Another unit of Skaven Slaves is almost complete...
(sorry for the poor camera phone shot)
Here is how we are looking for deadlines, as I try to finish up another unit of 20 Slaves on Sunday night:
12-29-09 Tale of 4 Gamers round 2 games (period 2 painting due)
01-10-10 St. Johns, MI 2250 WHFB Tournament (GLWL Rules)
01-17-10 GLWL Round 1 Start, Wayne Division (Pandemonium)
I want to have my complete 2250 point army finished for the Jan 10 Warhammer tourney. That means I have a bit of a grind to go in order to complete it all in time, but the holiday break should give me the time I need to complete everything. Luckily I enjoy painting infantry for some crazy reason, so it hasn't been too bad for me to almost finish a unit of 20 in one night when I can find the time.
An on-the-battlefield progress report, I did excellently this weekend in 2 games at the local GW Hobby Center. I played 2250 to try and get a better feel for my list and the rules, and tabled / massacred an Orc and Goblin army, and then a Wood Elf army. It's the experience I need to hope to be competitive in the tournament/league starting in January. I'm interested to see how it does when I run into the Daemon buzzsaw I am scheduled to face on Tuesday.
First turn getting off the Dreaded Thirteenth Spell on a unit of Eternal Guard always helps too.
; )
Good luck!

I ended up with a Massacre vs Warriors of Chaos and a close Draw against the Daemons. The mono-Slaanesh list I fought was nasty with the leadership spell (3d6 chose the highest 2) that accounted for the deaths of my Hell Pit Abomination AND Doomwheel.
ReplyDeleteI should be taking the weekend off from playing to paint my Storm Vermin and Giant Rat units. I might even be able to start on some characters or the Hell Pit Abomination painting. Maybe.
