Hello everyone !!!

Engine War is the seventh chapter of the Psychic Awakening saga, and it brings a whole host of new rules and models for the Adeptus Mechanicus. Today we’re taking a closer look at the book, including the reinforcements that will soon be executing the will of the Omnissiah across the battlefields of the 41st Millennium.

The Pteraxii

The Pteraxii are cyborg warriors equipped with flight packs. They come in two different units, the Sterylizors, who are honed for aggression…

…and the Skystalkers, who seek out the best vantage points from which to pick off targets with their flechette carbines.

the Archaeopter

The new kit builds three different unit options – The Transvector is an aerial transport craft, capable of delivering your infantry in speed, style and safety.

If you prefer bombers, choose the Fusilave and drop payloads of ground-penetrating, tectomagnic bombs that cause seismic shock waves.

Finally, the Stratoraptor is the ground-attack variant, soaring in to strafe targets with its heavy phosphor blasters.

The kit is incredibly customisable, with optional wargear and the ability to be built in flying or landed mode, with the landing skids and legs modelled in different positions.

Serberys cavalry

Only the finest Skitarii are promoted into the corps of Serberys cavalry. Once there, some of them join the Raiders, long-range scouts who excel in outflanking enemy units.

Others join the Sulphurhounds, shock line-breakers who smash through defensive positions, leaving no survivors.

Conclusion

Very cool steampunk vibe with these new models. I am more and more attracted to the different style this army is having. Honestly, the models look very cool and very jules verne-sque.

Still not a big fan of the GW metal paints ^^

Hello again everyone !!

from gw :

Cancelling events and preview shows in light of COVID-19 has left us all feeling a little blue. Well, to bring a little joy to us all, we're making Lieutenant Amulius available through Made to Order for a very limited time! Secure your order in the next two weeks and we'll ship it to you when things get back to normal! We're sure you'll agree, that's a better kind of blue, and should give us all something to look forward to!

This multipart plastic model comes in 7 components and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round Base. You’ll find the full rules for a Primaris Lieutenant in Codex: Space Marines.

MADE TO ORDER

Lieutenant Amulius was one of the event-exclusive miniatures for the 2019-2020 season, but in light of recent events, we’ve made it available for a limited period of time as part of our Made to Order service.

Lieutenant Armulius will be available to order between Saturday 28th March and Friday 10th April inclusive - and we'll start shipping them out just as soon as we're able to open our factory and warehouse once again.

25 €

Hello everyone !! The saga of the Beast arrived today. I would usually whine about UPS delay but amidst the Covid19 outbreak I even feel bad for the UPS peoples.
Still, Saga of the beast is the sixth instalment of the Psychic Awakening Series, Aka 40k the Live Update before 9th hit the store ^^. This time the person of interests are Orcs, led by Ghaz with his awesome new model and Space Wolves led by Ragnar Blackmane, the Primaris Edition !

Let's jump right into it :

Saga of the Beast Fluff

As usual in the Psychic awakening series, there is no fluff progression. its more a picture of a battlefront between sw and orcs. In Saga of the Beast this is, even more apparent as the book only narrate battles after battles always with Spaces Wolves and orcs. Each time it's a different setting and cause so it's kind of a nice read but not change of the grand scale of things ^^


I like the one where a Spaces Wolves armoured division rushes the center of a speed waaagh to fight a looted Baneblade with a belt of orcs Psycker chained to it. When the SW reached it, the whole Whaaag teleported in the unknown ^^


Another one it's an army of Orcs mercenary that betray their client an imperial world and take the planet for themselves...(so Governor consider Orcs mercs as an option

In the end, these have no meaning on the grand scheme of narrative but it was an entertaining read!

Echoes of Awakening

Used to be my favourite part, not anymore ^^But one text block is an interesting :

Maybe it means new shinning spears kit ? or an exarch ? or maybe even Drastanta? I don't know maybe it's nothing will see Friday if they reveal something.

Another block worth a mention :

Death guards were bound to arrive at some point don't you think ? ?

