This has been a very, very busy month in 40K for me. So a quick recap of what has gone down so far and upcoming here tomorrow:

- I've been asked by Mark of Bud's Place in Leeds, AL to take over the 40K event management and organization for the store. This is a great opportunity and Mark has given me his full support so far in what I would like to accomplish. My mission is simple and straightfoward: to provide events in which newer, returning and casual players feel welcomed and encouraged. There will stillbe the occassional tournament, but most of the events that will be coming down the pike will be for the more casual player. Tomorrow/today is the first event "Meet the 6th Edition" in which smaller games will be played with an eye on ensuring all the new rules are followed and being learned.

- I've gotten in 2 more 6th edition games this month (3 games in one month plus at least 1 and up to 3 games tomorrow? This is a new record for me!). One against Charles and his Necrons. I got tabled. Badly. By turn 3. It was a sad sad day. I also played against Ken and his Tyranids and lost 8-4 or something like that.

- Pics coming soon, but got my Munitorium Servo-Skull Tape measure, Munitorium Templates and Munitorium Battlefield Markers. I also picked up the Tyranids Codex, Vol. 9 and 10 of Imperial Armour (Badab War), ordered some corpse field resin bases from Secret Weapon Miniatures and got my Hive Tyranid. Why did I get a Hive Tyranid?

- I've officially started my second 40K Army, Tyranids. I've got a couple lists made up at this point and still doing some minor fine tuning, but I expect to be able to field 1000 points within a couple of months. I am still intending on finishing up my Grey knights army, most likely by picking up the starter box in Sept. which will have (expected anyway) Dark Angels, which will act as Allies and some Chaos stuff to build a third army down the road.

Next month promises to be as busy, with plans for:

- A Casual 40K event at Bud's Place at the end of the month.
- Getting some Termagants for my Tyranid army and starting to develop the paint scheme.
- Trying to get out at least once more for a smaller game of 40K.

More details on all of this and some hobby progress to come in the near future, so stay tuned!
