Hello everyone!
After my exam period, a trip to Italy (combining a wedding (no, not mine!) and some vacation) and a visit in my hometown are over, I think I should take some time and keep you up to date.
I went to the GW store and was surprised that the GW employee handed my the following prize:
I reached the third place with some other guy - we both had the same score. I got a 10€ voucher and some beautiful Age of Sigmar artworks:
(Sorry for the perspective - but I had the artworks laying on a chair)
My favorite is the blue one on the lower right side.
So what the heck is this Armies on Parade thing? It is another contest at the Games Workshop Store. One has the possibility to present its army - it has to fit into an area of a specific size. One can also create a display board for the miniatures - of course no larger then the specific size. At my local store I was told that I need to have at least one leader and two minimum sized standard troops to enter.
(This link contains an explanation, too - it takes you away from steemit)
So now that you all know what Armies on Parade is I want to tell you my thoughts so far. No surprise here - I am going to display my tyranids. I plan on making a display board too. So far I have some draft images on paper fitting my display case. The board will be jungle themed - my first attempt had two small ruins, a second thought was modeling a brood pool instead and my current idea is to take one small ruin and put it on a small hill. Maybe I include a little lake.
Anyway I'll keep you informed.
Quite some time ago a friend of mine made a decorative pyramid out of resin (in the style of an orgonite). I wanted to have my own pyramid, too and started watching a lot of videos on that resin casting topic very soon. But no spoilers now - if I ever manage to finish this project I'll let you know :)
To keep it short: I was persuaded to try Killteam - and participate at the Killteam campaign at my local store... Start date is the 15th of September. No surprise that I chose my tyranids from hive fleet Rotah to form a team...
So far I had only a couple of games with basic rules. I won against some catachan guys twice - they were really tasty nom nom - but lost the two games against grey knights. They were so damn strong... I really have to continue practicing a lot to get to know all the rules and so on as I do not have experience in actually playing any Warhammer tabletop game.
Have a great time! Tami
