Adepticon 2010

Well, Adepticon is fast approaching, and I have not had time to upload any new pics for quite some time. I am struggling to finish my armies on time, but hopefully things will work out. I apologize for the lack of updates and pics. I plan on documenting my weekend at Adepticon, and will update the blog for all who are interested about my endeavors in the Gladiator, Team Tournament, and 40K Championships. I will be bringing a camera to Adepticon to get some pictures of the event, as well as in game snapshots to go along with my chronicle of the tournaments. Hopefully I will come back with some loot! See you all at Adepticon! I look forward to seeing old friends and meeting plenty of new ones. Hit me up with a comment if anyone wants to grab a drink at some point during the weekend!

New Dice

As any self respecting player knows, some dice are just bad. It is not superstition, it is not myth, it is fact. Last year, at Adepticon, I officially retired my dice from competitive play. Now, I am the first to admit when I played a poor game or made a critical mistake, and am not one to blame dice rolls on the outcome of a game... usually. Sometimes, however, a bad batch of dice is just, well, bad! Such were these, that I faithfully used for the better part of 3 years, hoping they would get better. Well, like I said, at Adepticon 2009, I had finally had enough of my plain blue dice, and I have not used them in competitive play since (they are rather good practice dice, because if I can win a game with then I know I have done a particularly good job). Well, I went back to some very old dice (black and red from my blood angel days) for the summers 'Ard Boyz tournament, and they performed fairly average, as one would statistically expect. I was fairly pleased with them (they got me to the Semi-Finals), but they do not fit in at all with the Blue and Bone color of my army. So, without further ado, I am pleased to present my new dice (oh yeah, they are fully customized, and match my vehicles quite well!), which I just ordered today, and which will be broken out for the first time at Adepticon 2010. Hopefully they will perform admirably.

Road to Adepticon, Part Four

So here is my first (semi)completed Ork Boy. I am still figuring out the eyes, shoes, and base, but for the most part he is done and this is what my Speed Freek army will look like. Enjoy!

Adepticon Team Tournament 2010

I do not have any pictures at the moment, but my team has been set for the 40K Team Tournament at Adepticon 2010. I will be a member of Mork Protects, and all four of us will be fielding Speed Freek Orks. I am excited to get into a new army and get it painted up! Adepticon is only 1000 points per team member, but I will probably build this army up to 2000 or 2500 just for fun (and after Adepticon, of course!) I recently finished up the army list and am now working on a paint scheme. I'll try and post a picture of a completed Ork Boy later tonight...

Adepticon Update

It has been a while since I have updated this. I know no one pays any attention to this blog (yet), but I am trying to hold myself accountable to get everything done in time for Adpeticon 2010. I will have some new pics to upload tomorrow.
