40K game day at Jack’s!
With Dave W wanting to get in some practice games for a friendly narrative tournament he’s got at the end of the month, we scheduled a game day at Jack’s to let him get some practice in.

This will be updated over the next couple of days, but here are the pictures from the big 20,000pt Apocalypse game at Warhammer World!
DW’s friend Wiggy was up from the South to pay a visit to Warhammer World, so we took the opportunity to make it a day for a 3-person mini-tournament!
We only had 8 hours to get in 3 games. Each one of us would play twice, playing everyone in round-robin fashion. We used the Maelstrom of War missions (using the Tactical Objectives), rolling randomly to decide the mission. The first two players were decided by rolling a die, with Wiggy and David playing first. Frank got to sit and see Wiggy’s Mechanicum force in action! The overall winner would be decided by the total of Victory Points earned in every game!!

Two games with the Hammertime 40K crew today! Most of us were able to show up and get in a 2 vs 1 game starting just before noon, and around 3 we started a 4-player free-for all using the just-released Carnage rules from Black Library. Game 1: Dark Angels defending
Not sure if these are worth a tenner, but these are the highlights of the new Cypher rules the Black Library released this week, from a user on Something Awful: I grabbed the new Cypher dataslate against my better judgment so here’s a quick summary: Cypher is 190 points with
So I’ve been collecting a lot of Space Wolf stuff (but not painting much of it 🙁 ) and thought it would be worthwhile posting an update of the army so far:
Still being a relative novice in the world of 6th edition 40K & following of a run of heavy defeats in the campaign, I decided to call up my old master, to seek guidance and see if we could rustle up a game to pick up some pointers…
