The Black Sun Gors

As Season 1 draws to a close, I've turned my attention to possible line ups for Season 2. Despite having some plastic figures converted to represent a Chaos Chosen side, I decided to purchase the real deal. I also picked up an Ogre for the big guy option.

The Blockers

Grog the Ogre

The Beastie Boys

Black Sun Gors

I went for a cream and grey/blue colour scheme as I already had the Renegades in black and silver. The Ogre is one of the plastic figures from the Ogre team that I picked up on Ebay. I've also got a 3rd edition Beastman with extra arms to add once I get him painted up. Will try and purchase the other mutant with tentacles for when the team hopefully pick up some mutations. I also had an idea for a Lord Borak . I'll use one of the Khorne Blockers as a basis, removing some of the more pronounced Khorne iconography.

Season Update

 3 more games were completed this week

Clar Karond Corsairs vs LV Raiders 0-0

This was the first game of the season without a Touchdown. The Raiders did well to shut out the Corsairs in the first half before controlling the ball for much of the second. However the Corsair defence also were implacable as they prevent the Riaders making a late score

Tir na nOg Ravens bt Gryphon Bloodsox 2-1

Ghis was a hard fought encounter for 2 teams that have struggled with consistency all season. The Ravens gamely hung on to secure their second win of the season

Clar Karond Corsairs bt Midshire Giants 2-0

The Corsairs clinched the league with an emphatic win over the giants. They spent most of the game keeping out of the clutches of the treemen before pouncing and taking their opportunities to score.

Score Updates

The Miami Rotters are the first team to complete all of their fixtures,beating the Tir na nOg Ravens 3-0, however only drawing 1-1 with the Midshire Giants. Could it be a costly result? as they reach the top of the table but only by a single point.

The LV Raiders moved themselves into contention with a 1-0 win over the Orkland Raidurz. They are next up against the Corsairs, a win could see them move into title contention.

League table finally updated

A Treeman

With the league suspended over the festive period, it was an opportunity to add another big guy to the collection. This time a Treeman, which I can use with my existing Wood Elf team or even make a possible start on a Halfling team

It is a 3d printed model that was kindly donated by one of the club members. Quite a simple paint job to get him ready for the playing field.

Hopefully next week the league will resume, there are a couple of games planned.

Minotaur and a friendly game

With having both a Chaos Chosen and Renegade team it seemed a little amiss not to have a Minotaur. So I picked up a 3d printed model for a very reasonable sum. I painted him up to match the Renegade team colours, but with a little red  added he should be fine for the Chosen team as well.

I'm quite happy with how he has turned out. He has even been nicknamed 'Rocky'.

Also on Thursday I had a friendly game with Sean, who was wanting to try out his new Norse side, so I duly took him on with the 'Da Bad Moon Blitz' Orc team. After taking an early 2-0 I had to settle for 2-1. There were significant casualties on both sides. The Yeti with claws is very effective getting through normally tough Orc armour, A few pictures from the game.

 

Team Photos

So I finally got around to taking team photos to the latest aditions to my roster. First up is the Naugrim Ironfists. 

This team has the full complement of 16 players which also includes Grim Ironjaw. The second team is the Scuttleton Rats. I do have 2 3d printed Gutter Runners to add to the team.

Both teams are a good mix of 2nd and 3rd edition figures which are a good match. It's now got me thinking of completeing a Goblin team to run and underworld league in the future.

More Dwarves and Skaven

First up the last of my Dwarves which will complete the team. Firstly is 2 Troll Slayers, adding a bit of frenzy to the team. These are both 3rd edition models.

Next is the 2 blitzers for the team. These are both 3rd edition models. 1 is actually a lineman, but fits this team better as a blitzer.

The last 2 figures for the team will be a pair of 2nd edition blitzers that I'll use as linemen.

I'll need to get the figures together for a team photo. I also added another 3 Skaven too my 2nd team. A blitzer, Gutter Runner and lineman.

Just 2 more Gutter Runners to complete this team
