Chroma - EPIC Titan Competition

Well, Specialist Games was holding a "Create a Titan" competition this month and I really wasn't inspired to do much for it initially. The prize of a 3000 point army plus other goodies sounded sweet, but I just wasn't sure what to do. Pipboy had some ideas, but I think he lost inspiration as well as the month progress. One also had to write up the stats and flavour text for this new War Engine so it combined both modelling and creative skills.

Suddenly, I was inspired! (I think it might be the new shower head I got as I've been getting some really creative ideas in there! *laugh*) I scrounged around for bits and pieces and worked out something that, I think, is really cool. Now, the submissions for the competition just closed this week, so no judging has occurred. I'm going to keep the full glory of my creation under wraps for the time being until after I've found out how much I've won... ;) But here's a little sneak peak:


BloodNGuts, Pipboy, and I are going to try and set up a 4000-5000 point game to take my creation out for a spin. More word when we've worked out that plan!

Chroma - The Changing Ways of the Eldar

Hey there EPIC comrades! Summer has been a busy time for all of us here, though I have been averaging two games of EPIC a week for most of it. Mainly been focusing on playtesting the proposed rules changes put up by the Eldar Army Champion Sotec over on the Specialist Games forums.

One of the cool things that happened is that he and I actually got to play a few games when he was down here visiting family. I did up battle reports and you can see them here.

Sotec vs Chroma Battle 1

and

Sotec vs Chroma Battle 2

I've gotten in a lot of other Eldar vs all-comers games as well, just head over to the Eldar Forums at Tactical Command to check them out!
