I picked up the new Greenskin codex for fantasy. Really impressed with the binding/presentation. Finally GW is going full colour. Good layout, easy to read and built for the beginner or the vet. Haven't delved too far into it yet, but hey, gives me an excuse to at least basecoat what I have laying around.
Put the finishing touches on a Chaos Lord on a bike, with a daemon weapon. Banged out a scenic base - basically a cliff/jump of stone, with space marine helmets underneath. The lord is a bit of a kitbash, using a unique head, one of the less possessed posessed backpacks, and the flaming sword from an empire wizard kit. He looks awesome. I'll post pictures as I work more on it.
Only thing I am concerned about is that the scenic base is going to give me LoS issues, since he should be able to safely ride behind a rhino without being seen at normal base height. I'm sure that the rulebook covers scenic bases though if I recall. At the very least I can clear it up with my opponent before I start any games.
Also primed up some Chaos. Giving up on the Black Legion scheme for my army, going to go with my own scheme/chapter. More on this later.
Played a game with my Tau vs IG doing a battlemission. Great close game. It really looked like it was anyone's game in the last few turns, but in the end I managed to get the victory.
In the next few days I plan to get my but in gear and get the start of the planetary empires campaign that I'm promoting off the ground.
