A photo of the board at the start of a game of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. The terrain is Ork-style and the structures look like like a junkyard and are very ramshackle. Closest to the camera are my Coirsair Voidscarred, basically lithe space elves in fuchsia armour and turquoise cloaks. I was facing Space Marines but you can't see them in the photo because they're all in cover and not visible from this point.

Had another game of Kill Team at @[email protected]'s place tonight. In news that will surprise nobody, we only got through two rounds, and I lost. The first round started well, but it all fell apart in the second. I'm pretty sure the only time I've won with the Voidscarred is when I've played a horrendously imbalanced game against one of the not-very-good Compendium teams. 😕

A photo of a fully set up game board of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. The terrain is all very ramshackle and looks like it's straight from a junkyard.

We had a four-player game of Kill Team today! Turns out I'm pretty shit at playing my team (Imperial Guard) and I barely did anything and got mostly shot off the board. I came third and that was because the fourth guy was having fun just blowing shit up and wasn't actually playing objectives, heh. Though in retrospect, I don't think the terrain was really set up very well, there was a lack of heavy cover around the deployment zones which meant I had to be bunched up and in conceal to avoid being murdered on the first turn.

A photo of a game of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. The board looks like the metal of an inside of a ancient steampunk starship, and the terrain is a bunch of walls all connected together in the same steampunk style. On one side are ten heavily-armoured human warriors in light blue/grey armour, and on the other are VERY LARGE Space Marines in orange armour.

First game of Kill Team: Into The Dark! Heavy Intercessors vs. Astra Militarum Scions. Really enjoying this format, it was a hell of a close game, sadly I lost 6-7, mostly due to a couple of mistakes on my part.

A photo of the board of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team's new box called "Into the Dark". There's a bunch of walls that are incredibly detailed and look almost steampunk, with hulking Space Marines on the right and regular armoured human troops on the left.

In the office for Kill Team tonight! I didn't actually play this game, merely spectated, but it was using the new Into The Dark terrain and missions that were released recently, and it's pretty excellent.

A photo of a game of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. It's on a gaming board with a bunch of junkyard-looking terrain, and on my side of the board are six green Death Guard Space Marines looking all gross and mutated.

In news that will shock nobody, the only reason I was in the office today was for after-work Kill Team. 😛 Sadly didn't win this time, it was obvious how it was going to turn out by the end of the third round so we called it.

A photo of a Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team board with terrain on it that's all ramshackle and looks like it's part of a junk yard, which has been undercoated in black but has shamefully had nothing else done to it.

We FINALLY got a game of the new Kill Team in! We played without tac-ops or equipment just to streamline things a bit, and only got two out of the four turns done, but it was really good, can't wait to play more.

A photo of a big boxy stompy green Chaos Dreadnaught being overrun by eight purple, four-armed Alien-esque Genestealers.

My Dreadnaught got, uh, slightly swarmed. (We lost due to not paying enough attention to objectives, though we also didn't actually finish all the turns before my teammate had to get back home so technically it could have gone either way.)

A photo of a table with lots of home-made terrain on it, all either rocky or scrap-looking metal constructs. On this side are Chaos Space Marines, painted in green, next to regular Space Marines which are shamefully unpainted (and also held together with Blu-tac). On the other are Tyranids and Necrons.

Look out, we're playing Warhammer 40,000! Pretty sure this is the first time in seven years...

A photo of four sets of ten female heads for Warhammer 40,000-sized miniatures. One set has mohawks and cybernetic implants, one has a selection of "grizzled veteran" headgear like a beret, a beanie, sunglasses, one has a cigar, etc. The third set all have berets on, and the last have no headgear at all.

Woohoo, the replacement female heads for my miniatures arrived today. They're metal but surprisingly good quality, can't wait to get them all painted up. (I think I'm going to wait for my airbrush stuff to arrive before I get stuck in.)

A photo of a Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine, a big heavily-armoured warrior holding a big gun, that's been undercoated in black and has a zenithal highlight of white done from the angles on the top so it looks like the light is shining on him from above. The gradient is smoooooth.

We were over at a friend's place today and he has an airbrush. I had a play around with it, and that's it, I'm getting one. Look at the damned smoothness of this zenithal highlighting!
