  1. I should probably mention that I'm not after £55, I'm open to offers! James.
  2. Hey there, I'm looking to sell my Z/Collodi crew. I can only accept money and not trades/swaps. Money to be paid via paypal, I will post the items the morning after payment is received. They're all deflashed, build and pinned to scenic wooden slat bases (to give the effect of a stage which a puppet show might be acted out upon). All minis are unpainted, but ready to go! Collodi boxed set: Collodi. 3 Wicked dolls. 4 Marionettes. Also: Alt sculpt Zoraida. Voodoo doll. 2 Stitched together. Laminated cards. Puppet Deck. The lot retails at over £55 new (bases price in there too). Would prefer a uk sale but willing to post overseas if you are willing to cover the increased postage costs. All sensible offers considered. You can either post here or pm me. James.
  3. Kaelor. It had been a place of beauty once. No longer. During the Craftwars the Farseers had been overcome with visions of its demise, of it burning and twisting in space, corrupted and screaming as it was given over as offering to Slaanesh. It was then that the house of Angsar was discovered to be giving praise to the ruinous powers, dedicating itself to the pursuit of pleasure. When one fully devotes onself to the delights of the flesh, one cannot escape the notice of the dark prince forever. The seers of Saim-Hann had wished to destroy the craftworld then and there, best to save it and its people from the terror than to allow the dark prince his prize. The Farseer Fay'Elle had stepped forward to stop the madness of brothers killing brothers and had ended the life of the Angsar family head. He Allowed the sons of the family to live, seeing them as not beyond redemption, and not wishing anymore souls of Eldar kin to go to Slaanesh. This had enraged the leaders of Saim-Hann and the following conflict between them saw Kaelor almost destroyed. Fay'Elle was wise, and saw the best course of action he must take. He would have Kaelor make a warp jump to the edge of the galaxy, shrouding it with his power and taking it away from the immediate danger of Saim-Hann, and also taking it away from populated areas of the universe to protect millions from the oncoming incursion. The seers of Kaelor that had been cursed with the visions of its destruction, also had been given the sight of where the Daemonic incursion would come from, and sealed part of the webway shut against it. The Eldar would fight thier battle, and they would do so alone. Much time passed and the Eldar of Kaelor began to feel more secure. The stories passed down to the younger Eldar of the great spider who waits became just that - stories. Fay'Elle would walk the halls and myriad corridors of the craftworld staying ever vigilant for the events he had forseen, and yet they never came. He even began to doubt his own power at times, wondering if the visions he had seen were sent from some dark force to torture him with their lies. One night, whilst meditating, Fay'Elle became aware of a power, slight but true. The power felt familiar, strong yet subtle. He reached out with his mind and then the sickening horror struck him. It was his power, the same power that he had shrouded the craftworld away with, twisted to someones own end. Fay'Elle ran from his room, communicating psychically with the Warlocks leading squads of Guardians on routine patrols, readying them. He traced his power to the place where one of the sons of Angsar himself dwelt, Isentieth. Smashing through the wards around the dwelling with his mind he realised what he had done. He had been given visions of this day, and he had gifted the Angsars his own power to shroud their cult, he had taken the craftworld away from help, locked down the webway, there was no escape..... The reports almost instantly flooded in. Fay'Elle felt a sickening lurch in reality as something truly evil came into being. He felt Eldar dying, Angsar would have to wait. It was to late now, somehow the fool had opened the webway. Fay'elle felt the spirits of Eldar being consumed by the warp, something the spirit stones on each Eldars armour should prevent. With a though he readied the craftworlds Autarchs and Exarchs so they may gather up their warriors. Guardians were dying, he felt their screams as they were torn apart, but the Guardians were only militia, the craftworlds real warriors would not fall so easily. The dark princes warriors wanted war on Eldar ground? They would have it. A hardened look set about Fay'Elles features. He reached out with his mind and sought the one that called itself Mardumesh, he showed it the infinity circuit and the current of spirits it trafficked around Kaelor. He felt the Daemons lust rise, knowing this would make the Daemon more powerful, and yet more inclined to make mistakes. He shuddered as he felt, more than heard the whispering in the warp: "A fine gift indeed...." As the Eldar player I'll be doing the same as Elazar. Beginning with 1500 points as a target. The project will be joint and we'll work on roughly one thing each at a time. One of the exciting parts (if you're as nerdy as us) is the way we'll be doing this from a fluff perspective. The idea is this: As we work on units/characters etc. we will roll off against each other with dice. Each unit will have fluff of it fighting the other unit in the overall battle and the dice roll will dictate which unit wins in the fluff. Example: I paint some dark reapers. Elazar paints some Daemonettes. Elazar rolls higher than me. In the fluff the daemonettes will kill the reapers, and we both write from both perspectives. At the end of the project the side with the most roll wins, will win the actual war in the fluff. This is particularly cool because neither of us know which way the fluff will end, or what will happen next. James.
