FOX


Photobucket


Isn't the cutest?

I make a habit of incorporating something foxy in all my armies. Death Korps NATYA (count as Marbo) has a pet fox on her base. My Daemons had a Fox changeling (that works really well me thinks). Eldar have a fox as an objective marker. My in progress Space Wolves will probably have a Firefox Mounted Wolf Lord (hehe). I have inbound some Thunderwolves from Mrdandy and one of them is getting a fluffier tail :)

This sort of recurring theme is important for me as it makes something feel like "mine". Now I'm trying to figure out which Marine chapter rules would work best for my Space Foxes chapter. I've been thinking vanilla with Shrike. I want them stealthy, trixy and psychic. Maybe a future codex will provide a better base. No rush, have too many projects as is.

Pre-heresy Thousand Sons (well, GK in red)

Some Purifiers. Plan is Henchmen+Purifiers, but I've made a Strike Squad member test model, which I can photo later.

Yeah, sort of

Conditions for creativity are to be puzzled; to concentrate; to accept conflict and tension; to be born everyday; to feel a sense of self.

Foxes!

I love foxes! Who doesn't? You must be mad or just lack vital EVERYTHINGS if you don't...

Anyway, I collect those lil things and try very hard to incorporate them in my armies (popular objective markers, one became the Changeling for my Daemons).

So, if you know any, please tell me! Currently I have:

Fox familiar (from Reaper):



and Kitsune with fox form (from Bushido):



I also tracked down an old Gyrinx, whilst not a fox, still cool!



So, give me more foxes!

Plan is to true-scale a Mephiston out of termie legs and the Master of the Ravenwing jetbike torso.

Two comp lists

I missed a tournament with composition limit of 60, using the swedish composition model, which you can find here: http://svenska40k.se/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=2582

But that didn't stop me from musing on potential list.

I came up with two, using my collection of Dark Angels/Space Lions. Mostly I try to abuse the cheapness of the Iron Priest on TWM to hide a cheapish Lord.

Latest tournament list

Played in a swedish tourney with the swedish composition system.

The Comp points were set to 25, 1750points, 3 games with composition not really affecting anything beside army building. Link to swedish comp model here: http://svenska40k.se/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=2582

Long Fangs [4] All w. Close combat weapon, Frag and krak grenades, 3 w. Missile Launchers, Leader with Bolt pistol

The list worked good and I got the chance to play against the new Dark Eldar which spurred my enthusiasm for my next project... Drawed in first game against mech Imperial Guard, mostly due to sucky diff and fleet rolles for wolfstar. Won the next against orks very big and had another major win against Dark Eldar. Landed me on second place out of 18. I think I'm beginning to grasp 5th ed.

Nest up: some idea of a combination of Slaanesh, Eldar and Dark Eldar. Time to get good at painting I suppose.
