I’m a 30 something Sci-Fi and Horror geek. I love to role-play, build wargaming models and paint miniatures. My sister got me into RPGing with the purchase of the D&D Red boxset. Unfortunately to this day I have never played a game of D&D or AD&D. But I have played a ton of others, just see the huge list below! I entered into wargaming by lucky chance. I bought my first GW miniature when I was 12, but didn’t see my first wargame till the next year in high school. My friend Dave (The Blue Gnoll) and Cain played the original 40K "Battle at the farm" scenario after school. From that point on I was hooked. So you all have the Blue Gnoll to blame!!!

Titan Test Drive!!!

Damaged but not defeated!!!

With Overkill 99.99% done construction-wise my honey cut me loose at 11:00pm to go play. I went down to the local GW store for their anniversary. Some guys were just setting up for a Apocalypse battle and I asked if I could join in. They let me in with Overkill a Warlord Titan, 2 Vindicators, 2 Defilers, a Land Raider, a squad of Obliterators and a Havoc squad. Overkill was armed with 2 Vulcan Megabolters and 2 Gatling Blasters. In four hours I scored nearly 100 Marine kills, 1 Predator kill and an IG Valkyrie. Meanwhile the three Baneblades whittled away at my Void Shields. But it was a daring raid by the Emperor's Scythes to Overkill's rear with a Lander Raider and 2 multi-melta armed attack bikes that did the 1 structural damage. Also in the course of the battle the drive was damaged dropping its speed to 6". So not bad for a Warlord armed basically for anti-personnel.

So after 4 hours of the most hellish battle of Apocalypse I've ever been in. I'm going to bed right after I cut my sore feet off with a hack saw. Goodnite folks!!!


Once I catch up with Mikey later in the week I will post some pictures of the battle. So stay tuned.
