After an almost 2 month layoff, I'm writing again. Basically what happened is the Hobby Triathlon was very disheartening for a number of reasons and I got stuck trying to write about it. I had been working on a full report from it but its taking so much longer than its worth, I'm just going to scrap it and move on.
A lot of stuff has happened in the past couple months. The highlights include: painting my first eldar (yuck!), playing with 40k Daemons for the first time (yay!), my brother visiting for a very Tyranid Christmas and more recently a return to working on my Chaos Marines forces.
I've added a number of different units to my Chaos Marines in hopes of countering some of the mech-heavy lists that operate at my shop. Adam is running a tournament called Squirrelfest 2011 next Sunday for 16 veteran hobbyists in the area which I'm going to play in. The list I'm going to run is a variant 1750 version of my Hobby Triathlon list. It looks like this:
1,750pt Chaos Undivided

It lacks a hammer unit and doesn't dominate any particular phase of the game but I'm hoping that versatility will carry the day. Hopefully I can get a practice game or two in. Either way, I'll try super duper hard to remember to bring a fully charged camera to the tournament.
