Ah, WH40K 5th Edition!
So in the morning, I go get my lamps (thank god!!!) and get to buy a new fan for the loft, and grab tables for next weekends trip. I have to watch my amount of ER next week. With getting sent home early this week, plus the ER I have taken while being sick, I afigure I am about down to 30 hours this week.
Believe it or not, I just returned from a much needed night at the game store. I headed down after work to see if I could get a game, or demo to try out some of the new 5th Edition rules. Not much for gaming, but I was able to sneak a peek at the new 40k Core Box.
Okay, so I have been out of wargaming for almost a year, and I am trying to get a Chaos Army Assembled and painted in 30 days, but man - o - man, that new Core box kicks some major ass.
For $60 you get 112-page Mini Rulebook, Dice, New Military Style Templates, and almost 50 Citadel miniatures, including: a Space Marine Captain, 10 Tactical Space Marines, Five Space Marine Terminators, a Space Marine Dreadnought, an Ork Warboss, 20 Ork Boyz, five Ork Nobz and three Ork Deffkoptas. All new sculpts and pretty freaking nice! A PLASTIC WARBOSS!
I like it alot! Looks like I will have to squeeze $60 for the core. Iggy, one of Talon's regulars have offered to trade me Space Marines for Orks out of the new core, so for $60, I will have a pretty nice start on an ork army.
Not bad for:
2 Ork Warboss's
40 Ork Boyz
10 Ork Nobz
6 Ork Deffkoptas
Add 2 battleforces, each containing 20 Ork Boyz, 3 Ork Warbikes and an Ork Trukk, and you have:
2 Ork Warboss's
80 Ork Boyz
10 Ork Nobz
6 Ork Deffkoptas
6 Ork Warbikes
2 Ork Trucks
Not even sure what this will give me point wise, but I intend on being ready for the "Ard Boyz event coming up soon!
All I need to do is get that Chaos army painted and then get it sold. Then I can go ahead with this new plan, and actually have an army again. Same horrific orange and blue camo scheme I used before, just because I like it so much. Alley Viper FTW!!!!

To give an idea of what this will look like on the table top:
