Return to Giddeon Prime - End of Summer

The forces of Imperium of Man - Black Templar and Imperial Guard, had showed up for the meeting that was to address the concern of the Tyranids.

Return to Giddeon Prime - End of Summer Scenario

 
There have been sightings of Tyranids all over Gideon Prime. The armies that are stationed there know that if there is one bug, there are bound to be more... Wishing to parley the Commanders decided to meet at "stone table" to decided the fate of Giddeon Prime. A desolate piece of land stone table sits in a basin surrounded hills, the land abandoned once the mines ran dry. As the commanders debated the various sub-commanders watched from their camps wary and waiting for some sign of treachery.

Giddeon Prime - End of Summer

+++
Spores continue to rain down on the planet, spreading the Tyranids infestation of Giddeon Prime. The hive tyrant senses the prey of this planet are divided and weak, a lair has been established, the next phase of advancement begins.


Chaplin Adolfus rises from a prayer of thanks to the EMPEROR and blesses those breathern around him. The Necrons thought they could push north but with righteous fury the Black Templars halted their advancement and pushed them back and captured some of their territory. While to the west more Xeno scum perished under the blades of the blessed.


Imperial guard commander ( Don't know which one), looks over his maps one more time in his siege line bunker. Doubts run through his mind about the assault coming of the capital. With so few men and resources left he is cautious, wanting to make sure victory is possible.


Maphiston the Reborn rises to his feet. The whispers of the gods have finally given him an insight on the movements of the enemy. With a wet growl commands are issued and the armies of the dark gods advance once again from the cold north.

Turn 9 - Movement
As the summer drew to a close it seemed everyone was making grab for territory.  The map heaved a sigh as armies marched in all directions.  BT tunred their eyes to Necrons, and the Cron continued the 'grudge' match against the DE.  Eldar were getting pushed back by the encroaching Nids, and left the city to its fate.  Tau used the shift to attempt to stamp out the last Daemon forces and Chaos marched on them.
---------------------------------
Turn 9 - Final
No one saw this, but BT pushed to the lead tied with Chaos for the end of summer.  The ELdar hold had finally been broken by the NIds. Tau, oddly, held the same amount of territories as no one seemed to be attack them. The dice proved to be the victor as another series of failed capture rolls happened.

Laughing at the outcomes, everyone agreed that the campaign was going to get fierce int he last season of its 1st campaign year.  What will Fall bring????

Wednesday Ramdomness and Painting Charts

 Stumbling through my blog list, I came across the post that seemed to come from my mind.  The post was on finding a balance between playing and playing the image below sums up the post.

As I read through the comments I can across a mention of a painting chart.  This is not something new, BUT i finally took the time to create one myself.  I followed a link to Admiral Drax's blog and took it from there.


The hour spent creating my initial template was worth it. I can now see how far I have come and how much work I need to complete for my Eldar army. I look forward to creating the Space Marine, C SM and Vampire Counts charts.

Eldar Painting Chart
As you can see, I have made allot of headway in very little time, but still have a way to go. I look forward to my Eldar getting completed.

I wish to thank Admiral Drax for inspiring me to get this done.



Campaign Update - Summer T7 and 8

I'm in your base, eating your face....
 Apologies for the long delay on the campaign update and the blog in general.  Lives threw me a fast ball, and I have been a solo parent for the past month.  My daughter has TOO much energy and has been wearing me out.
