The Pledge for 2017

What I said I'd do, what I did and what I say I will do.

In 2016 I pledged that I would do the following:

1. Paint up the 28mm Death Blades models that I currently own. Purchase what bits I need to do this.
2. Paint up the 6mm Death Guard Models that I own. Including the supporting Titan Legion.
3. Purchase and paint some heavy vehicles for the 6mm Death Blades.
4. Paint up some Dark Future models, including purchasing some models on foot.
5. Finish rolling up and modelling my Nurgle Warbands for Realms of Chaos.
6. Find a like minded gaming group and play some games.
7. Keep going with the Old Lead Undead. Hopefully at a faster rate than 1 model per year.

And here is how I went...

The Pledge 2016

So at the start of last year I said:
"My pledge for 2015 is:

1. Complete repainting my Death Blades in both 40k and Epic.
2. Figure out what I am doing with my Epic Death Guard and get them done.
3. Finish painting one other army.
4. Commence painting my Old Lead Undead.
5. Roll up and model 40k and WH warbands from ROC:The Lost and the Damned.
6. Play at least one game of Epic, 40k, RoC and Warhammer (hopefully 3rd).
7. Spend no more than $300 on models, paint and other loot."

And lets see how I went...

The pledge...

2014 was a big year for me. I welcomed my daughter to the world, moved house more times than I care to remember, started a new job, and even painted some models. In fact, I painted the following:

• Epic Imperial Guard.

The Birth of Foulmaw Cavlolo

I have recently been mucking about with Realms of Chaos again, and decided to roll up a warband that was both characterful, and somehow linked a chaos warband to my 3rd edition undead army.

My undead army is based around the Nightmare Legion, which occupy the Tilean City State of Lambrusco. So a champion of Tilean origin seemed like a good place to start.

Initially I rolled up a basic human with no followers and no gifts. I also discovered that my random dice app wasn't random, so 3d10 always returned the same result the first time you used it after opening it.  Based on this I decided to ignore the result of no followers, and rolled up two groups, with one ability each.  But first I downloaded a decent dice app! And then I discovered this blog that justified what I was thinking of doing...
