The 4th Claw

The 4th Claw finished.
Hobby update... I recently finished my 3rd,10 man troop squad. The 4th Claw features 2 Plasma guns and the Champion has 2 Lightning Claws. Next in my cue is their Rhino, which will be my first with Night Lord doors and front from Forgeworld. It's primed and ready to paint. It looks very cool with the legion markings.

Why the 4th Claw? Well the 1st Claw are the Chosen. 2nd Claw is First Sergeant Klytus squad. 3rd Claw is run by Barin "The Undying".

The 4th Claw will have to get some game time before any possible name for the Champion can be earned. But I think it's a very cool model that I'm very happy with. His Lightning Claws are from the Raptor plastic kit, and his legs are actually from a Space Marine Devastator squad. I really like the pose.

No games played since Gen con. But I've ordered the bits for 30 Terror Squad members and a Lightning Strike Fighter. So the 30K end of the army is taking form. The Isstvan Campaign Legions book I bought at Gen con came in the mail. So I've been poring over that, as well as trying to finish Vengeful Spirit by Graham McNeil.

Well, that's my immersion into the world of Warhammer 30/40K for now. Hopefully I can get some games in soon. Now that I have the books needed to play 30K, I'm going to work on a 2000pt. list that I'll post once I fine tune it. It will give you an idea of where my 30K Night Lords are headed. List building is another fun aspect of this multifaceted hobby that we love!

P.S. what do you think of the new layout? While I'll always be an Eldar player, this is my hobby blog and the VIII are on my mind these days.

Ave Dominus Nox.

  1. Big fan of waiting to name the group until they get some wins under their belts :). Make them earn their titles!
