In this review we have Quickshade Strong Tone. Something that has occurred in the package of the Army Painter that we ordered.

  Why Strong Tone? Because it is between other two tone (soft and dark), and we expect that the middle tone to demonstrate the best, means not soft or dark, always seeking the middle.
    

-as a model we use the old Chaos Space Marine, undercoated in white.

                                     

-the basic body parts are left in white, just to see the behavior of Quickshade on it,  the rest is painted in Snoot Green as shown in the following three photos

-in the next step face is painted with Rotting Flesh, hair-Codex Grey, weapon-Adeptus Battlegrey, plasma chargses-Ice Blue,metal parts-Boltgun Metal,  the following four pictures show that

-Quickshade time, just wash quickshade on model, and wait one day to dry (about 24 hours) , nex five photos describe it

-after 24 hoursyou can kill the gloss model look, using matt varnish(spray is recommended )

-and finally we conclude, nothing special, too many hours to dry, We recommend it only for the production of large armies, simple colors, two or three colors max...
-in the next review we will try with a little more complex figure, just to understand a little better this Quickshade....

Thoughts on the Blood Angels Codex, list No.1

Aloha!

So, here is my first list...I dont know why but I have called it "Ghandi".
Anyhow, here it goes:

HQ

Reclusiarch 155
jump pack, melta bomb

ELITES

Sang. priest 90
jump pack, power weapon

Furioso dreadnought 135       
heavy flammer,frag cannon

TROOPS

10x Tactical marines 210            
melta gun, lascannon, power fist             

10x Tactical marines 200
plasma gun, plasma cannon, power weapon

10x Scouts 180
snipers, missile launcher, camo cloaks

10x Assault marines 235
2x melta guns, power fist, hand flamer


DEDICATED TRANSPORT

Drop pod 35 (for furioso)

Rhino 55 (tactical marines)
dozer blade

Rhino 55 (tactical marines)
dozer blade

FAST ATTACK

Baal predator 150
heavy bolter, dozer blade

HEAVY SUPPORT

Whirlwind 95
dozer blade

Vindicator 150
dozer blade


So here it is! My first "normal" list. So far I´ve played 4 games with it and result was 2 loses and 2 wins. I must say, those games were real relaxation after all those tense games or tournament games.

Reclusiarch and priest goes with Assault marines for fast strikes (just like in books). Tactical marines are backbone with enough firepower to face anything that galaxy can throw at them. I love plasma. Plasma is great. It is answer for almost everything.
Scouts are great with their snipers and there is always handy ML for something tougher AND with their camo cloaks, they have great cover save!

Dreadnought is old fart with frag cannon. He usually drop down, kill something and then die.

Baal predator is a "must have" in BA list. Blood angels are known for this vehicle so I must have it in my list (in game against Salamanders, Baal was destroyed without firing a single shot :D )
Whirwind?!?! I know what you think but... I JUST LOVE THAT VEHICLE! To bad it has crap rules. Maybe if it has heavy 2, one shot per launcher... but who cares?! He killed around 6 genestealers in one game and contested an objective and I was happy as pig in mud. And it´s fast vehicle. And he can move 18 inches. And I love it.
Vindicator...I look at him like this: if you send a task force like this, maybe you´ll end up attacking some fortress and laying some siege so Vindi was perfect answer.

I´ve played against ´Nids, Blood Angels, Black Templars and Salamanders. I lost against ´Nids and BA and I won against BT and Salamanders. They were all friendly games!  My next game is against Gray knights and I can hardly wait..it´s against my associate, Dredo! Maybe we will do our first BATREP so stay tuned...

CHEERS!

Thoughts on the Blood Angels Codex

Hello everyone.

Firstly, I would like to note that this text does not begin with the intent to insult or show someone in a bad light. I was power gamer with cheesy lists.But why write this? Well, because I honestly got tired of playing strong, powerful list and I started to look at the basic rule that still stands in the rulebook, which is to "have fun". Reading all these tremendous WH40k books, I realized that I want to have a list of exactly what they have in books. Mephiston does not lead 50 Assault Marines or Astorath does not lead 40 Death company marines in rhinos with chaplains, etc. I realized that I´m not using 60% -70% Codex. That's why I started working at the list just like armies from books. What does this mean? So that means I like the idea of a list that looked like:

a) Army is led by some crazy Chaplain / Reclusiarch
b) Rare, but the truth is, that it happens that army is even led by one of the main characters (like in book, Fall of Damnos)
c) There is always some old fart of drednought that is wise and smart and all the other crap
d) Tactical marines are unavoidable and assault marines are for quick strikes
e) Scouts are always somewhere (more or less)
f) It often happens that the army has a Land Speeder for survey
g) There is always an old vehicle from the time of the Emperor that has a kill count of 2 and many more zeros behind

So I started doing the list that have begun to use most of the Codex, which is really flexible. I like the idea of scout bikers with a locator beacon, move up to 18 inch, and in next turn there are some terminators. (SPOILER )That was a great scene in The Purging of Kadillus and I therefore set out to do a similar list.

I must admit that I haven´t played with a BA for a year. I played only with Tyranids. I know, I should be burned as a heretic but I played with the Sisters of Battle to redeem myself a bit. Like every normal human or other, I like to win but I became bored playing such games in which my goal was to win and you would be unhappy if there was something which did´t work as planned, or I would think about the wrong moves that I made. That is why I started doing the lists that are more thematic than power gamer lists. I'm trying to imagine scenarios in my head, make a short story and then make the list.

Again, I repeat, this is not for insulting the power gamers, but I just personally got tired of making powerful list. Before, I was playing with my friend from the club so called “trash games”.  Rules were simple – make the list with everything that would not otherwise be taken and have a super fun. I began to make similar lists but more thematic and play with them and I must admit that my desire for games has returned. Last 4 games I played were the best in the last year. I discovered the magic of Whirlwind, rapid fire enjoyment from tactical marines, the speed of land speeders and wind in my hair with bikers.

This text is not written with the intent to criticize, but I just wanted to share with you my reflections and thoughts. I hope that no one is offended by this text. If it is, then we can go to 4-5 beers and solve the problem.

Cheers!
Perun

PS. Of course, you'll have to come to Croatia for that beers =)

I hope that I will not get this kind of views or messages on the street:
