Tale of an Epic Gamer - November 2015

My goal for November is to finish my Imperial Guard.

My goal for this army this month is to paint an Abhuman Company, finish off the Leman Russ Company that I previously started, and 2 squadrons of Sentinels.

I've already made good progress toward the goal this month and I'm confident that I can complete it.  I might even be able to get a few other items done if I make good use of my time.

LaserStorm - Army lists for my Epic 40K armies - Part 2

I have played a few games with my Eldar and Space Marine lists and found a couple of things that needed to be updated.

I also have been working on building lists for a few of the other races in the 40K universe.

I have created new PDFs for these army's and have posted them on Google Docs for anyone that is interested.  The links for the PDFs are below.

Eldar Army List updated 11-4-15

Space Marine Army List updated 11-4-15

Imperial Guard Army List updated 11-4-15

Tyranid Army List updated 11-4-15

These are just my thoughts and ideas on these armies.  I would love to hear your thoughts on these lists.

Also, if you find any errors in my calculations of points, please let me know and I will make corrections.

The next army that I plan to build stats for will be the Orks.

Tale of an Epic Gamer - October 2015 Goal Completed

Another month of painting is in the books.

I finished off my Tyranids for the year.  I would have liked to get a few more models finished, but I'm still happy with what I did get done.

I added 3 units of Tyranid Warriors, 3 units of Genestealers, and a Dominatrix.







Here is what I have painted this year on this project.

*Note:  These lists aren't optimal builds, just and idea of the size of force I can field given the models I have painted.

While not as many points as my Eldar force, This is a pretty decent sized force given that I only spent 3 months painting it.

I will be back to this army in the future and have plans to add lots more to the swarm.  More monstrous creatures are the current need, but more infantry will be added as well.

Overall, I think the army looks great and look forward to seeing these on a battlefield.
