October 18th as if it was Christmas.

I just received my order from meeplemart.com, one of the best, if not the best online market in canada. Friendly, goes the extra mile to please their customer, and overall great price.

What i ordered is a whole lot of battlefoam kit, Janissa (Trollblood) and the Dark Vengeance box.

My goal with these kits were to basically have my whole painted armies in tray, ready for transport, and a bag to hold them all together. So i got a bunch of foam for my Ogre Kingdoms, and for my Dark Eldar

 Sorry, i completely forgot to take picture of my Dark Eldar in trays

Pretty happy with the final result, i can now just pick up my bag and head wherever i want, without wondering if i brough the model i intend on playing. It was a very expensive kit (close to 400$ CDN), but well worth it. Painted model are so easy to chip, and i spend so much time painting them, i think they deserved it. If there's anything i'd complay about Battlefoam is that their tray are so tight, i had a few problem with my cavalry not fitting at all in their tray, so i had to use the four spot in the stonehorn's bigantic tray.



The other part of my purchase was Janissa, that does not really need any introduction (being one of the best character in Trollblood line), and Dark Vengeance. Obviously, i purchased the 40k box for the small rulebook, but for something else as well ; i'm gonna be building over the next weeks/months/years a new 40k army, mono-god nurgle crazy loving models. Everything is planned to be conversion, from the Plague Marine, to the Biker, the flyer, the transport. I want to go Greenstuff crazy, and learn to use the damn thing once and for all.

For now, my 1750 list is something similar to this ;

HQ
Chaos Lord
Mark of Nurgle, Sigil of Corruption, Murder Sword

Chaos Lord on Bike
Mark of Nurgle, Sigil of Corruption, Murder Sword

Troops
6 Plague Marines (Chaos Lord goes here to bring them to 7)
2x Plasma Gun, Power Fist, Gift of Mutation, Rhino with Havoc Launcher

7 Plague Marines
2x Plasma Gun, Power Fist, Gift of Mutation, Rhino with Havoc Launcher

7 Plague Marines
2x Plasma Gun, Power Fist, Gift of Mutation, Rhino with Havoc Launcher

Fast Attack
6 Chaos Biker (Chaos Lord goes here to bring them to 7)
Mark of Nurgle, Power Fist, Gift of Mutation

7 Chaos Biker
Mark of Nurgle, Power Fist, Gift of Mutation

Heavy Support
7 Chaos Havocs
Mark of Nurgle, 4xFlakk Missile, Gift of Mutation

Currently 26 pts over, and i think i'd like to be able to bring an Aegis Defense line to save my Havocs from some instant death shooting, and some extra anti-air power. Maybe a Chaos lord could go, but i was really enjoying seeing 2 very solid units with a killy HQ.
