200 OK

So i’v not done a blog post in ages (a skill i have mastered). Lately i’v been really abusing my new PC with all the games it can play on ultra high settings so i’v neglected my other hobby of geeky toy soldiers (remember when video games used to be geeky?! what happened there!).

I’v been thinking about the armies I own and i’v decided to systematically finish them all! and one of the long overdue ones to be finished are my World Eaters.

Now the current Chaos Space Marine codex is rubbish from a competitive standpoint and the previous World Eaters list I was running with this army included two daemon princes and two land raiders which, although this made the army ‘better’ at punching my opponents face off it actually made the army play 1. Semi defensively and 2. Very boring. So throwing caution to the wind in true Khorne fashion i’m taking Kharn the Betrayer, a few more berzerkers in a more fluffy list that’ll probably get smashed by IG mech and Grey Knights but meh it’ll be fun.

One of the additional marines I have added to bolster the numbers is this guy to the left.

This is one of the first models I ever bought and is probably one of my fav Gamesworkshop models evvvar. He’s one of the old Space Wolf blood claws from years ago when box sets of dudes were metal!

In his time he has been part of many armies, each time getting a paint stripping before getting drafted to another force. I think before this he was in a small Black legion army I had. Anyway now he is Jómar a Skull Champion of the Bloodied Fist Warband, a Space Wolf left for dead by his chapter and given a second chance to fight for the ‘real’ gods (after a healthy amount of lobotomisation ofc).

Its models like this once hes painted that get me back into the 40k universe, i could invent an entire history for this dude and hes just one model. It’s half the reason i don’t ‘get’ people who just like the 40k fiction and don’t dig the models, for me they are not really mutually exclusive. Here is the new list I am gonna go with:

1500pts World Eaters Army

Daemon Prince 140
Wings, Mark of Khorne

Kharn 165

8 Khorne Berzerkers 208
Bolt Pistols, CCWs, Frag, Krak
/w Skull Champion

Heavy Flamer, Smoke, Light, Possession

Land Raider 220

Dreadnought 100
2x CCW, 2x Twin Bolters

With 11pts to spare, which i might stick on the rhinos in the form of dozer blades since everything else is already put together. This is a totally fun list which is a chance of pace for me as i’m normally all about eking every point to be as competitive as possible within the given codex.

Just a few more Khorne Berzerkers for my World Eaters army. Its coming along, i might actually finish an army!

Just finished up this chap as a bit of a quick paint daemon prince for my world eaters army just gotta do the base.

Just finished a khorney forge world dreadnought for my slowy but surely getting painted world eaters army.

Trying not to use my blog to spam 40k stuff but meh will put stuff up as it is painted. Here be the mini squad of khorne berzerkers that go in the rhino.

Just finished one of the world eaters rhinos, pretty simple theme i’m going for nothing fancy.

I am going to start using my blog as a platform to log my wargaming hobby endeavours as well as everything else. I was going to start a new blog for this but I barely update this one so thought this stuff can live here until it gets a life of its own, in which case i’ll start up a second blog.

Anyhoo might as well get it kicked off with what I am working on at the minute which is a World Eaters chaos space marine army which I have had lying about for a few years since I worked part time at Gamesworkshop. Back then I had a staff discount so this army is made up of some pretty expensive parts with some new additions here and there.

Here is a tester marine I painted, the aim of the army is to be pretty straightforward to paint, nothing fancy:

Heres a lord I have converted who’ll get used as a daemon prince (since lords royally suck)

Rhino i put together ages ago:

Land raider I finished chaosifying the other day:
