The following report prepared at the request of Ghe Ven Ha, Supreme Grand Treasurer of the Xyphoneian Ministry for Logistic Affairs,Continue reading “Warzone Xyphos: Minor Astartes presence”

Dicing with Death: The Trap on Moross
Moross became a frontline system following the Traitors’ conquering of the Perditian and Zeugan systems in Xyphos. The planet was deemed a possible vector for a traitor assault and so by early 009.M31 it had a reasonable garrison including Ultramarines of the 77th Company. Additionally, 19th Corps from 216th Expeditionary Fleet was planetside, acting asContinue reading “Dicing with Death: The Trap on Moross”
Dok’s Shop – Chapter Master Arrias Cordos
Given the Ultramarines legion went on to found so many chapters I wanted my 30k force to represent one such chapter. I could then tease that chapter’s history into its part of the wider legion (like FW did with the Aurora and Nemesis chapters) to show the kernals of the chapter that would become. InContinue reading “Dok’s Shop – Chapter Master Arrias Cordos”
Dicing with Death – War on Eryndor V
Esteemed Lord-Marshall, you asked me to prepare a dossier on the ongoing war on Eryndor V in the Ansham System. I have provided several sources below, but the overall tactical summary is that the strategic position has become more complicated, with forces from several legions now engaged on the planet. Given the importance of theContinue reading “Dicing with Death – War on Eryndor V”
Dok’s Shop – Ultramarines Nemesis Destroyers
“Our recon forces have confirmed the Fleet’s intelligence report. Lorgar is here.” The room stilled at this dire news and all bar one of the assembled Ultramarine officers were silent. Sergeant Taius Macrian’s pacing continued unaffected, his fists clenching so hard his suit’s servos were straining under the effort. “Well what is there to discuss?Continue reading “Dok’s Shop – Ultramarines Nemesis Destroyers”
Dok’s Shop – Lucifer Blacks
Hi everyone, I’ve been picking up GW’s monthly minis for a while now, converting them into different Militia units, such as the 710th Ironbacks. When the scout model was announced I thought it would make a good ‘elite’ unit with carapace armour. Concept I then thought it would be fun to model up a LuciferContinue reading “Dok’s Shop – Lucifer Blacks”
Dok’s Shop – Traitor Solar Auxilia
Hi everyone! As part of WIPWednesday, I thought I would do an article on my traitor Solar Auxilia commander squad. Concept I love my Solar Auxilia and have put some effort into creating fluff for the force as loyalists (which you can find here and here). The problem is most of my friends also playContinue reading “Dok’s Shop – Traitor Solar Auxilia”
Primus-Strategos Blazaar Dymov
Primus-Strategos Blazaar Dymov commands the 216th Expeditionary Fleet‘s First Army. This makes him perhaps the fourth most important person in the fleet, after Horatio Octavian II, his second in command Fleet Marshall Djev, and the commander of 1st Army Group General Sheev Verox. Background Born on Phylandriankier, Dymov was one of 63 children hostages handedContinue reading “Primus-Strategos Blazaar Dymov”
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”
Re-Muster the Militia – Part 3
A mixed week progress wise! Guess which one of us has now got the fear before the event (yes it’s the one who has nine tanks to paint still)!! This week we’ve all been discussing our envoy models and how we’re going to convert them up too. Tom So now that I have built allContinue reading “Re-Muster the Militia – Part 3”
