crimsondave Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I just finished my Black Legion last weekend with my possessed. I finished the last ten cultists afterwards and am finishing up felgor ravenors to go with BL and my Iron Warriors. My Iron Warriors were done but I sold off my MK3&4 marines and bought enough new MK3s to do 30 new MK 3 CSMs and 10 Chosen (breaches) and 10 Havocs. This will be next. After that I will finally start my Space Marines. I’ve got 3 starter sets worth (Dark Imperium, Indomitus, and Leviathan) and several different combat patrols. I plan to do Dark Angels and Crimson Fists. If I have too many I’ll do a small Deathwatch force to go with my AM/Inquisition. Don’t see that happening this year though.

Opprobrium Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I'm going all in on Kroot for a 2nd army. I had bought the Kill Team a while back but never anticipated these new releases. I want to give them really nice freshwater resin pour bases, anyone know good tutorials? Bouargh and Interrogator Stobz 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StraightSilver Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I plan to have 3,000pts of Legions Imperialis (Ultramarines) painted by April this year (1,000pts almost complete) and 3,000pts of 30K (Ultramarines) painted by end of 2024......... I know that at least one of those things, but probably both, won't happen...... Bouargh and Interrogator Stobz 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spazmolytic Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I don't have a massive pile of shame but its bigger than I like so hopefully I'll cut that down before adding to much. another 8 Warhounds for AT 1 Reaver for AT 1 Imperial Knight 40/30K 2 Warglaives 40k/30k 1 Deredeo 30K But need to add at least 1 Cerastus 40/30K & still sitting on the fence for LI, models look great just not sure on a commitment.

Oh, and the obligatory hunt for Mk VIII torsos and studded pauldrons without rims continues, along with deciding to buy a load of bolt rifle mags/scopes combos so I can give more of my guys' bolters big drum/box mags since they look cool. Long story short, I have very little self-control, especially when working night shifts.

Axineton Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 If all goes well I’m going to build the leviathan box marines and give them the successor treatment. Thinking of going silver as that’s easy and quick. Not going crazy though. Bouargh 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I've decided that I am going to buy the new HH book for the shattered legions and some auxila for allies then I am taking a very long break from the hobby. I'm not enjoying it anymore, I can't stand 10th and the general GW situation is just making getting stuff so frustrating even from FLGS. It's opening my eyes to a lot of stuff I didn't want to admit to myself as being true and I need to get away from it all I think.

My motivation got crushed, cratered, and nuked from orbit after 9th edition led into the abomination that was the 10th edition launch and Votann Index. However, just because the wool is gone, it does not have to be the end of hobbying. If you want to keep using your minis for wargaming, might I suggest some model-agnostic rules? Or hell, even some older editions of 40k. Turns out there are a heck of a lot of people out there just kinda having fun without letting James' clown farm decide how they spend their free time.

Helias_Tancred Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 (edited) Well ... with the way prices are going, having one 40k army and one AoS army is looking like my endgame scenario with the hobby. I mean $70 for the new scouts box? lol. It's becoming a decision made out of principle, and money in vs value out. Err they are $65 my mistake, but my feelings are the same.

Interrogator Stobz Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Lolz, I posted my plans for 2024 a few pages back, but now with the abomination which is the LI release I may rescind that plan and spend my money on beer for a while.

madlibrarian Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Well, I’ve got ten terminators, ten marines, forty cultists and two knights to get finished. Once they’re done, I think I’ll not be buying anything new for quite a while! Got enough lol. Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be saying that if I got them finished it would give me an excuse to buy more … This weekend I finished building all my T’au and resprayed my land raider for a repaint. Everything else 40K that was part of my unpainted pile I am going to sell, which basically amounts to a bunch of old marines. So in total for 40K I have left to paint: 5 pathfinders 5 drones 1 cadre fireblade 2 crisis battlesuits 1 grey knight with a psycannon 1 stormsurge Then I can get some more stuff :) madlibrarian 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still feels like 40k to me, but maybe James Workshop would disagree. roryokane 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helias_Tancred Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) 1. Right now I have a 5700 point Black Templar collection (built, based, and primed) to formally paint up. 2. I have an AoS Soulblight Gravelords (Vyrkos Vampires) 2800 point collection to finish building and prime. 3. I have several remaining pieces of fantasy themed terrain to prime and dry brush in order to allow me to host AoS games (I highly recommend Enders Toys and Battlefield in a Box terrain btw!) 4. I'm brand new to AoS so I have that learning curve ahead of me, and I'm yet to play my first game. But right now my priority is finishing a painting commission for a friend, and I'm a tad burnt out on dealing with AoS/Fantasy/Terrain stuff over the short term and miss my Black Templars and 40k in general! The former will never replace the latter for me when it comes to my gaming hobby. Edit: I'm pretty sure I want to do another space marine collection in addition to my Black Templar collection. My days of massive 9k+ collections are over. My Black Templars now sit at 6k and they are done. Going forward I still have tons of love for Blood Angels (my first 40k army), Dark Angels (owned/played), Crimson Fists (owned/played), and Raven Guard. If what Chapter Master Valrak discussed about future Blood Angel releases turns out to be true, I will probably do them again, probably no more than 4k or 5k with a focus on being thematic for them? I've sorta passed on doing Dark Angels again, I'm just not impressed with their new "refresh" or what it represents lore-wise for the chapter. A new primaris Pedro Kantor could also hook me (as well as the opportunity to kit-bash a primaris Captain Cortez!), and my love of Corax and the Raven Guard; their chapter outlook on warfare, and chapter culture, always has a hook in me as an Imperium/Marine fanboy.
