Airbrushing done...finally
So after months of scheduling conflicts I finally got over to my buddy's house to use his airbrush. It took about 2 hrs and a full bottle of Vallejo Air to complete EVERY one of my Chimera chassis tanks. From this point I will apply a gloss coat and start weathering. I am very pleased with the speed and efficiency of the airbrush and look forward to attempting some more advanced techniques.

The Badab War grows!
Firstly, the group.
Secessionists:
Austin - Mantis Warriors
Christian - Red Corsairs Pirates (Chaos Warband)
Dave - Lamenters (BA)
Loyalists:
Ken - Charcharodons
Mark - Red Scorpions
Myself - Howling Griffons
Phase I: Shadows of War
Ken Vs. Dave - Boarding Action; Loyalist Victory +3CP
Christian Vs. Ken - Boarding Action; Forces of Ruin Victory +0CP
Dave Vs. Christian - Boarding Action; Secessionist Victory +1CP
Me Vs. Austin - Loyalist Victory +1CP
Dave Vs. Mark - Secessionist Victory +1CP
Bellerophon's Fall 4-way game - Secessionist Victory +4CP
Phase I Final Scores:
Secessionists 6CP
Loyalists 4CP
The Secessionists have won Phase I and get the "Corsair Traffic" special rule. From this point on Secessionist players get to re-roll the scatter distance of deep strikers in Phases 2, 3, and 4. Also, we added Mark to the group so Christian's Chaos army went from a Forces of Ruin to a Secessionist army. We decided for fluff purposes, which is the point of campaign, that Christian's army represents the Red Corsair's prior to their takeover by Lugft Huron.
Phase II: Tide of Destruction
Dave Vs. Ken - Secessionist Victory +2CP
Dave Vs. Mark - Secessionist Victory +2CP
So that is the current state of affairs. I will continue posting the results of our war. Enjoy!

Some Sunday gaming!
A little Howling Griffons Vs. Mantis Warriors action for our Badab War campaign. 2k, IA allowed, 5 objectives, DoW deployment. Mantis Warriors chose to go first.
Regio (counts as Marneus) and a horde of assault termies handling the main push of his army. PS: the Caestus Assault Ram is brutal!
The almost completed Chapter Master Regio Venator, (counts as Marneus version) more on him in a bit.
A win for the Howling Griffons (10pts for Gryffindor!) Through sheer weight of terminators and the beauty of the Caestus Ram I managed to pull off a win. The game ended with me holding 2 objectives to 0.
