| Well, after leaving your mouse hands dripping with...erm...anticipation, I shall now give you updates for my Slaaneshi forces growth and development. 1 First things first: Y’know how I said I’d kick Bruce’s Ork’s arse so hard it would register on the Richter scale? Well, My marines made the earth move! Battle Report - Army List Woo-Hoo! I am so goood! I am so goood! Go ME! The Perverts get a pastingWell I have to settle for what was basically the only success in a string of losses: I’ve been perforated by Eldar ‘and they shall know no armour save’ weaponry.(Didn’t last 3 turns) Against a rather excellent Panzer Grenadier list I’ve been run over by chimeras, I’ve had my possessed gloriously rend apart a hellhound only to play robot wars with a Cyclops (2).And as Nick will attest, against the Wulfen my pervy marines have been beaten, shot, stabbed, torn limb from limb, eaten alive and shat back out again. And they have loved every single minute of it! 2And then there is the curious incident of the invincible Sisters of Battle. Playing a cleanse mission against these bitches before the new codex came out conjured up images of my marines pleasuring the nuns with guns screaming “Where’s your Emperor now b**ch!” But now it’s all so different. Why? Acts of faith. These miniature miracles present many headaches for my army. AP1 bolters, Fearless girls and i1 swingers I can deal with. 2+ Inv Saves however…yeah ...Suffice to say my easily amused marines simply bounced off sisters regardless how many talons or power weapon attacks struck the angry mother in laws of the false emperor, or their leader, Lord Karamazov and his Judgement Trousers. 3 Many people criticise Chaos of having the overpowered toys. (Cough tooled up siren stealth daemon prince) but I reckon having a 3+ inv save for the entire army and a 2+ inv save for characters is just going too far. But bitching aside, the guy played fair and won fair and square. Back to the sacrificial blood smeared drawing boardSo what went so horribly wrong when it was going so right?Right, after some careful SWOT analysis based upon battlefield experience I came up with pretty much the same as I got before:
With this in mind, my purchases were as follows:
Playing around with DeamonettesI have yet to play more games with these, as I must say that the new Deamonettes, as amazingly fantastically, groin grippingly spectacular as they are, are utter swines to put together. I suspect that I have picked up a dodgy batch because these were just flash city! The joins on the arms are so ridiculously shallow, convincing the arm to stay attached has resulted in more than one expletive filled night. Pinning them is out of the option as I do not own a drill bit that fine and my skill with green stuff leaves very little to be desired. I’ll persist, if only for the benefit of this site and let you folks know if I get along.In terms of painting, well folks, here are all those photos I promised you.    Lord Enash himself.    "Fluffykins" the Eternally Denied  Not really worth the wait now was it? I thought so! The army list also has pics of the Possessed, as well as my two Noise Marine squads, though they're only WIP at the moment. Well, I’m currently revising my army list to alleviate some of these problems. With the first ever DYSARTES.com 40k tournament confirmed, I may take them to it just for giggles. So you! YES YOU! Can experience the Lord Enash non-stop thrill ride! By playing against me in the tournament I am also writing some background for the army soon to be posted on these great pages. I’ll leave you with some learning points about my Slaanesh for those who want to follow in my footsteps: 1. My army is really too small, Deamonettes should aid this and add flexibility. 2. If I can ever have the patience to stick the little minxes together! 3. Sonic weaponry rules but don’t depend on it solely. You shall be disappointed. 4. Sisters are more bent than a gay boomerang shaped corkscrew with a string of fraud convictions. 5. Any army that can bypass the natural strengths of the chaos marines armour is going to own this list. I have too few models to compensate for combat losses and hold objectives like quarters. Well, that’s you lot informed and hopefully entertained for the minute, I’ll see you next time for another fun-filled day at the Dysartes fun factory! Until that time, try to remember that the images you saw above were only models so don’t have nightmares! 1 - No, a hard on does not count as growth and development 2 - Craig Charles was picking bits of gribbly flesh out of his face for weeks 3 - Is it just me or do I get images of Wallace and Gromit on the Throne of Judgement yelling “They’re the wrong trousers Gromit! And they’ve gone wrong!” | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
