I'm (maybe) Back!

So I realised the other day that it's been nearly six months since I made a post on this blog. Quite a dry patch after the fairly regular posts I was managing at the start (although that was a pretty big backlog I had prepared). The Dark Eldar project was taking most of my hobby time, and considering I didn't want to keep working on them I wasn't devoting much time to the hobby, but it's finally done with, so I thought I would give you an update on what else I was doing.

The Cygnar Battle Box - Building

Let's get into the building stage of our Cygnar Battle Box.

The happy little baggies.

Warmachine Two Player Battle Box - Building Menoth


Moving right along we get into the second half of our Warmachine Two Player Battle Box, the Protectorate of Menoth.



Well these guys all get individual bags, poor Khador.

Warmachine Two Player Battle Box - Building Khador


Alright lets get these things built, starting with the Khador half of our Battle Box.



So this is what we start with.

Warmachine Two Player Battle Box - Contents

I've been looking forward to picking up the Two Player Battle Box since I saw it announced in 2011. So lets get into it and see what goodies we have to play with:

Nice fancy box with great cover art. But it's the contents we care about!

Vyre Myrmidon Magnetized!

House Vyre Banshee Heavy Myrmidon

Finally got to work on the House Vyre Heavy Myrmidon kit. I'd been looking forward to getting my hands on this guy since he was announced with Wrath.

Daemon Heavy Myrmidon

Sphinx Heavy Myrmidon

I did this guy with magnets for the head, hands, and shoulder gun.

Ready to change at a moments notice!

The Retribution of Scyrah Battle Box - Contents and Building

Its finally here!

=D =D =D

Got my hands on the Retribution of Scyrah Battle Box, complete with plastic Light Myrmidons and plastic Kaelyssa. So lets see what we've got:

2 Baggies, Cards, and the standard Quick Start Guide and mini No Quarter sample.

This is a little neater.

Four models to start our Retribution of Scyrah adventure:

• Warcaster Kaelyssa, Night's Whisper
• Manticore Heavy Myrmidon
• Chimera Light Myrmidon
• Griffon Light Myrmidon

The whole force comes to 13 points, so pretty standard for a battle box list.

The pose is a big improvement on the metal Kaelyssa

Heres a comparison with the metal Model. She's smaller now.

The Chimera, I tried for a rushing pose. He's about to throw a punch.

Damn camera focus... a comparison of the plastic and metal Light Myrmidons.

Griffon. Trying for a shield raised defensive posture.

When I first dabbled in RoS a few years ago I made a magnetized Manticore/Hydra. I've decided to use the Battle Box Heavy bits with my leftover pieces to make a Phoenix instead. So heres the Battle Box, all built and ready for painting:

Pretty intimidating I'd say.

The Starting Point and an Eiryss Conversion

After presenting this as a Retribution of Scyrah blog I've been quite short on Retribution related posts. So to start us off I thought I would show you the beginning models I have for the Retribution of Scyrah:

Lots of Solos, an artifact from my first jump into RoS.

The Cygnar Battle Box - Contents

I picked up the Cygnar Battle Box a little while ago, along with some dice, tokens, and the Forces of Warmachine book to match. I took some pictures but had not got around to using them, so here they are for your enjoyment, and reference if you haven't seen the contents of this Battle Box before:



The Battle Box, FoW: Cygnar book, Template Set and ofcourse some blue dice to match.

Each model comes in its own little bag.

The Battle Box also came with a Quick Start rules sheet to help new players get started.
