Having read a certain post on Warhammer40k: Play Like a Girl I come to think of the same in my community and sadly, I find it to be a problem there too... Lots of people are complaining about codices, prices, rules and combos that people employ. It's all part of human nature: we instinctively despise something, that's beyond our control. But there's one thing I cannot understand and probably never will: to judge a player based solely on the army he's currently playing. It happened to me a few times too. I was met with unpleasantly offensive opinions just because I am playing Eldar. Only when I showed them the previous codex and got some support from my friends, people started to look more friendly at me. In the end we even laughed from some sick combos that Eldar are able to make and some ideas to counter them.
As my Iyanden collection is nearly complete, I'm thinking of starting a new army more and more frequently. There are three armies I'm interested in: Dark Eldar, Chaos Daemons and Adepta Sororitas.
The first army is really challenging to play with, but my friend already has them so I wouldn't want to double the armies but, on the other hand, they would make an formidable ally for my Iyanden as they helped the Craftworld many times over.
Adepta Sororitas has always been one of my favorites, but the current prices of the models is something that scares me off right now. They have a great codex though...
Chaos Daemons, especially She Who Thirsts, are... alluring. They would make an excellent addition to my project that I plan to use in this blog: the ancient struggle for survival of the Eldar race.
Let me know what you think! Please comment and share your ideas and thoughts!

Battle Strategies: Chapter 2, Part 1 is ready!
Greetings to you all!
As promised, I present the next chapter of my Battle Strategies:
Chapter 2: Moving around the army composition (Part 1)
In this chapter, I will try to convince you, that if you want to play effectively with an Iyanden army, you can do so without using any Aspects. First part covers the HQ and Troops review, where I put some comments on how do I use them and what role does each unit have on the battlefield. If you're interested in it, you can find it in the Battle Strategies section! Please comment and tell your friends about it if you liked it!

Another paint in the hall...
Due to loads of work at the University I lacked time to post over the past month. Luckily, as I said earlier, I found some time to paint some new models. This time, I present you my Wave Serpent, First out of four, that has been finished. You can see the results in Painting and Modelling section.

Painting Wraithblades Goes On...
Hello everyone,
It has been quite a while since I posted something on the blog but I have been very busy lately with my exams. This week seems to be more easy-going than the previous ones, so I managed to find some time and decided to work on my Wraithblades some more. I really need to move on with the painting, so that I mat take part in a major event that will be in April. There's a lot to do and very little time, but I'm hoping to finish it by the end of March. I updated the entry in the Painting and Modelling section.

An insight into my army: Part 1
As promised, I've posted an article describing my army. You can find it in the 'My army of Ghost Warriors So far there is little to be proud if it comes to painting, but much to be proud of when it comes to battles and tournaments.
A New Year, A New Post
Hello everyone,
after the X-mas break I got myself fully into writing. I've almost finished another article I've been working on since last year. It should be ready by Saturday evening. The post will give you some insight into my collection of miniatures. Not everything is finished and painted, but I want to show you what I've managed to gather through all those years of playing both Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy Battle.
I wish you all best in the newly began year.
