40k BatRep 003 – 1,500pts Orks vs Tyranids

With life getting in the way, it took a little longer to polish the editing of this one off.  So without further adieu…

Orky Project – Lobba 2

The basic Lobba video tutorial is done.

You can download the planz here ==> DHD-Lobba_plans_v1

If I was a better blogger, I would have remember to take more photos and updated this page a little better…

I also created a ‘quick’ tactics video as a companion to the tutorial.  I originally was going to only have one video, but once the tutorial got close to 20 minutes, I didn’t think adding another 5-6 minutes of me yammering was the best choice.

*Edit*

A couple pics of the completed work.

Orky Project – Lobbas 1

OrkBigGunLobba

After to listening to several podcasts and reading articles on the interwebs, I’ve come to the realization that Orky big Guns are actually useful now thanks to the release of 6th edition.  With artillery crew receiving the toughness of their weapons (T7 Grots!!), these units now have significant staying power. Plus the Lobba can ‘snipe’ targets withe indirect fire rule.

The thought of nine S5 blast templates firing every turn makes me a happy WarBoss, but paying $35.75 CDN a piece does not.  So my plan is to scratch build as many as I can using the following materials…

I’ll be putting together a series of videos that cover the steps of building together your own lobbas, starting with a basic kit, then a more advanced version.  I will also be updating the blog with in-progress shots as thinks get done.

40k BatRep 002 – 1,500pts Orks vs Grey Knights

Took a little longer to edit than I’d hope, but here it is… enjoy…

 

New 40k Battle Report Coming Soon

Just a couple pics as teaser for the 40K game I filmed on Saturday and am just about done editing.  A super fun, causal game against Grey Knights.

Happy 2013! Big plans for Deff Head Dice

A little late, I realize, but the thought is still there.

Its going to be a busy year for Deff Head Dice, with all that I have planned for 2013.  I’m aiming to produce more content for the YouTube channel on a regular basis as well as updating this blog more regularly.  I put together the following 2013 Preview Video that will cover the majority of what I’d like to accomplish over the next 12 months.

Quick Overview

Battle Reports

  • Aiming for 2 to 3 a month
  • Mix of 40K and WarMachine/Hordes

Warhammer 40K

WarMachine/Hordes

  • Bring my Trollbloods up to two 50pt lists, adding to the Box-to-Battle Trollblood series
  • Start working on my Cygnar

Painting Tutorials

  • One a month, depending on material (and what I am currently painting)
  • Mix of 40K and WarMachine/Hordes

That should be enough, but I’m sure there will be other stuff I throw in as well…

 

More BatReps

Busy week for games (well for me at least). I got in a game of WarMachine/Hordes with Les AND a game of 40k with Mark.

The WM:H batrep has been posted (links below) and I’m starting to edit together the 40k batrep, aiming to get it done by early next week.
