KR Customer for Life

I am now officially a KR Multicase customer for life. You might recall that last year at about this time I had a great experience with KR. The delivery person put my order in the garage and my wife backed over it with the truck. I mentioned it in passing to KR and they replaced the boxes even though the incident was no fault of their own. Also, at Adepticon, they were very attentive, approachable, and kind. Amazing service from people who really care about their customers.

This year I hemmed and hawed over my decisions as far as what foam to get. I loved KR's service, but I needed a full-height Heldrake foam. With KR, that meant a full $60+ purhcase since, no matter what foam you get, that's the price of a single regular card case full of "custom" foam. On another site, it would have only cost me $35 for a custom tray of the same size. I also am not a fan of pluck and I would have had to do a few pluck foam trays for some of my models.

In the end, I decided to go ahead and work out the order on the KR website and see if I could figure it out and get a good overall price. After measuring my models and referencing the tray print-outs, I actually came away with a great plan for most of my Daemon Orks and all of my Necrons for about $200 with free shipping. This is, overall, comprable to other companies. This combined with my experiences last year meant I was happy to pull the trigger and complete the order.

After reviewing my order, I realized that I'd made a mistake. I emailed Kath at their American division in Michigan and she got back to me immediately the next morning. She said that England had probably already filled out my order, but she'd send me the few pieces I'd screwed up on. Again, great service. She didn't have to do that.

Then, I got my original order last night and found that three of the troop foams were incorrect. I sent Kath a photo of the foam with my order slip to confirm it was incorrect. Again, Kath responded first thing this morning and said she would send me the proper foam today.

The customer appreciation displayed by KR time and again has sealed my loyalty as a customer. That kind of service is worth more than the pennies I could save, or convenience of custom cut foam I would get ordering from someone else.

Ordo Draconis Armies on Parade

As I finish up models that have been sitting in my queue, I've been doing army shots including them. Last week, I finished up the knight models I had lying around. The lore for Knight House Draco has advanced in the Era Indomitus. The house's pencheant for daemon fighting has caught the eye of the Ordo Malleus and they have been brought into the fold. Their worlds have been put under communications blackout and household forces sworn to the crusade against the Ruinous Powers. They are now known as the Ordo Draconis and even Greater Daemons tremble at the mere mention of their name. Tiamat Drogon Gojira Melificent Falcor Smaug Jabberwocky Jormungandr The Eye Stalkers

How Did it Come to This? 10,000 Points of Painted Orks

One can only make so many milestone posts before people eventually get soul-crushingly bored of them. However, I'm going to make an exception here because with my Vengeance Batteries, I've reached a total of 10,000 points painted with my Orks. These points include reasonable upgrades, but not ridiculous add-ons like Kill Kannons for the Battlewagons. Let's not be silly . Here's a video of the army. Unlike the one I did for 7,000, this does not include a running commentary of each unit. I simply cannot find the time to do that. However, at the end of the post, please find a complete army list. Please try to view in YouTube instead of this embed because I uploaded it at full resolution and it took me forever. You won't be disappointed! I started playing this game in 2010 when some friends and I suddenly realized that we finally had grown-up jobs and could actually afford it. I'd always danced around the idea of collecting Orks either for F

Newly-painted models of 2021 Hobby progress was largely successful in 2021 with a huge focus on repainting old Orks into the new scheme.

As usual, the Rogue Trader idea keeps percolating and collecting one kit at a time in its little, plastic container. Orks: 9x Killa Kans 3x Deffkoptas (also need to rebase
