Long Lost Update

The final Call to Arms league is slow going this time. Participation is down, which is to be expected I suppose, given the imminent release of Mk II, and perhaps lack of desire to continue with Mark I. My own schedule has been thrown topsy-turvy, and I have only been able to get in one game so far; we are in week three of our league if that tells you anything. I was able to get in a 500 point game in week 2, when I noticed I had left most of my unit cards at home somewhere, so had to put together an all-beast Kaya list, which was a lot of fun. Mark brought a Xerxes list and I got subsequently trounced. Oh well.

On the modelling front, I have been primering like crazy. I want to get all of my Circle models and what Retribution models I have, all primed, so I can spend my winter months painting. The only place I have to prime is in my garage, and it will quickly become too cold in there to do it, so the rush is on!

The new pictures of the Caine sculpt and the Cyclone heavy cygnar warjack are posted on PP's front page, and all I can say is woo hoo! The anticipation of some Mark II Cygnar is almost unbearable, and I can't wait to paint the Cyclone. It is an awesome model.

I also love the idea of multiple sculpts of warcasters, and Caine's new one is sweet. I hear that pNemo is getting a resculpt as well, and that one is probably the warcaster (of Cygnar) who is most in need of one. His old model is sorely lacking in the quality the rest of the models have (remember I'm talking pNemo here; eNemo is freakin' awesome in the aesthetics dept), so I am eager to see what's in store for the old man's new look.

Still have the last Schism post to write and post. Until next time...
