Assorted Side Projects

Having finished up the Escher gang and trying to generally play more games with the miniatures I have, I am also focusing on building out the components and tools for the games I have.

US Paratroopers and ECI Bersaglieri combat excerise

Over the past two weeks, I have happily played 4 games of Konflikt '47.  My Co-belligerent Italian (Allies) Bersaglieri reinforced platoon  have faced off against US Paratroopers, Soviet Werebears, the Desert Fox with walkers, and veteran Desert Rats*.  All of these games were fun and seemed close.  My knowledge of the rules is of course improving and the games are getting better and faster.
*No K'47 unique units in the army.

Novamarine Redemptor Dreadnought

The Redemptor Indomitus

Back over the Labor Day weekend (30 May), my brother and I were hanging out discussing the upcoming day we planned to spend at Warhammer World playing a game of Warhammer 40k between my Novamarines and his Tyranids.   I had originally planned to use the Fire Raptor as part of the army, but he encouraged me to pick up the Redemptor instead and crank it out.

It truly marks the last of the Novamarine Primaris models I intend to paint.  At this point I have most the Primaris units, save the Reavers.  In addition, I am not particularly interested in pickup games of 40k at present and neither is a large part of my community.  They have focused on Konflict '47 and possibly Team Yankee.
