    ROTDOG's Staff 40k Tale of X Gamers

    Hey all,

    The staff at Roll Of The Dice Online Games are all taking up their toolkits and paintbrushes to put together 1000pt armies in expectation of 40k 6th edition. Each staff member will be updating the blog each week with their progress (or lack thereof) and we will eventually be putting together scenery and objective markers too when not testing our army selection against one another. Below are a couple of models I have already finished as well as links to the first lot of articles. Please feel free to comment or offer up ideas!

    Craven begrudgingly comes back to Games Workshop. Its Chaos for the army challenge but he's doing it his own way!

    High Commisaar of ROTDOG, Big Boss Andy talks about what he has planned for his Imperial Guard in today's Tale of X Gamers!

    http://rotdog.co.uk/blog/?p=4029

    I converted up some rough riders for Andy after having fun fielding some in my traitor guard army. Andy had a good idea of what he wanted and how he would like them to look. Playing with Mordians they needed to fit in with his theme. So he ordered a box of Empire pistoliers and handed over some bits boxes filled with dark elf, cadian and metal mordian pieces. This is what I came up with.

    Seargent




    Special wepon trooper


    Guardsman


    Andy talks about his Rough Riders here: http://rotdog.co.uk/blog/?p=3845

    Dan talks Tyranids and is lucky enough to be using an army that is getting some reinforcements in March.

    Thank you. Though the original ideas came from the Eavy Metal guide for this figure I wanted a more Cybork lean. That is a masked Nob head with an iron gob and a funnel from another cybork nob head glued on. The shoota is now a skorcha and the klaw has been modified with another iron gob and a harpoon! Currently I am painting a wierdboy.

    The only top tier codex being used in our Tale of X Gamers. How does Babcock justify this overt display of competitiveness?

    Boss Man Andy has expanded his 500pts to fit in with our army challenge. But will it allow him win a game and can we believe that there will be painting?

    What is the plan for the Dark Eldar? Babcock elaborates.

    While I badger the staff for pictures of their burdgeoning armies here is a Talos conversion that is sitting on one of my shelves awaiting attention.

    Andy looks up from his hobby efforts, not to scan passers by for the tell tale scent of doughnuts but to tell us about his HQ choice!

    Sid extoles the virtues of one Pedro Kantor and elaborates on what advantages he brings to the table.

    http://rotdog.co.uk/blog/?p=4576

    Dan has chosen a Tervigon to be his one and only HQ choice, good idea or no?

    Plus I have finished painting my wierdboy!

    Meanwhile Babbers is practicing medicine without a license with his thoughts on wracks.
