Still Playing (and Painting) Daemons

I am still playing Warhammer 40K and I am still playing my Daemons without allies. I am really enjoying the Flying Monstrous Circus build I have been playing since right after the book released. In addition to the Keeper of Secrets and 2 Daemon Princes pictured above, I have also added a third Daemon Prince, Great Unclean One, Lord of Change, and Fateweaver to the mix. Currently, I am painting up the third Daemon Prince and the Great Unclean One as our escalation league moves into 1750 points. Now, I know the popular choice is the Bloodthirster, and I agree he is full of badassery; however...

Entering Immoren: Venturing into Warmachine and Hordes


Warmachine and Hordes; this will be my second foray into Warmachine and Hordes. My first foray was a very short three month endeavor about one year ago that resulted in me selling off my Legion of Everblight army.  The reasons for this were two-fold. First off, Legion is a very simple army to use for a new player and I had a lot of early success. Secondly, the group that I attempted to join to learn the game was very insular. I soon got tired of the secondary antics and sold off the army and continued on with 40K and Malifaux. How things change in one year….

Independent Characters Hobby Challenge: Army Completed!

You read that right, I have not only completed my April Goal for my army, but I have completed the entire 1850 point army.

Now, this does not mean I am done, I am still painting up Daemons, but I have painted 1850+ points of Daemons since January. First we will start with a look of my April Commitment and then the whole army.

Army Evolution: Chaos - The 2nd Incarnation

Wiser men than I, from a diverse set of backgrounds and occupations have said in one way or another than in order to succeed, in order to be successful, you must evolve and/or adapt in order to stay abreast of change. H.G. Wells said it like this, "adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative."

Whether you or I like it, the Chaos Daemons have changed. Gone are the days of Fatecrusher, Flamer/Screamer Spam, or Fearless and Eternal Warrior Cavalry Lists. The new codex has ushered in dynamically different book that plays nothing like its predecessor, in terms of style or even model count. Personally, this has led to dramatic changes with my Old Chaos Daemon Army; the first of which is I am now calling it my Chaos Army....
