Battlefleet Gothic: Heresy Death Guard Fleet Reinforcements

A few parcels arrived from eBay for my new BFG fleet the other day (eBay now sadly being the only source of ships these days) I quickly set about painting them.

First up is a quartet of Cobra Class Destroyers. Cool little ships these.

Then I got 5 Cruisers (not sure on class - think they're the ones out of the starter set) I've got 2 of these painted now.

Finally its the Big Daddy! The Retribution Class Battleship! She's a beast!

This is the fleet so far. I'm very happy that I painted them a scheme to match the Death Guard.

Now  that I have a sizeable fleet together, I just need to learn how to play the game!!

Death Guard in Spaceeeeeee!

Something a bit different today! Me and my buddies were talking 30K campaigns the other day (which we're hoping to run soon) when the conversation strayed to Battlefleet Gothic. We talked about how awesome it would be to resolve boarding actions with a Zone Mortalis game (which we're also looking to make a board for) The excitement quickly escalated and before you knew it, we were planing our fleets!

Now i've never played before, but i'm making my way through the rules. I also had a vague memory of some ships in my mountain of bits boxes. After a 30 minute rummage i came across these bad boys! I set about painting them up straight away.

Now i know these are 'Imperial' ships and not strictly speaking Death Guard, but i wanted them to look like they belonged to them, or were somehow associated. So the paint scheme is the same as my 30K army.

Now i don''t have much of an idea what these ships are (any help would be appreciated) but i think this one is a Destroyer/Escort:

I think that this one is a Cruiser:

I do know that THIS one is a Retribution Class Battleship! She's a beauty!

Once we all have our fleets assembled, we'll be using them in our 30K campaigns!
