[ARKHAM EVENT] "Assault on Arkham 13" - 10:00am Saturday 17th July 2010

I will be there all going well, I will also be bringing Rex the Warhound titan.

My Praetorian Imperial Guard ready and waiting.

I'm thinking (only thinking) of adding some non GW Rough Riders to my army (possibly converted French Napoleonic Heavy Cavalry). Will it matter that they are not GW? I'm not a tournament player so personally I don't care so long as they look good.

Cheers Tony

excellent. the plan is coming together!!

Looking forward to it

Asylum xx

yeah be good to play an apoc game with my space marines possibly even get my thunderhawk up.

I'll be there (even if it's just to watch). If I can bully the adepts into building/painting the Shadowsword I'll bring it up too.

I would suspect that the Perry cavalry would be very small when compared with the GW figures. I have some of their ACW cavalry and while lovely they are quite fine and I think their French cavalry would be around the smae size.

What about dinosaur riders? Tamiya do a box with six or so raptor type dinosaurs in 1/35th scale and that might sort you out nicely for mounts. The riders would still be a problem unless you modify Cadians.

If you're looking for dino-riders, there's a nice line of them done by Urban Mammoth & Void...

Urban Mammoth


Void



You can order them from Scotia Grendel, but their postage is resonably expensive. However, the Void line is very cheap compared to GW and they come on 25mm slotta bases, so they're much easier to mount on 25x40mm cavalry bases.

Hope that helps.

Will be placing a first order with Scotia Grendel sometime in June so if anyone wants any of these let me know (definite orders only please)

Prices will be as RRP on;

so any ideas on what armies we will have.

We are just finalising the objectives and the narrative. It will drive where the forces people bring along will set up. more information will be going up this week! So keep your eyes peeled.

Scotia used to do some nice 1/300th scale armour including SF and South African – which is more SF looking than most peoples SF yet they were real and in service.

sunds good as long as tehres an ork or chaos player im happy

What size of Apco game?

How many players a side also?

I've only played one Apco game and it decended into chaos.

I'll be bringing a Warhounhd titan, a LandRaider a few other tanks and a bunch of Space Marines along.

I'd like to dust off my guard army for the slaughter if there's still room? Phil R from TTN BTW FYI OMGWTFBBQ.

Imaperial Guard always good for a slaughter!

you are most welcome to join the carnage.

If you need an extra platoon of (unfortunately poorly painted) praetorians I have some that would fill out the imperial guard lines? The army is too small to field but may fill out someone elses... there is a also poorly painted leman russ and basilisk to go with them.

Other than that will there be some room for some traitor marines?

More Praetorians are always good!

I will need to get my tanks built and painted.

Well, Im up for coming along, if I can figure out a way from Belfast... (anyone here going?)

Could bring up some Wolves and a few Bangles..., Nids too if they aren't shipped off by then...
