AIG (achievements in gaming)

Title is a complete grab from the D6Generations segment and I love that segment the more I listen to it. Going to try and use it as a personal motivator. I might not be getting some games in but still painting and prepping stuff so here we go....

Read "Path of the Warrior" by Gav Thorpe. Good reading and nice to get some more material on the aspect warriors of the Eldar, especially the Striking Scorpions. I fell in love with these guys when I first saw them in a WD back in '90. Jes Goodwin's concept art was awesome and marked the departure from RT where we had guardians and harlequins and little else. I found the novel added some depth to the exarches that was pretty fresh given they had the potential to be so one-dimensional.

Painted some aspect warriors. Have upcoming 40k games and wanted to get some warriors better matched to my guardians colour scheme. I'll let you know which unit was painted up in the battle report. Last pics were a little dissapointing due to the amount of black and grey in teh pics. hard to see what is what so I'm working on that.

That's about it though I should be getting in a couple of games this week: one game of Arkham on Saturday (Z and Otori, I'm sure you'd be invited but I'll double check as to how much seating is available) and one or two of 40k.
