Legands Gets Solar Power


Well not the kind that actually dose anything, but this weekend Bay Hammer in conjunction with Legends Comics in Cupertino officially opened the roster for the Macharian crusade (as provided by BoLs) The mood was casual as we all started going over the layout of the campaign and army costs where decided.

In a more hi lariating turn of events Co editor Ian was apparently torn apart by self proclaimed newbie Waagh leader Zach, though I was not able to witness this spectacular (though he claims narrow) victory I was assured that Ian's blood angels where on the receiving end of a good krimp'en so congrats to Zach.

Alright this last bit is important so read carefully if you want to enter the campaign cause slots are limited and we do have prize support.

There is no entry fee:
That's right since this will be Bay Hammer and Legends first major GW sponsored event we are giving you the first taste free.

Sessions will be held every Saturday until the end of the campaign:
possibly extended if theres a tie in the scores.

The minimum points required are 1500 and no less:
you can make any combination you want to achieve this just make sure it is all outlined in your list.

Army lists required:
please submit your lists to me through the Bay Hammer gmail at BayHammer@gmail.com
these have to be submitted to me by this weekend after that we cant take any more entries cause the campaign will be kicking off this Saturday.

Have fun:
in all seriousness we are not running a major tourny here, we are hanging out and playing through the campaign and if you happen to make top dog you get some swag, armies don't have to be painted but it is preferred.


Now enjoy some pics from Saturdays meet up:


everyone having a totaly not staged moment

The Ass kicking in progress


Happy gaming

Space Wolves: Update Battleforce

Hey there Ian reporting a little leak i came across! like above this is about the happy space wolves! They will be getting their own battleforce! yay! i know what you must be thinking right now...What do you get in the said battleforce????!!!! Well what i came across is it comes with 2 squads of scouts, a squad of space wolves pack, and a drop pod...OH before i forget! Yet another codex will be coming out after the upcoming Tyranid dex. dun dun duuuun! anyways the new one dex that will be coming out is for the Blood angels! After hearing this i was pretty happy. They havent really got their own codex and yet they did...i just hope they bring in more abilities to use with assault marines! cause that is the blood angel way. Also for the dark eldar fans i heard a possibility about them getting a new codex as well. i dont know when that will happen but ill look into it and let you all know about the news when i come across it.

-till next time, happy gaming

Update: Nids Cover and link


Since the last Article was rather rushed I thought I should appropriately link to the GW announcement and what have you. So with out further hesitation and what not here's the link, also enjoy the preview of the new Codex up top there.


The announcement mentions some new models and a creature no one has ever seen before, could it perhaps be a dominatrix like creature/brood beast one can only speculate on whats in store for the next nids book but I for one am tingling with anticipation for new models to mutilate for my up coming Chaos Tyranids minidex.

The new quarter internal SKUs should be coming out around Christmas so I will try and "acquire" a copy so we might get a glimpse of what GWs Q3 releases are.

Cheers

NEWS:Nids Codex

Not sure how to stretch this out but it just came down the line (as well as the GW website) that the new Codex Tyranids will be released this January, so brace yourselves for the next wave of nid mania induced lists. On that note now would be a good time to start speculating on what your anti nid lists are going to be. As for an exact date in January I have no idea but bank on it being a tuesday.

Our Sponsor WCC is offering something off the radar this week (or atleast thats what I am told) they are selling pre orders of the new and supposedly un announced Space wolves battleforce. While I hope that dropped a few jaws I havent been in to check on GW througly so please flog me if this is already known, if not then you heard it here first, cause thats what I am here for to do things that all the big names miss (gotta have a niche)

So start drafting up your bug crushing massive last stand anti nid lists now gentlemen, the hive fleet approches.

Cheers
