40k League - 11th - Season 1 - Round 2 - Division 2
Mirror mirror on the wall, Who can predict the most of all, Is it Jack with hairline way back?… Or does he just chat shit and pretend he knows what he’s talking about With Round 1 complete we can see how well I managed to predict the game’s outcome and prove my mystical powers beyond any doubt. First to face the might of my foresight! Ryan Vs Gary IK-purge vs CK-purge First correct prediction of this exciting round 1 for the league. And, from what I’ve heard it was a pretty

Scores are in and pairings for round two are up, let’s check in on the progress. Round 1 Scores: Ben J vs Neil (Ultramarines Gladius v Ultramarines Librarius + Reclamation) Prediction: Neil Winner: Ben Ben has provided his own report for this game:It was an utter blood bath!! With a good amount of invuns from Neil. Now back with yours truly, 2 points in it but it looks like the best of tenth worked to Bens favour to scrape the win!

AOS Blog Round 2
Round 1 is complete with a bumper Tuesday at HH with 4 games being knocked out this week. This means of course we can roll straight into Round 2, but what, I hear you ask, happened in those Round 1 games? Let me regale you! (We had a couple of drops mid round which mixed up games slightly, so some of my predictions will not apply entirely in those cases) Steve (Seraphon) vs Andy (SBGL) Prediction: Andy win Result: Steve win I underestimated Steve’s ability to sweat one out fo

40k League - 11th - Season 1 - Round 2 - Division 3
Round 1 of the mid league is in the bag, and I’m sure all of brains have melted in this never-ending bastarding heat, so I’ll to use small words. Dan (Death Guard / Purge) Vs Joe (Votann / Priority): I originally thought this game was going to be Purge into Purge as we didn’t know Joe’s disposition at the time of the predictions blog, but it turns out Joe picked Priority Assets, so it was nice to not play Meatgrinder for the 728th time. (And yes, I know I can’t complain a

40k League - 11th - Season 1 - Round 2 - Division 1
I would say there were no stompings in Round 1 but that would be based on 10th scoring - in 11th it feels like a 20 point difference is likely a tabling! Which maybe means there was some stompings... Results - Round 1 Max V Ross Prediction: Ross Winner: Ross Max having 500 points of Custodes move blocked by 5 Kroot Hounds and his post game immediate request for me to return some of his IA for Infiltrators sums it up quite nicely I think. I do think the 10th style Guard spam C

40k League - 11th - Season 1 - Round 2 - Division 4
Results: Mark vs Jamie (Nids vs Ultra) 80-20 I believe this was a bye to be played at a later date, so the boys in blue will get a chance for some nid killing at some point. Time shall tell! Matt vs Angelito (Guard vs Tau) Boy, I got this wrong. Guard got slapped and it appears the greater good was with the fish heads. Guess the emperor doesn't protect like he should. Maybe Tau are the ones to watch out for, big scoring and keeping the opponent pinned down. Leo Vs Dickie (EC

AoS Summer League Blog 1: So much fresh meat to consume
It’s summer, it’s hot as heck, and we’re in the realm of fire for the new GHB so we are really on brand at the start of a new league! Some returning faces return to try to dislodge Alden once more, along with a mega six new players. We bid you all welcome, and wish you well in your endeavours (except when you’re playing me). Format remains much the same, though this time we’re going to do 5 games so it has more of a GT format, then a break before going again for the winter le

We’ve got some spicy match ups for the first round of the league and in league 2 we’ve got a reputation to keep of nearly being good at the game. What will the first look at the lists show us? What tactical decisions have lead to the final lists? Oh what’s that?! Oh they’ve basically all gone purge… At least we have one man willing to do his part for the reputation of League 2 and choose a disposition that may require even two brain cells!

We are back boys and we have outsourced labour to a selection of Henchmen's finest chimps. And by finest I mean they were given a crash course in word processing and a very limited understanding of the written word. But here at Hobby Henchmen we work with what we have and that means Jack, Leo, Nick and Dan will be writing your predictions and results blogs for their respective Divisions while I do this one. So what is the landscape in Division 1? We have yours truly on a com

40k League - 11th - Season 1 - Round 1 - Division 5
Well buckle up butter cup it’s the Hobby Henchmen League 5 Round 1 predictions. To an outside observer this league has the worst players and therefore should have the most normal people in it. For that to be true the observer would need to be looking through a telescope, from the moon, having been awake for the last 72 hours and drank a litre of vodka. A new edition and league format was always going to bring challenges, what Sam didn’t expect was that two of these would invo

Please feel free to send any feedback you might have or ideas for the next one which will be starting in July with the new GHB.

HH AoS Winter League Blog 6 - The Season Finale
he AoS league has been full of twists and turns, and with only a single round to go, it’s anyone’s game. By which I mean 2nd and 3rd are both up for grabs; I don’t think it’s mathematically possible for Alden to be knocked off top spot in the final round. Talk has already started about the next league, and which armies people will be bringing. Excitement seems to be at an all-time high, but this may just be at the prospect of Jake being seen in person! From the future to the

The 40k Blog Returns
We have some fresh faces and some old hands playing the league these days and after a season's break I have decided it it time to return with all my AI slop imaging. Bask in my glory. As I am sure many of you know the format has changed slightly and we have four separate "divisions" that all have promotion and relegation at the end of the season as well as an overall Champion. The title of Hobbiest Henchmen went to Adam last season, HH league virgin. Me giving up my shot at t

The AoS league has reached terminal velocity with 4 rounds completed and only 2 left to scramble for that coveted 2nd and 3rd place behind Alden’s pointy ears. Per tradition to this point, I will recap round 4 ahead of predictions for round 5. As one of our pairs (who shall remain nameless) has chosen to play their match at the first possible opportunity, the recaps are gonna be one sentence so I have enough time to scramble together some predictions before their game.

Much like the January rain, AoS at Hobby Henchmen is coming in hard and from a south-easterly angle, the winds of which have taken us to the end of Round 3. Before we peek into my crystal ball for Round 4 predictions, let's have a quick sweep around the results from episode 3: Callum (SoBs) vs Alden (Lumineth Nonsense) Prediction: Alden to win Result: Alden takes the win Alden changed up his list, but the result remains the same (in less than an hour, no less).
