So, a month to go until 2012, how have this year's resolutions been going? :D

Think im on 3/5 currently.

*Edit with actual resolution info:

Quote:
1) Paint/finish painting one epic army to a minimum of a 3k competitive list. Any army, just finish one, just one (probably world eaters) !
2) Put on weight.
3) Find something meaningful to do/ a job/ some sort of purpose in life after graduating with a pointless degree...
4) Concentrate on 6mm fantasy more, hopefully finish small beastman force and start work on undead.
5) Having played epic properly for the first time in 2010, play more in 2011


1) currently failed, got some world eaters done, but not to a useable army.
2) currently failed, but i am fitter than i was.

3) success! got funding for a second degree.
4) success! 6mm beastmen done in abundance, 6mm undead well underway.
5) success! a couple of games IRL and via vassal – not much but it still counts :D

Complete my Minervans to 5k.
Complete my Warmaster Skaven to 2k on the cheap. Likely Kallistra Ratmen where possible.
Complete a table's worth of urban/temperate terrain (6x4). Bonus = make a 6x4 table.
Start Dystopian Wars (FSA probably).
Play more Victory at Sea.


Minervans - check
WM Skaven - Nope, decided I didn't like Kallistra Ratmen enough to buy, and still put off by the GW prices. I bought a 3k Dark Elf army from a friend, though, so I've at least got something.
Terrain - I guess. A bit more cover that isn't buildings would be nice, but I can fill a table with Epic terrain.
Dystopian Wars - Nope.
VaS - For a few months. My main opponent has been busy with family health issues for several months now.

I'm slow. My goals for this year are this though:
Paint 6 epic 40k basilisks
Paint 6 Macharius
Paint 2x 40k Razorback turrets and base plates
Paint 1x 40k Techmarine
Acquire or Sculpt 9 Wraiths
Complete phase two of Cal's commission
Convert and paint three Ordinatus Minorus.

If I get through all that I guess I'll work on painting up two of the new style metal warlords and create some admech specific objectives. If I'm done with THAT I'll work on converting and painting the second of my AOBR marine dreadnoughts.


Lets see... I think that I hit everything on this list except the basilisks, admech objectives, and hte dreadnought. The basilisks never got started because I thought I was waiting for some manticores which I never ended up getting.

I can also add to the list, 9 mechs, 4 Tech Servitors, and a bunch of terrain.

I had one resolution.... ONE.... and I didn't even get past the first couple of months! Pretty pathetic, but also fairly normal results for me. ;D

A little hesitant yet here goes:

1. Paint up another 4000 points of World Eaters to almost have the army finished
2. Paint up a competitive 3000 points Emperor's Children Force
3. Paint a NAC Full Thrust Fleet
4. Review the Experimental/Development lists I am doing at the end of 2011
5. Don't waste my life arguing with people that have no comprehension of what the word 'compromise' means.


1. No - only 425 points short - maybe i can still do it?
2. No
3. No
4. Yes!!
5. Yes!! Discussion is not arguement if i control my emotions. ;)

I'm going for ultra simple this year.

Sell some of the gaming surplus I'll never ever use.

I hate 40K so do I really need bits for 4 armies?


Well I've sold - My Malifaux crew, Trafalgar rules and fleet, Space Hulk, Some 40K Bits and half my Epic guard army.

Mission accomplished :)
