Doubles Tournament at Big Larry's Comic Book Cafe!
I know its been almost 2 months since my last post. Ive been busy with the holidays as well as working on my Lizardmen and Chaos Marines.
But on January 29th there will be a cool tournament at Big Larry's Comic Book Cafe in Leonardtown Maryland. It is going to be a doubles tag team tournament using 1250 points per player 2500 points per side. It will have three rounds using a point system similar to 'ard Boyz. There will be three scenarios that have yet to be announced. You cannot change your list every round. You must play with the SAME exact list all three rounds and must be within 10 points of 1250 points without going over, no more, no less.
The entry fee will be 5 dollars and will be put towards the grand prize. The Grand Prize will be a Battleforce of the winner's choice. The second place prize will be a 50 dollar box of the winner's choice. A third place prize has yet to be announced and it is not yet specified if the prize can be made into store credit. The Tournament organizer Sean will add in the difference for the prize if the entry fees do not cover all of it (most likely it wont).
The only rules are no proxy and the model must be assembled, painting is not necessary. You MUST go by WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get).
I will enter the tournament with my Chaos Space Marines and use 3 troops in transports and have Heavy fire support.
I will add more info as the date comes near.

'ard Boyz 2011
Im going to also have two units of Plague Marines in Rhinos equipped with Power Fists and two Meltaguns each, but I may mix it up a bit with Plasma Guns as well. They will be used to run up and hit vehicles as well as any other unfortunate victim that strays too close. If points allow im going to have third Rhino with a 10 man Basic Squad of Marines with Meltagun and Missle Launcher but that has not been finalised. Depending on the scenario i may swap out units and add some summoned daemons to hold objectives and whatnot.
For Heavy Support I want to field 3 Obliterators and one or two Defilers with Twin-Linked Lascannons. Thats pretty much the idea of long ranged support. I dont want to field armor over 12 due to Lances. Thats pretty much it for Heavy Support.
But im going to be working in a Daemon Prince and maybe termies but idk yet.
I will be entering the first round at Dream Wizards if they are doing it

Time for the war to begin! LIZARDMEN!
Ive been planning on making a Fantasy army ever since I started 40k but I never got started due to the rumors of 8th Edition. When I heard the rumors were confirmed I wanted to start a Fantasy army but couldnt because of financial reasons. So my friend Derryl made a deal with me that he'd get me a Battalion of my choice to get me started if I painted up some of his Dark Elves to help him prepare for Games Day 2010. So I painted up his hydra and calvary as well as one of his lords that needed to be rebased and balanced. I was thinking about what I should do as an army, at first I wanted to do Vampire counts but I thought they were a bit too advanced for a first army. I thought about Skaven but I didnt like the whole sewer rat thing. So I looked into Lizardmen and they were PERFECT! I love the whole Shaman thing they have. So when a big shop sale started I got the Army book for Liazardmen and Derryl got the Battalion for me to start me off.
After I got home with arms full of boxes I went right to work assembling the models. It comes with 50 models. it has 12 skinks, 10 Temple Guard, 8 Calvary, and 20 Warriors with all optional wargear....except for the Skinks that didnt have a Musician or Standard Bearer. So I decided to convert one Skink into one using a bit from the Calvary sprue. Now since it came with 12 skinks and i only needed 10 in a formation I took one out and converted it into a Skink Priest taking a Javelin cutting the head off and adding a greenstuff orb making it a Staff of the Lost Sun, I also added a Shield giving it an enchanted one keeping with my 50 point magic item limit. Also I found a huge score, the Calvary came with these Scenic peices that are snakes...I had a 40mm base lying around so i stuck one on it and make it a Jungle Swarm! I have 3 more snake bits I plan on using for 3 more snake swarms if the one swarm does well in a game.
My Lizardmen will not be my main focus as of now. My Chaos Marines are still my main focus. But I will be getting a Skink Chief in a week or so and I will be saving up for thr 8th edition rulebook so i can actually play the army effectively. So keep an eye for any upcoming Lizardmen videos on Youtube.
Goodnight and Good Luck!
Kyle

Games Day 2010 results!
They showed a 60 second trailer for the Ultramarine movie and I gotta say it looks pretty cool...although it is most likely for sure rated R due to alot of blood splatter and visable headshots in the trailer!
