My current reading/listening queue is The Remnant Blade (70% is of the way through... my lord), Voidscarred, and then Tomb World.

Three new novels in as many weeks. Good time to be a ravenous devourer of books about space orks/humans/elves/robits punching other space orks/humans/elves/robits.

One thing to be mindful of with the head is that if you don’t use the cable in some way you’ll have a hole on that side of the front facing armour. Nothing that can’t have something else put into it but something to consider

He'd make for a great ancient! Depending on how his rules shake out and such as well as any detachments akin to Lysander etc he may be the one either leading a terminator army of mine or sit in it as a Chaplain alternative

The Iron Hands are seeing reinforcements in the hulking form of Caanok Var available for pre-order from Games Workshop.
They sent one my way, so I painted him in the successor chapter Red Talons colours.

It may have gotten you box seats to a coup, but The Infinite and The Divine has rave reviews for very good reason.

Happy book birthday to THE INFINITE AND THE DIVINE, which released in hardback five years ago today!

Thanks so much to everyone who’s taken the ride with these two on their ten-millennia tropical vacation disaster.

The Death Eagles of the 90's 40k, which is a name matched in 30k by a Blackshields warband of Emperor's Children.

I kind of stuck two and two together. It still came out at five, but it was tenuous enough to give it a shot :)

Horus Heresy Blackshields rules are out, and I can start playing my disparate forces of many colours rolling around the battlefields of the 31st Millennium.
