That's right wolfbrothers....Shotdownmind and I, General Oadius, do hereby announce the date for our next primer tournament as February 25th. A primer tournament for the meanest GT on the West Coast, the Bay Area Open GT. It is our (SDM and I) to train ourselves for the competition ahead by defiling the armies of our fellow Wolfbrother's. It is our greatest desire that you bring enough Johnson (

General Oadius was skeptical when I first told him I wanted to base his army in Mud. I am sure things got worse on his side of the conversation when I then told him I didn't know how, but would figure it out. Some spackle, water, and inks or dyes I said then. Pretty sure he did not believe me then, I remember talking about tall grass that night...  We were on the lookout for something to put

Been working tirelessly to complete the Army of General Oadius to a very high standard. Definitely these models look fantastic and the hard work has paid off!  I know that General Oadius has approved of this lot, what do you think? Everything is in there as envisioned and beyond in many cases. Super-highlights, Object source lighting, weathering on top of weathering, awesome mud basing, and of

Your favorite Blood Claw here, and ready to give you my Post-Tournament Report. In our local Twin-Linked Tournament, I brought 1000 points of Space Wolves, and Makooma brought 1000 points of Tau. We played three matches, Winning two and losing one (Makooma will cover the BatRep). So, here is my individual unit breakdown. I wanted to do this because I feel it offers readers an intimate

 That's right...ShotDownMind and General Oadius did it again. The gods of war have rewarded our persistence and dedication to the pursuit of victory with yet another fruit from the tree of battle. Hard fought victories make the spoils that much sweeter and this was no seal clubbing. In fact we were forced to face off against MadJohn and Santa our respected peers and forum mates for 1st place.

The Thousand Sons fellowship of High Sorcerer Matt ready for War! Like all armies, this one started as a pile of bits (and still has a few to go!)  Once everything was put back together it was all given a very rough white primering! Most of these models were already primed white or blue or both. Some were painted in various manners. Sprayed right over all of it! Then I installed the initial

 As Ahriman crusades through the Warp and across the galaxy in search of knowledge and power, I am painting his Army for commission to tabletop standard. Today, we get to play in the dirt!  Started with a few big scoops of potting soil. All over the internets you will find warnings about fertilizer and soil pests or pathogens, with instructions to wash and cook your dirt. Blah blah. Use cheap

Painting the Thousand Sons to a tabletop standard - we wanted these guys to end up bright blue, yellow and gold - with hardcore basing effects, this force is on its way to the Gates of The Fang itself!   I went about 'updating' the blue that was already installed on the tanks. A lot of damage had occurred during the years of transport and of course the rebuilding effort. The first coat of blue

In the spirit of all the effort put forth by Shotdownmind and Ultraraider to build a sensational Grey Knight Army, I decided to paint a model all by myself. Yes, I know it's crazy but I did it anyways. The fact is when I saw this Finecast model, I just had to have it.

  The Grey Knight Army of General Oadius is at an awesome stage. Ready for initial OSL effects army-wide, its really about to come-to-life beyond the tabletop level. Just in time, I know that General Oadius is chomping at the bit to shoot at you with multiple Psyfleman Dreads, and more... The Army has a healthy mixture of "old" pewter GK/Inquisitorial models. Once mustered in full, everyone got

The Grey Knight Army is progressing at rapid speed. This article will detail the Inquisitorial Section of this awesome force - handle with care! Starting with the underpaining of course. Coteaz and some other models were already built and primed when I got them. Since the underpainting for the army would include a black stage I didnt worry about the 3 color primer, the henchmen would end up as

 General Bass and General Oadius traveled to Antioch last weekend, Sunday November 13th, to the Battle Bunker for some 1500pt Tournament action. Local players and participants from the bay area open were there for some fierce competition and a good time was had by all! I played my Dark Eldar Drecht list, General Oadius played a Blood Angels mech list. I will post my list at the end for your

 General Oadius' Grey Knight Army is coming along nicely! The entire 2500pt+ "School List" starter lineup is easily at "tabletop" standard and beyond.  Just finishing the ink on a the dreads and some of the foot units. Then various OSL throughout the army will get its first installment via airbrush!  Death begins when the Inquisition appears. They want you to see them. Its too late once you

   In the Warhammer 40k Universe, The Imperium of Man is a kingdom surrounded in all directions by darkness and war, knee deep in enemies beyond count. Against these vast threats stand the Legion of Oadius, "...an army so pure of Purpose as to be utterly beyond temptation. They are the Emperor's final boom to Mankind, an army of unfaltering and incorruptible warriors... They are the Grey Knights.

