Just a heads-up, will be very sporadic from Sat-Weds, as I'll be traveling.

It could be a "Getting Started"-style kit for the Pro/Tone line, with a few of the line's paints and a single mini.

It'd be easy enough to create a Club here dedicated to making an 11th edition compatible Crusade system. I'd wait until after 11th launches just to see if they give us any actual info one way or the other, but otherwise making a public Club to work on/discuss rules would be good.

In the USA, so probably slightly different here, but in general I advise people who want to sell stuff to look first to local groups (via FB, Discord, etc...) and then try out eBay. This can save on shipping hassles, as a lot of times people are willing to travel to get a decent deal. There are also some, in the US at least, bigger game stores that buy used models as part of their normal business. You won't be getting the same price as you probably could get with a direct buyer, but it can be a lot easier and simpler to go through than trying to piece everything out yourself.

My local crusade group has been hearing rumors of a Crusade-only book, but nothing definite. If nothing else, I know we want to continue Crusade-style games and I'm at least committed to working up house-rules to cover the gap if nothing actually shows up.

Looks like its up for me, thanks!

Nope, all I have is this, going from Newest Topic to Latest Club Activity-

Hmm. Will have lots of CSM available, as well as some regular SM and always have a little bit of random odds 'n ends. Don't know what to vow yet...

Either my brain is fried or something is up with my settings but the Donation sidebar isn't showing for me...

The final building portion of my CSM journey has been completed! Got the bits to make the Ninth Verse Chosen for the Ebon Word, and the Pale Wake Legionaries and Orren Malith the Dark Apostle for the Shrikeborn. Once my Votann are finished (down to a Land Fortress, 2 Sagitaurs, and a Grimnyr), I should be starting on these bad boys. The Ninth Verse Chosen of the Ebon Word, decided to make them very much Iconoclasts and destroyers of the Imperial Lie, so all armed with smashing maces and fists. Even the "twin accursed weapon" member is modeled with a thunder hammer to show the dedication they put into smacking down Imperial shrines and statues. As far as gameplay goes, the "regular" guys all have accursed weapons, with two carrying combi-weapons and one just a regular bolter, which is distinguished by the different shields they are carrying (not great view of the shields, but the bolter one has a mkII round shield vs the others carrying mkVI shields). Pretty standard stuff otherwise, though the Champion has the Traitor Overseer head because it felt right. Pale Wake Guess I'm making a lot of semi-Breachers... These Legionaires are armed in a fairly standard way- Champion and one dude have heavy melee weapons (heavy chainsword/powerfist) and plasma pistols, one member carries a lascannon, and the other two are chainsword/bolt pistol grunts. All but the heavy chainsword guy are sporting AoS Blood Knight shields, as I had some extra and I think they look very Night Lords-coded. Helms are the Sons of Horus Mk VI heads, as they look very different from other Mk VI stuff but still feel like a skull-type thing which fits for the Pale Wake. Orren Malith Malith turned out pretty good I think. The Sons of Horus Dark Emissary Consul is a good base and his spear I think is suitably nasty looking. Only two issues popped up- I originally wanted his left hand to still have the Emissary's chained skull, but that was way too fragile and broke when I was trying to put it together. The Traitor Overseer power-lash seemed an appropriate replacement, without distracting from the main weapon. The second issue was his head, as I had ordered a set of heads from Etsy that looked good but turned out to be too small (true 28mm size rather than the sort-of 32mm scale that GW's SM are), so I just took the most skull-like of the Sons of Horus Mk VI helms and stuck it on, minus the topknot. Overall I'm happy with him, so can't complain too much. Next up for this blog will be actually painting some of my stuff, hopefully starting next month!

I use Copilot- I've found that it does the best job for what I need it to. I mainly use it for my CSM blog here, to give my lore blurbs a little bit of visual interest in the time before I start painting my models.

The soldier limped his way into the medicae center. Bustling orderlies and doctors moved with purpose to the various beds and rooms, having hurried discussions as they went. A nurse-attendant took a quick look at his leg and sent him to an outlying room saying, "Not too bad, let one of the combat medics look at you." The man went as directed, following the tangled mass of painted designator lines on the floor until he found his ward and room. Inside sat two men in crisp brown-grey dusters, with a castle-like patch on their shoulders. Both looked him up and down silently, then the younger one told him to lay down on the bed. As the wounded man did so, he watched as the younger of the pair gave short commands to the other, quickly locating the las wound on his leg and disinfecting it. The hard enunciation and lilt of the man's voice was unmistakable, a clear upper-class Miradoran accent. Not the effected languor of the so-called nobles, but the commanding tones of the merchant-princes and rancher-lords that owned much of the planet's wealth. What was one of them doing dressed in the clothes of a Pioneer? "Next time, move your foot out of the line of fire." The comment tore the man away from his introspection and he shot the medic a sour look. "I didn't plan on being shot "Doc". Can't say much about your beside manner." A razor-thin smile appeared on the youthful face. "You want sympathy, look to Cutter here. I'm just here to make sure you are well enough to die for the Emperor." The bandages were secured and dusted with a sulpha powder before the two men walked away. --- Name: Althus Culvain Nickname: Doc Specialty: Squad medic Assignment: 8th Miradoran Pioneers - C Company - 5th Platoon - 2nd Squad History: Pre-enlistment - Raised in a mid-high merchant-prince family, part of the Alwat Collective.
