About Xenos and Proud

This is a small blog about my Warhammer 40,000 hobby. I will try to concentrate on the tactics behind the general game and my Xenos armies but there will be the odd post about random stuff.

About Me

Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Xenos and Proud is an 18 year old from Scotland who has been playing 40K for the last 4 years. He loves the 'under-dog' xenos armies, namely his Tyranid Gorgon splinter fleet, his Saim-Hann windrider host, his Tau Vleastean Hunter-cadre and the newest addition, the Shadowfax Corsairs. Although his tactics are mostly 'borrowed', his painting skills still 'developing' and his luck becoming evermore 'ridiculous' he continues to play, paint and roll in the hope that one day things will get better.

Friday Fluff: Dark Reaper Armour

Ok this is a quick post as I just had 2 teeth out (wasn't too sore) but I thought I should share this cool thing I learned a year or so ago about Dark Reapers.

'All who fear death, fear the Reaper.'
It was basically that I heard from a GW staff guy I was talking to told me that the Dark Reaper is meant to be like a solid exoskeleton, unlike all of the other eldar armour. It not only 'locks' in place when it's time to fire but also acts like the Iron Man suit from Iron Man, holding the weight of the gun and moving in time with the wearer sot they feel no weight and is easy to aim and fire. The Reapers can also 'see' through their gun's muzzle through a psychic link to gain unprecedented accuracy.

Very cool.
