Kill Team - Blooded vs. Vespid Stingwings

On the day of 28th February 2025 and Antoni Pastuović (Imperial Guard) played a game called GW - Warhammer 40.000. Read on to see how the battle ended!

Intro; Antoni Pastuović

This Friday, Luka and I had the opportunity to try out the third edition of the famous Warhammer skirmish game Kill Team, and along the way demonstrate the basics that have remained unchanged. Luka played a team of Vespid Stingwings, a highly mobile T'au unit, and I played the Blooded, a traitor squad that used to belong to the Astra Militarum (in my case they were named Glanton's Gang). The map, measuring 30x22 inches, was organized so that all terrain was outside of our deployment zones, which were 6 inches from the shorter edges. In the middle of the map, in a slight diagonal, 3 points of interest (objectives) are placed. All this resulted in a very symmetrical setup of operatives – all Vespids and the entire Blooded gang at the beginning of the game were mirrored hidden behind large pieces of terrain. All buildings with doors were 3 inches high, offering the operatives a Vantage point - the ability to keep one hit die as a success, and the well in the very center, 4 inches high, offers an even better Vantage point, where the operatives keep 2 dice.

Turn 1

Antoni Pastuović

Before the start of the game itself, we set up 2 barricades and everyone had to choose one of the three so-called Scouting options: Luka chose another piece of equipment, and I chose a free Strategic ploy, giving Luka the first initiative. At the beginning, all the operatives had a Conceal order, which means that it is almost impossible to select them as targets, but that is why they can neither shoot nor attack. Because of this, the first round was uneventful, i.e. it came down to positioning: Glanton's gang used Enforce actions and Commsman's addition of APL to get as close as possible to points of interest, and the Vespids used their flying ability to jump over any possible obstacles. The treacherous Sharpshooter and T'au Oversight each climb their respective structures and prepare to engage in the next round. My melta Gunner does the biggest lunge and runs straight between the 3 Vespids, hoping for the initiative.

Turn 2

Antoni Pastuović

The forces of Chaos don't care whose blood is spilled - the Blooded team gets tokens every time they kill an enemy operative for the first time in a round, or when they fall in battle close enough to an enemy (6 inches) to be considered token-worthy. These Blooded tokens are awarded to the operatives at the start of each round, granting them an automatic hit, and if there are 4 such operatives, one of them is under the divine gaze, granting him an automatic critical hit. I got the initiative, the melta missed. It doesn't matter: the Gunner falls immediately afterwards, giving me a token to award in the next round. The Sharpshooter lightly wounds the Vespid Drone at the far end of the map, which didn't result in a Blooded token, but the Traitor Enforcer from ground level orders him to shoot again, which manages to finish him off. At this point, the Blooded team has two points of interest in their control, all but the central one. At the very end of the round, the flying Vespid Warrior jumps to the highest point on the map (which gives him Vantage point bonuses), where all members of Glanton's gang are in his sight, ready to return fire in the third round.

Turn 3

Antoni Pastuović

Luka and his Vespids gain the initiative, which gives me an extra command point, which will be crucial for many re-rolls in the third round. At the beginning I see that I have exactly 4 tokens, so I decide that Traitor Thug will be under my god's eye this round (his last). The third round was the most fatal for me, shots from the bolt pistol, laspistol and lasgun do not take down the Vespid Warrior at the top of the map, who easily kills Glanton, the leader of my gang. Vespid Skyblast simultaneously litters the middle of the battlefield with Neutron Fallout, destroying any hope of the gang making a successful counterattack deeper into Vespid territory. Even when Traitor Ogryn ventured to do so, he was met by Vespid Longsting and his rail rifle, costing him his remaining 13 wounds. Luke's Neutron Fallout was so successful that I almost forgot to activate Enforcer and Thug on turn three, because subconsciously I didn't want the activation itself to take away their D3 wound. Thug rushes in to finish Ogyrn's job, and after killing Skyblast with one blow, the next closest Vespid returns the favor.

