Support a cause, win some terrain…
Terrain tutor over on youtube is having a competition, get over to his page and support him..
His justgiving page is here:
https://www.justgiving.com/h4h-battlezones
Basically Mantic gave him the full deadzone set, so he’s making some nonspecific gaming terrain with it (its looking pretty sweet so far), and auctioning it off for Help for heroes so if you fancy wining it, head over pop some dosh down and cross yer fingers :)
So this:

Now points to this blog.
And it’s an interesting tale as how how.. involving Some confusion on my part, and a large dollop of decency on the part of a fellow 40k blogger, Fritz.
I was looking through the blogroll as one does and saw a link with my blogname in the title, I got a wee bit excited to think Id been linked and by prominent blogger in the form of Fritz, whose Way of Saim Hann I’d been following for a long time..
I was surprised then to see this:
I posted a comment saying that this was the same name as my established blog and within half an hour had an email from Fritz. Thankfully, as I had originally been a bit taken aback, he was lovely.
Long story short Several emails later I was left hugely impressed by his decency and the proud owner of a .com, Fritz has defaulted to an alternate name and has started his new blog here at: http://www.berserkersofskallathrax.com/
If it ends up anything like his Saim Hann blog it will be an awesome read :) Please go check it out and support this affable and decent fellow blogger :)
Meanwhile relax and enjoy the benefits of your links now automatically redirecting to a spacious and well appointed .com..
Seriously though, nothing will change :)
A few weeks back I was fortunate to be party to a “Happening” as Casa Zzzzzz.
(the Players:Myself, PVP, Andy BG, Courtney, and Martin
Gaming, charred flesh, (both the barbeque and the unfortunate effects of sun + pale gamer skin) ale and fire made for an excellent man weekend.
Pictures, and some attempt to describe the game follow.
Upon arrival a bunch of gangs were laid out with character sheets, special rules and a briefing summarised on a shingle sheet. these were by turns amusing, inspired and terribly unlikely to come to pass.
By way of example i got the local constabulary as my initial force, three fast moving squad cars with 4 guys armed with shotguns in each, a riot squad in a repressor and the instruction to capture (ie subdue in CC) a member of each gang.
something which initially went very well for me with a quick snatch of a member of the cawdor gang to my right under Coutney’s control, but soon because a bad day for the officers of sector house 23 when a large heavily armed gang under Martins control laid waste to the force on the right.
Even the riot squad got shot up immobilised and pinned behind their ride. seems everyone likes to shoot at cops
I’ll be honest, I think my own tactical genius was to my detriment here, while others had forces wiped out and selected new gangs to re-enter the fray with, I managed to keep the beleaguered Arbites alive far longer than they were a viable threat for. ;)
throughout which all kinds of shenanigans were going on around me, with gangs giving way to organised cultists, Chaos marines appearing followed by agents of the inquisition – goat men, a T-Rex, Brothers of the Black Templars and even the Perfidious Eldar, whom I took control of in the form of a unit of striking scorpions charged with eliminating the veterans of the long war who had chosen to interfere in this internecine conflict.
I ended my time with them with objective accomplished thanks to a ill considered charge form Andy’s chaos marines, and the Exarch managing to slip away thanks to some ingenious shenanigans whereby a goat-mans corpse was used to lure the T-Rex into taking an interest in the Black Templars.
I attach below a further selection of shots form the day.. 
A Glorious day of nerdery!
With the usually scheduled Fri/Mon posts this marks my 8th blog post in a row, and most of them have actually had content!
Its actually great fun blogging more consistently and were it not for that pesky day job I might do more of it. My usual schedule is twice a week, and I more often than not schedule those well in advance. in fact I have adopted the habit of using my holidays to binge on hobby and setting up a bunch of posts to occur throughout the coming half term.
Sure sometimes the wheels fall off and life gets in the way but then we all know that happens.
Anyway for those who missed my busy week of posts, here’s a recap:
Thanks for taking the time to read the guff I put up.I really do appreciate it.
I promised you I’d draw this today and here it is, on day six of my half term week of blogposts,
Drum roll please.
