Quick Update

If there is one thing I hate about my conditions is that it really saps away any motivation I have. I do get some time inbetween work and study, but for some reason I can't motivate myself to do anything. Projects (both painting and photography) are building up and already I have to start working on another study assessment. Hopefully, I'll get both the Mousling and the Dwarf projects done and uploaded this week with possibly getting the Gretchen Mob done. Well see.

The next End Times book in the series will be out soon and from the video, looks very much what the rumours have stated (Damn you Nurgle!). What has got my attention as of late was the Skaven Black Ark. I had know idea what it was and it never occured to me to look it up in all the years I've played Skaven. Looked it up a few weeks ago and now I wonder why it was never in the book, this thing is quite the device. A large rat skull device that uses three Skryre Engineers to use it (much like most cannon crews). The device can be opened (much like the Tomb King Casket of Souls - seems both are based on the Indiana Jones movie) and while opened can be used each Skaven players turn and I believes works much like a stone thrower. It's biggest bonus (or negative depending on your luck) is if your within 6 inches of it. While it's open, each turn both sides must roll (model or unit - can't remember) and any failed counts as being hit by the Dreaded Thirteenth Spell and yes, this will kill any Skaven effected by it.

While it is a nice device, it didn't appear to overpowered that it couldn't have been added. If rumours of the third book in the End Times series being Skaven is true, I do hope that this will be added in.