But other then that I played a couple games and made a piece of terrain from the Make and Take table. Now I dont have time for a long post but I will have some content on youtube about the event. I couldnt get much because for some reason my camera wasnt at full charge -.-

Swamp Breaker Backstory and "The Androm Heretic War"
The Swamp Breakers were given a planet in a system called Androm on a Planet called Zeta which already had small colonies and needed protection from Dark Eldar raid parties. The Swamp Breakers got their name because the planet Zeta was covered by about 65% Swamps but in the grassy regions it was like an Oasis and that is where many of the colonies resided. The Swamp Breakers lived with the natives during short peacetime and created Family like bonds with them. The Imperium disliked the bonds with the natives and ordered one of the Salamander Captains to investigate this. The Captain discovered that the Swamp Breakers were much stronger willed then any he has ever seen and they would protect them even until death. The Captain reported back and said just that and the Swamp Breakers let them be but occasionally Techpriests from Mars would go to Zeta every 100 to 200 years to perform purity tests in case they are under the influence of Chaos. In about 300 years they had nieghbors, a newly formed successor Chapter called the Silent Knights who were created from the White Scars gene seed. They were given a planet in the same system in agreeing with the current Swamp Breaker Chapter Master at the time, his name was Chapter Master Zak. Zak was a powerful Marine who was the second Chapter Master in the Chapter, the First being killed in a Dark Eldar raid protecting a village. Zak wore Standard issue Terminator Armor with a tanned leather robe with the Chapter insignia and wielded two large Lightning Claw. He was always the first to strike and never let an enemy lay a blade on him or a shot hit him.
One day his First Company Captain noticed Zak in his quarters crying. The First Company leader was Captain Kyle, a strong willed Marine who was the most loyal and respected man by the entire Chapter. Kyle was not as tall as the other Captains, he was around 6 feet tall while the rest were 7 to 8 feet tall. His armor was reinforced with additional ceramite plating and three solid plates hung down over his legs, two at each side and one in the back similar to that of a Samurai or Shogun. Kyle usually had a Jump Pack but when he is off duty or indoors while not in combat he has it off and does not have a standard issue backpack. Kyle asked Zak, 'Whats wrong sir?". Zak did not respond and they both went to the war room in the Headquarters that was inside the civilisation that has been growing since the Chapter came to Zeta. The Techmarines received a signal from the Silent Knight Battle Barge and Chapter Master Zar claimed that we declared war against them and that they will be the first to strike. Kyle was shocked and said "Thats impossible! No signal was sent out!". Zar played the recording of Zak saying that he had declared war by Nurgle's wish. The transmission was cut off and every marine looked at Zak in total shock. Chapter Master Zak said nothing. Every marine in the room drew thier weapons and aimed them at Zak. Kyle pulled out his Storm Bolter and aimed it at Zak's head. He spoke softly to Zak. "Why would you do this?" Zak then replied as he pulled his tabard to the side showing what looked like rotting flesh. "I belong to Grandfather Nurgle now...." The 5th Company Captain snuck up behind Zak and drew his power sword and readied to attempt to slash Zak for his betrayal. Kyle yelled to the Captain. "No dont!" Zak extends his lightning claws spinning around and litally cuts the Captain clean in half several disks of his waist hitting the wall as his lifeless body falls to the floor. Every marine open fires as Zak rips the door open and vanishes.
Kyle cries out in disbelief. "Why Zak!? Why betray us!? Damnit!" Every Marine in the war room looks at Kyle as if asking what to do next. Kyle looks around at every marine and sighs. "What do I do now?" A transmission comes through unannounced. The face of Chapter Master Jeremy of the Dragonhide Chapter appears on screen. " What was that I saw? Zak is a traitor?" Kyle looked at the screen. "How do you know?" The Master of the Forge who was at the transmission console raises his cybernetic hand and speaks in a mechanical voice. "Sorry bro...thought we could use some help..." Jeremy looked at Kyle through the transmission. "Looks like the Swamp Breakers need a new leader." Kyle blinks and looks around the room and then points to himself and speaks a bit confused. "Who?...Me?" Jeremy smiles and nods. Every Marine in the war room raises their fist in the Swamp Breaker salute agreeing to this and they all yell out the Swamp Breaker battle cry. "All who oppose us shall die by our great machines!" Kyle nods and raises his fist in the air and speaks proudly. "As the First Company Captain and in agreeing with all the Swamp Breakers and Dragonhides, I appoint myself Chapter Master Kyle of the Swamp Breakers and oppose the traitorous Zak!" Kyle's birth brother James who is the Master of the Forge at the transmission console decides to broadcast Kyle's speech around the planet. Kyle then yells out after his speech. "For the Emperor and the Omnissiah!"