Did you know that the Inquisition has an enslaved Void Dragon and legions of "freed" Necrons at their disposal? They do, and that is damn cool right? Last week I built a bunch of stuff:  Rhinos and Razorbacks and Dreadnoughts AND a StormRaven - it was intense, my thumb was sore!  I had never built a Stormraven or any Dreadnoughts before, this was a lot of fun. General Oadius put together the

A few weeks ago General Oadius had me run up these Grey Knight Terminators as test models for his new army, coming to a game store near you soon. I went as overboard as I was comfortable with lighting and other effects all over the models. Epic Awesomeness was the name of the game - these guys have fought though One Thousand Years of the Warp on their own only to show up with cooler weapons then

Fellow Generals, A MASSIVE apocalypse game was on the menu Saturday october 29th at the Games Workshop store, oakridge mall, San Jose California. I dusted off my chaos minions and set forth with destruction in mind, I will post the list I played as well.

Tyranids have been my not-so-secret 40k obsession for quite some time now. Long ago a "big" box game was released called Tyranid Attack! It was awesome - I dont remember ever playing THAT game, or if it came out before or after Space Hulk. Nevertheless my best pal and I played many a game of 2nd Edition 40k using those models, and Tyranids are just plain cool in every way imaginable.  Recently

These guys are fresh and ready to take on the new Necron tide! The Green OSL on the grenade was done by hand, what do you think? Everything got several treatments with the airbrush at various stages a long the way - the OSL on these two jokers was achieved using mostly airbrush tricks! As many as 1/3 of the models in this project have some sort of OSL work beyond the blue eyes. More to come,

  Mission Three was Spearhead deployment and the mission objective determined at the Top of turn 3. On a 1-2 Annihilation, 3-4 Table Quarters, and 5-6 Terrain Features (as objectives.) My opponent was pleased to explain all the ins and outs of the Black Templar codex while slowly revealing that he had not 1, not 2, but 4 lance-proof Land Raiders. One with terminators, another with the Emperors

Mission Two at Ardboyz Semi Finals had one objective in the center of the board. Only troops could score and the winner had to have more troops inside 6" at the end of the game. My strategy for this mission was to go first and stuff my opponent into his deployment zone, engage everything with the wyches and then score with the wracks and any surviving warriors or wyches.  I went first and

Taking into account points cost, survivability and killing potential. In my opinion, the best unit in the Tyranid codex is the Genestealer.

At long last, the Garden is fully painted. With the completion of Lemartes and the Death Company there is only basing that remains. This unit is MVP nearly every game and is a nigh unstoppable force. 31 attacks @ WS 5, INI5, STR5 with rerolls to HIT and WOUND, another 4 Power Weapons and 3 more Power Fist attacks...not to mention Lemartes when Fury Unbound attacks 7 times at WS5, INI7, STR6

General Oadius thought he would show off this insane army with it's hand painted goodness. you may want to pause a few times to check out the details... Those are Astorath's legs on Mephiston..Mike says to use oven mitts when dremeling pewter for more than a few seconds, he learned the hard way. I mentioned in the last blog that Mike/Ultraraider won best paint at the Bay Area Open GT.

Hey everyone! It's Makooma. I know you don't know me yet but let me introduce myself. I am the best Warhammer 40k player to ever live. Don’t believe me? Well here is some evidence: I have never lost a game of 40k. How was that? There may have been times when according to the rules I "lost" but really I threw the game to keep my friends from giving up on the hobby. I am just an awesome guy like

So this is the final countdown for the Bay Area Open GT. I have completed yet another major piece of the list, the Assault Marine Rhino. I'm down to the Stormraven and 11 Death Company in 4 days. Wish me luck! TILL NEXT TIME....PLAY WELL, ROLL BETTER!!!

Yet another piece of the Garden List is now fully painted. Feast your eyes on the Auto Cannon, Las Cannon sponson Predator. It's a great can opener and sometimes it even contests an objective. I need to paint a rhino, stormraven and 11 death company by Friday night. 7 games in 2 days is going to be epic. UNTIL NEXT TIME.....PLAY WELL, ROLL BETTER!!!

"Nayef the Destroyer" awakens to find himself enclosed within a sarcophagus and his new Terminator Armor. "Nayef" earned his paint job by sending a great many enemy vehicles and infantry to their demise. So stay tuned for more of the "Garden" units being completed. TILL THEN...PLAY WELL, ROLL BETTER!!!