Turn 4

Antoni Pastuović

In the last lap, the situation is clear to me: I have to maintain the status quo. I must continue to control the points of interest, even if they all end up like Glanton. Sharpshooter gets a god's eye so that from his position he can bring order where he needs to. Traitor Corpseman stays away from the front lines and dispenses his doses to the wounded to keep them on the battlefield. In the last lap, Luka gets rid of the Enforcer and two others - it doesn't matter, they did their job. The last skirmish takes place at the first point, where two of the four operatives lose their lives and two are seriously wounded. Despite this latest battle, the point of interest remains under my control. The final score is 9:3 for the Blooded team. Although the kill rate was the same, what prevailed was the number of Blooded that could trade off each other to maintain control of points 1 and 2. I want to give my deepest thanks to Luka for a fun game and hours of navigating the new edition despite all the obstacles.

	With Contrast paints, I actually prefer Lahmian Medium to using Contrast Medium, it thins out the Contrast paints, dilutes them, instead of just making them more runny, and go more into the recesses, which the Contrast Medium does. I saw it on some youtubers painting tips back in the day, and have started to prefer it that way.

	S Contrast bojama, zapravo mi je draži Lahmian Medium nego Contrast Medium, on razrjeđuje Contrast boje, umjesto da ih samo čini tekućima i ulazi više u udubljenja, što Contrast Medium čini. Vidio sam to na nekim savjetima za farbanje na youtube-u svojedobno, isprobao to i zaključio da mi se tako više sviđa.

	My paint plan for the Court of the Seven-Headed Serpent Trench Crusade miniatures, was to use different, yet simple and effective painting techniques, for each unit. For the Hell Knights I wanted to give them a fully red scheme. So I made a paint-job consisting of several steps, but all easy, and achievable by mini-painters of any skill level, and with basically no brush control.

	  

	Step 1: I give the miniature a zenithal prime. First a pure black, then a pure white primer, from the side, and above.

	  

	Step 2: I use a large brush (as large as possible) and cover the entire mini in a mix of Slaughter Red speedpaint (any red contrast paint will do), some Lahmian Medium, and a few drops of flow improver. With the flow improver I don't have to worry about the paint drying before I manage to cover the entire mini. The amount of Lahmian Medium depends of the contrast paint, and its coverage. Basically I don't want it to completely cover up the zenithal prime.

	  

	Step 3: I cover the mini in a dark enamel wash, leave it for 15 minutes, and then use a makeup removal brush with a small amount of white spirit, to remove some of the wash.

	  

	Step 4: I drybrush the mini with Evil Sunz Scarlet, a red paint from Citadel, before I mix some Ice Yellow into the red and drybrush it again, with a lighter touch this time. I do this step a third time, with a red that has a bit too much Ice Yellow in it.

	  

	Step 5: So for the last step I cover this last drybrush highlight in an orange shade paint. I used Casandora Yellow.

	Moj plan bojanja za minijature Court of the Seven-Headed Serpent za Trench Crusade bio je koristiti različite, ali jednostavne i učinkovite tehnike slikanja za svaku jedinicu. Za Hell Knightse želio sam im dati potpuno crvenu shemu. Tako sam osmislio farbanje koje se sastoji od nekoliko koraka, ali svi su laki i izvodljivi za farbače bilo koje razine vještine, i u osnovi bez potrebe za prevelikom kontrolom kista.

	  

	Korak 1: Minijaturi dajem zenitalni primer. Prvo čisti crni, zatim čisto bijeli temeljni premaz, sa strane i odozgo.

	  

	Korak 2: Koristim veliki kist (što je veći moguće) i pokrivam cijeli mini u mješavinu Slaughter Red speedpaint (bilo koja crvena kontrastna boja će poslužiti), malo Lahmian Mediuma i nekoliko kapi sredstva za poboljšanje tečnosti (flow improver). S njim ne moram brinuti o sušenju boje prije nego što uspijem prekriti cijelu figuru. Količina Lahmian Mediuma ovisi o kontrastnoj boji i njenoj pokrivnosti. U biti ne želim da potpuno prekrije zenitalni sloj.

	  

	Korak 3: Figuru prekrivam tamnom emajl bojom, ostavljam 15 minuta, a zatim upotrijebim četkicu za uklanjanje šminke s malom količinom bijelog špirita kako bih uklonio dio washa.

	  

	Korak 4: Drybrush figure sa Evil Sunz Scarlet, prije nego što umiješam malo Ice Yellow u crvenu i ponovno ga drybrusham, ovaj put blaže. Ovaj korak radim treći put, s crvenom koja ima još više Ice Yellow u sebi.

