Burning of Prospero Unboxing videos

Hi all

Today we are fortunate to be in the position to show you our in-depth unboxing of the Battle of Prospero Boxed Game.

We were blessed by Games Workshop with a pre-release copy weeks ago, and since then we have been tight lipped about anything to do with the game.

We actually filmed us discovering what was on the box art and  what was in the game too, as before this moment we had no genuine idea what was actually included. We look at everything from the dice through to the boards themselves.





Hope you enjoy the unboxing. We have lots of things to show you over the coming weeks including painting guides, a video play through as well as reviewing the Custodes and Sisters on the battlefield.

Vlka Fenryka are here! finally!! Fenris Hjolda!!!

Finally my favourite Legion has arrived! I am about to drop a bomb on components!!!

So lets have a look at them




Big fan of the compatibility between the Marks. Looking at the one above it does fit with at least the MKIV and MK III.

Do like the grey too.



 
 
 
Then the pads. Fantastic contrast of the red against the grey.
 
 


 

 

 

 

A very good set of components. Now we just need the heads!!!


All in all a great looking release in my opinion.
 

Thanks to Demetris of FW:
Undercoat with Mechanicus Standard Grey spray, shade recesses with a 50/50 mix of Nuln oil and Agrax Earthshade, Highlight with Administratum Grey and some fine edge highlights with Ulthuan Grey on the sharpest edges. Gold is Retributor Gold, shade with Agrax Earthshade and highlight with Runefang Steel. Red is  Mephiston Red, shade with Nuln oil, touch up with Mephiston Red, highlight with Evil Sunz scarlet and fine edge highlights with Fire Dragon Bright. Silver is Leadbelcher, Nuln Oil and Runefang highlight. Black bits are Abaddon Black, highlighted with  Dark Reaper and then with Fenrisian Grey. Bone bits are Dryad Bark, Rakarth Flesh and Pallid Wych Flesh highlights. You can add some Seraphim Sepia around bolts or vents around the model to simulate gun oil or dirt etc.

Getting extremely excited for book 7 now.

Battle Bunnies 20 Legions of Xmas: Vlka Fenryka

On the sixth day of Xmas Santa gave to me: 
Russ-is-a-slaying
Sa-vage laugh-ing kill-ers!
Dirty Ditch Diggers
Per-fect-ion
+++ Records Expunged +++
And a Legion full of Mys-ter-y



Legion: VI
Name: Vlka Fenryka
Former Names: None
Primarch: Leman Russ
First Captain at outbreak of Heresy: Gunnar Gunnhilt (Absolute Legend)

Forge World Colour scheme (sent to me a while ago):

Grey Armour

Basecoat of Dawnstone which is highlighted with Administratum Grey.  Wash this with an equal mix of Badab Black, Lahmian Medium and water.

Brass

Basecoat of Warplock Bronze which is highlighted with Rune Lord Brass. 

I will be waiting to see what FW paints are released before I start my favourite Legion. 



Sample 2500 pt list with Primarch:

Wolf Lord (Praetor): pair of lightning claws; melta bombs; digital lasers; iron halo 170

9 Tactical Space Marines: chainswords; nuncio-vox; legion vexilla; + 1 Tactical Sergeant (heavy chainsword; melta bombs) 200
• Rhino: hunter-killer missile; dozer blade; extra armour; heavy bolter 75
11 Assault Space Marines: 2× power weapon; melta bombs; + 1 Assault Sergeant (artificer armour; pair of lightning claws; melta bombs) 395
4 Tactical Support Marines: plasma guns; + 1 Tactical Support Sergeant (artificer armour) 185
19 Tactical Space Marines: chainswords; legion vexilla; + 1 Tactical Sergeant (artificer armour; power weapon; melta bombs) 325

4 Terminators: Cataphractii armour; 2× combi-weapon; power fist; chainfist; heavy flamer; 2× pair of lightning claws; + 1 Terminator Sergeant (combi-weapon; thunder hammer; grenade harness) 271
• Spartan Assault Tank: twin-linked heavy flamer; hunter-killer missile; auxiliary drive; armoured ceramite; flare shield; multi-melta 380

Russ inc Freki and Geri (estimated) 500

2,501 points

Summary: I have written this list to showcase their brazen savagery. Melta Bombs mean they will all be able to tackle any vehicle the unit may encounter, it also puts enough feet on the ground (which the Rout were renowned for). Stick Russ in the Sparten with his Bodyguard and Russ Bomb their front lines, with the Assault squad and Rhino keeping up behind and charging the turn later. The 20 Legionnaire squad led by the Wolf Lord will attack his own targets and try to claim objectives etc.
