CPR!!!

I get back to the U.S. in about 2 days...god I cannot wait.

Hahaha, I'll finally be around the same timezone as Ace!

Btw this means I will start posting up batreps, just need to check out my local gamestore and set up a game,    although I half expect o fall asleep during a game. Damn Jetlag!

I'm hoping I can start posting a lot more now too with some interesting topics. (such as painting articles, tactics, batreps and the most epic game ever...you'll hear about that one later) but we'll see.

In other news, I received my Imperial Fist Captain from All things 40k last week. I just have to say:

HOLY CRAP!!!!

Pics won't do it justice.

See you all next week,
Ninjaman

Now you see it, now you don't.

(o.k.-this post has about no magic related stuff, so if your in it for the tricks, sorry. :p)

I'm just trying to figure out something- Why I have a tendency to change armies at the snap of a finger. I know really its that impulse to buy the coolest model around, or just get some models for the fun of it, but almost 100% of the time, i end up attempting to collect an army of said models.

I have an excuse in the form of vanilla marines, as they've been my "best and brightest," (and coolset) but im absolutely stunned at how much I spend on armies i rarely use! For example, I have 2000 points of VC, and i've played with them once. CSM is about the same, and don't get me started on orks. As we speak, I'm trying to build a second ork army with a walker theme. Of course, snikrot was added, so I needed kommandoz, and finally a stompa found its way into my home...ugh. IG has also been a very loooong rollercoaster, first horde, then mech, then elysians, and now drop-troops.

I just can't take it anymore!!!

So, from today onwards, I will now only focus on 1 army at a time until it is completely done.
So now: IG, and i will continue elysians, which will reappear on this blog nce i get some $$$ to buy models with. On my list to get from forge-world is:
2x squads
1x command squad
Vendetta upgrade kit x2
3x Tauros
2x drop-sentinels.
?x weapon packs
and any other models I can afford.

Next will be orks, aside from the stompa, and to show a real commitment to this, I will be selling:
2000 pts of VC
2000 pts of Dark Elves
2000 pts of CSM
 all proceeds will benefit the "buy Ninjaman his elysian stuff" funds. :P

Now then, has anyone come across this problem? did you solve it?

(Oh and btw, Ian is bored on youtube is pretty funny. and pointless. :p)
