Imperial Knights Codex

I got the Imperial Knights Codex early. I mainly got it for the fluff, art, painting ideas. Perhaps in the future I will make an army list with them. I plan on getting the other book with all the fluff in it also. But that will have to wait till next month I think.

Here are 3 pictures I took of the inside of the book, enjoy.

Flames of War Jordanians vs Israelis

Good old Flames of War, how I missed you. Been way to long not playing any Flames of War. I got a game in with a few friends, a 2v2 game. Richard and Mark (Jordanians) VS Pat (Israelis).

With the Jordan forces hold up in the center of the map, Pat and I come up with a plan to move towards one flank of their line and let our Jets take out the back end of their forces. Killing off and holding up part of their forces on the first turn. It allowed me to take down another tank near a building with some tanks.

My AA Half-tracks hiding behind some wrecks for cover.

I take a hill and fire from a hull down position, losing one tank I fall back behind the hill for cover.  A good exchange of armor.

Pat after gun dueling for a turn or two moves out of the tree line area and pivots towards me heading to the Jordanian infantry in the open.

Enemy tanks trying to reposition and to engage Pat's armor forces

Our Jet finishes off a Tank

In the end we destroyed pretty much every piece of armor on the board while losing two tanks, we called the game for the infantry unit on the objective was pretty much out gunned with multiple tanks and half-tracks about the run them over.

Not show was Pat's infantry unit heading into town towards the 2nd objective. It was a good game and someday I will have to get some units of my own painted up. I thank those that let me use their forces so that I could play also.

Happy gaming people!

Games Workshop Imperial Knight!!!

Ok, I have one on order and I really want it because I so loved Titans from 40K. I so want to paint one up and figured why not. Anyone else out there picking this up next week? Depending how the build goes I may start digging through some old White Dwarf mags for more information.

[Sails of Glory] Another fine day of playing, sorry no pictures.

I was pretty excited about playing today after Fridays game.  Though I didn't take pictures Richard and I both tried the 2 vs 2 Ships of the Line (SOL). We then took a break and did another 1v1 with little Frigates, all I can say is they are so damm fast!

Gaming gaming gaming!! Sails of Glory and Command and Colors Napoleonics

I finally got a few games in, it has been ages. Mainly due to having a major stress out on trying to get a new job. Good news I got the job and so far so great!

Sails of Glory, two games from last week and one today. This game thus far is fun fun fun. I am still trying to figure out controlling ships so they don't crash.

Pictures from last weeks two games. I didn't do a battle report because I was to busy playing and having fun.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These two pictures are from today's game.

My two ships crash into one another and Richards two also do the same. Collisions are painful.

Commands & colors: Napoleonics

Played this fairly recently. At first it looked like I was doing well until my left flank got crushed!

I haven't posted anything lately

Sorry for not posting anything lately. I haven't had a miniature game in for over a month. I did get a few things to work on. With trying to stress over getting a new job, and my friend in the hospital, work scheduling and the like.  I hope to get inspired on working on something soon.

Here are few thing I hope to posting soon enough.

Flames of War mini rule book now on for sale.

It seems for $15 you can now buy the mini rule book. A win in my book!!!

Compare that with the Games Workshop $50 dollar mini rule book. Granted the FOW book will fall apart but for $6-$12 you can get it bound it still is a better value then the GW mini book.
