Mordrak & Ghostwing in 6th Edition 40K



A New Dawn for Mordrak & his Ghost Knights

Welcome back ladettes and fiends. You came to this blog to find out more about how Grey Knight Grandmaster Mordrak, and his ghostly bodyguard, fare in this brand spanking new 6th edition of Warhammer 40K, didn’t you?
Of course you did.

Draigo - An alternative model?



In the last game of the dying gasp of 5th edition, I took to the field of battle with Draigo and his ChuckNorris-wing Paladins in a mega apocalypse battle, where they tore through their enemies like a hot knife to butter. In this instance I used my Mordrak model as a counts-as Draigo, and I must admit I like the taste of it. I must have. I must have Draigo!

But what to do, when I detest the finecast model absolutely so? I'm not a fan of the pose, the 'look' and feel of the model, and the overly busy aesthetic of the model covered in chains, pennants, seals, writing, etc. I know Draigo has to look suitably impressive for the Eternal Grandmaster of the ass-kickin' Grey Knight chapter, but I prefer my models looking a little bit more graceful.

The Arrival of 6th Ed.

It's here!

I've finally got my copy of the new 6th edition rulebook. Will spend the next week or two digesting the rules, re-learning the ropes as one would say.

Warhammer 40k 5th ed. is dead.

Long live 6th!

Surveying the remnants

Round 3 & 4 of the mega-final 5th edition apocalypse game we've been playing here at Wednesday Night Gaming. Truly a send-off to the last edition.

One Last Apocalypse


Alas poor 5th edition, I knew him, per ratio...

It's the last gasp 5th edition mega-apocalypse battle we here at Wednesday Night Gaming have only ever dreamed of! A full on 8700 points battle (complete with Buckfast Bottle Titan) on both sides, using *most* of our complete collection for a straightforward Annihilation battle, just like wot you sees in dem White Dwarf battle-reports innit?

On leave


Has it been a year already? Wow.

The Cadian 512th here, embarking on the next Valkyrie off this dustball for a nice, relaxing vacation in the lush, verdant jungles of Catachan.

Toodles for now, see you all in a fortnight.
