Tale of X gamers - Preliminary Discussion & Sign-up thread

[LordXander]

I'm in as well, I'll decide how big I want my army when I get the new book in about a week or so. It'll be at least 1500+

Updated first post with new participants and rules for the thread.

Stupid question - what does WIP stand for?

 

[Kodamas]

WIP = Work in Progress.


I will be making a 2000pts force this year so I am happy to join up with this.

It gives me 22 days to find a really good dark/ethnic skin tone.

WIP stands for work in progress. If everyone posted regular progress pictures of their work, the thread would snowball in size and make it more difficult to keep track of.

I would agree that it would be a far better idea to do so, if you wish, in your own separate thread.

 

[Cristov von Carstein]

I am unfortuneatly going to have to reduce my army to 1.5k due to my recent look in on prices and the like. As it stands i cannot afford it at all.

 

[lord marcus]

could i be in? but i want to do skaven, as i have little money for vc right now, but i'll get vc if i have to.

 

[Aeschere]

Although this idea is great I'm afraid I cannot join. Right now I have an unpainted skaven and dwarf army, and although I am starting a VC army as well I cannot promise that I will only paint VC. Besides that, I do not have enough time to commit myself to painting a certain amount of points each month. University is a B*tch.

Good luck to the people who are participating though.

You can paint any army you want, and It's probably gonna be an army, so you can pledge 500pts if you want to

 

[Aeschere]

Hmm, might be an idea. And I have till halloween? Ok count me in. I pledge to buy, assemble and paint:

2 units of x zombies
2 units of 15 skeletons
2 Vampires
2 Necromancers

That should do it for now.

There's still 2 and a half weeks of signup, so why close it?

 

[Belladamma Voltaire]

I was under the impression it began in March...

The 24th is when the pledges are made in detail on the thread proper

 

[lord marcus]

ok, i'll join with vamps, i can't promise much for 500 pts, but i'll do what i can.

 

[Bug16]

Stupid question; does this mean that the monthly 200pt painting blog is dead? I do feel like I'm the only person still plodding away on that one!

 

[Balvine]

If you still take participants I'm in. I pledge 2000pts of Counts by the end of the year that contains:

Lord (Gravedigger of Salauel model)
Three heroes (Vlad model, winged vampire model and necro)
2 carts
2x15 skellies
15 ghouls
15 Grave Guards
10 Dire Wolves
Vargulf

If I'm too late I'll have to start my own thread

If you can put WIPs on it then it won't die, there'll be barely any allowed on this

I'll attempt to post more pictures on that thread.

Being new to the VC's in general i would love to join this blog. I endeavor to have a full tournament 2000 point army. This hopefully will be used at Gamesday. However as i have a LARGE amount of other armies i would like to post pics of them as well.
Is this okay?
