All the humans are dead

By humans I mean Blood Angels, and by dead I mean, sold them on eBay.  Since my hobby time is at an all time low due to work and my playing time is even lower it seemed silly to have so many plastic men laying around.  As I've stated numerous times before I just have more fun playing Necrons.  Maybe because they're evil, maybe because they are just different from the other armies, or maybe because you can do crazy shit with them.  Either way I've completely embraced the terminator/cylon/matrix/egyptian inspired robots full time.  To that end I am going to try and commit to completely finishing them by November (it will be two years since I started collecting them at that point).  I've got a massive amount of them completely painted, however I need to do all of my tomb blades, spyders, ghost ark, 10 more immortals, 5 more death marks, and 5 lycheguard.  I don't think I will purchase anything else...the army is pretty complete.  In theory this should not be a difficult task to finish in 9 months, however if the last 6 are any indication I'm not sure I'll be able to do it.


Since my severe nerd isolation began a few months ago I have done a relatively good job at keeping up with the latest happenings.  I've got the new Chaos and Dark Angels codexexesss and have pretty much read the chaos one, I'm lagging on the DA one...I find them a bit dull.  We get it, you've got baggage and you like terminators and bikes.  I haven't gotten into the rules so for all I know they are the poops meow.

I've also slowly been reading the Forge World Horus Heresy book and damn, its fucking cool.  The book itself is like $120 but when compared to the new $50 codex it seems like a steal.  I would highly recommend it to 40k nerds.  Although the models associated with it are very, very tempting I just don't have the money or more importantly the time needed for more non-robot based dudes.  

I'm hoping to finish assembling everything I want to paint by November soon so I can put up some picks of my entire Necron force.  It will also give me a chance to show off what I need to paint and my game board which I finished months ago but never actually took pics of.

NoooooOOOooooKhhhhhaaaaannnnnnnnoooooOOOooo!

Did you keep any of that stuff that you hadn't painted yet? You know, so I can pick off of your corpse for my Lamentors or my pre-Hersey Emperor's Children.

Oh, I was telling Adam that I will be having a 50/50 chance of having Sundays free for the coming months as Hans had a few more sundays added into his work.

I hope you got good money for those Blangels on eBay. I'm going to be selling my Warmachine Khador stuff, and that shit has terrible resale.

We need to play again, soon. Even if it doesn't work with other people's schedules or if it's last minute. I'll play against your jerkbots some Sunday soon, if you're interested.

I tell ya, I have a 50-50 shot of making any given Sunday right now. My plans of running a small D&D game seem to be going up in smoke as we speak.
