Epic Resolution:
Finish Epic: Xenos. It's a short list, but I reckon it will be easier to finish.

Real Life Resolution:
Go shooting a minimum of once per month. My shotgun is bored.

Gaming resolution:- Continue to sell the surplus...
Epic resolution:- Get the Vanaheim to the table...
Life resolution:- Get fitter...

So one out of 3 will be a win :)

I found it Meph! Here's what I'm hoping to do:

1) Finish my WM High Elves (Spears, Cav, Command, Dragon and Eagles left)
2) Finish my EA Space Marines (Reaver, Marauders and THawks left)
3) Build my Squats
4) Playtest the nid list and squat lists a bunch
5) Either finish my Necrons or Nids, or start painting something else

I'm going to keep it simple this year:

1. Start painting any army, two would be better
2. Work on terrain
3. Continue painting Knights and possibly Squats

Complete 1k of Early Imperial Romans for WMA.
Get more playtesting done on Cadians.
At least get the miniatures for another 1.5k of WM Skaven, while I still can. Related - make press mold of Rat Swarms. edit - Holy crap that's expensive.

2012 is going to be a busy year for me..... So, I will add mine resolutions here (I don't think that I have ever actually managed to hit one, so I have nothing to lose at this point!):

Life
- change job
- move house
- lose weight

Wargaming
- complete one 2000 point 40K army
- get regular wargaming in (not specific to any game, just a regular game of something)

I posted mine in the 2011 thread (probably just to make sure I won't find it again come December - less guilt is good for you).
Oh what the heck:
One resolution, simple and suited to my approach to modelling and wargaming.
Complete 50 models.
ANY 50 models, as long as they're done!
And I'm off to a good start - 4 down already: 2 WHFB Bloodletters, 1 WHFB Daemonette, 1 Epic Landraider (Angels of Fire).

With a prize.
Each player aims lose x kg, and if he does not manage at the end of each month he has to donate x kg of Epic models to someone on Tac Comms. I would consider volunteering to receive said amounts of models.

I dont normally do resolutions, but the last two years have been rather (In honour of Apoc's resolution) umm... Poor, and I'm finally back outta a big hole, so I've got just one:

Enjoy 2012. However possible.

Granted, I do want to get fit again so I can enjoy climbing more. And I have a list of 30 things to do before I'm over 30, but they're not resolutions as they're ongoing. And indeed, both of those are simple elements of my resolution, so thats it. I'll let you know in a year if I'm smiling - see, it comes with a simple pass / fail test too! :)

At my age, I think resolutions are transferred to the bucket list. A partial list includes:

1) Enjoy the two-blondes-on-a-waterbed ride
2) Go to the Mauna Kea observatory