	  

	Korak 5: Za zadnji korak prekrivam ovo posljednje drybrushom svjetlo narančastom bojom. Koristio sam Casandora Yellow.

The exhibition of miniatures and models "Agram 2025" was held this year from 20.2. to 09.03. 2025. The exhibition was set up on Wednesday 19.2. and was attended by a large number of members and friends of the Association who exhibited their works.

The opening of the Exhibition took place on Thursday, February 20, 2025, starting at 6:00 PM. The exhibition was organized on the occasion of our twenty-second birthday.

As always, the Exhibition presented a cross-section of the work of the Association, its members, participants of its courses and workshops, and members of the Miniature Painters Croatia FB group. In a large number of showcases, there were numerous miniatures for tabletop strategy games, board games, and an entire showcase was dedicated to award-winning exhibits from previous miniature competitions. Several showcases were dedicated to projects that the Association has been implementing for 22 years, such as the UMS „Agram“ Library and Reading Room, the Workshop for Making Spatial Models and the Miniature Painting Workshop, as well as new ones such as the Agram Group Build, the Agram Lego Section and the Back to Basics painting workshop for the youngest.

During the first weekend of the Exhibition, 22-23.02., we held the 19th annual international miniature painting competition Black Queen Hobby and Miniature Painting Competition!

As contestants arrived and registered for the competition, our hardworking staff photographed all the exhibits before sorting them into categories and carefully placing them in glass cases. The entries can be seen on our social networks!

By noon, all the display cases were full and the competition could officially begin.

WARGAMING DEMO GAMES

This year, organized by our friends from Slovenia from the Amulet D20 club, demonstrations of the Turnip28 tabletop strategy game were held. Over the course of both days, a handful of games were played on beautiful terrain!

SELLERS' COURT

During the weekend we hosted our sponsors with their sales stands: Swood.si and Carta Magica.

MINIATURE PAINTING WORKSHOPS

The ZZTK premises allow workshops to be held during the weekend in the cinema hall in the basement, so we also organized demonstration workshops during the weekend. The lecturers' work was recorded with a camera and projected onto the projection screen in the hall. Many thanks to our domestic and international lecturers: Ana Polanšćak (CRO), Vladimir Matić-Kuriljev (SRB), Luka Jare and Vane Dolenc (SLO), doc.dr.sc. Winton Afrić (CRO) and Marcello Rizza (I).

SPEED PAINTING COMPETITION

Thanks to our sponsor Hobby Chest, who provided us with a large donation of coloring materials from AK Interactive, we organized a speed painting competition on Sunday afternoon. Participants had 90 minutes to paint one miniature.

With that, we came to the very end of this wonderful weekend and all that was left was the awarding of prizes and recognition to the winners.

Over the next two weeks, our volunteers held open miniature painting workshops on weekdays from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Miniature painting workstations were set up where our visitors could paint miniatures we had prepared (or their own if they had brought them) using our materials and tools.

In parallel with the open miniature painting workshops, our volunteers also held demos of the tabletop strategy games Kill Team, Full Tilt and Frostgrave!

BACK TO BASICS MINIATURE PAINTING WORKSHOPS FOR YOUNG

On weekdays from 17:00 to 18:00, we held our new workshops for the youngest, in which our youngest participants painted their first miniatures.

AGRAM LEGO SECTION lecture: LEONARDO DA VINCI - THE INVENTOR

On Wednesday, February 26, 2025, as part of the activities of our Agram Lego Section, Mario Grgurev gave a lecture on the topic of Leonardo da Vinci - The Inventor. Admission to the lecture was free, and upon completion, a LEGO model of da Vinci's flying machine was made by members of the Lego section

During the second weekend of the Exhibition, 01.-02.03., we organized a MINIATURE PAINTING WORKSHOP - Frostgrave.

The workshop was held over two days (the entire weekend) and participants painted five different figures for the game Frostgrave, which can also be used for DND sessions. The focus of these lectures was on painting multiple miniatures at once, but the knowledge from the workshop is equally applicable to painting armies for board games and figure collections for pen&paper RPGs. The workshop presented paints and equipment, figure preparation, several miniature painting techniques from basic to advanced, and techniques and tricks for quickly and efficiently painting larger quantities of figures at once. Water-based acrylic paints were used as part of the workshop.

