JML Progress!

I finished my Pistol Wraith, so here are some pics of that.

And the whole 25pt force I'm ready to field:

We met last Friday and I played 2 games at 10pts (battlegroup + Canker Worm for me), and lost them both!  The Skorne box still makes a lot more sense to me, although I'm no fan of Xekaar.  Clearly I need to learn to Cryx a bit better.  A couple shots from my games:

I'm currently 1-4 for the league, but at least I'm ahead on painting.


Until next time!

I Hope You Enjoyed Your "Labor Day," Mortals

For there is no such day in the Nightmare Empire!  The baleful light of the forges of Skell never dims, and their clangor never quiets!

Ahem...

As I said last week, I'm starting up Cryx in a very casual JML with a few good friends.  I don't know Cryx as well as I know Skorne, or even Retribution, but they're cool, and I felt like trying something new.

Why Cryx?

Mostly, I really like their look.  They have some of my favorite models in WarmaHordes, and I have been having a lot of fun painting them so far.  In particular, I like the necromechanika look.  Zombies with machine parts, robots with bone parts, ghosts with pistols, it's all great.  I also like some of the core mechanics in Cryx.  Debuffing enemies is fun, and using the souls of slain enemies as robot and spell fuel is awesome.  Cryx should also play quite differently from both Skorne and Ret, which will be great when I want some variety.

My list so far:
