Gents,
I made it into the store to rape some 40k items. Got a Bastion, glued it together and based it with GW brand Chaos Black paint... which freakin rocks! Best paint I ever used.
Note: Learned something from directions attached to the cap. When you are done using your spray paint for the time being, you are supposed to invert the bottle and spray until only gas comes out. It only takes a second. Then your caps will never get sealed by paint ever again. I am embarrassed I never knew that.
Anywho, I picked up the Black Templar Codex, as well as Some Chaplains (Who really rock in BT Codex) and a commander sprue. On payday I am ordering 4 sets of Black Templar conversion packs and probably another bastion set or the landing pad or something.
The Bastion has great potential for any Tournament or Game. Ensure it is equally between the two deployment zones, and put a comm relay at the top. Com relay allows those who own the bastion to re-roll failed reserve rolls. The Lascannon on top is equally useful. Models inside cannot be assaulted until the building is wrecked, in which the terrain leftover is difficult and dangerous terrain. There are so many things you can do with these things! Plus its really really easy to assemble.
I also bought a 30 dollar gaming mat and 2 counter sets.
