Completed Commissions
- Here are some awesome Black Legion models we’ve been painting for a client. Consider the FLG Paint Studio for your next miniatures commission.
- And we’ve got an interview with Naftka about their upcoming game: Genesys Project! Here’s the Kickstarter.
And remember, Frontline Gaming sells gaming products at a discount, every day in their webcart!
Some, but not a ton. It’s a really well balanced book – nothing is totally over the top or criminally undercosted, but there’s a lot of really great combos. Very fun and flavorful!
I agree, it’s right up to the edge of the power curve but doesn’t step over it. I really enjoy playing mine.
That’s sad to Grey Knights no were in that list for the past 4 weeks. GW really should on the ball to make them playable again. Maybe give them all Primaris Psykers.
They certainly do need a boost of some sort.
Can’t wait for SoCal Open!! What’s more exciting than gaming by the beach!