Space wolves rules/fluff

Ragnar became a Primaris after a fight with Ghazghkull Thraka on Krongar ! usual story, near-death experience, transformation.
Ragnar stats were already shown and he's at 120 points. He's quite nice if you need to mow down Primaris Infantry ^^

New Space wolves rules

-Spaces wolves gain all the doctrines (with the nerf of course) and the other specials rules common to Spaces Marines.
- 2 new rules :

Savage Fury

Hunters Unleashed

Wow these 2 abilities combined help a lot :

16% more hit during assault Doctrine and 16% more hit (on unit hitting on 3+) during a charge...that'a 33% hit increase on regular troops ! Savage !!

Updated Datasheet & rules

This release
-All primaries unit integrated to the SPace wolves.
-Multiple Specific characters were Primarised, like wolf priest, battle leaders, wolf lord in phobos armor... apart from the Wolf Priest all these transformations are in name only, as they are exactly the same as the standard version from other SM books.Only the name of the pieces of equipment and rules were changed and that is a bit sad...
-Primaris wolf Priest is a Primaris Chaplain but with the Healing Balm Rules as per other Wolf Priest.
-Obscuration Discipline added (no surprise)
-Litanie of Battle added as well for SW chaplain equivalent

Vanguard warlord Traits

Regular traits for a warlord in Phobos

Stratagems

Three pages of Stratagems, i know that' s a lot but they incorporated all the major ones from SM dex and Chapter dex. Also you get a few SW specific like :

Touch of the wild

Extra hit on a 4+ !! damn that's hot stuff for Smash Captain strategies.

Knowledge of the foe

Yea ! i ate your characters ...So what?

Death grip bite

Double the damage of the wolves so it's good for one CP and combine super well with Space wolves added abilities.

SW specific prayers

Potentially as strong as an Orc Warchanter buff from AOS, but the targets are limited. Still, rules state that Wolf Priest know this litany besides their normal selection, so you can always use it when needed for a 100% increase in damage on basic CC attacks. A simple Intercessors Spaces Wolf unit can shred a lot of targets with this litany :

27 Attacks hitting on 2+ generating extra hit on 6+ should result in 27 hits, 9 wounds (on a 5+) with ap -1 and damage 2 that's an average of 9.5 wounds (based on a 3+ armoured vehicle) and if you compute the 4 Hammers attacks (3+ 3+ -3 damage 4) with a 52% of an extra hit that's a lot of pain.

Relics

Nothing incredible they also get access to generic relics from other SM books.

That wraps for the first part of the review! The book is decent, vital if you play SW or Orcs. I grow bored of the Psychic Awakening line of books... all this milking for a few changes or addition are BOooooring !

/Cheers.
Bob.

Hello everyone !!!

The Deadly Alliance expansion is a totally new, standalone quest to test your explorers – replete with high-risk, high-reward excursions to put an end to an alarming phenomenon called the Seethe. Besides the Zoat retinue character, including its card and full rules for using it in your games of Warhammer 40,000, the box is loaded with location tiles, tokens, and tons of cards to represent new threats and loot for your explorers to discover.

Cool a new extension for Blackstone Fortress and this time i should have time to paint the Zoat before playing ^^

Hello everyone !!!

Ragnar datasheet is floating online.

10 attacks on Charge !!! PA 4 and Dmg2, AkA, the Primaris blender ^^

ps : Cause of Nurgle i am not sure i will receive Sage of the Wolves (in time ? ever ?). No confirm from ups yet.

/Cheers.
Bob.

Hello everyone !!

Look like the price is 105£. The price is quite decent but it's still a bummer that you can't get Ghaz alone...

/Cheers.
Bob.

Hello everyone !!

Next Week on pre orders !

Orcs Vs SW box, this one was rumoured a long time ago and at last, it's a reality. Still if you just want Ghaz or Ragnar it's not optimal ^^
Also on pre-order the next Psychic Awakening Chapter.

/Cheers.
Bob.

Hello everyone !!!

Ghaz and Makari stats have been shown to the Internet ^^
Makari 4 Wounds Gretchin with a 2++ and a 6+++
Gahz is a Real Beast and has a Morathi-like ability preventing him from losing more than 4 Wounds per Phase.
It's fun that he gain more attack but loses str by getting wounded.

Btw i have no idea on how Ragnar is supposed to fight this beast and win ^^

/Cheers.
Bob.

ps : Good luck if you are on lockdown!
