any chance a what we are woking on list will be posted for the start of 2014? Would be useful to help my suggestions for any thing new - for example, plan to do some Japanese and Italian WW2 next year but what is already in the pipeline to expand the ranges? Also alwasy nice to see what might tempt me off the styriaght and narrow with new ranges!

The Plan for 2014



Good day my fellow gamers. Following the examples given I shall post not only my own plans for 2014 but also encourage you to do the same.

My own plan consists of completing some miniature and research projects. Currently I am working on a book how Sealion could , realistically, have been a success but I know you are more interested in what is on the painting table.



For 2014 I want to do the following:



Finish my Dreadball Team (Robots) and get a second team so I can play solo.

I want to get my load of Hypaspists, a Myrmidon and the Comnmand models so I can declare my Neo Isks finished for now.

More CLAUs for the coming release of CTA 2.

Finish a new Triad Strike Team.

Back the AoT Kickstarter.

Finish my two MERCS factions (Keizai Waza and Kem'VAr).

Finish my Aliens and play some Aliens vs Colonial Marines.

Write my own rulesets.

Finish some more Spaceships for my Space Battles ruleset (see above).

Release a fanmade expansion for Urban War.





So what are you planning for the coming year?

This coming year will see me finish my Burmese (they may be before the end of the year, actually), and doing Successors, Romans, and Carthaginians (lead mountain already), and later on Assyrians and Saitic Egyptians.
And I want to become vaguely competent at Burmese chess, if that counts.

Well I hope to get my 6mm HC army finished

I am finally going to get going on some fantasy from what Luddite has said I like the sound of his rules

Also going to get Dux up and running properly but I am in negotiations with other players to decide on scale

A French WW2 army also appeals..might get a German one to, but as I have never played the Germans in any WW2 game I am not sure about this
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Duke Speedy of Leighton

Hungarian company for Flames of War, more Falklands and Franco- Prussian units in 10mm. Hoping to get my 1/3000 ships done too.
Then more Later Romans.
After that, no idea... So far out the loop at the moment I have no idea what the current trends are at the club.

Other than adding to my WW2 armies I really want to get on and do the excellent ACW figures I picked up at the Birthday Bash

Finish off my 1940 British.

1941 Russians

Find something to be Chinese/North Korean infantry 1950 for the Korean War

Finish off & rebase the ACW

1944 British & Germans for the

Then I seem to have found myself buying ancients!

I still haven't painted the Dark Age armies I bought myself as a birthday present - may wait for the Byzantines.

Fantasy/SF/TV involving Predators, Vampires, Dinosaurs, Superheroes, etc, etc

I know if the Pendraken Napoleonic Brits come out there may be a mammoth purchasing splurge there

Then in February ...

Hmmm, initial thoughts are:

- Get more games in; at least once a month.
- Don't buy any more rulesets. This was also my plan at the start of the year but bought CoC, IHMN, Black Powder (again) and Dux Bellorum, although the latter may have been last year :-\.
- Finish off my WWII Brits and Fallschirmjager.
- Paint up more AFVs for use with my AVBCW battlegroups.
- Start a German battlegroup for BKCII (and finish it of course!).

That's enough to be getting on with :D.

First half of the year~???

paint up all the Dropzone Commander stuff that Santas bringing
paint up the FoW Starter Set
paint up about 300 10mm Saxons
buy some Romano-Brits to fight them
paint 2 new infantry brigades for my ACW

should be enough to be getting on with

petercooman

I'll want to be doing this:

- finish the btirish para's for bkcII
-finish my skirmish models for USE ME WWII (british regulars and paras and germansà
- paint my acw models
-paint mu 2mm napoleonic armies
- 1/900 planes for war at sea

Still doubting:

- survival horror using the new Pendraken zombies
-battle of hastings (need to research more)
- buying 2 forces for basic  impetous
- wings of war/sails of glory

Start and finish 10mm d-day British Infantry and support (need landing craft) then the Germans defending the beach
Build Sword beach and then take it to a few shows.
Was toying with WW1 (being the 100th Anniversary of the start of WW1 but decided on the 70th Anniversary of D-Day. Looking to do this for the Royal British Legion.
