If you’ve been following the blog, you know how much I love the XIXth Legion. We’ve covered our long-range dominance, our shift into a high-lethality phantom playstyle, and the core rules of Horus Heresy 3rd Edition. But today, I want to talk about single combat—specifically, our Legion Gambit: Decapitation Strike. On paper, the Decapitation StrikeContinue reading “Decapitation Strike: Why Raven’s Talons Are a Trap (And the Power Fist Centurion Rules Supreme)”

Crossing the Rubicon: Painting My Traitor Mechanicum Army
I’ve been playing The Horus Heresy for a long, long time now and for as long as I can remember, I’ve been a loyalist through and through. After spending years painting black armor for my Raven Guard, I’ve constantly talked about building a traitor force. Over the years, the theory-crafting went into overdrive: First, IContinue reading “Crossing the Rubicon: Painting My Traitor Mechanicum Army”
General’s Corner – Playing Raven Guard in Horus Heresy 3rd Edition
I’ve been playing the Raven Guard since I first jumped into 30k back when Betrayal at Calth dropped. Right from the start, the XIXth Legion rules grabbed me—there was just something brilliant about relying on infantry, drop pods, fliers, infiltrators, and jump packs to outmaneuver an opponent. Fast forward across 9,000-plus points of black-armored SpaceContinue reading “General’s Corner – Playing Raven Guard in Horus Heresy 3rd Edition”
This is Aragorn son of Arathorn, you owe him your allegiance.
With the Lord of the Rings universe beyond released, I knew exactly which commander deck I wanted to pick up and it needed to be the Riders of Rohan Precon. Not only does this deck contain so many iconic LOTR characters, it taps into my love of Rohan as a faction and it also allowsContinue reading “This is Aragorn son of Arathorn, you owe him your allegiance.”
Vrondiss just does things! When you know you know…
So I have done a couple of blog posts now about my decks and apparently I am just unable to stop writing them. I keep saying that my Miirym Sentinel Wyrm deck is my favourite but I think that is just a flat out lie. The first deck I ever had is a mega upgradedContinue reading “Vrondiss just does things! When you know you know…”
Lathiel is the captain now!
I previously did a little blog post on one of my favourite decks, a high powered dragon tribal commanded by Miirym Sentinel Wyrm. I really enjoyed writing that post and diving into the reasons why I included certain cards, so I felt like I needed to do another deck tech blog. The first deck thatContinue reading “Lathiel is the captain now!”
The Dragons Are Coming!
So I have a lot of decks (nothing compared to Stu) but my Miirym deck is always one that seems to draw me in. I love how the deck works and the speed in which it can get up and running. With that in mind, I wanted to do a blog post to share withContinue reading “The Dragons Are Coming!”
Jamie’s Decks
Hi everyone! So like Tom, it was Stu who introduced me to Magic during the DnD sets. When I took a look at the precons one immediately stood out: Galea, Kindler of Hope. Generally I enjoy playing decks with fairly simple gameplay strategies and a fun theme, but I’m starting trying out some more complicatedContinue reading “Jamie’s Decks”
Dicing with Death – Rout on Attritia
Last week Jamie went along to the second day of Attrition Gaming’s Heresy Boyfriends event, teaming up with Matt (@hereticalarchitect on Insta) and his awesome Ultramarine tank company. It only seemed right to pair his list with a mechanised Solar Auxila force! It was such a fun event, read on to see the two gamesContinue reading “Dicing with Death – Rout on Attritia”
A Vrondo Combo! (Part 1)
I don’t run many infinite combos in my decks, I actually do not enjoy playing or playing against two card auto win combos and I know that my two compadres also feel the same. That being said I have one deck that is all about combos, however it takes a lot of cards and puzzleContinue reading “A Vrondo Combo! (Part 1)”
