List Review - the 'All-comers'


Greetings all, after re-starting my blog last month, I have decided to embark on a big project - reviewing the Codex Adeptus Astartes - all the way through. That doesn't mean a short list of what's good and what's not, I mean looking at the whole book, what's in it and whether it's any good.

The problem there is it's a big book (in case you hadn't noticed) so it's taking rather a while, and in the meantime nothing is going live on the blog.  So instead I decided to do a second list review. this comes in two parts - the first is a brief look at a 1k list I'd written, and the second part is a more detailed breakdown of how I expended the list to 2000 points in the hopes of it becoming my new 'default' list for matched play/more competitive style games.

List review - the armoured column



So, whilst it’s been a while since my blog reset (I’ve been doing lots of hobby, especially in relation to my YouTube channel) I’m finally getting round to writing some new content!

First up, in what’s very much a return to my happy place, I thought I’d take a look at the process I’ve gone through for creating a new, thematic Adeptus Astartes army list for my Swords of Dawn. As those regular readers of my blog will no doubt know, I don’t consider myself a competitive player, but I do like to be able to compete in a game (if that makes sense). None of us like losing, and whilst I’ve shed the need to keep a record of my win/loss ratio I don’t like to feel like I don’t have the tools or the list to win a particular game.

The Burning Eye - a fresh start

 

Nothing says a fresh start like deleting all your old content, right?

Well, that's what I did this evening.
