Well with the Pillage coming up in just over a month and the fact that there is a lot of us going, I thought that it would be good to get a bit of pre-event trash talk on the go and so that we can all see what the latest additions to our armies will be. So far going are me, my son Matt, Pete, Seb and Tom all from the Deep South. Alex, Michael, Iain, Gary and Neil from the North. There are also a few guys that we know from events down here going along with those nice chaps at BFP.
I will be running Vorlath with a what the hell are you allied with force? It will be highlander configuration and I have changed my normal allies otherwise it will look very similar to my brother’s force. Matt will be running his currently undefeated Tau filth, trust me, you will be saying how many missiles? Pete his Nurgle Daemonic horde, Seb with his Orks, Tom with undoubtedly some abusive Necron list.
So please feel free to add to the list or post your thoughts as it will be great to see all of us together again.
Here is a picture of the last time the Brothers fought at a big event and I am obviously hoping for a different outcome this time π
Please tell me you aren’t using Tau allies?
I’m treating this event as a social one so I’m am hoping to take my Chaos marines…if I get them finished. I know the army is no where near competitive but who cares? At 1800 points I’m thinking of Tzeentch. Two sorcerors in Terminator armour to accompany two units of Terminators. Troops will be two units of Thousand Sons plus any Cultists I can squeeze in with any points left over. I think that will be all the Chaos I will have time to paint so I will have to add allies to make up the points. That leaves roughly 700 points to spend on my Guard allies.
Of course, In order to maintain the theme they will need to be Tzeentch in character. So it looks like a Primaris psyker as leader – but leading what? The obvious is a blob squad and an Aegis defence line. That will still leave a few points to play with either in the allies or in the core force. Perhaps I might add some Rough Riders, or Marbo (as some kind of deranged shaman) ….decisions, decisions.
Ok I won’t then π but the new models are all converted and I am very pleased with them.
Steve
So you aren’t using pure Slaanesh?
Bwaahahahahaha…..my Brother has fallen…..victory is mine!!!
I fell a long time ago Brother. I will use all of the tools that our lady gifts us with and I fancied a change of partners, variety is the spice of life π and yes you can have a phyric victory. As long as the blood flows like wine then she will thirst no more.
Im probably taking a highlander Khorne Daemon/Chaos list with no Helldrake :-0
Ahh……at last, the return of my arch enemy π
well painting is going really badly was hoping to get list painted for Rumble but no chance. Time to ring Mr Scott and get job done for Pompey
You’ll be lucky, he’s in Turkey for another week!
Painted for Pompey not Rumble. Answer your e-mails on what I might be taking to Rumble π
Presuming Mr Scott can get this painted my current list for Pompey looks like this.

Hoping to get a game in with Mr Marsh and Mr Pearce just to kick Slaanesh arse.;-)
Well the umpteenth version of my list eventually beat Matt’s gun line Tau today and as the lists need to be entered this week i will be running with :-
Vorlath with everything
10 noise marines sonics and blastmasters
10 noise marines bolters ccw and blastmasters
Predator with las and autocannon
Aegis and quad gun
3 oblits
2 oblits
18 seekers
herald
10 daemonettes
The seekers died to missile over load but they drew the fire which allowed the rest of the army to shoot the snot out of the tau and the portal threw out loads of extra daemons which helped massively.
Any other takers to throw their lists in the ring?
Steve
Glad to see you’re keeping the faith Brother π
Apparently, lists have to be in by the end of this Thursday, so I’m playing it safe and using models that are already painted.

“10 noise marines , 7 sonic blasters, idol of excess , 2 blast masters. 290 points.”
Oh no it isn’t! It’s 291pts, lucky for you that you had a point to spare π
and shame on you for using unmarked units π
I know it is only 1 point for MoS but on an I1 model hardly worth it tbh. Yeah I know it is my waac side coming out lol
is VotLW worth it on Obliterators?
For the extra point of leadership as they are not fearless anymore so yes I think it is.
I never realised they aren’t fearless….D’oh!
