Warmachine Journeyman League

Another one I thought I would share with people, is Privateer Press' "Journeyman League".

The link can be found here: http://privateerpress.com/files/CompleteJourneyman.pdf

Basically it's a league between players starting from scratch in a game or with an army. Each player picks a faction and then earns generalship points for winning games in the league, along with earning hobby points as they paint each of their units.

The player with the most generalship points earns an award, the player with the most painted units also earns an award and the player with the best combined total also earns one.

It sounds like a very interesting idea, starting off with the battlebox contents, then expanding on these up to a certain points limits week by week.

I was wondering if there would be any interest in this, either for Warmachine and getting involved in that game - or for new (or even existing, unbuilt / painted) armies for 40K / Fantasy.

Any thoughts?

Peace,

[Paintlog] Imperial Guard Objective Markers and Khador Warcaster

Hey all,

This week I've been pretty busy with stuff, and whilst trying to find the time to get around to writing a full on article, I've been painting up some bits lying around the paint desk.

First up are some objective markers I made for my Imperial Guard army. I didn't like the Dozer blades being on my Guard tanks, so I began removing them and thought, rather than let them go to waste, I could make these Comms-Radar Dish objective markers.

They're extremely simple and nothing more than a Dozer Blade stuck on a base, but they do the job!

This is my first Warmachine model, which was bought a fair few months back, intending to be the leader of a Khador Wargroup. Unfortunately, due to messing around with the model, I snapped one end of her hammer off.

I avoided the Bronze / Gold look that the Khador stuff normally has, trying to stick to cold silver, dark red and light blue for the winter feel.

I'm quite impressed and I think in all, she took me about an hour or so to paint, wash with Badab Black and then paint the flesh and details.

This is what's currently dumped on the paintdesk. Old Guard Metal Command Squads, Psykers and some extra Ratlings to boost my squad up to 8. They're taking a long, long time to get through.

They've had the Combat Fatigues painted and highlighted in Grey, Metal work has been done and their armour, boots and anything Black has been reset.

Now all that's left to do is the Flesh and minor details and the first batch of the remaining Guarsdsmen is done. The rest of the entire army, I'm hoping can be painted up by the end of August ready for a big Apocalypse game or something.


So yeah guys, any thoughts before I get onto working on my next big article?

Peace,
SB
