Tau Army List Ver 1

Had been awhile since I updated this blog. Really busy with work... but still manage to get some gaming time.

Though the first model I bought was a Chaos marine with lascannon. The first army that I bought was 3rd edition Tau. Subsequently sold the army (Tau) after a few games as I had no fun with it partially due to 3rd edition rule (sweeping advance). Once anything reach my firing lines, its time to pack up. Now with a new book I am back to the "Greater good".

Monthly 40K massive game 1

Today mark the beginning of our gaming group monthly massive game. Organized by Enrgie over at http://anythingbutones.blogspot.com/, we were playing 40K (3 VS 3) 5250 points, good vs evil.

I was not playing due to odd number of players and waking up late and feeling feverish with a runny nose and sore throat....symptoms of flu...

Good

Evil
