
the adjoining magnet. Here is a bunch of photo of one of the hands.</div>

There is a 1x1mm magnet in the neck and a 2x2mm magnet in the torso under the neck. If this one was the reverse polarity to the leg-waist one it tended to flip over, so I kept them all the same.</div>

There are 1x1mm magnets in the arms and 2x1mm magnets in torso. These torso ones were hard to keep in place because the neck and waist magnets wanted to pull these ones horizontal. I had to hold them in with a tooth pick until the super glue dried. In future I will do these ones first. </div>

There are 1x1mm magnets in both sides of the wrist. The only thing that was tricky here was getting the depth of the arm magnet right. I only drilled a little bit at a time and kept dry fitting it until I had the right depth. A little fiddly but not too difficult. </div>

Here is one of the survivors (unarmoured with only a shard of stone). Because there are so many arms you can experiment placing the shoulder-arm magnet at different angles. This guy has his arm out to hold the lantern but I have lots of other arm positions too. Below you can see that I should have made the shoulder join deeper into the torso as the joint sticks out a bit. My later ones were much better.</div>

Here is another survivor. I have fully magnetised this armour kit which has loads of extra heads and hands. It will be great mixing and matching them with the other armour sets. </div>

I can't do much to smooth out the neck and shoulder joins unfortunately. For the other kits the survivors are wearing clothes so these parts will not be so notable. </div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Gents, this one is a double blog post, so be sure to
checkout the work in progress post for this tank <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/painting-up-old-demolisher.html" target="_blank">here</a>. As always, comments are
always welcome. Seeing that the Preatorians were 'never' on campaign in the
Orpheus Sector (thanks to the Ordo Redactus), it would be wise to check your
security clearance before viewing these archives. -Tally ho lads, Colonel
Ackland.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After handing up my PhD thesis (which I talked about in <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/the-best-laid-plans-of-mice-and-men.html" target="_blank">my last post</a>) I gave writing a solid brake for a bit. This unintentionally spilled over to my blog too so I have gone a full month without a post. Now that I am back to writing at work I found the urge to write a post again. So what have I been up to? I finished a tank! I am splitting this one over two posts so if you would prefer to jump to the finished tank hop over to <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/leman-russ-demolisher-finished-tank-211.html" target="_blank">Part 2</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Demolisher and converted Hydra below are some of my oldest tanks from back in the mid 90's. I pulled them out around two years back and gave them a new base colour but that was as far as I got with them. Some of the regular followers might remember them from <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/armored-wip.html" target="_blank">this post</a>.</span></div>

For these I leant heavily on World War One and Two references but I did not want to simply replicate those tanks. I finished up with something that fit into 40k but felt 20th century.</span></div>