The Dragonhide Battle Barge arrives at the Zeta capitol, Chapter Master Jeremy of the Dragonhides is greeted by Chapter Master Kyle and they both quickly act and set up defences both on the ground as well as in orbit. The Silent Knight Battle Barge comes within range and begins firing onto the orbital defences of Zeta. The defences fire back but are soon overwhelmed. Surviving Marines use drop pods to escape the orbital barge and land on the planet. The Orbital barge is completely destroyed and explodes. The Silent Knight Battle Barge enters orbit but in minutes a Dragonhide Battle Barge comes into view from behind one of the 3 moons and begins open firing. Meanwhile down on the planet Silent Knight Drop pods land on the surface outside the Zeta Capitol and fully armed squads spill out and begin open firing on the gates with Melta Guns and Lascannons. Defensive turrets begin open firing on the Knights killing them off one by one as more pods drop outside the city's walls. Inside Zak sneaks around the shield generator facility and reaches the core. Zak's body is rotting and slowly dieing as if being preserved by the diseases that ravage his body. He puts on his helmet to protect him from the plasma core. He walks right up to the core his armor heating up as he extends his claws and begins slashing the core until it eventually explodes in an instant causing the facility to rip apart and the explosion takes out a 200 yard radius. Zak is shot back outside of the explosion radius and lands in a city street, armor smoking as it cools down. Several Swamp Breaker and Dragonhide Marines surround Zak and aim their Boltguns at him firing at the first sign of movement. Land Speeders hovering over the wreckage from the explosion as the shield goes down and Silent Knight Drop pods start falling into the city.
Zak slowly stands up as every marine around open fire on him...some rounds bouncing off some piercing. But Zak is seemingly unaffected by every shot as he goes berserk and begins slashing every marine killing them all. Meanwhile all throughout the city civilians are being evacuated using Thunder Hawks as bloodshed consumed the city as Space Marine fights Space Marine. Chapter Master Zar of the Silent Knights drops into the city inside a drop pod and bursts with his Honor Guard with him. All of them walk down the city streets shooting any marine that is in their way and heads towards the Command Center where Kyle and Jeremy are guiding all of the Thunder Hawks to a moon on the other side of the planet. Kyle sees Zar on one of the security cameras. " He is here... Jeremy, you keep guiding the Hawks out of here..Ill deal with Zar." Kyle walks to the armory and gets his personal Jump Pack. He notices a Pickaxe used in mining crystals to the north to fuel plasma cores, the Pickaxe uses the same technology as a Power Weapon and is often used as a weapon by civilians who worked in the crystal mines. He grabs the pickaxe and turns it on, a light glow covering the blade as small arcs of electricity jolt around the blade. He puts on his Helmet and grabs a compact Stormshield and heads out to confront Zar.
