Bikers rule!

Really... I played a game against my brother this morning, a 500 point carnage, and my little bike conglomerate absolutely destroyed him!

I promised pics of the new bikers, here they are:

Sorry about the lateness, I have been really busy. Yes, that is a power fist on the Sarge, taken from the Wolf Guard Terminators sprue. I love the sheer weight of spare parts you get with that set, it's actually ridiculous to think you're paying the same amount for a pack of standard Marine Terminators.

My bikers proved very resilient in the game, and they managed to take out two mobs of boyz (20 models), as well as a few Deffkoptas. I also had a Tactical Squad and Dread with me, and they provided the supporting firepower and a suitable distraction for my opponent.

I am hoping to start painting soon, I have been reading up on how to paint white miniatures, and apparently it's a fat mission. Nevertheless, I shall persevere, I just need money for paints and brushes!

A game! At last!

So, yesterday was cool because I finally got to play a decent game at the Battle Bunker for once. Against Caspar and his custom chapter of conglomerates. I won the 750 carnage, and he narrowly defeated me in the subsequent Kill-Team.

I loved the look on his face when my terminator squads (one after the other) just walked through the two squads and chapter master he planted in the centre... My bikes also proved their worth, as they managed to take down his Venerable dreadnought after a long battle of attrition. All I'm saying, flanking the bikes on one side and the rest of the army on the other is a good idea, but only because his orbital bombardment scattered. Besides, I think a chapter master is too expensive relative to his benefits for a carnage game, but he did manage to effectively squash my standard Terminators before they took over the centre.

Anyways, afterwards we set up the terrain really city-like and extremely dense. Caspar whipped out his Kill-team and I set about defending a stolen Rhino (which had magically gone up to AV14 and he now had to meltabomb it for some strange reason). Very close, the building-mounted lascannon was pumping at ruins and trying to squash the KT but they managed to get their last two men around and destroy the objective with a healthy bomb placement.

In addition to this, I bought a bike squad and set about building them as soon as I got back home. I'm still sorting out the problems with the bikes overbalancing, I really don't want to base them. Sorry I didn't get any pictures, I will try today.
