Legion of Everblight - Progress Report #1

Last time around I dipped my toes into the shallow end of a much larger conversation - that being that I have started up HoMachine again.  Since then, I've managed to get a few more games in and I now have more than enough experience to draw any number of serious and ground breaking conclusions about how the MkII rules function as a game.  I will also be proclaiming myself a master of this game followed by a cordial invitation for you all to suck it.

So I jumped into some more Space Wolves in disguise:
