Boxing Day

I walked over to my FLGS - Dragon's Den Games - for Boxing Day. I hadn't initially been planning to go, but they sent me a message late afternoon on Xmas Eve to let me know that the Dreadscythe Harridans I'd asked them to get in MONTHS ago had finally arrived!!it is the ONLY unit I need to complete the Nighthaunt Cursed Shacklehorde Spearhead army. 

While I was there I also picked up some Flamers of Tzeentch... because they, also, are the only unit I need to complete a Spearhead army. 

Both things I was going to get at some point in the not-to-distant future... so might as well pick it up at 20% off! 

Dreadscythe Harridans and Flamers of Tzeentch

The difference between the two is ALL of the other stuff needed for the Nighthaunt army is painted - once these are assembled and painted the army will be DONE! Only ONE unit in the Tzeentch army is painted... I still have four units to paint (including these) to complete that army - but these will be handy for the Soulbound Role-playing campaign. 

I had, briefly, considered rolling out to the Warhammer Store on Boxing Day - they had some special edition miniatures available...

The Steel Rook looked pretty cool... cooler than some of the other commemorative minis I've picked up... but... ugh... I just couldn't. I've spent so much on minis this year. (Also, Amanda might have murdered me if I had!). 

Orion was considering of picking her up as well - thinking she'd make a great Vampire Lord! 

I'm going to be really sad if they release rules for this one for Warhammer Quest: Darkwater, or something... 

In other hobby news... 

ALL of the Warhammer Quest: Darkwater miniatures are assembled and primed and over the weekend I'm going to try and knock out the heroes and a few of the hostile groups so we can try the game out on Tuesday with a few friends! 

I'll probably assemble and prime the Dreadscythe Harridans and Flamers... and then leave them be until I'm done the stuff I need for Tuesday... but then I might try to knock out the Dreadscythe Harridans on Tuesday evening/Wednesday morning - just to see if I could get ONE MORE Spearhead army done this year!! 

Looks like I'm going to be in the red again this year (purchased more than I've painted)... ah, well... I've gotten painting again and having acquired most of the things for most of the armies I'm interested in, MAYBE I'll be able to lay off the acquisitions next year and just focus on getting stuff DONE!!!

I've gotten a bit behind on the game reports again. I think I have three to catch up on, and I'll try to do that before the end of the years so I can start with a clean slate in the new year!
