Ron NOVA painting preparation - 7 weeks out

Hey guys!

Ron here with my to-do painting list for NOVA.  This series will hopefully help me conquer the grey tide I need to paint for NOVA, and provide you ample opportunities to ridicule my painting abilities!

You got a purty mouth

Waaagh! Ghazghkull First Look

Ok, it's a little later than most of our "First Looks," but with the holiday weekend and fantastic weather, I wasn't hanging out with my computer much. Anyway, let's take a look at the supplement about the most famous Ork Warboss of all.

White Dwarf #23 - Planetstrike

The thirty strong termagant blob and you: How I came to loathe the Tervigon tax.

Hey everyone, BeeCee here...

Wow, it's been a long time since I've had a chance to talk to you. Real life has taken a turn for insanity this summer but things look to be slowing down a little bit more.

I wanted to talk about something that I have been struggling with as a Tyranid player and in talking to the other guys on this blog, I realized I'm not the only one. The question is, "How do I effectively use the thirty strong termagant brood required to unlock my Tervigon?"

Hi, we're not just in units of 10 anymore.

Facing the Grey Tide Podcast - Episode 10: SpikeyCon and Quick Army List Building

What's up everyone?  This week on the Podcast Ron, Evan, and Chandler break down their weekend at SpikeyCon, how the Tournament went, the fun games we got to try out, and breaking down a couple of lists that Chandler was making for a fellow Space Wolf Buddy.  The boys also break down their thoughts on The People's Missions made by the crew over at Forge the Narrative.  We Love the missions and we talk about our thoughts and the armies that we went up against in the Iron Man Tournament.

We can't wait to get to our next tournaments and send a Trio to NOVA.

Enjoy the Episode!

Flying Monstrous Creatures - What do we do with them?

What's up everyone? After thinking about my first 4 games of 7th Edition, what the prevailing armies are, and after Evan's post on some early tournament data, I realized that the Flying Monstrous Creatures have become one of the stronger aspects of the armies. Yet, they aren't invincible, they can be harmed, but what are the options for doing this? How do we attack them, try to ground them, and what can we do to bring the pain?

Now most of the tactics for bringing down the FMCs will be relegated to the Nids, but I feel that the tactics can be applied to the Demons as well. Actual flyers though are still a different beast that can have similar tactics applied to but still need a bit of finesse.
