The Mother land calls all its sons and daughters

Yep its Mk III time and I figured I would start off with a new army.  I've always wanted to play Khador, my first army  in Mk 1 was the old version of this starter set.  I just didn't have anyone to play against so it got sold long ago.

Texas Toy Soldier is starting a Journeyman League on the 11th of July so I thought I would jump on that.  Between this starter box, and being able to pick up a copy of the Khador vs Menoth starter box at around 50% off I've got a good amount of Khador to start with and two casters right out of the gate.

I'll try to post some of the adventures in MK III as I go, since I noticed its been over a year since we've posted here.

Keep your eyes open for more updates.

Gone to the squishy side.

Well not so squishy but more so than jacks.   I've wanted to start a Hordes force for awhile and the upcoming Journeyman League at Texas Toy Solider seemed like a great excuse.  I'm running the alternate starter set of Tyrant Xerxis so been buying stuff individually.  I've got the two basilisks assembled and waiting to prime on the 6th when we can start.  This weekends triumph was a fully magnetized heavy titan kit.  I've set it up to go between a titan cannoneer and a titan gladiator.  Including magnetized tusks and back banner for transport.

Should be fun i'll try to keep this site updated with my progress.

Oh and because I have nothing better to do I've also jumped on another journeyman with my convergence set.

Weak so so Weak

Ya all I can say is it was a hell of a black friday sale, got the starter box and faction book at 45% off, no tax and reasonable shipping.   Still very very weak.

The Journy Begins

So while at the store today getting my ass handed to me by a foot Menoth army, I was also thrown into the briar patch and convinced to join the unoffical Journyman league starting soon.

The "down side" was I had to buy a new heavy jack and caster.  The Journyman rules lay out the following for a Retribution box set

Kaelyssa, Night's Whisper - WJ: +7
- Chimera - PC: 6
- Griffon - PC: 4
- Manticore - PC: 8

I already had the Chimera but luckily it wasn't painted yet.

 So now I have a Manticore/Hydra fully magged to go between either, a fully built Phoenix.  Caster Kaelyssa, Sylys Wyshnalyrr, twin Arcanists, a soulless escort, and a pair of ghost snipers.  I also have a full set of Invictors coming in the mail.

I'll try to keep a running log of my progress and points here.  Partly to brag and partly to keep track..Ok really to brag.

Slowly building steam

Yes I know its been awhile, and that I promised you updates.  The Ret army is slowing chugging along, with a new influx of models coming in the next week.  This new influx will take me up to where I can field a 50 point army!

On the Cygar side I picked up one of the new Heavy Jack kits, and its awesome.  Honestly looking at just the body last night I wished this one had come out long before I would have grabbed a bunch of these and built all my varients off of this one.

Here she is fully magnetized to run between the Avenger and Centurion.  I will end up building out the Hammersmith hands though I doubt it will take the field.  The only down side is the shield army droops down because of the weight of the shield.

Once I get some of the Ret finished up I'll get it posted here.

Not Dead Yet!

So ya were still here.  I'm putting together a few things to post, couple of highlights.

1.  Started a Retribution army
2.  Got the wife interested in Circle Orboros
3.  Started in a local League, actually won a game!

So look for these and more exciting topics coming soon!
