Default Which?

Well, as you know.. I went a bit off the deep end with the New Chaos 'dex and my reaction to it. I was planning to sell my Chaos army off anyway, and to remodel it since most of it is nowhere near now the scope and vision I have for the 6th.

Now.. My question is... The SW 'dex is going to take a long while to be out, more than a year most likely. And that is assuming rumors hold true. I also make it a habit to generally NOT start armies hot off the press, as there is always a million of that army and most just band wagon riders.

So.. Should I re-build the sixth as I build the Black Saints, or just leave them to the shelves?

I'd say, go with the Black Saints, then rebuild the sixth. Then, if you must, start a SW army.

as discussed in chat, you'll always have something else occupying your attention.

Not sure I follow your meaning? Something else? Most of my previous ideas were just me graspign at vague modeling ideas trying to grab something. The pre-heresy bit is taken and done beyond my capacity to bring anything new to, as is normal and abnormal truescaling (twice over actually).

So yeah, lol. I'm basically trying to find something new, and either army would be a change. Last time around I didn't really model my Chaos MArines as very... Chaosy?

I would go for the saints...they are playable and since you have to wait for the legio codex for chaos to come out..makes more sense

my view (and one that has been viewed to me numerous times) is that you would be better off concentrating on one army at a time

so very nearly clicked this one you do tend to hop about like a frog with a spring up its ass, but thats just the madness of erus

as i said elsewhere, always keep something on the back burner so stop you getting bored and just switch between them when you run out of steam.

Well, I've got a Space Marine Battle Company for the Saints. I might use some of the coming holidays gift money to buy some bits for a few Chaos conversions I want to do for friends as gifts. Other than that,. i'm up to my ears in Imperials!!!

The idea is, after a Squad (the fiancee wil have control of the box, and I will have to have a squad fully painted before I can get more) of the Saints is done, I do some work on a Chaos models. so far, asked for by friends:

-Daemonically mutated Slaanesh Sorcerer (lower half steed of slaanesh from Fantasy, w/ wings)
-Custom Abbadon, truescaled from Chaos Termie Lord w/ Inquisitor range parts
-Chaos Sorcerer on Jet Bike
-True Scaled Chaos Sorcerer
-Squad of converted Sonic marines (made to be one handed w/ sonic blasters.)

So there will still be presences of the Dark Gods. I have to await the new 'dex before I model much on the 6th. There's a strong rumor on Warseer that the daemon 'dex will contain upgraded rules for the cults as well.

trust me i know the limitations when the other half controls the $$$$
compeimise is the key
im olny allowed to get one box at a time myself and they have to be painted and based and pass her inspecton before i can go get another without repercusions.
its actually worked out better for me (Kind of)
every now and then i sneek a model or 2 by her from ebay
but its all good