On Wednesday 05.03.2025. the annual session of the Assembly was held, where we elected the new old leadership and determined the guidelines for work in 2025.

On Sunday 09.03.2025. The exhibition was over, our exhibits safely stored, and the Gallery cleaned.

The most important part of every year when holding this Exhibition is the social aspect, the socializing of our members both among themselves and with our international friends who visit us! With these few photos from our joint gatherings, we greet you until next year!

OGLEDNE RADIONICE BOJANJA MINIJATURA

Prostor ZZTK omogućuje održavanje radionica tijekom vikenda u kino dvorani u podrumu, stoga smo tijekom vikenda organizirali i ogledne radionice. Rad predavača snimao se kamerom i projicirao na projekcijsko platno u dvorani. Veliko hvala našim domaćim i inozemnim predavačima: Ani Polanšćak (HR), Vladimiru Matić-Kuriljevu (SRB), Luki Jaretu i Vanetu Dolencu (SLO), doc.dr.sc. Wintonu Afriću (HR) i Marcellu Rizzi (I).

NATJECANJE U BRZOM BOJANJU MINIJATURA

. Zahvaljujući našem sponzoru Hobby Chest, koji nam je osigurao veliku donaciju materijala za bojanje od AK Interactive, organizirali smo natjecanje u brzom bojanju minijatura u nedjelju popodne. Sudionici su imali 90 minuta vremena da obojaju jednu minijaturu

S time smo došli do samoga kraja ovog predivnog vikenda i sve što je preostalo je bila podjela nagrada i priznanja pobjednicima.

Tijekom naredna dva tjedna, naši volonteri su radnim danima od 16:00 do 20:00, držali otvorene radionice bojanja minijatura. Postavljene su radne stanice za bojanje minijatura na kojoj su naši posjetitelji mogli bojati minijature koje smo priredili (ili svoje ukoliko su ih donijeli) koristeći naše materijale i alate.

Paralelno sa otvorenim radionicama bojanja minijatura, naši volonteri su držali i demo partije stolnih strateških igara Kill Team, Full Tilt i Frostgrave!

BACK TO BASICS RADIONICE ZA NAJMLAĐE

Radnim danima od 17:00 do 18:00 održavali smo naše nove radionice za najmlađe u kojima su naši najmlađi polaznici bojali svoje prve minijature.

AGRAM LEGO SEKCIJA predavanje: LEONARDO DA VINCI - IZUMITELJ

U srijedu 26.2.2025. u sklopu aktivnosti naše Agram Lego Sekcije, Mario Grgurev je održao predavanje na temu Leonarda da Vincija - Izumitelja. Ulaz na predavanje je bio besplatan, a po završetku su LEGO maketu da Vincijevog letećeg stroja izradili članovi Lego sekcije

Tijekom drugog vikenda Izložbe, 01.-02.03., organizirali smo RADIONICU BOJANJA MINIJATURA – Frostgrave.

Radionica se provodila kroz dva dana (cijeli vikend) i polaznici su bojali pet različitih figura za igru Frostgrave, a koje se mogu koristiti i za DND sessione. Fokus ovih predavanja bilo jebojenje više minijatura odjednom, no znanja s radionice jednako su primjenjiva i na bojenje vojski za boardgame igre te kolekcija figura za pen&paper rpg-ove. Na radionici su bile predstavljene boje i pribor, priprema figura, nekoliko tehnika bojenja minijatura od osnovnih do naprednijih, te tehnike i trikovi za brzo i efikasno bojenje većih količina figura odjednom. U sklopu radionice korištene su akrilne boje na bazi vode.

U srijedu 05.03.2025. održana je godišnja sjednica Skupštine na kojoj smo izabrali novo staro vodstvo te odredili smjernice rada u 2025..

U nedjelju 09.03.2025. Izložba je završena, naši eksponati sigurno spremljeni, a Galerija počišćena.

Najbitniji dio svake godine prilikom održavanja ove Izložbe je socijalni aspekt, druženje naših članova kako međusobno tako i sa našim međunarodnim prijateljima koji nas posjećuju! Uz ovih par fotografija sa zajedničkih druženja, pozdravljamo vas do sljedeće godine!

