Tanks at Golden Demon 2014

The humble tank has had a hard life in 40k in recent years. There was the can opening edition of 40k known as 5th edition, then the event of hull points which both extended and shortened the life of tanks at the same time. Finally there was 7th edition which gave tanks a new lease of life, due to the reduction in armour piercing value of AP2 weapons. However at the same time there has been the introduction of Lords of War, Imperial Knights and Wraith Knights to the standard game table, which has quite frankly squated the place of the tank as the armoured bayomonth on the block. Still it’s nice to see people are still painting them for Golden Demon.

First up we have the lightest tank at Golden Demon, well not really a tank but there are not enough Jeeps to warrant a separate post. I believe this is a Forge World Tauros Rapid Assault Vehicle painted in jungle camouflage.IMG_2671.PNG

Next up is a Blood Angle Predator Infurnus.

The was one of my favourite tanks. If you have a problem called the Forge World Spartan, painted in Crimson Fist Chapter Colours.

The Dark Angels chase the Fallen in this striking air brushed Rhino. This looks like the work of El from Half God Studios. We will be doing a feature on his work next year.

Today is Christmas Eve and like all respectable men I need to go and buy a lot of Christmas presents, so this will be the last pre Christmas 2014 post on Chapter Masters. Happy Christmas from Ben, Gareth and myself. I hope your Christmas is full of fun and joy and a little 40k.

Here we have an Imperial fist Sergeant from the young Bloods Category in Golden Deamon from Games day 2013.

Response from Ben
The standard of the Golden Demon Young Blood entries was just astounding at Games Day last year. I’d be very happy entering this model into the 40k single miniature category. It wouldn’t win but it might make it further than my rune priest did.
Ben.
What do you think about this?.

Forge World: Imperial Fist Boarding Action Dispaly Board

UK Games Day 2013 Forge World: The Battle of Phall Imperial Fist Boarding Action Display Board

I presume this is the boarding action during the battle when the Iron Warriors ambushed 7 companies of Imperial fists after they had been stranded for months in a warp storm at the start of the Horus Heresy. I didn’t get the name of this board.

Some of my photo’s are a little buried, apologies for that. I thought it was better to include them anyway.

Imperial Fist

Today’s Picture Imperial Fist

Rogal Dorn’s Legion VII Imperial fist on display at Warhammer world. The old metal venerable dreadnought is somehow more imposing than the newer plastic version. Lead by Captain Lysander the men look ready to met out the Emporia’s judgement on any who oppose him.
