A New Year of Loot!



Glad tidings to you and yours from The Art of Caesura!

I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas! I sure did! Those readers who've been on the Caesura train since last year will remember that I like to leave the major reminiscing and reflecting on the past year for the birthday of the blog (aged 2 this year!), a few weeks hence. But don't worry, you didn't rise out of your turkey and eggnog-induced coma for nout! Today you'll be getting a couple sneak peeks at what lies ahead for 2018!

Eagle-eyed readers may have noticed that one of the books I was reading earlier in the year (which I list at the bottom of each blog post) was the Kharadron Overlords Battletome. 

Since then, I've been formulating all sorts of awesome ideas for this new army I'll be starting this year, and my amazing wife got me jump-started with two brilliant models from the range:

...gotta love the top hat and moustache guns!

I have big plans for this ship...

 The next one I'm super excited about is: NECROMUNDA!! My fam got me the starter box a few weeks ago and I can't wait to really sink my teeth into it! I still haven't decided which House I'm going to fully invest in, but with pictures they've shown of House Orlock, it might have to be them...
My lovely wife with this lovely game!

 Now, those were just a few of the adventures that lie ahead. I kickstarted two even bigger projects and they're set to land early in the new year:

The first game was awesome, this one looks very intriguing indeed!

I love Orcs, I love zombies. I think this is going to be a good fit!


So, a new Age of Sigmar Army! Necromunda! A new World of Smog! My first forays into Zombicide! And doubtless many other projects along the way! We've a big year ahead of us, so buckle up and enjoy The Art of Caesura!

The Full Stop - Trench Crusade

The skies shall darken, the ground shall open up and the screams of the damned shall echo through the ages. - Novae Revelationes 99:24, Trench Crusade Greetings friends of the Caesura, and welcome back to your Friday dose of The Art of Caesura! I hope you are well, and I'm sending loads of positive vibes your way, especially if you need them today (and you will after reading of the awesome Grimdark horrors ahead).   Last week we left off looking at my plans and aspirations for Hive Fleet Klendathu, and today I had planned to show you the test model that I have painted for this Starship Troopers-inspired Tyranid force. However, something cool is afoot, and it's kind of time-sensitive... That's right - there's a Kickstarter (which has now raised over 2 million dollars!) for a very Grimdark miniatures skirmish game and it is due to end on Tuesday, so I decided to reschedule things on the blog a little to draw your attention to this before you miss your chance.  I am talki...

The Full Stop - A Deep Dive into Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol

Welcome to Combat Patrol!  Whether you are a new recruit to Warhammer 40,000  or a seasoned veteran,  Combat Patrol is all about getting your forces  into action as quickly as possible. - Combat Patrol Rules - Games Workshop Welcome back to the Art of Caesura! Recent readers will see that we've been looking at our fun little Warhammer gathering, KillCon over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago I provided a narrative verion of my game of Combat Patrol of my Black Templars vs. Tristan's Tyranids where as l ast week I gave a more "gamer oriented" play-by-play of the game.  Today I want to dive deeper into this accessible and engaging game-type. I want to argue that Combat Patrol is not just for beginners. Combat Patrol in 10th Edition is Games Workshop's new smallest scale Warhammer 40k game type. But unlike in previous editions, where it just meant that both sides took 500 point armies and went at it, in this edition, Games Workshop has changed things up a litt...

"Recitation of Faith" - Terminator Chaplain Conversion - Part 1

Chaplains rouse Space Marines to war  with their litanies of faith,  and never is this spiritual fortification more vital  than amidst the blood and horror of boarding actions  and beachhead strikes. - Games Workshop Hello all! Welcome to your weekly dose of The Art of Caesura! As usual, I'm sending you lots of positive vibes, especially if you need them today. After almost half a year of Hellboy content on the blog, it's time to return to my beloved Black Templars. I have actually been working away in the background over the past few months, polishing off a few high-profile projects for my Templars. The first of which I will begin to reveal today! Today is the first part of a kit-bash that I'm pretty proud of. We're going to be looking at it in detail over the next few weeks and today we'll look at the build.  For those unfamiliar with Black Templars, they are inspired by crusading knights and are really not fans of psychic folks (the whole "burn the witch...
