Last weekend I played the Card Pimp in Question's new Nid army. I played a variation of the Brotherhood, testing the new Scouts and Hunter squads with Plasma. I also loaded two Fangs units - with reduced Missiles - in Rhinos, to test firing out of the hatch.

For No Apparent Reason
Before we begin... no, I haven't been fired from Bell! I didn't submit an article yesterday because I was just beat. Larry was kind enough to fill in, but my article will be online tomorrow.
The Mighty Mighty Carlos' Imperial Guard.
Yea, I know.

Brotherhood Update: Scouts and more Troops
I'm continuing to add to the Brotherhood, with the idea I'll be able to test and play practically every major build in the book... then I'll start on the units for the Brotherhood Shrikers or the Brotherhood Assault Angels or something.

Hard Boyz Round II, Part One
So Hard Boys 2011 has come and gone... and if you want to remind me there's another round, I'd say, "PPPPSSSSSTTTTT!"
Round II is Hard Boys! It's the reason we play, right? As a reminder, me and Everyone's Brother From Another Mother Big Whit (who's now dating a 21-year old, so is probably way too exhausted to be reading this) went to Chicago for Round III two years ago... and it sucked Hard.
Here are a few of the armies - and I wish I'd taken the time to take pics of all of them! It's fair to say I was very, very impressed with the general quality of list at the Comic's Asylum venue. Kippah Jim, one of my new favorite people, played the army that knocked Goatboy out in Round 2; that is, an all Terminator Grey Knight List... 50+ Terminators marching across the board! Awesome!

That Guy Update
First things first; I genuinely appreciate the comments and emails I received yesterday. Sincerely, thank you! It was great to get the mail-tone on the phone, because I could check the mobile and take a few seconds to relax.
It helped to feel connected to the world outside the hospital.
The important news is my father is now the Miracle Man. I didn't mention it yesterday, because it was bad bad bad.
Like Not Brent. Not just bad beans, but bad news.

Now I'm 'That' Guy
I always swore I wouldn't be that guy.
I wouldn't assume I was always right. I wouldn't try to force others to see the hobby my way.
I wouldn't be that guy.
I wouldn't enable ads on Strictly Average... and now it's large enough that means something. This is an extension of my hobby; it ain't work.
I wouldn't be that guy.
I wouldn't forget there are real people behind the typeset that magically shows up on my miracle-box.
I wouldn't be that guy.
But I wouldn't, above all else, drop personal details about my life, forcing people to either ignore the too-much-information post or feel obligated to type niceties they may or may not feel.
I wouldn't be that guy.
My father is being driven to Fort Worth for emergency surgery. My wife and I happened to be in the Metroplex, taking in a show. We're now waiting for the ambulance to pull up.
The wait is driving me nuts. This is my stress-relief.
Crap.

Deamons at 2500: Updated List for Review
It's important never to rest on an idea, which brings me to this army list. I played an won Round I with Daemons, but currently I intend to take the Brotherhood to Round II - for a variety of reasons.
Still, applying my concerns about what I may have to face brought me to this army list.

TableWar Display Tower! In Progress...
Well, I've been working on a super-professional-super-awesome video highlighting the awesome that is my new TableWar Case... then I get an email from Doug saying Reecius scooped me on Dakka!

Stolen Content: BrassScorpion's Marines!
I did a (I thought) nifty tutorial on Bell yesterday, but perhaps the coolest part was a link dumped in the comments by one BrassScorpion, a Dakka Dakka, er... dude.
Dakka-Dude?
Some I'm stealing it to pass on to you!

Brotherhood Cavalry (plus: Go To Bed, Brent!)
This post is a bit of nothing, really.
Finally got around to putting the Heavy Horse on the proper-sized bases. |

Hard Boyz Round One, Game Two
Yes, yes, yes - I'm perfectly aware that I've not been updating Strictly Average enough... but have you listened to the weather? The heat wave over the midwest is unreal, and my place of residence in North Texas is breaking all manner of records. Between that and working double duty at the hospital, I've been flat worn out.
Which isn't to say I haven't been working on stuff; rather, I just haven't been blogging about it yet! I've got a ton of material, just waiting to use. For now, let's roll in to a quick battle report.