Kyle appears at the top of the stairs leading to the command center as Zar stops at the base of the stairs. "What the hell are you doing Zar? Zak betrayed us and sent a false declaration of war to you! We should not be fighting!" Zar grinned under his helmet. "Who ever said it was false?" Kyle yelled out. "All of you are traitors!?" Zar nodded as he raised his Powerfist as if directing his 5 honor guard to attack. Kyle quickly reacted as he jets right down the stairs and slices a honor guard in the chest with the pickaxe and smashes his shield into anther..killing both of them instantly. The other three charges forward as Kyle waits until they are feet away and jumps up into the air.....leaving a frag grenade at their feet. The grenade detonates killing them. Kyle land on the stairs. "Look Zar...I don't want to fight you..." Zar laughed and charged forward and swings to punch Kyle with his Powerfist. Kyle steps to the side with ease and smashes the Sstorm
Shield into Zar's side wounding him by crushing his power armor and smashing his ribs. Zar cried out in pain. As he tried to smash Kyle with his Powerfist but Kyle swiftly moves out of the way before Zar could hit him. Zar yelled out. "Stop moving!" Kyle laughed. "Catch me if you can!" Kyle fired his jump pack and shot straight up into the air and then back down head first and Storm Shield in front of him. Kyle smashes into Zar at full force knocking him to the ground. Kyle raises the pickaxe above his head and brings it down and lets it dig into his chest through his power armor. Zar cried out in pain as Kyle pulled it out and brings it down again into Zar's shoulder. Kyle pulls the power pickaxe back out and suddenly gets blown back by an unknown force. Suddenly a mist begins to gather and form into a humanoid shape. The figure speaks coldly. "Don't kill my servants....this one called Zar is quite useful to me...." Kyle growls as Swamp Breakers and Dragonhide Marines gather around Boltguns aimed at both Zar and the figure. Zar raises his hand at the misty figure and cries out. "Tzeentch! You saved me?" The figure who was called Tzeentch turns around and nods a visable smile appearing. "Yes I did...now come my pawn..." A portal to the Eye of Terror opening and swallowing Zar into it. Every Marine open fires into the portal until it closes. Kyle feels a sudden calm come over the war torn city. Bodies strung everywhere you look. Portals opening and sucking up all of the remaining Silent Knight Marines as well as Zak who slaughtered hundreds of loyalist marines. In orbit the Silent Knight Battle Barge gets sucked into a large portal before the Dragonhides could destroy it.
For several minutes there is nothing but silence. Kyle walks through the streets of the city seeing his battle brothers slain, maimed and ripped apart...He then sees the bodies of 6 Swamp Breaker Captains and countless bodies everywhere in the rubble of the plasma reactor detonation radius. He immediately sends out a role call. "All Captains, Chaplains, Techmarines and Librarians report in!" Seconds later voices are heard. "Second Company Captain present 80% casualties." Then a Second voice. "Fourth Company Captain present 95% casualties." Then a mechanical voice. "I am here little brother." Then another. "Techmarine Tzel present." Kyle sighs seeing that almost the entire Swamp Breaker Chapter was slain. "Alright...salvage what we can...I need to contact Terra...."
Kyle sent in his report on what happened and they sent the Gray Knights to investigate and they confirmed on what happened. The Silent Knights and former Chapter Master Zak are traitors and attacked the Swamp Breakers to please their new Gods. Chapter Master Jeremy of the Dragonhides made sure every civilian survived the attack. Although under the circumstances every surviving Swamp Breaker was put through rigorous purity tests and all of them passed. The Gray Knights burned all of the Silent Knight corpses on their home planet and orders were issued that only Swamp Breakers may set foot on the planet. All of the fallen loyal were laid to rest in formal burials and the fallen Captains were sealed in tombs inside the Chapter Chapel. Fortunately one Captain survived and was plugged into a Dreadnought to fight on. But in the end only two Companies survived and later on a third was founded as a Swift Strike Company called the "White Knuckles". The new Chapter Master of the Swamp Breakers have forged an Alliance with the Dragonhides and a forward base was founded on one of Zeta's small moons that was named "Vili" meaning Willpower. Eventually the Swamp Breakers rebuilt the cities. Every marine assisted in the rebuild and in the process the number of Techmarines grew and the First Company was refounded as a Tech Company lead by the Master of the Forge that is often called James. The Chapter remains small even to this day. The events that happened are then on called....

Swamp Breaker Army Point Count!
Yeah the picture is kinda crappy because it was taken at 10:30 PM but thats the size of it and i have every unit type grouped accordingly. Now below I have the point value and wargear typed out so I know what has what and how much it costs to field so i can pick and choose stuff for smaller games.
