So, as you can see, the Land Raider arrived. She's a bit knocked around and worse for wear, but she's beautiful. The funny thing is that I have three Land Raiders already: a Mk2, a Crusader, and a scratch built one that emulates a Mk1 from before Mk2s were a thing. I rarely ever field them, but I find it well within the personality of my Chapter to have found a Mk1 and brought it back to life. Besides, Apocalypse exists for the guy like me who has four Land Raiders. :)
On a different note, I played a 1000 point game with a friend on New Year's Day. He hasn't played in forever. I haven't played in the new edition. The game took forever and we both screwed up rules, but we both had fun, even if it took far, FAR longer than it should have. Most things are basically the same, but so many things have been changed just enough the I'm not sure how they work. Our new goal is to start playing 500 point games, each one focusing on a different part of the rules so we can (re)learn them properly. The first one will be in a few days and will focus on movement rules. The next ones should be shooting, assault, and vehicles and then any specific things we're having trouble with. Hopefully, in a few months, we will be able to play a 1500 point game in an evening. And no better time than the present.
Here's to new entries in the new year!
