Weekly Chronicle 2020 #43
With being on vacation last week, absolutely nothing was done last week except cutting out some foam trays on Sunday for my 'Primaris Invader ATV's'.I am not really sure what the plan is for this week modeling wise, I may try and assemble a few models if time allows later this week.
For the upcoming weekend, we are going to get in a game of Warhammer 40,000 on Saturday, just not sure yet on the size of game and what army I want to play. So many choices now.....

Weekly Chronicle 2020 #42
With getting ready to leave on vacation last week, no painting was completed (no shock, my painting has been really slow as of late).My son and I did squeeze in a 500 point game of Warhammer 40,000 on Saturday just before I left, and I got to break out my T'au and squeaked out victory using the "Open War" cards.
I also managed to assembly my three new 'Primaris Invader ATV's', as of now I am not sure when they will hit the painting table, I would like to get in a few games first and see how they do.

W40K: Inbound T'au Empire
Most of the models are already assembled (minus the Devilfish) and basecoated the standard T'au color scheme. I decided that I am going to change up that paint scheme to something a bit easier for me, but that may not be for awhile still. For now, I decided to glue on the weapons for the Commander and the XV8 Suits, he had built them with the idea of magnetizing all the weapons, but I will not be going that route, for me, this army will be used just to change it up a bit from playing Space Marine. On the Commander I went with the quad Fusion Blaster build to have some fun with him, and on the XV8's, they all have Pulse Rifles and Missile Pods, two have a Burst Cannon and one also has a Fusion Blaster.
Once I get the Devilfish assembled, I am looking at a 1000 point army with these guys. I am hoping to maybe playtest them before our weekend away in November, if not, they will then be coming with for a game there with us.

Weekly Chronicle 2020 #41 (New Codex Space Marine Test Game)
Still a pretty slow week modeling wise, but at least on Saturday afternoon we got in a game of Warhammer 40,000. With the release of the new Space Marines Codex on Saturday, we drove down to our local LGS down in South Bend, IN and picked up a copy. When we got back home we setup the table for a quick 1000 point "Open War" game.I got lucky pretty lucky and the Objective we pulled was basically to annihilate the opponent, no Objective Markers... I was OK with that as it gave me a chance to see how much my shooting got nerfed.
My Imperial SteelFists (yea, I thought of a new name based on my color scheme) did get the win by like 300 points, but the core of my army, my 'Centurions' really got hit pretty hard (and went up in points). They honestly did not do too much damage before they were taken out in Assault. The MVP unit of the game were probably a 3 man Unit of 'Eradicators'.
More testing is going to be needed, but I have a feeling it will become 'Eradicators' as the new core of my army, we shall see.
To add to that, I did pick up 3 boxes of new 'Primaris Invader ATV' while we were at the LGS. I was thinking about making them all Melta based, but I may leave the gun un-glued (I hear it is easily swappable) in case I decide to ever run the Gatling gun. The Meltas would really help with my Turn 1 Doctrines, so for now I am leaning toward that build. My goal is to get them quickly assembled so I can see how they do on the tabletop.

Weekly Chronicle 2020 #40
Once again it was another pretty slow week. Part of the reason is the release of the new upcoming Space Marines Codex that will be available for purchase this Saturday October 10th, 2020.Pre-orders were made available this past Saturday and I placed my order with Discount Games. This means I will not have it right on release day, but it did save me 15% over MSRP. My son will be picking up his Codex/Cards from our LGS Fantasy Games, so we will then have a copy right away in hand.
Once we get this Codex in our hands, games will slowly pick back up so we can test out all of our Units and see what got better and what got worse. I am a little afraid to see what happens to my Imperial Fists.
