Too full and drunk to assemble a tank but got a bug up my ass to finally play with my original #TrenchCrusade Kickstarter figures.

I'm just so pleased for capitalism that it finally found the sawdust to put in the bread that was art. And now we all get to consume it, wondering what percentage is what.

How gloriously ’90s can a battle scene get? Bright carapaced Tyranids swarming forward while Dire Avengers, Guardians, and that heroic Exarch carve a path toward the Hive Tyrant. Even the jungle terrain screams studio classic!

It is decreed that in all popular science fiction, there must be a story that involves the lead character meeting the "Bizarro" version of themselves. I am glad of this hoary old trope, because we might never have seen Mr. Spock with a beard. youtube.com/watch?v=7aym...

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

One deodorant tank.

It seems like just what I need to bulk out my Grimdark Future force next year, but I'm going to have to mod it a fair bit (and paint it better!) to be happy fielding it now.

I'll be replacing the turret, so I need to find a plastic spoon somewhere!

Here's a similar one I painted recently ish! I love this era of minis a lot.

Properly surprised to find these in a 30+ year old box of assorted junk earlier, along with my deodorant tank...

Blister is still sealed, so they're probably the most valuable minis I own. Going to have to open it though!

Part 5

All in all this was a great first 2k game debut by my guard. I forgot to deploy my Demolisher and yet the sturdiness of my list prevailed anyway in my most significant victory to date for The 195th of Toranaga Prime. 🫡

Part 4

But what i learned from my guard here is that they may not pack a huge bunch individually but if they survive long enough across 5 turns they'll win you the game via death by 1000 cuts.

My completed Iron Sultanate crew for Trench Crusade at the Renegade Open in MN. Went 2-1 but managed to earn the most glory over the day at the very well done narrative event!

Finally after a month, Phoenix Lord Fuegan.

If I go any longer I’ll ruin what details are left. There’s a lot of sections I’m real happy with, but a few key spots suffered because of my indecisiveness.

There’s always next time.
