Assault Terminators



These guys really are the stars of the 5th edition Space Marine codex. Like the Land Raider they are inexorably associated with, they have built up an infamous reputation for assault power, cost efficiency, and above all a massive durability. Still, even these guys are not invincible, and using them correctly will often mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Coming up...

Well it's the new year, a good time to look ahead and draft some plans for the future.

Space Marine HQs - Librarian

Following up my previous post on Kor'sarro Khan, today I'll take a look at the other Space Marine HQ choice I use regularly, the Librarian.

Theming your army - 4: Additional Material

So to close off this multi-post, here are a few extra ways of incorporating a theme into your army.

Theming your army - 3: Theming Vehicles

Below I've given a brief overview of the vehicles in my army and how I added some small bits and bobs to fit them into my army's theme.

Theming your army - 2: Theming Infantry

 Following up on last post about theming your army, here I'll show how minimal work on infantry models can help show off the theme clearly, without having to splatter every model with Green Stuff.

Let's talk some 40k. Today's theme is: themes. I'll draw on my modest hobby experience here to provide some insight in theming your army.

Index Astartes - Storm Dragons

I discovered my humble blog received some attention on another blog, warhammer39999. I'm very grateful for the mention, and it made me realise I have yet to post some background material on my army. So for all you fluff-buffs, here is some history on the chapter!

In the ancient Librarium vaults of Terra, beneath adamantium walls a hundred feet thick, sealed with hexagrammic wards and atomic blast doors, lie those records whose content would drive the common man insane and shake the foundations of the Imperium should they be known to others than the most faithful of men.
Among the heretical works of the Ruinous Powers, arcane tomes of forbidden sorcery and blasphemous xenos texts fortelling the destruction of mankind are stored documents written by the Administratum itself in recent times, documenting the most atrocious crime known to man: treachery among the Emperors' space marines.


The last time the vaults were opened, one new file was added to the mountains of unholy knowledge stored therein, detailing the betrayal and destruction of the Storm Dragons chapter of the Adeptus Astartes.

Spotlight: Storm Dragon

This is currently my pride and joy, the Ultraforge dragon. In my opinion one of the best dragon models out there. As you may notice it's far from finished at the moment, the paintjob needs some cleaning up, it'll get a rider for it, and it needs a base.
