The Kytan performed well in his first outing. He stripped a few wounds from Mortarion before assaulting and killing him in one combat round before Morty could even swing back. He the dominated the centre ground, anchoring the rest of my army. My berzerkers and spawn cleared my right flank and by games end I was so far ahead on maelstrom and kill points (a tourney practice game) that victory was assured.Iain Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17876991065320009088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153056688144511913.post-18043492832479445592017-10-16T11:33:39.115-07:002017-10-16T11:33:39.115-07:00It usually works the other way for me.

Not that I wouldn't like to have them, but the terrible reputation of some kits (like the Sicaran tank) simply puts me off. Good luck with the paint job. Cheers.

I've picked up quite a few second-hand Models in my time, and the condition most of them are in is just appalling. I really don't understand how people could spend so much money on some of these things, and then so little time and effort to do them justice.WestRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10221228665636182019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153056688144511913.post-37196306958685007242017-10-14T11:38:23.167-07:002017-10-14T11:38:23.167-07:00Will have to get some of that nail polish remover,...Will have to get some of that nail polish remover, seems to do the trick, plus 10 minutes is better than overnight in stinky dettol!
