Kill Team team still chugging.

Here is a small update on my Kill Team (IG portion).


As you can see I have been very unproductive! The entire IG team is built and I'm working on the Inquisitor retinue as well. I should have a more significant update in the near future.

Meanwhile, I'm working on a rules update for Kill Team: Heralds of Ruin  over on the Facebook page. Hop on in if you want to help out or just hurl insults our way.  https://www.facebook.com/groups/481345801919687/

W40k Kill Team/ INQ28 Part 2

Chugging away at this project. I finished of my first Guard sergeant to test the paint scheme.


I like the blue face paint I added on a whim.

I also finished my Commissar (from the Baneblade commander figure).


The Bounty Hunter

I went back and added hazard stripes to the chainsword and bolter.

This is one of my two IG Veterans, I'll spare you the other until I decide if I like him.

And my final update for this post is my first Inquisitor.


What do you think?

W40k Kill Team/ INQ28

And now for something totally different.

So... I may have gotten the itch to bust out an old pack of Imperial Guard Cadians (and a poorly painted Chimera) that I purchased ages ago. This may have led to an Ebay splurge on random bits. I may have also found a copy of Inquisitor at my local used book store.



I never bought into Warhammer 40K because I found the entry point entirely too high and the rules entirely too complicated for my liking. However, I've always loved the fluff. Espiacially the fluff surrounding the Imperial Guard (Astra Militarum). As a former Army Infantryman I was really able to identify with the average ground pounder of the 41st millennia. I devoured almost everything Dan Abnett wrote in the universe (I find most of the other authors lacking). Anyway, I recently stumbled over the Kill Team: Heralds of Ruin rules variant via Guerrilla Miniature Games and that reignited my desire to play 40k. More importantly It has a low cost of entry! So here is my partially assembled force of IG for Kill Team (I'll work out the fluff soon).

On to Inquisitor!

So, I mentioned the various parts and pieces I picked up on Ebay.... my wife is very forgiving. After spotting the rules and picking them up on a whim I went full in with the minis. So far I have 3 Inquisitors, 2 Guard Veterans, a Bounty Hunter, and 2 Rogue Traders.

Inquisitor 1 ( Ordo Xenos)

Inquisitor 2 (Ordo Malleus)

I'm working on a few more figure kit bash/ conversions at the moment, including one more Inquisitor (who needs 4 Inquisitors?). Hopefully I can get these primed today and start on the painting. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions about the kits I used to create these.