For this I have been using variations of the Orpheus Campaign icon shown below. These were painted these on the side crew hatches. I wanted it to look like the crew had painted them on so I did not paint them exactly the same on both sides. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am very good at planning and very good at finishing things, just not so good at joining those two concepts together. I inevitably end up doing way more than I planned, way better than I planned, way later than I planned. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was optimistically hoping to keep up weekly blog posts but I missed the last three. I do have some good news though. After what has now been six years I am proud to say that finally I handed up my PhD thesis. It was a monumental effort in the end so following its submission I took a week off, played with my 20 month old son, caught up on sleep and generally recovered from the thesis ordeal. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With that all behind me I'm ready to get my hobby on again!</span><br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The year started with my three gaming mates all speculating
about what they were going to get painted this year. It was not long until this
idle chatter escalated into formal painting pledges. Liam (<a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/04769460904008281915" target="_blank">Frothing Muppet</a>)
pledged a small horde of Orks which he has been making mad progress on
over the last two months. He originally posted about it <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/55-2015-woohoooh-wait-its-february.html" target="_blank">here</a>, and followed up with progress posts <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/56-looking-killa.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/057-30-minutes-here-30-minutes-there.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/058-stompy-killa-deff-stomp.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/059-boyz-go-to-waagh-wip.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/060-boys-waaagh-on.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://frothingmuppet.blogspot.com.au/search?updated-max=2015-02-10T01:54:00-08:00&max-results=3&start=3&by-date=false" target="_blank">here</a>... well you get the picture, Muppet has done a lot!</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">James (<a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/16304529007335813475" target="_blank">The Hobbyist</a>) has also been cutting
swaths through an Imperial Fist army. Unfortunately he is yet to blog his progress</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">- we’ll
have to give him a nudge. James has has shown off a really nice </span><a href="http://minihobbyist.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/daemon-bastion-project.html" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">chaos bastion</a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> which is worth checking out though. Finally, our third mate Dale (yet to become a blogger)
is working his way through some Raven Guard. Rightfully so, I have pledge some
Praetorians. Our goals were self chosen and there seems to have been two
different strategies at play. Liam and Dale have smaller pledges (around the 40
to 50 model mark) – aiming for realistically doable goals, while James and I
have gone for hyper ambitious pledges (around the 100 model mark) to use the
goal to really push ourselves. It is difficult to make comparisons between our
goals and progress seeing that we are painting different miniatures, under different time constraints and are painting at different standards. It is also worth
noting that Liam and Dale are probably better painters than James and I but
that being said we all are pushing each other along. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My pledge </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">was </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">initially a very open '100 models'. Within this tanks would count as 10, walkers 5, heavy weapons 3 and infantry as 1. I then refined this to models that I could field in my standard 1500 point list. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For fun, our progress is plotted on the graphs below. The axis on the left depicts the pledge percentage completed (plotted by the thick lines and circles) while the axis on the right shows the total model count (plotted by the thin lines and crosses). </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the end of January we were all reasonably bunched with us all completing around 10 models.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Currently I am stalling on making a decision on the guns. Originally I was painting a gun number on them, in the old 2nd / 3rd ed style. Although, now I'm toying with the idea of painting red lions on them to match my recent work. If the army were Cadians they would have their Cadian Gate emblem plastered on everything so I feel I should go with the red lion. I’d better make a choice soon so suggestions are welcome!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the real world I am submitting my PhD thesis over the next two weeks as well as working. As a result, my days are split between 10 hours of shiftwork, 8-10 hours of thesis writing and 3-5 hours of sleep. Thus, there is no modelling happening at the moment. I do have my finished defence lines to show off though! Here is where I had left them in the <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/reinforcing-new-front.html" target="_blank">last post</a>.</span></div>

so unfortunately I did not incorporate some of the advice that I received in my
last post. Never the less, I got there in the end! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the other reasons I wanted to add some sort of hight to the back of the defences was because the small 2nd Ed Praetorians are shorter than the wall!! On their new decking they can now fire out of the gun ports whist standing and over the low sections when kneeling. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I must have been really eager when I glued all of the planks on because didn't take any photos. From there I went straight into painting the boards. I took a shot of the paints to remind myself which colours I had used for next time. I layered these colours (from right to left) keeping the boards closer to the wall darker and the outside edge lighter. I figured the outside edge would be weathered more.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, it has been quite a break between solid painting posts. This blogging drought ends here! Starting this month I will attempt a feat that I have never achieved ever in my last 4 years of blogging... I will blog weekly painting posts. {gasp} I'm know right, a very dangerous deed! I don't know how long it will last but there will be no retreating! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In this post I painted up my Earthshaker Cannon, but what this post is really about is the symbols and icons that I have added to my Praetorian force. Lately, I have been putting large emphases on making sure
that my armies have a strong identity. For my <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2014/10/building-necron-empire-of-gold-episode.html" target="_blank">golden Necrons</a> this has been through the elaborate city terrain that represents their crown world.
Praetorians by themselves have a strong theme but I wanted to introduce a few
icons to the army to cement their character and identity across the force.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of my favourite Forge World campaign books is IA 12 ‘The
Fall of Orpheus’. The background section is superb and I am a big fan on the
new campaign army lists. The Necron Dark Harvest list is the basis of my golden
Necron force allowing me lots of flayed ones, while the DKoK Assault Bridge heavily
influenced my home brewed <a href="http://macharianthunderguard.blogspot.com.au/2014/11/militarum-equester-play-through-of-new.html" target="_blank">Cavalry Codex</a>. [edit: I know the new Necron codex is out today but I have no idea how my force will adapt just yet]. It seems fitting then that I should
set my heroic Necron v Praetorian war in the Orpheus sector. It may be part of
the final Orpheus Salvation campaign or possibly one of the earlier campaigns in
the history of the Orpheus sector. Passably at the conclusion of the Orphean War of Faith? Either way,
the Praetorian campaign will be an off shoot of the main force which are fighting
over a Necron Crown World tomb city. Did they stumble across it by chance? Were
they sent there on a special mission? I haven’t decided yet. But I do know that
whatever happened there was significant enough to be completely removed from all Imperial records (save maybe a lone document sealed away deep in an inquisitional
vault somewhere).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course none of that really matters, the point is that I
decided to paint the Orpheus Sector Campaign badge on to my Praetorians units
to signify what they are doing and where they are in the galaxy. I was not entirely
sure that it was something that was within my skill level. After all, it is pretty complicated. One Saturday morning
I rallied my courage, picked up an Earthshaker (giving me a nice big flat area)
and gave it a crack. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I lightly panted it first in white, then went over the top
in black and finally filled in the centre with a dark grey. The Orpheus temple
in the centre is not perfectly cantered but all in all I called it a success. The next thing that I wanted to give my Praetorians was a nice looking Praetorian Army badge. I really liked the red lion that
identifies the Praetorians on the art by the ‘40k Campaign’ group. Colonel Winterborne has done some fantastic free
hand painting on his Praetorians too. Inspired by this I thought I’d give a big
red lion a try next.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is still a bit to go on this but it is mostly there. First up will be a dull coat spray, then some equipment and shells on the base and finally some crew. A few days later I wasn't 100% happy with the lion. Not enough to wipe the whole thing and start again mind you! Still I wanted to get the lion looking right for the next project. To practice I grabbed a little plastic tent and attempted another red lion.</span></div>

