Close Quarters: Taking Your Kill Team Into the Dark

This was a nice big project, but I got to burn through a ton of B movies while painting. I'm glad to have both open and closed boards for my new favorite skirmish game! 

Infinity Haqqislam: The Daylami

N2/3 Daylami

I've been working my way through a new Infinity army, the Hassassin Bahram. These are a subfaction of Haqqislam consisting largely though not solely of specialists of various sorts. 

Current Daylami

Daylami, pictured here, are experts at being cheap, disposable and dangerous. Their role is to hide and present something dangerous, then pop put and fire an antitank missile at an approaching baddie. 

Voidscarred Corsairs are my third Kill Team

I should not have bought a new Kill Team with five unpainted ones in the queue, but I couldn't resist. These Voidscarred are a call back to the OG 40k, and every single one of them is a great sculpt. 

Starstorm Duelist 

Kurnathi

Felarch

Soul Weaver 

Kurnite Hunter

Shade Runner

Blaster Gunner

Shredder Gunner

Way Seeker 

Fate Dealer

I really leaned into these guys. It was fun, but I dunno if I will keep up this level of intensity. There's a joy and a freedom to sketching! 

An Obsolete Terrain Board.

 I was halfway done before I found out that this terrain wasn't suitable for Kill Team 2021. Argh! Those doors took so long! 

Ah well. At least now I have some sci-fi doors. 

Edit: here are some better pics of the individual pieces: 

My Three-Body Problem

My three-body problem is: 

Is this one building? 

Or is it three? 

This great kit was a recent gift. I think it'll make I nice strongpoint, or a table quarter's worth of urban sprawl. I'm even tempted to paint up my MDF stuff now! 

And now the Navy Breachers

 The dam has burst and I am eager to paint up these cool little team projects. 

Breach

and Clear

I painted them up in the same uniform colors as the Voidsmen in my Rogue Trader retinue (previous), as I imagine they are from the same ship, valiantly blocking the Gellerpox Infected from the shuttle so the retinue can escape. 

I had my first game with them this week - the game is fairly complex, but starts in media res so there is action from the jump. It's got legs for sure! 

My First Kill Team: the Elucidian Starstriders

Presenting the Elucidian Starstriders from the Rogue Trader Kill Team supplement!  

Lots of ornate details made these guys a lot of work. I've always been fascinated by the Rogue Trader angle in the 40k universe though, so the effort was worth it. 

Plus I will probably learn how to play this game this week! 

Specialists, and the boss lady
