; 2018Year End Review

Hello Folks,

Finally getting around to doing the classic new years post. A couple of weeks late but that's ok. As how these things usually go here were the years goals:

1. Paint everything to run an Osgiliath game at Cangames.
2. Paint everything to run a the Fords of the River Isen battle at Cangames.
3. Paint a new By Fire and Sword army.
4. Paint enough stuff including terrain to play some 7TV.
5. Paint enough stuff to play a different Epic Army at Cold Wars.

I was a bit optimistic this year it seems. I never quite mdae my Lord of the Rings goals, as the plan transitioned into a Helms Deep game, but I did get everything we needed for that done so maybe we can call that a win. By Fire and Sword never happened, not 7TV but they are still on my list. Epic I did a few new stands to use a Battle Sisters army but not allot. So not great on goal keeping overall hah.

Ah Well here's a few shots of what DID get done!

Helms Deep Armies:

Some Nice Terrain:

Some Khorne Guys:

New Team Yankee Stuff:

Jovian Wars:

More Infinity:

Game of Thrones:

Pirates:

Ghosts:

Looks like more fantasy and sci-fi stuff than historical this year which is interesting. Maybe that will change for the next year who knows.

SO then plans for next year:

1. Paint everything some Newfoundland themed pirate or Avalon Peninsula at Cangames.
2. Paint a couple of small Warmaster armies.
3. Paint a couple of new Lord of the Rings armies.
4. Finish the Game of Thrones stuff

Last item is the pledge status, not so great this year, ended up a bit behind. Also a bit lower on the painting numbers. I think that is a bit about changing how things were counted. But seems like around 400 is about what can be done in a good year.

Pledge Status, 2018:

Bought: 406
Painted: 342
Total: -64

Historic Results:

2017: 441 Painted

2016: 484 Painted

2015: 216 Painted
2014: 140 Painted

Anyway hopefully everyone had a good year, on to the next now!

Thanks;

Mike
