"Mutants & Scum" Part 1

A beginning...

All armies start with an idea; mine was formulated way back in ~2002, when I watched my good friend Trent Le Clair play the "old" Last Chancers at a GT - 12 models plus a Chimera. SO COOL! Since that time I've been itching for a chance (haha) to do likewise.

However, as always, other armies just kept on getting in the way!

Well the 2008 Canadian GT has now been announced, and I’m sure to qualify (I’m #2 in Canada in the Hall of Heroes standings, behind my buddy, and oft protagonist Nick Daniels). I have a fine “tradition” of taking a NEW army to each and every GT season. So new that I don’t play test them before hand, and I am often seen basing the night before (much to my wife’s amusement).

This year I’m going with my “Mutants & Scum” list; Last Chancers, with Abhumans, and a snotty Artillery Officer in “Command” (I was a Combat Engineer for 3 years, and I got a skin full of snotty Artillery Officers – old rivalry from the Crimea!).

So here is the list. Pretty much fixed; don’t bother telling me you don’t like it, or what the problems with it will be (well you can, but I may not change the list!). This is the [planned] list for the event, and as usual I’m going for Theme and Fun.

Later I’ll tell you about some of the Fun stuff that the list will be doing!
