Tales from the Tabletop - Fun'n'Fluff After Action Report

Hey guys,

So last weekend saw myself, Medge and Tim descend on the Darksphere Megastore in Shepherd's Bush for the 1500 point Fun'n'Fluff tournament. It was a great weekend all around and I wanted to do a quick summary post of my games there and how it all went. But first there's one question that needs answering - did I actually manage to paint all my models in time?

Of course I did!....

OK they were done the evening before the event. I am nothing if not predictable. 

I'm really happy with how the whole force turned out though. I wanted to push my Custodes to the best of my abilities and I can clearly see improvement across the models over time. So here's a full shot of the Golden Host ready to take the fight to the enemies of Terra!

Tales from the Tabletop - Fun'N'Fluff 1500pts Tournament Update #1

Hey everyone and welcome to the first of two updates I'll be doing on my preparation for the Fun'N'Fluff 1500 point tournament at the end of October. The event is built around bringing a fluffy and more relaxed list and trying to have as much fun as possible. You can see my initial post here detailing what I needed to get done by the end of September. So then how did it go and am I on track?

Tales from the Tabletop - Getting ready for the Fun'N'Fluff 1500pts Tournament

With my Custodes Tale done for the year I find myself wanting to continue painting the army I've really enjoyed working on and there's no better motivator than a tournament. It gives me a hard deadline to work to and a list of units that all need to be done.

But which tournament? 

We're quite lucky in that there's a few places nearby that host regularly scheduled events but I've never been one to want to play at the cutting edge of the 'meta'. I like my games with a bit of narrative weaved in and I've always shied away from playing the Custodes to the most competitive version they can be. Which means I'd end up invariably struggling to win a single game at a standard tournament. After having a look around the local scene I found an event that's perfect for my style of play - The LWGG Fun'n'Fluff Tournament.