  4. You're my hero! Sounds good though, got some painting left to do, but should be finished what I need in plenty of time. I'm being all nerdy and excited about this now, just two weeks on saturday! James.
  5. Beautiful work as always. I've just started grabbing some Eldar bits and peices and wasn't sold on the Harlequins, I really don't like diamond patterns, but yours are stunning and a really great different take on a colour scheme for them. Inspirational stuff, I will now buy Harlequins! James.
  6. Ahh great news! Thanks for checking that out! James.
  7. That's great, thanks for the update James.
  8. I had a question about that. The painted comp will be at the dinner break is that right? If so, will there be time to nip out and grab something then come back to look at them all? (if indeed you find somewhere local for food!) Looking forward to this now, should be a really good day out. I'll take some pics too (with each opponents permission of course). Good stuff! James.
  9. The trigger makes it do 0 damage though @Elazar: I am a dirty cheat indeed. My shame will be passed to my sons for generations James.
  10. Oooh, so I was being naughty! D: I had read this tactic with them a few times and it was something that was odd with the wording we thought. Though I made the case for the opposite as I had seen an old ruling on something else, I stand corrected! Thanks A... err Chucklemonkey James.
  11. Hey all, Mature nephilims have the trigger "Knock aside". The wording says "After hitting enemy defender", so the question is this: If you hit one of your own models to use knock aside to gain the further charge, would the model you are hitting be considered the "enemy defender" or would it not be a legal move as the model you're hitting is your own? I've seen this used as a valid tactic on a few tacticas, and indeed used it today (Luckily the result was a little indifferent as I had range to charge anyway), but I really wanted to check to make sure I'm not conning any opponents here. Many thanks, James.
  12. Aha, I wondered. Maybe they'll add a minion she can use a spell through or something? Thanks for the reply. James.
  13. Hey there, I just started playing Z and have a bit of a question. On conduit for the voodoo doll it says: "Her Casting and spell Damage Flips receive + when targeting the nominated model" So what I can't figure out is when she would ever get the benefit of the damage flip + as she has no direct damage spells. Any help anyone can give on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, James.
  14. As a Man Utd fan, I can safely say: Pedro Mendes never scored Good luck to Spurs though, always good to see English teams do well. James.
  15. For the entries, do you think we could have a list of the user names on here? Just most of us won't know eachother personally other than the few we're travelling with, so it might be a nice way to find out which people we've seen post / replied to in the past are going? James.
  16. Ooooh Four wicked dolls! Win, thank you very much! James.
  17. Hey guys, dunno where else to ask this, but could someone tell me: How many of the wee little dolls come in the Zoraida blister pack with her? Many thanks, James.
  18. If I am, then congratulations: You're one good looking guy James.
  19. This. My gaming got into Confrontation and we spent ages getting used to the rules just as Rackham went bust (the first time :| ) then they came back with those pre painted....... things. James.
  20. Hey there! Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that you've inspired me to give Z a try! After listening to your amazing in depth interview about her and reading your article on the neverborn forum, I'm hooked! Thanks for all the work, James.

  21. Just the same as the Rathnard interview would be perfect I think. I'd love to listen to this as soon as possible, so I for one would prefer it wasn't over a few episiodes Main show for the important stuff, bonus for the whole thing, if it isn't too much trouble Great job on the second episode and bonus content by the way! James.
  22. Great stuff! Well you keep making em, and I'll keep watching them. It's always great to hear another gamers view on different subjects that I might be involved in myself, or be considering getting involved in! James.
  23. Just be careful for the cats in the houses you scratch the walls of! Very sleek and fat did the cats appear, and sonorous with purring content... James.
  24. True that. Although the very first picture could be 40k clan skyre James.