--HQ--
*Chapter Master w/ Power Pickaxe, Storm Shield, Artificer Armor, Jump Pack = 195
-Honour Guard 3 Strong /w Relic Weapon/Banner and Aux Grenade Launcher = 190
*Master of the Forge w/ Conversion Beamer and Power Axe = 135
--Troops--
*Tact Squad #1 10 Strong /w Power Sword, Rocket Launcher and Meltagun = 190
*Tact Squad #2 10 Strong /w Flamer = 170
--Transports--
*Rhino /w Extra Armor and Hunter Killer Missle = 60
*Razorback /w Extra Armor = 55
--Elites--
*Techmarine /w Servo Arm, Boltgun and Thunder Hammer = 80
*Venerable Dreadnought /w Extra Armor, Powerfist/Heavy Flamer and Assult Cannon or Plasma Cannon = 200
*Dreadnought /w Extra Armor, Twin Linked Lascannon, Missle Launcher = 160
--Fast Attack--
*Assult Squad 10 man /w Powerfist, Combat Shield, Two Plasma Pistols = 250
*Land Speeder Squadron 2 Strong = 190 Together
-Typhoon Standard = 90 Alone
-Tornado /w MultiMelta = 100 Alone
*Bike Squad 3 Strong /w Powerfist and Flamer = 120
--Heavy Support--
*Land Raider Crusader /w MultiMelta and Extra Armor = 275
*Devastator Squad 5 Strong /w 2 Plasma Cannons, Missle Launcher and Lascannon = 190
*Ironclad Dreadnought /w Extra Armor, Powerfist/Heavy Flamer, Chainfist/Meltagun and single Hunter Killer Missle = 170
Total Points of ENTIRE Army = 2510 Points
Holy crap...only 2510 Points!? I thought I was close to 3000 Points. Eh oh well, at least I know now I can field it all in 2500 Point games and kick some serious ass! >:D
I have every tank and dread with Extra Armor just for mobility reasons so they don't get stuck for too long. This army is very versatile and can face against any army in any table setup if I deploy in the right way. I normally field Tact Squad #2 in the Land Raider as backup and field Tact Squad #1 in the Rhino and take advantage of the access hatch to pop tanks and infantry and get away safely. I Field the Honour Guard and Master of the Forge in the Razorback and set up the Master Of The Forge at a spot he can fire his conversion beamer without interruption. The Honour Guard stick with the Master Of the Forge to watch his back. The Razorback sticks around as well in case the enemy decides to go after them. Mt Artillery Dread is normally deployed behind cover to provide heavy fire on tanks and infantry alike while my Venerable, Ironclad and Techmarine march forward and go after infantry and light tanks. My Assault Squad sometimes stay in reserve for deep strike or late deployment as my bikes turbo boost around the board like crazed junkies supplying confusion and cover fire for infantry as well as tank popping from behind. The Land Speeders stay back and shoot from a distance and fire on incoming enemies as well as supply supporting fire. My Land Raider lays waste to infantry as well as assistance in tank popping. My Devastator Squad deploys behind cover and sometimes march forward to supply volley fire using the plasma cannons and frag missiles as well as tank popping with the lascannon. My Chapter Master joins the Assault Squad and goes after infantry.
Well that is a rundown on what I do with my units. I will have tactics on each unit from time to time when I feel like doing it.
Hope you enjoyed! :D

Nurgle Sorcerer Work In Progress
Yeah its that creepy, imagine a slime monster but all cute and cuddly...and it looks like it wants to give you a hug! O,o
Here are shots from 4 angles
Cutest Nurgle slime EVER! I simply sculpted a blob of green stuff and added spike bits from the Possessed Marine kit for its arms and spikes, i also added the knife in its side as if some unlucky person got hugged!
Now on to the good bit. You want to see the Sorcerer right? RIGHT? Ok here it is. Its not done yet, I still need to sculpt up his back and add more rot to his body. His wings were a pain to get in place and i had to use wire to hold it all up using the sword as an anchor but it looks good after the fact.
Shots from 5 angles
Awesome right? I love how this guy is turning out, I hate to see him go...Let me know what you think?

Warhammer Fantasy 8th Edision Launch Party....Meh
On July 10th Comics MD held a launch party for the new Fantasy Rulebook. I hosted it and Brian let me borrow the rulebook a week before release to read it so i know how to play for the party. When I got there Iplaced an order and went over prizes, there was to be a 50 dollar raffle for anything up to 50 bucks in the entire store. So we told anybody who came that we were having one and anbody who played a game using the new rules could be entered...Derryl showed with his entire Dark Elf army and he read up on the rules. We played a game with our 2 Lords, his Dark Elf Lord was mounted and had a weapon that ignored armor saves. I had oaken armor on my Wood Elf Lord that granted a 6 armor save and regeneration, and i gave him a sword that granted +1 attack. We went into close comat in turn 2 and he beat me easily. For the second game he lent me a mounted pikemen as a proxy for a Spellsinger and he geared up his lord to rack up points, so i had 2 models against 1. We ignored the percentages for this game by the way. I used my spellsinger's Bones to Stone to add plus 2 toughness to himself and he got charged. My spellsinger got one wound on the lord and then he took my Spellsinger out. Then he went after my Lord at full force, this time I charged him and pretty much smashed him with my 8 init'. Sadly Derryl had to leave after our games and nobdy else showed.
