  Well done that man

Given the progress you make when you have a list another list seems a good idea

will pm you

Given the fluff on them, surely that's a normal army with one stand of Grey Knights - and after you win the rest of the army is executed, if there's any left

[Womble67]

Now they look good

Take care

[paulr]

Well done, that man

Time for a new list

[petercooman]

Have been working on a new list for nr 10 for some time now.

looking at my original post in my 'brainstorming' post i had this list of things:



"at the time of writing i have a VERY BIG AMOUNT of forces in various states of completion. These are the ones not finished:

1) deadzone orcs warband
2) deadzone plague zombies mob
3) pirates
4) privateers
5) British forces to battle the pirates
6) epic orcs
7) epic space marines
8 ) warhammer fantasy dwarf army
9) warhammer fantasy orcs and goblins
10) warhammer fantasy undead
11) LOTR goblins
12) LOTR numenor
13) LOTR high elves
14) 40k imperial guard
15) 40k dark angels (dark vengeance starter set)
16) 40k chaos (dark vengeance starter set)
17) mice and mystics/reaper mouselings
18) D&D legend of drizzt game
19) D&D temple of elemental evil game
20) D&D tomb of annihilation game
21) the great war boardgame (germans + british, one entry because they belong togheter)
22) bolt action USMC
23) bolt action IJA
24) bolt action germans
25) bolt action US airborne
26) pendraken zombies"

Now removing the stuff that is finished (or soon will be), and adding new arrivals, i get the following list:

1) epic orcs
2)epic space marines
3)  warhammer fantasy dwarf army
4)warhammer fantasy orcs and goblins
5)  warhammer fantasy undead
6)  LOTR goblins
7) LOTR numenor
8 ) LOTR high elves
9)  40k imperial guard
10) 40k dark angels (dark vengeance starter set)
11) 40k chaos (dark vengeance starter set)
12) mice and mystics/reaper mouselings
13)D&D legend of drizzt game
14) D&D temple of elemental evil game
15)D&D tomb of annihilation game
16) the great war boardgame (germans + british, one entry because they belong togheter)
17)pendraken zombies
18) terminator genesys terminators
19)terminator genesys resistance
20) napoleonic French
21)napoleonic British/Hanoverians
22)Pendraken ACW zouaves


So as you can see, after the painting i did, i should be at 17 forces unfinished, but with all my buying stuff, i'm already back to 22  

So i best pick a 10th force to finish, so i can get cracking on the rest!

In general, for my 10th "unknown" entry in my list i narrowed my choices down to:


- terminator genesys terminators and resistance (some 50-60 models) this gives me two forces!

- one of three of the unpainted board games in the d&d adventure system line (every one about 40-50 models each)

- 25 mm LOTR goblins of moria (between 50-100 and some trolls)

- 25mm LOTR warriors of the last alliance ,elves +men of numenor (about 50-70 i think) again listed as separate forces in my above list

- pendraken zombies

-paint the forces of the dark vengeance starter set (i think about 50 models) again 2 forces in the list

- get my freak on and paint about 400 28 mm napoleonic infantry, cavalry and artillery! (ain't gonna happen this year!!)


Off course, i initally talked about halving the list this year to get to 13 unfinished forces. so if i want to reach that number this year i have quite a bit to do!

Reaper mouldings!

[petercooman]

Reaper mouldings!

Yes the mouselings. I keep pushing them back. I have painted everything for the first mice and mystics game, and as long as i haven't passed that one, i feel no pressing need to paint the stuff from the expansions. I just work faster under pressure!

Look on the bright side, your new list is shorter than your old list

[petercooman]

Look on the bright side, your new list is shorter than your old list

Yes!

But, crisis wargames show is in november, so i can still hop over to a new record!
