Coming Along

Only 1 more unit left to paint. The whole army is nearly done and it will be just in time. I have my warriors left to paint for Bayou Battles. There are still 25 of them. BUT they go pretty quickly. The paint scheme is fairly simple but effective. So I should be able to get them done and to a good enough standard that they will mesh well with the rest of the army.

Gonna be a good tourney. If I can go 3 and 2, I will feel really good about myself afterwards. But really I've got smashed every game before and still had a lot of fun .

Bayou Battles Army Breakdown.

Heres the lists for Bayou, some are from reserve list, and some from guys that have posted two armies. I guess they haven't finalized which they are taking yet. The breakdown looks like this..

Beatsmen:  3

Bretts: 1

Chaos Dwarfs: 0

Daemons: 7

Dark Elves: 3

Dwarfs:  9

Empire:  5

High Elves: 6

Lizardmen: 3

Orcs: 3

Ogres: 1

Skaven: 6

Tomb: 6

Vampire: 7

Wood Elfs: 3

Warriors of Chaos: 10

So, warriors are the front runner with 10 entry's.  Dwarfs a surprising 2nd. Then VC and Daemons pulling up the 3rd. I am not keen to be facing so many gun lines. But I am sure not many are keen to be facing so many warriors either, so there we go. 

Surprising is the lack of Ogres in the field. It is a really strong, balanced book. Is it a case of people learning how to deal with them so not many people taking them? Or maybe the polish is wearing off and people are abandoning the bandwagon? Maybe just a case of new shiny, WoC DoC and Elves stealing their thunder. Maybe its just a fluke and next tournament will have 1000 of them. I am anxious to see. Really if they are few and far between again I may pick them back up. I loved the book, but didn't love the thought of there being 2 million of them out and about.