that I want to finish off. In my cabinet I have moved my painted Praetorians to
the side so I can fit in another platoon. They are undercoated and starting to

Praetorians, except none of the original special weapon Praetorian models had
beards. Thus, three flamers got a slight re-sculpt. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Praetorian art work. At first I thought it was fan work posted on deviant art.
As I found more I thought it must be from Fantasy Flight games, meaning
Praetorians would appear in their RPG – an awesome prospect. Then I found the
source site and I read the words ‘The Fall Of Praetoria’.</div>

was very excited by what I saw. <o:p></o:p></div>

I was still full of questions about this project so I wrote
to the studio to find out more. I was mostly interested in ‘how’ and ‘who’
rather than the exact details of the site and campaigns – fan made materials are some of the best but sometimes it gets squashed before it gets going.</div>

Here is my short Q&A with Guerin Anselme the project
manager (he apologised for his French-English translation).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Q) What is the studio behind Warhammer 40K Campaigns? This
has been listed as a ‘fan based project’ so who are you guys?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>A) The studio is a band of friends, 1 webdesigner, 1
encoder, 1 project manager and freelance graphic designers, others are

budget.</i><o:p></o:p></div>

lot of work going into it. Are people donating their time or is it being
financed some way?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>A) It comes to
personal time to the whole project except the illustrations and proofreading
English translations so that these are not a mixture of French / English.

<i>A) Yes sure, when website will opening, we hope to have

delays and so will not be ready to launch in 2014 as planned. However, Guerin did

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Three deffkoptas fired and then swooped in to mash up the Heavy Dragoon Junior Officer and his men. The Dragoons steadied their horses to gun at the koptas as they hovered in low. A final toss of Krak grenades sent the three Ork fly boys to a fiery end. <i>-It seemed who ever charged was coming out second best!</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a debrief, I have a few alterations and adjustments for my supplement. The orders that I had adapted from the Militarum Tempestus supplement were a little too powerful for this list. The Heavy Dragoons (Storm Troopers) ended up being too good. They were very very expensive, but were fast in the movement phase, powerful in the shooting phase and could hold their own in close combat. Their assault capability came from firstly the orders and secondly from having a pistol and close combat weapon as well as 2 Attacks standard (as Death Riders do). I'll drop the 2 Attacks to 1 and with the change to the orders this should pull them back into line. Liam noted that this list lacked 'basic' troops. It is worth mentioning that the Militarum Equester was meant to be an 'elite' army such as the Militarum Tempestus, but it is also true that the list that I ran included only 5 of the more 'basic' Dragoons. These guys didn't really see action, but I'll build a few more for our next game which should round off the force a little better. I also had options to field Heavy Mortars, Quad Launchers and Rapier Laser Destroyers (pulled by horse teams) in the army, so I'll try them out next time along with a few special characters that I included. All in all the rules were not a failure but some tweaking is still needed. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This unit has been named after my favourite 40k novel <i>Imperial Glory</i>. The heroes of the story are the 11th Brimlock Regiment; a consolidated mechanised dragoon force. The regiment includes two companies of Horse Dragoons - as the author Richard Williams describes them; <i>"<span style="line-height: 115%;">The
Horse Dragoons wear gold and silver ceremonial armour and are nicknamed
"tin bellies" by the regular infantry. Brimlock cavalrymen are
typically highly religious and are devout followers of the doctrines of the
Imperial Cult. They are also highly disciplined and consider themselves an
elite unit."</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided that Brimlock might also have elite heavy
cavalry filling the shock role of storm troops. Armed with Hotshot Lascarbines, the title of <i>Carabiniers</i> seemed to fit them well. In terms
of fluff for this particular unit, after earning themselves glory and honour in
a brutal campaign, the severely reduced regiment was deemed too small to be
effective. Rather than consolidating the highly specialised veterans into
another horse dragoon regiment, the regimental colours and a hand full of cavalrymen
returned to Brimlock to reform the regiment. The remaining survivors were granted
the honour of joining the Macharian Thunder Guard, a specialised formation of
the best veteran cavalry within the Imperium.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I imagined these men looking like Napoleonic French Carabiniers with shiny cuirasses and red plume helmets. Here is an illustration of the historical reference for my conversion. It comes from one of my favourite Napoleonic books <i>'Armies of the Napoleonic Wars An Illustrated History'</i>. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The last few months have been full of too much work and not
much hobby time. As a result the little rulers of the Necron Empire have been
growing irritated. Under their orders, the builders put down their tool and
picked up weapons to slay some explorers that ventured to close to the city
complex.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the spirit of fielding units that you want (opposed to
units that are good) I am going against the internet masses and have been
making up some count as Flayed Ones - because we all need our close combat
troops to be I2, no power weapons, can't take a transport and are incredibly
slow. I could always deep strike them (but they can't charge and don't have a
gun). Seriously, these guys really don't look good on paper! The Cron tactics page at '1d4chan' starts their
discussion of Flayed Ones by saying "These guys are almost universally
regarded as the worst unit in the Necron Codex, and with good reason".
This is followed by a review that convinces you that taking them will lose you
the game. Finally it concludes with "They're the single worst unit in your
codex, don't take them. They're a terrible, terrible unit." Sounds like
the sort of unit I need in my army! The next time I pull that win out of my
arse it is going to feel good! Optimism aside, as a fluff gamer I am free to
take whatever units I think reflects the look I'm after. Flyed Ones give me the
opportunity to model up a horde of sword and shield infantry.</span></div>

