Ork kommandos climb a rock face to attack an Ultramarines landing pad.

"Alright ladz, lets be proper sneaky, it's time to chop up some beakies!"

I'm sure they could be convinced to do a bit of kommando style scaling of a certain rock cliff...presumably they feel the need to loudly show off to all the other ladz how sneaky they are.

Thanks! I figured he should get a bit more screen time, since his arm was in it. Usually it's hard enough to keep him off the table (dice are a favourite offering)!

The first battle report in our campaign is now up, continuing the story from the last two videos. This is a 2nd ed 40k battle between chaos and space wolves, in a narrative style.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for taking the time to listen! I figured a narrative from the warband's perpective would be a nice way of writing things up. As ever with events, I never take as many photos as I should, hence the story framing around them getting ready to leave Krypt.

Thanks! It was a great weekend, and lovely of Ed to show off all of our old stuff on the Minisodes channel as well!

Thanks, that's lovely of you to say. I've wanted some of these sculpts for years, so it's been a pleasure to work on!

Thanks! The fiends in particular are really nice models to go bold colours on!

Thanks, that's really kind! Eye gougingly bright is great fun to paint!

I had an absolute blast at the 2nd Heads event organised by Ed from Minisodes at the weekend. A couple of games of 2nd edition (including a huge 3000pt a side one where we managed to get all my Chaos horde out), a game of Space Crusade, and a great time with like minded folk!

I find that it's best not to think about ebay purchases in too much detail...😅

It was an absolute joy to play it again after 30 something years. Thanks for bringing it down to the event!

Cheers! It's been lovely to work on these old models!

Yeah, I know, but it's nice to hear it again 😜 Thanks again for designing all the great tanks and bits of terrain, it really helps get into the period vibe!

Thanks, that's really kind! It's been a load of fun to collect amd paint.

Thanks! Yeah, the pink is eye searingly bright!

Thank you! Having that Dreadnought model has been on my wishlist for 30 odd years, so it was great to finally do one!

Cheers! Yeah, the old sculpts are so characterful, I felt I needed to lean into it with the oldschool banners!

Thanks! It's been really fun working on them!

Because I managed to forget to post it with the other models, my 1500pt 2nd edition #40k #chaos force is rounded with a Retro Evil Knight Battle Tank, designed by @doctorspork.bsky.social

And the link specifically to the youtube recording. This was quite a lot of fun to do, though I had to spend quite a while reminding myself how adobe Premiere! #oldhammer
