Chubbybob, I've heard legends about this - and it's incredible. How long did it take (gasp) to do all THAT?

I have about 5000pts of my Imperial fleet (all painted as well), and 2000pts, maybe more, of Chaos (unpainted as yet)...

Hi Bob
Nice to see you on Epic Comms.
I think you must definitely qualify for a 'primarchload' of BFG!
Cheers
James

What qualifies as a primarchload again? Was it 20,000 points?
If so then I just fall short with 6,000 points Chaos, 6,000 points of Imperial Navy, 4,000 points SM and 2,000 points Eldar.
Little of it is painted though...
Cheers
James

Well , I have been building and converting imperial ships almost since the month that BFG was first released. (can't remember how long that is) I would guess that from start to finish I can spend an average of 8-10 hours on a ship including painting and converting. Scratchbuilds anything upto 40 hours. As to points , I have no idea how much as I am a solo gamer and play a WYSIWYG campaign so points are irrelevant to me. However I do have 21 Lunars now so that alone is 4000 points . At a rough guess I suppose the fleet is around 30,000 points ?but it may be quite a bit more. Not sure!! This does of course only include the fully painted stuff. The spare box has a large amount of gear as well
BTW I also have disgracefully large amounts of 6mm scifi (epic etc.) land forces to support the fleets.

I love your Epic stuff as well Bob. -I must admit that I've stolen quite a few of your ideas to use myself like the Destroyer Tank Hunter. Very cool and original. 
Cheers!

Hehe, Only a few minor engagements to learn the rules. I've never tried out all the ships at once.
Then again I'm still more of a painter/collector than a die hard gamer so I don't expect to average more than a single game a month at the most.
The main attraction has allways been the TO&E and to actually to build the stuff so that it looked good. The gaming part has allways been secondary (but still lots of fun!)
Cheers!

(for some strange reason SG decided to make the Tau crusier models massive and cost twice as much as all the other metal cruisers 
)