Our souther hemisphere winter dramatically slowed down my casting production line. It wasn't that the cold effected the casting but more that it was too cold to venture out into the shed in the evening! Even so, I now have cast up enough blocks to fully build
the lower level of the temple. <br />[Soon it will be getting too hot to venture into the shed so I better get cracking!]</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While my little temple is a tiny construction compared with these complexes I felt a dome would add some significance to the building and help it tell its story. I liked the look of the dome supported by a ring of columns so I wanted to include that. To mix things up a little I decided that the dome would be a large 'energy sphere' - thinking along the lines of the old Vortex Grenades or Dark Eldar Web-way Portals. </span></div>

took several days for the clay on the inside of the bowl to harden. Once it was
hard to the touch I carefully pulled it out. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">The
outer side of the dome was still soft so I left it another day or two and then
it was properly set. As I had hoped, the cling wrap had left random groves in
the clay. This would be painted up as ‘energy bolts’.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I started painting one small patch to get an idea of how it should
look. I realised it was going to be easier painting the whole thing in a light colour
and slowly work darker between the crackling energy bolts. Having the energy bolts
indented rather than risen means that it is a little backwards to paint but I’ll
stay at it until I have something that I am happy with.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Currently it is still sitting on my desk like this. I need to find the motivation to cast up some more columns for it to stand on and make some sort of mechanism to generate the energy dome. In terms of fluff it might be a 'Dolum Gate' or a 'power plant'. In game it will probably emanate a vortex shield.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our blogging friend Mr Zzzzzz asked if I had thought about adding those cool Forge World Necron tomb citadels. I said "sure, but they are a bit pricey". To this Zzzzz, in an incredible act of generosity, offered to chip in towards one. "Wow" I thought, "a Necron tomb citadel is going to look awesome in the city!"</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From there I went into negotiations with the misses, my parents and my sister and managed to get them all to give me 'hobby funds' for my birthday. I added to these by selling off some Tau and fantasy gear. Then by combining my order with a mate I managed to get the order above the free shipping threshold. With all of this combined I had just enough to secure myself TWO </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Necron tomb citadels!!

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wanted the columns to be a focal point of colour so I painted some purple stripes on them. I also considered have some sort of flame on top of them as if they are a form of light pole or energy emitter. I wanted them to look like they have a purpose. I settled on a blue energy ball floating above them. I have no idea what these decorative wire balls are actually meant for.</span></div>

Due to not having much free time I have been doing lots and lots of project hopping as you can see.

Here is a few final shots of the tomb citadel sitting on a Dreadfleet ocean mat. </span></div>
