Battle of the11th Legion update 28/11/2012

Hey guys,
We have not forgot the Battle of 11th Legion. Me and deathbringa are working hard to get are 600 point list completed. I have been working very hard to get them complete and a tad closer after a mad blitz over the last few week.
This is mainly due to my new desk. I have everything set out now and is alot easier to work from.

Battle of the 11th Legion, 600 points Progress report (Orks) WeirdBoy Finished!

The WeirdBoy is complete and I am one small step closer to facing off against Spud in the first Battle of the 11Th Legion battle report at 600 Points.

Battle of the 11th Legion, 600 points Progress report (Orks)

This is just a very short progress update on the Orks for the Battle of the 11th Legion, As I am sure a lot of you are aware that you have to be in the right kind of mood to paint sometimes...

Anyway got back into the mood late this evening (about 22:30) and I have made a little progress on the Ork WeirdBoy. made a start on the bone coloured bits and his chains and staff. As you can see below:

Now I am having most of the 11Th Legion over for a hobby day on Saturday so hopefully I will get some shots of what the other guys are working on (unless they post them themselves...) I find these kind of hobby days useful as they help you get back on track with what ever your current project is especially if you work full time like most of the 11Th Legion....

All being well I will start painting the WeirdBoy's unit of Ork Shoota Boys, and who knows, even the Lootas will get some paint on them!

Also what do you all think of the new banner?? I think its great, and it was made for us. So thanks.

One final note, we are now on the Faeit212 blog roll, so check him out (unless you came here from his blog, in which case you already know), great blog with logs of good rumours, and good gaming articles.

anyway thats all from me for now,

DeathBringa Out!

Battle of the 11th Legion, 600 points Progress report (Space Marines)

Hello everybody,
So I am been told my evil counter part Deathbringa has posted his sneaky dirty greenskin list up.  
Well I will post my 600point army list and the the WIP's of the army up to date.
With it been 600 points I wanted my list as kinda search army. As this be the 1st time I encounter the Orks I did't want it too elitey. I wanted a quick and easy list just to slow down the pesky orks from there main invasion.

The sterngaurd have had a small ajusment to there bolter with the rod on the barrel just to look like the have special bolters to the other marines in the army.

I would love hear what you guys think. I will be cracking on with some tactical marines and sterngaurd this week. Then work towards building my drop-pod. I still need to buy a Razorback Or as I have 4 rhinos and 1 whirlwind already I would like to convert one of the previous models with magnets so I can swap the hatch around game to game.

Thank you so much for reading.

Peace Spud

Battle of the 11th Legion, 600 points Progress report (Orks)

Well, its been quite a while since my last post and I thought it was about time that I posted what I have been busy doing with my Orks.

We are going to build our 600 point list using a slightly modified force organisation chart, with max 1 HQ and  Min 1 troop with the rest being normal.

So I decided to use the following list:

WeirdBoy: Warphead

15 Ork Shoota boys: Nob: Eavy Armour, Boss Pole, Big Shoota, Power Klaw

BattleWagon: Kannon, Big Shoota, Deff Rolla, Grot Riggers

2 DeffKoptas: Twin-Linked Rokkit Launchas

1 WarBuggy: Twin-Linked Rokkit Launcha

8 Lootas

Here's a few pics of my progress:

My custom BattleWagon (which has been a project off and on for quite some time):

Its time to explain in a bit more detail what we have planned for the Battle of the 11th Legion.

I will be building a Ork Speedfreak army, while Spud will be taking the venerable Crimson Fists....

Hello everyone,

Thank you for everybodys support so far for the 11th Legion. Myself (Spud) and the other lads have been coming up with a plan over the last few days to make and create our own campaign. Using the current 40k rulebook with minor tweaks. Most the ideas are still in pencil at the moment but we will keep you updated. 

Some of the interests in 11th Legion campaign:

• 5 Campaign Games all with battle reports
• Army modelling/painting progress reports
• Hero experiance

That is a super small list but we want everything  to be enjoyable for you and our selves.

Thank you for reading.
