Unleash the Hogs of War

I'll be honest, not much to say about these Blood Axe Boar Boyz I just really wanted to use the "Hogs of War" as a title.

The Blood Axe army is in something of a limbo state right now. The current build for Orks in 40K right now is designed to play the more punch-in-the-face style of warfare specialized by Goffs and Snakebites. The Blood Axes don't play that way so I'll be working on them slowly in preparation for the Codex next year. Then it's time to get sneaky.

Shhhhh.... Waaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!

 

So...much...YELLOW!

 

Been a spell since my last post here. No excuses, just laziness on my part. That, said I haven't been idle. First up, here's a bit of an image dump showing the current state of my Imperial Fists. With the new 10th Ed Space Marine Codex up for release soon, I thought it time to plan the last few elements of the army before it all gets changed. At time of posting, everything shown here is still going to play with the new codex, but the Command Squad I have converted up will be going to legends. Arguably I'll be able to break up the squad as individual characters, but it's still annoying to finish a squad just in time to be made redundant.

Ah well, on the positive side, I'm still really enjoying 40K and the army is still fun to play with and I am incredibly pleased with the overall progress I've made up to now.

The Callidus Assassin was an odd ball addition to make up some points, but has since earned her place as a regular part of the army. Able to nerf enemy stratagems and threaten characters has forced a few opponents to rethink their targets just to see her off the board.

To round out the army, I'm going to add a couple of cheap units to fill gaps and I've a Redemptor Dreadnought on the bench that could use something to do. Probably get a scout unit to start the ball rolling though.

Next up a few images from a game I played last month. Really I just wanted to show off my friends absolutely insane converted Wardog. Long term, I'm told he's planning a Bloodbourne themed Chaos knight army, but if this beast is anything to go by, he could be a whils before we see anything else.

And that's all for now.
