Yeah, neither the Blood Angels one nor the Space Wolves ones looked very good. Particularly the Blood Angels one as they're trying to pass off a first-born Chaplin in there!

Curse you GW! Why did they have to make the Chaos Knight battalion box so tempting 😑 I was all set to move into the new year expanding my marines and then they go and offer (essentially) a 1K list in a box at a huge discount. Ugh.

Not bloody likely. *beep boop*

Heh, yeah that's why I went with Crusher Stampeded for mine - ain't no way I'm painting more models in a single unit over what I now have to paint for an entire army!

First game of 11th Edition with my (new) Marines tonight. Only a small 1K game, as the rest aren't built yet. But will be interesting to see how they do as compared to my Tyranids who played same opponent about a month ago and wiped the floor with them. Also counting down the days until half-term so I can get the 1K list painted up (hurrah for speed paints!) whilst little 'un is at Nursery.

Probably not much use, given it forms part of a much wider package/website, but we use the Options module within Applicaa for ours.

Awesome. Then I'm sure the students are having an absolute blast!

*puts down one model* Okay, I'm all deployed.

Congratulations! That sounds absolutely amazing, your students are so lucky to have someone so invested in ensuring the club is a success! - and kudos on securing the funding. If you haven't already, I'd definitely consider spending some of it on terrain, as that always helps the games feel bigger/more immersive than the good old d.i.y. hills/buildings made out of text books etc.

100? Must be on sale.

So having managed to ..... acquire .... a copy of the new Space Marine codex (or at least, photos of the pages therein), unfortunately the Blood Raven idea is no more. Librarians are .... suffice to say no where near as interesting as they were in 10th, even before the new detachment came out. However I found my Soul Drinker omnibus over the weekend and found that they've actually brought them back as Primaris marines with a bit of backstory, so have decided I'll probably be doing them instead. One of the detachments (Tacticus Firestorm Force) seems good fun, so will give that one a chance I think. Plus, I always loved purple stuff! (Dark Elves, Slaanesh Daemons, even my nids are purple & pink!)

Here we get the student to save it on a USB (they use laptops) and they're then escorted back to my office (Data & Exam Manager) where I can print it and collect it for them to then sign every page. The only exam for which printers are necessary for us within the IT suite themselves is A Level Computer Science Paper 1 (coding), due the entire test being required to be on computer. Otherwise it's laptops + USBs + me printing on their behalf for everyone.

Can't say I've ever experienced that issue at any point over the last 9 years I've been using Arbor (in various schools). It does talk about URLs - is there one listed within the club's description/on its page anywhere? Otherwise, would definitely recommending flagging with your support - either Arbor directly or 3rd party, whichever you pay for.

Arbor pretty much does this all for us already: But we're currently just a single academy rather than part of a Trust, so unsure if it will be as much use at that level.

Yeah, holding out hope that the Librarians follow a similar thing to Ork Weirdboyz in terms of changes to how they work, which might make having a specific detachment for them slightly superfluous. But will have to wait and see. Might end up just doing them as a modelling project if the rules don't seem particularly conducive as I don't have much else on currently apart from putting transfers on a bunch of Panzer IVs for my 2nd SS (which won't take more than a single evening once I get round to it!) for Bolt Action.