Our most important weekend of the year, the BQ competition, was packed with content and everyone could find something for themselves - with all the lectures and workshops, I was very happy that there was a chance to play and learn new games!

Thanks to our dear friends from Slovenia, Vane and Luka from Amulet d20, we had the opportunity to learn and try out a game that has recently experienced global success, and is the dream come true for many painters and kitbashers in the hobby: Turnip28!

The game itself is simple enough for beginners: two armies (regiments) clash on the table, led by 3 nobles - one Snob, who is the most important part of the army, and 2 Toffs, who are slightly weaker. Each noble brings units with him - the Snob brings two, while each Toff brings one unit to the table. In total, each army consists of 3 nobles and 4 units.

What a table looks like with the guys gathered around it

Like most tabletop strategy games, the game is played in rounds, and during them the players change the order of activations. The player who is first in line activates one of his units or nobles, makes a move, and then the other player takes over the order, until all the units on the game board are activated. Nobles are important because they are activated first, and they issue orders to their units: attack, march, shoot. If you don't have a noble, if he is killed or missing, then your units are activated only after all the nobles have been played, which can put you in an awkward position.

What my demo game looked like

For my first turnip game, I had the honor and fortune of playing with our own Anna from Gardens of Hecate - we both wanted to try the game and now we had the perfect opportunity to learn the basics of the rules with the mentorship of the Amulet guys.

We got our regiments, which were pretty similar - we had a Snob, 2 Toffs, a large infantry unit with rifles, a smaller infantry unit with melee weapons, and a scout unit with rifles. The biggest difference was that my last unit was a cannon, while Anna's was a large hand-to-hand monster known as a Lump. I think her pink Furby Lump with glowing eyes was probably the most memorable figure on the table (kudos to the guys from Amulet on the miniatures).

p>The party itself started with Ana's initiative, and from the beginning started to win strategic points on the table. My response to her conquest of the field was to resolutely fire everything I had into her ranks. As I watched her troops slowly but surely fall under my fire, I got lucky and my scouts managed to get one of her Toffs in front of the firing squad - which gave me a pretty big advantage at the start.

Her troops continued to advance towards my side of the table, including a rogue who came uncomfortably close to me - and I tried in vain to attack him with my infantry, who were just out of powder. After failing to even scratch him, they fled, leaving room for the artillery to finish their job - and that unit definitely deserved a promotion in this game!

We finished the game quickly, because we had other workshops starting, but we are both excited to play a few more games, and with some other Agram members we are thinking about putting together our regiments - the number of miniatures needed is not large, and the creative possibilities are quite large!

Btw, the guys from Amulet gave us a lecture about their association and the activities they are planning - this year they have prepared H.R.E.N. 28, a turnip28 tournament, so be sure to check out their activities and projects - they are close by and you can visit them if you find something interesting!

Just some of the miniatures that the Amulet team prepared for the demo game - sugar at the end: Furby Lump!

Naš najvažniji vikend godine, natjecanje Black Queen H&MPC 2025, bilo je krcato sadržajem i svatko je mogao pronaći nešto za sebe - uz sva predavanja i radionice, jako me razveselilo da je bilo prilike igrati i naučiti nove igre!

Zahvaljujući našim dragim prijateljima iz Slovenije, Vane i Luka iz Amulet d20, imali smo priliku naučiti i isprobati igru koja je nedavno doživjela globalni uspjeh, a predstavlja ostvarenje sna brojnih paintera i kitbashera u hobby: Turnip28!

Sama igra je dovoljno jednostavna za početnike: na stolu se sukobljavaju dvije vojske (regimente), koju predvode 3 plemića - jedan Snob, koji je najbitniji dio vojske, i 2 Toffa, koji su nešto slabiji. Svaki plemić sa sobom donosi jedinice - Snob donosi dvije, dok svaki Toff donosi po jednu jedinicu na stol. Ukupno se svaka vojska sastoji od 3 plemića i 4 jedinice.

