Its that time again - Squaduary Event 2026 - Intercessor Squad from First Strike

My calendar year has two hobby community highlights I partake in, October "Dreadtober" and February's "Squaduary" - I missed the previous couple of February's as work trips to Antarctica during the Austral Summer will tend to put hobby plans to the back-burner but its February once again so it's time I grabbed something that has been sitting around on the painting desk for all too long and got it finished! 

Squaduary was run by Stepping Between Games blog, Thousand Eyes used to plow through the interwebz and Instagram for the Squaduary pledges and pooled them together. This has now fallen by the wayside but I may have gone and continued my hobby now-tradition last year even if officially there wasn't one, and a few of the community continued too. The blogging community has shrunken over the years, but a few participants are still holding the torch against the dying of the light (imho IG, FB are soulless in comparison to a blog with the author's thoughts and colour scheme etc... but I am old. I do have IG @siph_horridus where I cross post Blog stuff).

In 2023 it was a Squad of Primaris Reivers from First Strike

In 2022 it was a Squad of Bikers

In 2020 it was a Devastator Squad with Heavy Bolters

In 2019, I completed a Vanguard Squad of Skitarii for my growing AdMech army.

In 2018 it was a Squad of RTB01 Beakie Marines.

And in 2017 it was the first squad of RTB01 Beakie Marines.

So, this year is a long overdue squad of push-fit Intercessor Primaris Marines from First Strike like the 2023 pledge of Reivers from the same boxset.

As the start of the month passes, this is where they are. I have started using bits from the remaining left over Reiver to make the 5th Intercessor different from the Auspex holding one, he has a Reiver Close Combat Knife forearm and an empty scabbard to put it in, cut from the Reiver kit.

Wish me luck and join in if you want! My initial progress may be slow as I have a Titan Walk to prepare for at Beachhead on the 7-8th Feb! 

Cheers, Siph
