Old time Warhammer-er. But happy to explore.
Lots of Nurgle, but with the occasional Ork and other things. Mainly AoS, Warcry, Necromunda and 40K if I can be tempted.

I suppose I should do an intro post for pinning.
So, hello, my name is Rictus and I have a problem. I have too many ideas for things that is healthy or useful.
I often dabble with Nurgle in various systems, but also known for Ork vehicles and I dabble here and there in other things.

Probation Officer did not take kindly to being bundled out of the house the other day and has issued a Final Warning letter, so there goes any last vestige of my wife's mental health today.
Meanwhile, I need orders urgently, so

Took my youngest niece to the National Football Museum in Manchester today and then out for food.
She's having a hard time & needed a day out away from things.
I still feel a bit crap, and it has been a long day, but well worth it.

It seems appropriate I've been ill while seeing the Nurgle previews.
Anyone who follows me on here probably knows I like Papa #Nurgle and his generous followers.
So, as I'm sitting here short of breath, here are my first thoughts on what is coming...

After months of waiting my #TrenchCrusade warband have been despatched.
Warbands were sent out in order, I picked the last one to be sent out, plus accessory sprues which also delayed it. So one of the last to get their physical rewards.
If I'd known at the start I may have gone all digital...

Plan for this weekend was:
Saturday - go and watch my niece play football and take her for a drink/food.
Sunday - go to IPMS Model show and spend more time sorting house before moving.
Instead I'm ill. Appears to be covid, but test wasn't conclusive. Certainly worst I've felt since I had covid.

Part 3 ordered to complete the Illustrated and Annotated editions of the Eisenhorn trilogy.
Very much enjoyed the first two annotated books, so looking forward to this one.

With an eye on moving soon im trying to be ruthless and cutback on books.
A box for charity.
Enjoyed reading them at the time, but never going to reread them. Better to pass them on for someone else to enjoy than they just sit on a shelf.

I swear GW Mail Order now only have small, large or very large boxes to post stuff out.
But my KT big statue thing has arrived. Will end up broken on Necromunda.

Fun game of AoS last night against Kruleboyz.
Painfully lost GUO in second turn before he had done anything to a shed load of shooting.
In the end Maggotkin one, though we only had 3 turns due to time.

Finished my entries for SMC. Keeping one back until after the show, but I reworked my Flower Queen's face on feedback from Fen Model Show judges, and super happy with the improvements.
