Bat Rep: Twilight Fight - 1,500 Points - Blood Angels vs. Space Wolves

A couple weekends ago, Chandler and I got in our casual "Twilight Fight, Team Jacob vs. Team Edward" Game. Chandler brought some hard punching Space Wolves to counter my hodgepodge Flesh Tearers posing as Blood Angels. We set up the board to show off a bit our new G-Mat from Gamemat.eu, which inspired the narrative element of our game as well.

Painting: Malifaux Gremlins

My hobby time recently has been focused on my Gremlins, and I've been pretty happy with the progress I've made so far. Last weekend, I put the finishing touches on The Kin crew box, as well as several other models that were of interest or partially painted already.

What is up Everyone? This week on the Podcast, Evan, Chandler, and Bryan come together to just talk about the hobby, some fun games we have had over the last couple of weeks, and projects that everyone is working on.  With the Holiday season just around the corner, everyone is looking to get things wrapped up before the end of the year.  Bryan runs down his latest Blood Angels project, Evan talks about Malifaux and some of the 40k games he has played in the last couple of weeks, and Chandler talks about his Malifaux crew he is working on and trying to beat down some Blood Angels in a Malestrom game.
