Default Re: How far do you take your armies

Honestly.. I tend to take an idea in my head...

I wanted to do a Roman/Crusade Themed Chapter. I also wanted to do a Blood Angels successor.

I then decided what units would be cool for each. Obviously, Roman themed army should be big... Because.. Well ... It's Rome.. and Rome's armies were nothing if not HUGE.

I also needed lots of assault marines. It is BA successor... I needed quite a few furioso dreads. And some Psykers... And a fairly high amount of veterans, as the BA and their scions are prone to long (even for SM) lifespans.

So that formed the basis of what my army was. And I took a few cool units I like personally, as well as a few Apoc formations!

I have 6,000+ points of pure Grey Knight goodness. The case I store them in has to weigh 60 pounds (thats 26.5kg for you folks across the pond).

I always wanted an entire company of marines. So, if you are going to do it. Like I always say "If ya gonna be a bear, be a GRIZZLY!"

On the average I have about 2000 to 4000 points on any list I do. I like options and never liked the static list which is only good for a tourny.

Necrons 3500pts
Marines 2500pts (DIY)
Death Guard 3000pts
Nids 2000pts
That isnt counting my fantasy stuff .... I think I have a problem.

what limit? my Imperium knows no limit, it shall expand until it can expand nomore(main;y my Imperial Guard)

who so far, just by guessing from what I plan on buying, the rough calculated points cost is:10K

got over 900 Guardsmen(Catachan/Cadian/Steel Legion/Vostroyans/Valhallans/Tallarn/Elysian Drop troops and Death Korps of Krieg)
100 vehicles(Baneblades/Titans/Leman Russes/Basilisk's/Sentinals/Rough Riders)

that's JUST my Imperial Guard, I could include all my armies if anyone wants.

but, the sad fact is, that's all many months away(truly I only have 149 Guardsmen so far).
