…Or in this case, Motivation improves. No more excuses!
I joined up in the Bull City Wargaming Clutterbusters Challenge,
and for those that don’t know about BCW, it is the best podcast out of the
state of NC. They have proposed a way to
help de-clutter those boxes of miniatures we have lying around taking up
valuable space for even more miniatures.
The rules are as follows:
Starting March 1st and going to Sept. 1st,
the object is to assemble and paint as much as possible. I am going to use this to help motivate
myself to get these damn Daemons finished before the Grail Quest GT in Durham,
NC this summer.
Acquire = Infantry -1 pt, Monstrous Cav -2 pts, &
Vehicles/Chariots/Monsters -8 pts.
Build = Infantry 0.25 pt, Monstrous Cav 1 pt, &
Vehicles/Chariots/Monsters 2 pts.
Finished Painting = Infantry 1 pt, Monstrous Cav 2 pts,
& Vehicles/Chariots/Monsters 8 pts.

Now I got a little surprise when I asked my good friend Rufus if he had a Keeper of Secrets lying around he wanted to sell. I did not want to go buy one since I know a new one will be released in the next few months. You see, Rufus is a model collector at heart, he has a case of "collectoritis" worse than most of us. One day he might finish the 5 armies he is working on, but when he starts on one army he starts buying for 2 more. Instead he gave me this pile of models. I have plans for a lot of it. I am just glad I got this bundle right before signing up for this.
All metal, all from 6th/7th edition, if the competition started the 2 weeks ago I would be at -58 points.
1 - Keeper of Secrets - It is the bull headed one, which I like.
20 - Horrors - I have 30 plastic, but I might convert into furies.
10 - Daemonettes - I will sprinkle these in with the plastic models.
5 - Screamers, I have 5 so that will my total to 10
10 - Warhounds - Can never have too many, already have 10 of the plastic ones.
5 - Fleshounds - I have 5 already, I use 3 on my OK army as Sabretusks, and I also use them as nastier warhounds in my WoC army.
Don't worry, I am buying him lunch today. I think he deserves it.
