1850pts 40k Battlewagon Ork's Tournament List

Hello all Over the last few weeks I have been playing battlewagon orks and I'm going to another tournament next week in Northern Ireland, and this is what I'm thinking about taking. I think it will give me a number of potential threats on the tabletop for my opponent to deal with, and there is still some units that I have not managed to play with, plus it can certainly on paper spit out alot of ork Dakka! Dakka!

All The Action From The 1st NAF All Ireland Blood Bowl 1 Day Tounament Sponsored By Impact Minatures & Tritex-Games

Northern Ireland doesn't exactly have the biggest Blood Bowl gaming community, but I think this demonstrates that there is lots of potential to get the game up and running locally, 

and this is a fantastic first step.

Just want to say a big thank you to everyone for making it such a brilliant success on the day. It was unfortunate that 4 people couldn't actually make it, but nonetheless it was still great to see the game that I love so much being played, especially in the final game what a great moment.   

So go check out all the rounds and the final scores and hopefully everyone is looking forward to June, for the chaos cup. 

A great a goblin conversion.

 

And so it all went into the final round to decide the overall winner between the 

Rottenham Grotspur v  More Killz Orcs

So there you have it and congratulations to everyone that attended on the day, and it looks like the Rottenham Grotspurwe our the 1st all Ireland Blood Bowl champions. 

The Prizes For My 1st NAF All Ireland Blood Bowl 1 Day Tounament Sponsored By 'Impact Minatures & Tritex-Games' Arrive In The Post Today

So above are the prizes that will be awarded for the following on the day.

I have a 40k game tomorrow night, and it's Orks for the win.

And this is what I'm thinking about taking. I think it will give me a number of potential threats on the tabletop for my opponent to deal with, and there is still some units that I have not managed to play with. All of which will hopefully make it very difficult for him to win, plus it can certainly on paper spit out alot of ork Dakka! Dakka! and considering I'm against tau/eldar it's certainly not going to be easy.

All being well I will take lots of pictures for everyone to see.

How to make 40k Desert Scenery

So it's a well-known fact that I have been neglecting my first love, my hobby blog over recent weeks. So with a little bit of time on my hands, I am going to update everyone with all the going on's and happenings in my hobby life at the minute. So with the next N.D.G.H 40k tournament on the 20th of this month, I thought it was about time that I started a new desert scenery project. 

 I have actually wanted to do this for quite some time, so hopefully it will come out all right.

Using texture paint is definitely the way to go.

So once I had finished all the hill's, I wanted to do some rock's.

 

So there you have it quite simple to do and hopefully by following the pictures above you can get some much-needed inspiration, and in the next update I'm going to start painting.

My 40k ork speed freak's tournament 1850pts list for 6th

So most recently I have decided to play with the below list, with some good results so far, and with a 40k tournament coming up on the 20.01.13, I think I might go ahead and use it. 

From the start it all really hinges on whether or not you get to go 1st, as it's quite scary. With having 6 trucks at your disposal, it really doesn't hang around, and can easily get into your enemies deployment zone very quickly from turn 1.

So here it is in all its glory

+ HQ + (140pts)

    * Warboss (140pts)

        Bosspole, Cybork Body, Power Klaw, Slugga, Warbike

+ Elites + (405pts)

        * Nob

            Choppa, Slugga, Warbike

            12x Shootas

        * Nob

+ Fast Attack + (360pts)

    3x* Dakkajet (120pts)

        (Waagh! Plane)

Below I will post up some pics of the game's that I played most recently against 2 friends of mine playing Imperial guard.

 Also it manages to put out an extreme amount of firepower from the boys in the trucks, as they successfully do drive-by shootings, it is probably the bit I love the most seeing your opponents face.

Also the Warboss and his nob bikers which can easily pretty much go toe to toe with anything that they might come across, and not forgetting about my 3 Dakkajet's overhead coming in on turn 2. 

so when you put that altogether hopefully it can be very effective and catch my opponent off guard.

Well that's the idea anyway because as you well know being and 40k ork player sometimes it doesn't exactly go to plan, but as always I would love to hear some feedback.
