There's another deadline approaching for getting into The Indy Open! On Jan 7th, Pre-registration pricing is over! It's time to get registered for the low price of $40. The date of March 3-4th isn't too far out!
It's kind of a crazy price to get into a 64-man GT.
so What is this Indy Open GT I've been talking about?

My Panzer III's From The Plastic Soldier Company
by SandWyrm
Mrs. SandWyrm pulled a fast one on me for Christmas. The Panzer III's that I had ordered from the Plastic Soldier Company finally arrived last Friday. But she secretly hid them from me and wrapped them up as a present. Then she made me guess what the present was before I could open it.

The Talos Pain Engine. Better than expected!!!!!
I have had 6 games with my dark eldar and have been pleasantly surprised by the Talos Pain Engine. Most people will tell you not to take this model because he is slow, has random attacks and his ballistic skill 3 isn't good enough. Well I say bah humbug to that!

It's been 3 already?
by: farmpunk
theBack40K been around 3 years today.
Which seems weird to me. It's a long time, and yet not such a long time all at once. And yet, it's time for the birthday / anniversary post again.

Last Day Of My Tallarn Auction
by SandWyrm
This is it. In a little under 9 hours, someone will walk away with my wonderfully painted Tallarn IG Tournament army. Come on 46 watchers. Now is the time to make your move. Or are you going to let one of the best looking IG armies in the world get away from you without a fight?

The Lifting Of The Veil...
by SandWyrm
In Greek, the word 'Apocalypse' literally means 'The Lifting Of The Veil'. Well, it's just about Apocalypse time for Games Workshop. Their whole comfortable little world is about to be turned upside down by the advent of cheap 3D printing. We'll then see whether GW can remove the mask from it's eyes and adapt to this new reality.

So... Who Wants To Buy A Nicely Painted Army?
by SandWyrm
Alas, the time has finally come for me to say goodbye to the Tallarn 13th. If I can get a good price for it, that is. I'll be putting them up on eBay later today.

Working Up An Afrikakorps List
by SandWyrm
That Free North Africa Tiger List that MCT posted a link to yesterday is just about perfect for what I want to do. So I've been working on formulating a 2000 point army around it.

Stealing another's post
By Chambers
Right.
So it is no secret that I post less frequently than the rest of the writers here, I would like to blame school for that. I haven't had the opportunity to touch my toy men since the hard boys semis at the beginning of the semester.
Yep, this semester has been a wild ride which I can thankfully finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Emo ranting aside when I got the chance to indulge in a little pre-turkey debauchery with Chosen1.
I jumped at the chance.
