An eclectic mix of everything that fits nowhere else including miniatures, terrain, house rules, comics, lyrics and anything that doesn’t have a home elsewhere.

After having a good look at the blood angels, I am tempted to use the rules for a bezerker army. Then how do I find rules for my thousand sons characters and troops? Well I have been seeing quite a few pre-heresy armies using the blood angels rules already but as I want to include some other cult troops I am thinking of using the rules for an inquisitor and retinue as a pre-heresy option for the army to field my Thousand Sons Sorceror with his retinue or I could always just field my thousand sons troops as normal tactical squads, but that wouldn’t be as much fun.

I am more tempted by using my thousand sons terminators as grey knights, with the squads flame weapon basically being the equivalent of a psychic power on normal tzeentch aspiring champions in a squad. But with scuttlebutt being one of the chaos forces is to see some attention soon (in the next year or so) after the Inquisition forces, so I may just finish off my huge standard marine army and update my genestealer cult force to work within the latest ruleset better.

After seeing some Blood Angel Chaplain Dreads from Forgeworld I am thinking I should put together a heavy flamer dread with the redeemer flame cannon arm and leave it as a counts as weapon until future rules updates allow for it in a normal army.

With the release of the new Imperial Armour Apocalypse 2 I will have to check it out and see if I can find some interesting units to add to my collection for any big battles I play in the future.

Now that I have had a quick game or two with the BA book, I am thinking running my pre-heresy thousand sons as BA is a great option as the ability to take librarian dreads and powerful psykers along with dead hard troopers can make for some interesting games. The plan was to use the death company as a counts as chosen unit. Simply leaving out some options from the list in my pre-heresy army will allow me to run it in a way that doesn’t become too far off from the history of the Thousand Sons.
