The War may be Closing, but the WHAAAGH!!! will live on - Shas'o Sodit | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Right, this has been a busy month, as you can see with my Battle Results Grot, Keith. These picture was taken on June 6, 2004.  With my lasts month purchases I'm now able to use the Death Skullz rules I've been wanting to use for some months (Patient little sod arn't I?). Yay. I now have for the Lootaz: 4 Snipers Big Shoota Missile Launcher Autocannon Plasma Gun And with the Shoota Boyz (one of which is now a Slugga Boy), I now have 16 Lootaz. Now onto gaming. My mind is a little confused (usually is (I'd agree with that - Ed)) as to the battles I've done this month, but I can only remember 3 games! Doh! This is the list I used for most of the games, this will also be the list I will use in the final battle:
I've mainly been fighting Chris Faradays Bolter Bitches/Nuns with Guns. I've now learnt why Female armies are rare, all those fairly sexist lines used, is just one reason why I like fighting such armies.  I also managed another game versus Ultramarine Dave, another Victory. On top of that, I managed to get a 1,000pt game versus the Imperial Guard, but with me being a bit of a dumbass (not complete mind you) I included the Killa Kanz by mistake, but we called it a draw in the end anyway. Suffice to say, I won each engagement bar one, and that was a draw. Learning Points 1. The army now has alot of firepower for an Ork Army (4 Snipers, 2 Heavy Bolters, Autocannon, Missile Launcher, 3 Big Shootaz, Demolisher Cannon, Battle Cannon, 2 Plasma Cannons, Plasma Gun), but anti-marine it isn't, parhaps more use of the spare Rokkit Launchaz? 2. The Army is slow, but this shouldn't be a problem as the heavy support will attract fire. 3. Snipers are fun! Especiasly when they pin them selves. 4. Russes! Need I say more? Now onto army collecting. This much i've been able to get 2 Russes (1 Demolisher)! YAY! I remembered that I had £90 to spend in the final month! (I didn't buy anything for 2 months!) So what I bought was:
A mere £50 I also found time to talk to my dealer (thats Chris Faraday by the way) for free models once again, only to given 3 Squigs and Mad Dok Grotsnit. Nice! But their painted (Doh!) but I don't really need all of these models, only 1 Squig. So I will be trying to get "Baldie" Broome to strip one squig of its paint. (I've been using a Squig from my 'Freak army until I got my own) So that takes my total army points to 2,278pts in total! (no completely loaded-out wargear limits either) - Army List As far as painting goes, as of the 6th June 2004 (D-Day+60, God bless their souls), I only need 6 Orkz, 3 Grots and 2 Killa Kanz to paint for the final battle, which should be some time this month. Should be easy to do. So heres to a completely painted 1,500pts army! So this is the last TOTG articles. The next TOTG report from us will be in the final battle, hope to see ya there. Note: not telling the full truth in this article, the 2 Russes are on loan from "Baldie" Broome. I needn't some Russes for this army, but didn't have the money to get my own, but Baldie had just gotten his. Baldie doesn't mind me doing this though. Additonal Note: the standard russ was painted by Baldie, the Demolisher by me. (This would explain why the standard Russ looks better, then, as Baldie is a better painter - Ed) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
