Here It Goes...

Ah! I see you've stumbled across my First Post. You should know from trolling around blogs that it's clearly an introduction to me and my many many scribbles.

This is another likely failed attempt at a project blog. I've made several before and deleted them, but I think I have a few ideas that may keep this one around for a while.

My biggest hobby has been collecting miniature wargaming armies; Warhammer: Age of Sigmar has been my primary game for the past 6.75 years since it replaced Fantasy Battles (of which I played for about 2). With the release of Fury of the Deep in January 2022, I've collected at least 1,000 points of nearly every AoS army (Only Sons of Behemat is short at 985, but it is exempt as 1 Mega and 3 Mancrushers feels like a good stop point). The first long term goal is to have it all built (Within this year is not unobtainable), and get it all painted (Significantly more unobtainable, but I have a long time left to go).

The biggest hurdle to getting AoS armies complete is that in last year I decided to go all in on doing the same for Warhammer 40K, and have since doubled (if not tripled) the number of boxes I own. There are a few other games as well, I have all but three non-collectable models for Guild Ball (currently defunct), I have a collection for the original four Warmachine armies, and much of Super Dungeon Explore pre-Legends Kickstarter (which I'm not against, but with the other collections I've put zero effort into trying to support the game/company). Warcry I almost always try to collect, but it is filed under the AoS project. Necromunda on the other hand is something I have wanted to get into (I think it's under $1K to buy everything), and even bought the Dark Uprising set (I love a nice complete terrain set), but have not moved beyond that due to realizing I got enough stuff.

Two accompanying projects I have also been working on are settings for future solo campaigns I have in mind; The first is a desert world I’m merely going to be using my AoS models in, but have decided to make it my own setting instead of tying it to AoS, with the tentative name Tyrant’s Desert. The second is a far-future setting that is based in the 40K universe I’m set on calling The 50th Millenium.

A recent troll through blogs was what made me realize that my initial plans for YouTube were more work than necessary, and that while writing is not my forte, a blog may be a great medium for projects. And without further ado, you are here.

The Tyrant's Desert

In my lone journey across the Desert, and from the tales of other survivors that I have studied, I believe myself to be the world's most learned scholar on what we humans call the "Sands Beyond Ilvenlor". From Ilvenlor in the southeast, two paths lay before you:North or South To the North you will come through a mountain pass before reaching the Northeastern Desert, noted by it's central mountain ranges that the Dawii once called home. That is, the race's former home. Dark Wizard of the Dawii cast his spell and unleashed unspeakable horrors into this reality, forcing the Dawii to flee with whatever possessions they had on them at the time. The majority made a long trek south through Ilvenlor and beyond. Not a proud moment. Many of the race's grizzled Old Guard turn the younglings into New Guard, and whatever race they end up next to at the bar usually has to pay for repeated drinks in order to shut them up for at least a few seconds while they down drink.
