GW Reaches New Levels of Stupidity

IN the last few weeks, there have been rumblings in the interwebs about the end of Ard Boys.  Well now we have confirmation that not only is Ard Boys dead, but GW is all but pulling out of the tournament business.

The Rotting Chronicles...

This is something I haven't really tried before, but it was fun so here goes.  The creative writing bug has bitten.  I wanted to do something fun and interesting and I've been in a very fantasy mood of late...studying my new Vampire Counts and all.  I decided to start a new series.  I plan on adding stories in the future when the mood strikes me, but here is part 1 of The Rotting Chronicles:

Well FAQ this!

Well, It’s been a few weeks since the new FAQ’s came out, so in my usual delayed fashion, let’s see what’s changed…what’s good…what sucks and what GW may or may not have been smoking.  We’re going to start with the ones that will affect me since I play these armies and this is my great domain, so deal with it.

More Armies, More Fun!

I'm back for part 2 of my Fantasy army breakdown.  We have some good ones coming up...and a few not-so-good ones.  So on with the breakdown...

It's Hip to be Square

The General’s back with the square-based version of his patented (yes I will patent it so the next time a blog does this they owe me a nickel.) Game-wide army reviews.  Besides, I needed an excuse to quote Huey Lewis (Next time, Morris Day maybe).  Once upon a time I did this for 40K so it’s about time I did it for fantasy.  Like before, I will be looking at capability of the army…complexity for the new gamer…model line, availability and cost…any helpful hints and whatever else I deem relevant before giving a final grade.  I’m going in alphabetical order so we start with…

 

The dead have risen...

Once again, I’m a happy General.  Fresh on the heels of my undead robots getting a much-needed update, my undead bloodsuckers now have a new book.  We got some new toys, some tricks and some interesting changes, and I think VC will go back to being a capable army.

Today I join the twits...

So for the few that may have noticed, I have had trouble finding time to post regularly on here.  I come up with interesting little ideas, but there's not always enough there for an article.  More often I get a great idea, but forget it by the time I get home.  Luckily there's a resource for over-opinionated people like myself, so I've started a Twitter.  I plan on looking into some way to get them on here, and will likely use it to shoot out ideas that will get expanded here.  So for the few that follow me here, go find my twitter @Jersey_General.  The first 100 followers get to be my first 100 followers!
