Do I know what I am doing?

 

No.

 

Does it matter?

 

No.

 

Will I have a good time?

 

Hell Yes!

[Raindog]

With all of my smoke antics, I really need Djanbazan!

[Raindog]

One.

 

I have been spraying a Warsenal Tower my wife got for me last X-Mars.

 

Two.

 

I added a few more tokens to my collection for the Rampage.

 

Three.

 

I played two great games tonight.

 

First, I would like to thank Fate and Fury for having a great store front. I picked up the new female Bandit the Nomad faction. I love Bandits. Heck, I love the whole irregular camo troop ilk. Bandit Killer Hacker are a solid model for table use. The ability to infiltrate and hacker through opposing repeaters can wreck EVOs and bipedal hackers alike. The boon is the model is beautiful. CB makes great models, but this one is above their average.

 

I picked up a Black Friar to trade Rudra for the Djanbazan Hacker he does not need. The store has great prices, best in the Metro.

 

Second, thank you George for setting up the League and bringing the mats and many boxes of terrain.

 

Then, I played Exile as Joe from the store played I, scenario was from the upcoming Emerald City Incursion. It was a version of having antennas in a plus shape by having a specialist touching it. The center 16 inches is an exclusion zone. The key is this is a limited Incursion. 10 models. No more. There are only a handful of button pushers to complete missions. It is hard with Haqq and Ariadna. Both factions rely on cheap, light troops to support a few heavy hitters. I did not know it was a limited incursion until I showed up. Heck, I did not know the scenario. Thankfully, I made a for fur list inspired by Rudra's list. I pulled it off the list and played Exile.

 

Exile played NeoCapitaline awesome with a Bolt team, a Cutter, an Uhlan, a Pathfinder, a Machinist and playboy, and a pair of Devas. If you get a chance, check out Exile's Unlan is a beauty.

 

The game was close. The Fasid laid cover with smoke as the Khawarij and Ghulam Docs grabbed objectives. A Deva and a Pathfinder grabbed others. We fought back and forth. The Pathfinder made a ton of armor saves. The Machinist and pal bot kept bringing the Pathfinder back into the fight.

 

I made more crits and a few essential armor saves that let me grab an objective with my final orders to win the game by a point.

 

Then, I played Budikah. I had not met Budikah until tonight. He is great guy and the type of person I love to play against. He played NeoC as well with a Fussilier team, a Locust, a Swiss ML, and an Uhlan.

 

Budikah jumped in on a last second invitation. He really did not read the mission and had never played Haqq. He had not experienced Smoke tactics.

 

His Swiss Guard Missile Launcher rained down death.

 

I went for the objectives and healed an Al Hawwa for my classified objective.

 

We played fast, probably too fast for Budikah. He dominated the center of the table with trifecta of the Swiss Guard, the Uhlan, and ML Fussilier and his fireteam. The Fasid held out a long time with smoke, but eventually fell.

 

I killed the Locust and Rambo'd my hacker to possess his Uhlan. The Uhlan did little. It stinks at changing face, but I turned it on his troops and blasted his specialist off an objective. Budikah shot his Uhlan off the table. That is a win for me and just plain fun.

[Raindog]

The Al Fasid is a good piece. It has armor, good weapons, smoke, and mines. If I am on the bad end of a Firefight, I launch smoke. It is strong enough to take a few hits and can blast weaker troops. Tonight, I used it to cover objectives, so my specialists could score.

 

Between the Fasid and Mutts, I see I need Djanbazan to play shoot through smoke games.

[Raindog]

This would probably be a better Limited Insertion List:

[NakedPanda]

Mutts are amazing

you only need them to work decently ONCE, and form that point on you have the best 5 pt threat that they will pull hair out to take out hahaha

[Raindog]

Sekban, I am assembling Sekban. There are two sets of bodies: One for the rifle and boarding shotgun, the other for the spit fire and chain colt.

[Justjokin]

I love the models, some of the first that I purchased for Haqq... Not sure what to do with them.  Seems like we need some zero-g missions...

[rudra34]

Sekban can be very effective on their own with solid stats, 360 visors, and good weapon choices.   In vanilla the spitfire is probably your best choice, and will be great on guard duty if you pop them into suppressive.

[Raindog]

Sekban are also a good Haris team.

 

They were pain to put together. The support arms and weapon arms do not go well together.

 

The new female Hunzakut and Tariqa were easy to assemble and had little flashing at all.

 

I may use Tariqa as a Ghulam Hacker or Doctor.........

[Raindog]

I found my missing Azril model! Woo--hoo. Time to model assemble him while I am waiting for paint to dry,

[Justjokin]

I love my Azra'il with the Feurerbach, one of the models that first attracted me towards Haqq.

[Justjokin]

Painting up my Erika High Rank Counselor model right now...

[Raindog]

I love my Azra'il with the Feurerbach, one of the models that first attracted me towards Haqq.

I went with the HMG.

[Raindog]

Last night, I assembled my Top Down Terrain displayed tray. It is great. As a tip, sand the interior of the slots before assembling the tray, to ensure all the bases fit.

 

Then, on the worst day to paint, I put some layers on a few pieces of terrain. It was way too humid. It took ages for layers to dry.

[Raindog]

Yesterday, I received my next set of Horizon Bases from Top Down Terrain.

 

Tonight, I sand up the outside of the bases..

[Raindog]

My Miniature Market order came today! I set down and out together the first Hafza. There was a great deal of flashing issues. I drilled a barrel hole for the spitfire. The model is a like a half generation back for they perfect their 3-D rend process. The arms do fit quite well. I drilled a bit out, so I make a better fit.

[Raindog]

The other two Hafzas were of little problem. I added a bit of green stuff to the arms to fill very small gaps.

 

The Djanbazan hacker had backpack issues. The interior needed to be trimmed a bit for a good fit. I added the green stuff on the edges of the back to fill the small gaps.

[Don't Panic]

Which stage did you get!?

[Raindog]

Only the basic one. It was a gift from Chris. I love it.

I played Evan. He ran up a Karkot Renegade, blasted both of my link teams, killed both my doctors, and my game went downhill quickly. It was a rout. I went Into retreat on my last turn.

 

Other than the Azrial HMG, I had no long range fire. That was a mistake, but it is always good to try new things in friendly games. 

[Raindog]

I have been spraying Top Down Terrain bases and four pieces of terrain now that it is not pouring out everyday. 

 

Second, I have been assembling, but not basing more models: A Jannissary HMG, a Muyib Rifle and Muyib Spitfire. The Muyib needs a bit of putty work. The Jannissary is a new generation model, so very easy to assemble.
