With the warriors of the Asuryani having one of the oldest codex still in production, the Craftworlds are feeling a bit tired in 9th. The list of units that stand up to the current state of play is getting shorter and shorter and its fair to say the book needs a true overhaul rather than… More Fixing Craftworlds, part 1 (of many!)
Episode 68: Insane Clown Posse The clowns are back and that means we have to jump up and down and dive right into this latest psychic awakening of the killer space elves with a penchant for checks and 80’s hair. Mikes first 40k army way back in the dark days of Rogue Trader (and the late… More Episode 68: Insane Clown Posse
Runes of Battle, casting and confusion. The prevailing assumption for matched play seems to be that when casting a power from the Runes of Battle (we will use Protect/Jinx in this post as the example) you selected which version of the power to cast at step 1 of the psychic phase process and should you… More Runes of Battle – dispelling the confusion.
Asuryani Wraith Mobility Following on from the previous articles on Asuryani Wraith forces – one of the most common issues that you face when adding wraith units into an Asuryani army is one of mobility – they (appear) to be slow and easy to avoid and most players take the easy route and run them… More Asuryani Wraith Mobility

I have several I could work on but one has jumped out… More Ghostly forces – Wraith Constructs snapshot

Phoenix Rising, a Review – Part 1 Its been a while coming (at least it feels like it!) but Phoenix Rising is finally here. The first book of the psychic awakening campaign is here and much to my delight it covers 3 of my favourite factions… Craftworlds, Drukhari and Ynnari. For today, I’m just going… More Phoenix Rising, a Review – Part 1
Lifting the (monofilament) shroud on the Night Spinner The Night Spinner has (up until recently) been an overlooked and underused Craftworld unit… and with some good reason.
