A new player has joined the game!

Well not new really but I look forward to creating my new force of humanity!

To start off I'm thinking a good mix of Empire, Bretonnian, and Stormcast models will make a formidable foe across the realms.  I do have some of my Stormcast painted in gold and I will make sure to get those pictures up soon enough.  At this point I don't feel like the Stormcast are very good against any of the old world armies mainly because they don't have magic or a means to dispel it.  Their stats are great don't get me wrong, but its hard to say they're so unstoppable when ten of them are mowed down by one wizard and a warp lightning cannon after the first shooting phase.  That's what brings me to mixing in other factions of order because big gold fantasy marines can only be so interesting to a certain point.

Right now I think my army's background will be split into three parts: one being the noble and towering warriors of the Stormcast, the second being a kingdom of humans who were fortunate enough to escape through the gates before Sigmar closed them off, and the third will be a smaller band of humans that are remnants of a recently felled kingdom.  I think combining these three will be a lot of fun as I can make very stark paint jobs and interesting story interactions with one another.

That's my initial ideas to start off with.  With my next post I'm thinking it would be good to have a paint job fully done on one model for each different part of the army.  Should have an update for that this Saturday Aug 29th.


Update Aug 29th:

So I have the three models to take pictures of but I don't like any of them in the light they are in.  I will be taking pictures of the tomorrow in natural light to get a better picture.  Plus it gives me some time to finish up the third model I have(phew).

Alright got 3 nifty pics of the paint template for my army.  Each will have a character named as the leader of their respective factions:

Stormcast: Going with the hammers of sigmar here.  My general will be one of my own creations named Leon Thunderhammer (working name) instead of Vandus Hammerhand.

Humans of the celestail realm: Using rifles and standing out with their golden armor these humans of the celestial realm were fortunate enough to make it through the portal before Sigmar closed them off ages ago.

Survivors: These poor souls are all thats left of a recently felled (name TBD) kingdom.  Their land has been broken but the fighting spirit of these people never have been and never will be.