Kako izgleda postavljeni stol s ekipom okupljenom oko njega

Poput većine stolno strateških igara, igra se na runde, te igrači tokom njih izmjenju redoslijed aktivacija. Igrač koji je prvi na redu aktivira jednu svoju jedinicu ili plemića, povuče potez, i onda drugi igrač prezume redoslijed, dok se ne aktiviraju sve jedinice na igraćoj ploči. Plemići su bitni jer se oni aktiviraju prvi, te oni izdaju naredbe svojim jedinicama: napadni, marširaj, pucaj. Ukoliko nemate plemića, ako je poginuo ili nestao, onda se vaše jedinice aktiviraju tek nakon što su odigrani svi plemići, što vas može postaviti u nezgodnu situaciju.

Kako je moja demo partija izgledala

Za svoju prvi partiju turnipa, imao sam čast i sreću igrati s našom Anom iz Gardens of Hecate - oboje smo htjeli probati igru te smo sada dobili savršenu priliku da usvojimo osnove pravila uz mentorstvo Amuletovaca.

Dobili smo svoje regimente, koje su bile poprilično slične - imali smo Snoba, 2 Toffa, veliku jedinicu pješaka s puškama, manju jedinicu pješaka s oružjem za blisku borbu, te jedinicu izviđača s puškama. Najveća razlika je bila u tome što je moja zadnja jedinica bila top, dok je Anina bila veliko čudovište za borbu prsa o prsa, poznatija kao Lump. Mislim da je njen roza furby Lump sa svijetlećim očima bila vjerojatno najupečatljivija figura na stolu (svaka čast dečkima iz Amuleta na minijaturi).

Sama partija je krenula s Aninom inicijativom, i od početka je krenula osvajati strateške točke na stolu, Moj odgovor na njeno osvajanje terena je bilo odlučno ispaljivanje svega što imam u njene redove. Dok sam gledao kako njene trupe polako ali sigurno padaju pod mojih pucanjem, posrećilo mi se pa su moji izviđači uspjeli dovesti jednog od njenih Toffova pred streljački vod - što mi je u startu dalo dosta veliku prednost.

Njene trupe su dalje napredovale prema mojoj strani stola, uključujući lumpa koji mi je došao neugodno blizu - te sam ga uzaludno pokušao napasti sa svojim pješacima koji su taman ostali bez baruta. Nakon što ga nisu uspjeli ni ogrebati, pobjegli su i ostavili prostora da artiljerija dovrši njihov posao - a ta jedinica je definitivno zaslužila promaknuće u ovoj partiji!

Ubrzo smo završili igru, jer su nam krenula druge radionice, no oboje smo uzbuđeni odigrati još koju partiju, te uz još neke članove Agrama razmišljamo o slaganju svojih regimenti - broj potrebnih minijatura nije velik, a kreativne mogućnosti su poprilično velike!

Btw, dečki iz Amuleta su nam držali predavanje o svojoj udruzi i aktivnostima koje planiraju - ove godine su pripremili H.R.E.N. 28, turnip28 turnir, te svakako bacite oko na njihove aktivnosti i projekte - blizu su i možete ih posjetiti ako nađete nešto zanimljivo!

Samo neke od minijatura koje su Amuletovci pripremili za demo partije - šećer na kraju: Furby Lump!

	U srijedu 26.2. u sklopu naše Izložbe minijatura i maketa Agram 2025, naša Agram Lego Sekcija je odradila svoj drugi projekt. Nakon Hogwartsa u 2024., prvi projekt u 2025. bio je Leonardov leteći stroj. 

	

	Kao što je već tradicija kod naše Lego Sekcije, prije izgradnje modela, valjalo se malo educirati o temi. Ovoga puta naš Mario Grgurev održao je predavanje o Leonardu da Vinciju kao izumitelju sa posebnim osvrtom na leteće strojeve.

	

	Ulaz na predavanje bio je besplatan, a prijave nisu bile potrebne!

	

	

	

	Izrada makete je rezervirana za članove Agram Lego Sekcije. 

	

	

	Ukoliko se želite uključiti u sljedeće projekte, javite se za više informacija na ums.agram@gmail.com .

	

	Sljedeći projekt bit će u travnju, a tema će biti Orient Express. Očekuju vas predavanja o parnim strojevima, parnim lokomotivama te o povijesti Orient Expressa, kao i o Orient Expressu u pop kulturi.

	

	Vidimo se!"