All that was left at the end of the day was Me and Trevor..Jimmy said to just make it a 40k tournament since five 40k players came to play 40k. So we split the raffle between us and got our stuff
He added 5 dollars onto his store credit and got the Ork codex
I added 10 dollars onto my store Credit and got a Chaos Space Marine Cult (Squad)
So it was pretty good in the end.

The place where it all happens! COMICS MD!
Okay enough of the rambling heheheheh. I am going to start supporting Comics MD when it comes to Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy Battles. Every Saturday from Noon to 7 I manage the games for Warhammer 40k and I've been dunking my head into Warhammer Fantasy since the big 8 is on its way! So every Saturday I hang out the the Comic Shop and play Warhammer 40k all day and help people with their armies and offer conversion advice to help them save money. I met the owner of the shop and discussed what I've been doing and he was not fully aware of Warhammer 40k being played every Saturday for the last six months. For the last couple of years 40k and Fantasy were on the down low and hardly anybody played until a small group of gamers came back and tried to start it back up with surprising success. Now we always have 2 players upstairs and on a good day we have up to 4 or 5 people playing. If we have 3 or more people we usually put two tables together and play a big game or "Mini-Apocalypse". So if you live in the Southern Maryland Area or in Maryland itself come on by on Saturday from 12 to 7 and play some 40k with great players and a friendly atmosphere.

Secret Project Unveiled....CHAOS SPACE MARINES!!!
Enough backstory, I'm currently too lazy to post anymore but I'm sure you get the idea. This is my secret project I will be working on over the next 6 months. Why 6 months? I don't have alot of money to pour into a second army so I'm going to start small....very small. I'm sure some of you are thinking "You already have a Generic Space Marine Army...why start a Chaos Space Marine Army?", reason being I think they are very cool and from what I've heard they are really fun to play. Although Jawaballs told me on his live show last night that Chaos Marines do not play well as a competitive army so it might be a fun army for Apocalypse or even a Tournament if I build a solid list that uses the better units for better purposes. Now I'm going to show you what I'm going to get first to start off. Since the codex is 30 bucks I wont be getting alot, so ill be getting this blister shown below...
It doesn't seem like much at first but this may be the only unit I'm going to get this upcoming Saturday along with the codex. This badass dude is sporting a Powerfist with what seems to be a CombiMelta, although I think the blister I have on hold may just be a sort of Hand Melta but I wont know until I get it. He does have standard Power Armor and he may have a invulnerable save but I dunno yet until I get the Codex. I will say this now I HATE bare heads...they are a pain to paint and make them look good...so ill just give him a helmet. And for the record I like Helmet-heads better because I like my army to be as emotionless as possible, which is what I'm going for with this army.
Now I will be getting more units as I go but I might only be able to get the HQ blister this upcoming Saturday because some of my money goes to guitar lessons that are actually more important then this addicting hobby. This blister is actually only 10 dollars at my local hobby shop but I also need to get the codex and primer as well as paints for the color scheme which is what I'm about to discuss.
Now I decided to go with a Winter color scheme, Snowy White for the Primary color and an Icy Blue for trim and details, I used the Bolter & Chainsword Chaos Marine creator to create a basic image of the scheme below...
Now that I think of it a off white/whitish grey with a white highlight would work..but eh ill figure it out when the time comes. As I said these guys are going to be cold emotionless soldiers. They will follow the Chaos God "Tzeentch, the Changer of Ways" because the other gods would not fit the style I went with for these guys. They would be more silent and precise as if they were intelligent tacticians. And my second HQ will most likely be a Sorcerer. Hell I've even come up with their battle cry...well a wip battle cry lol. Tell me what you think of my concept for a Chaos Marine Army. Oh and I do have a name for them...The Silent Knights!(think about it....its from somewhere....) Take care and hope you like this :)
"Let the hands of change guide you to power, do not fear the dark Knowledge as it is a Gift from Tzeentch." Silent Knights Rally Cry (wip)
