Placeholder!

Back in the day I used to play Everquest, one of the most addictive, frustrating but brilliant games ever. For some quests you would need hang around in one point waiting for a "named" monster to spawn. However, if it wasn't there when you arrived you would need to kill the monster where it should be, then in another 27 mins or whatever the named would have a chance to spawn. The monster in that place was called the Placeholder.

This post is a placeholder with the promise of a "named" proper post to come soon. I was pretty ill last week (nasty manflu cold ugh) but I did get some painting done. Some fine Thunder Hammer and Storm Shield Terminators for the Ultramarines. These were done pretty fast but I think they look good.

As I type this, the last model for my 500pt Circle Orboros Horde force is drying the final coat of varnish. Tomorrow night they get an outing against Rich's Everblight army. I have never played these guys before but they have a fair reputation- his 750 Everblight list came second in the WPS Club Challenge last weekend. Hopefully he won't be running epic Thagrosh as his warlock tomorrow! Come the weekend I should have some new shots of the Circle army posing and battling on the field. If my memory doesn't let me down I should also have some battle report.

If not, you may have to wait another 27 mins for the named to pop!
