- Gamecraft shows off a new watch tower that looks pretty cool.
- Forge World reveals some teaser images that look pretty cool. Space Marine aircraft and a Daemon of some sort is what it appears to be. Would guess that these are Daemon Prince Samus from 30k and the rumored new Xiphon Interceptor.
- Statuesque Miniatures releases 28mm female heads, now with berets! Cool for converting female models.

- Evil Craft minis reveal their new Chaos Sorcerer model, and it looks pretty fantastic.
- Siren Miniatures show off a painted version of their new Assassin Marquis model.
- Kabuki reveal their new Legio Praetoriana models….definitely not to be confused with Adeptus Custodes, haha.

Rant Session
Tactics Corner
- Got our copy of the updated Seige of Vraks and it is really cool! The updated lists like the Death Korps Seige Regiment and Chaos Renegades are a lot of fun. The new special characters are quite good, too.
- Seige drill is awesome, now, and Kreig are really solid AM choices, but lack AA.
- Necrosius is an excellent Chaos HQ, and Zhufor and Arkos aren’t bad, either.

List Review
Blood Angels Angels Fury Spear Fury Fury.
Thanks for the review of my list, I was thinking of going hammernators with a Mephiston over the Astorath and the death company, But my main concern was mobility with the list.
Also which is the best way to kit out Tac squads I was thinking Grav gun and Multi-melta because it gives tac squads utility against monstrous creatures and armor?
Thank you again for your feedback.
Happy to help! I prefer Melta/H.Flamer/M.Bombs for Tac Squads, personally.
The Xiphon Interceptor
165 pts
Av 11/11/11 Hp3
2 twin linked lascannons
A 2 shot missile launcher that has multiple missile types and one option that makes other flyers cry
Plus what ever ancillary rules it may have supersonic etc
Will siege of vraks be playable for your events,
Because I love love the hades and I looooooove the roughriders things.
I may be able to actually do my knight themed ig now.
Yeah, totally playable. We allow all 7th ed updated FW lists, they’re good fun!
I will warn you, I will play the willIam tell overture whenever I declare a charge.
What is the Warlord trait for that Alpha legion guy?
I expect some of the more obvious things in the Eldar book fixed but they will get absolutely disgusting formations.
Just ordered that evil craft sorcerer and some bits for my 30k night lords. I’m planning to convert him into the NL exiled chief librarian.
