Don't Fupp with The Baldies!

Hallo. Some more work has been done to my burgeoning GSC army. Again, Citadel contrast paints are the real hero as I'm just the guy dipping the brush in the pot, then over the models keeping it semi-tidy. One of the most consistent aspects of this blog is how inconsistent I am keeping focus on a single project. Last year I painted more models in common with each other an ever before. I believe the reason for this is "The Great 2020 40K League" which is a thing that has started. Nine games and one to prove who is top dog in Cavan at rolling dice and coming up with unpleasant lists for your opponent to attempt to deal with. Another member of the gaming group (Aeldari player) has volunteered to create and update a blog about the league so that should prove entertaining. I will update my loyal readers with details when I get them.

The Assembly Of D'Keddes

The Assembly of D'Keddes is a cult that originated from Trotskigrad in the D'Keddes system. They were happily going about do their work, assimilating the proles when a large uprising occurred, funded by the Alpha Legion. After the chaos cultists overran the lacklustre PDF the assembly decided to intervene. A  large battle was fought in the ruins of the Governor's Palace with the Patriarch, barely surviving the battle. In his weakened state he mentally commanded his followers to flee the planet before the inevitably Inquisitorial circus arrived and questions had to be answered. Commandeering several Imperial freighters and subverting the crew the cult became nomadic wanderers setting down tendrils on whatever planets they could safely. Some of these tendrils have been exterminated swiftly but enough remain to pose a significant threat, planets that contain strong Assemblage numbers are: Skorlax, Dy Celiac IV and Pruscilla. They continued to attempt to infect every world they come into contact with.  So that's the Cult's weak ass backstory, here are the money shots;

Nine Hybrids go to a pub.....

Followed by fifteen Neophytes.....

Then a scratchbuilt Sanctus.....

Followed by another twenty one Neophytes.....

One Neophyte asked "Whose round is it?".....

And they all went home. True story. 

So by my reckoning forty six models were finished this January! This is partly because many were in various states of completion, but more so due to the speeded up painting times enabled by contrast paints. I now have more painted up GSC models than unpainted which is a totally bonkers state of affairs for me! The Assembly of D'Keddes are due a game tomorrow against Aaron's Blood Angels so hopefully I can furnish this blog with another cool battle report with Aaron's excellently  painted force. So until that day I will have to leave you with hopes of xenos domination over the poster boys of bad anger management.

Thanks for reading.
