A photo of two boxes of the Warhammer 40,000 terrain "Alchomite Stack". It's all pipes and vertical stacks, extremely industrial-looking, borderline steampunk.

I bought another couple of boxes of terrain because I realised that they can be constructed to perfectly fit on the "blocked" hexes on the Fireteam board!

Next will be to actually finish painting them... cough.

A photo of three boxes of Warhammer 40,000 miniatures: Ork Nobz (thuggish-looking greenskinned aliens with big teeth and a motly assortment of armour and guns), Astra Militarum Tempesus Scions (armoured human soldiers) and a troope of Aeldari Harlequins (lithe humanoid aliens in multicoloured clothing all in dynamic poses, all wearing white harlequin masks).

Got all the boxes I need to create the six squads for Fireteam now. I'd SAY that's the last of the miniature purchases for a while, but we all know that's a filthy lie. 😅

A photo of four boxes of Warhammer 40,000 miniatures. Kabalite Warriors and Wyches for the Drukhari (think sadistic space elves), and Neophyte Hybrids and Acolyte Hybrids for the Genestealer Cults (the Neophytes are broadly human but with heads that are slightly too bulbous and alien-looking, the Acolytes are humanoid but with 3 arms and heads more like the alien from the movie Alien).

I think my favourite thing about Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team is that you you can dip your toes into ALL the factions without having to spend an arm and a leg making a full army (plus the subsequent time expenditure of painting them). It's pretty much, "Buy a couple of boxes of the basic troops and bam, you've got a squad."

A photo of the box of Warhammer 40,000: Fireteam. The artwork consists of two Space Marines clad in blue power armour in the midst of a number of grey metal Terminator-looking robots.

New game! Really keen to take this for a spin, it's like Warhammer Underworlds in that it's got a hex-based board you play on, but it's set in the 40K universe and the bulk of the rules are based on the new Kill Team edition that came out earlier this year. It comes with Space Marines and Necrons but has cards for an additional four factions if you've got the miniatures for them (which conveniently I do)!

A photo of five novels, the latest edition of Games Workshop's "Warhammer Underworlds" game called "Harrowdeep", a cylindrical container with a bottle of whisky in it, and a box of "aged" Earl Grey tea.

Christmas haul! I'm REALLY keen to try the whisky, it's from India and is a blend of Scottish and Indian barleys.

A photo of the box of the Warhammer Underworlds warband "The Grymwatch", which are essentially zombies. Also a bunch of little different coloured tufts of grass that are designed to stick onto a miniature's base and add visual interest, and a tub of "muddy ground" brown texture paint, also for basing.

I'm excited to see what interesting things I can do with these little basing grass tufts and the "muddy ground" texture! Got a few ideas already, and definitely no lack of miniatures on which to use them. And I decided to pick up the Grymwatch having seen someone do a WAY cooler paint job with them than the standard one.

A photo of two cans of Games Workshop undercoat spray paints, a box of Tyranid Warriors (four-armed Aliens-esque towering freaky alien things) and a box of Genestealers (also four-armed freaky alien things, but smaller and more hunched over).

I don't have a problem, I swear.

A photo of the Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team: Octarius box, with a very WWI German-esque trooper wearing a gas mask on the front.

YASSSSS. And holy crap it weighs a ton!

A photo of the box of Kainan's Reapers, a warband that's made up of skeleton warriors.

There we go, last warband I'm getting for the current season of Warhammer Underworlds! (I'm not interested in Hedkrakka's Madmob or the Idoneth Deepkin, the miniatures don't grab me).

A photo of the boxes of three warbands from Warhammer Underworlds: Khagra's Ravagers (Chaos warriors), Rippa's Snarlfangs (goblins on wolfback), and the Starblood Stalkers (Aztec-feeling lizards).

And that's birthday haul part two!
