Posted by Lord Shaper on 26 February 2010 The new Games Workshop rulebook FAQ came out today. The changes are minimal and not as exiting as the Ork codex, but It is still important to have a grasp (and a copy) of the FAQ especially when it applies to the main rules.

Posted by Lord Shaper on 15 February 2010 Lets take a look inside the upcoming Battle Missions book courtesy of The Astronomican blog. Here is a reported listing of the missions: This is reminding me alot of the old 40K battles book for second editions which brought more to your battles at least 10 years ago.

Posted by Lord Shaper on 13 February 2010 After looking for a way to fix the issues I had with the dull coat I’ve went over them with a gloss and it seems to have fixed it all!

Posted by Lord Shaper on 2 February 2010 I am only just getting back into 40k after being absent from it since early 2001. So it’s been a while for me and also I haven’t painted since at least 2006/7 so I am trying to relearn the dipping of the brush so to speak… That being said here is the start of my Tau Cadre.

Posted by Lord Shaper on 27 January 2010 Just as an update with my eBay sales, along with a reminder, There is currently 4 days to go on the auctions and as well as the window that needs to be paid for we have found out my son needs an operation to have his eardrum fixed so all the money from these sales is to go towards the cost of his operation. I think that that is more important than a smashed window on the car. If...

Posted by Lord Shaper on 22 January 2010 As I had the idea for this last night but apart from putting up the site I haven’t managed to come up with a name for it. If anyone has any ideas feel free to leave them in the comments and I’ll also put my thoughts in there so I can come up with something that fits what I want to do here.

Posted by Lord Shaper on 22 January 2010 Beasts of War have been doing a heap of Videos on the new Tyranid Codex which was released late last week and they have been going in depth with anything Tyranid. I haven’t played anything from the Nid’s since Second edition of Warhammer 40 000 where I had an undefeated Genestealer Cultist army. Since that form of army doesn’t exist anymore I haven’t looked...

Posted by Lord Shaper on 22 January 2010 I’ve been an avid wargamer for years but due to moving and kids among other things I have moved out of the field of gaming. That being said I have recently had the itch for getting into it again and have started painting miniatures again. This website is going to be infrequently updated with photos of what I’ve been painting as I have pulled out all of my old painting...
