Hobby Resolutions, though. Might be fun on Dakka. :)<BR/><BR/>First draft:<BR/><BR/>1. Tri-elf Nations! Continue filling out my Wood/High/Dark Elf armies.<BR/><BR/>2. Orks with grots! It's a Dakka themed paint scheme and I'm liking how my starter models turned out. <BR/><BR/>3. Eldar Harlie scheme. <BR/><BR/>4. Play more warmachine. Play more hordes. I have a crapton of gaming options for these games and I get maybe 2-3 games in a month. Must have more! (This is my game of choice)<BR/><BR/>5. Actually try out more games for models I have. I have stuff for Infinity and Uncharted Seas painted up. Sure would be nice to get to play.<BR/><BR/>6. Paint up more terrain. I have stuff from armorcast and GW. At least I haven't been too tempted to buy anything major.<BR/><BR/>7. I'll think of more for the Dakka discussion.Felix Flautahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00645999988674441594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-840618202401674302008-12-29T14:18:00.000-06:002008-12-29T14:18:00.000-06:00I'm planning on doing a similar post for my blog l...I'm planning on doing a similar post for my blog later, so I'll save mine for that.<BR/><BR/>However, I have a resolution... get my blog out of the "other blogs I like" slum and up the page to "top Blogs". What do I gotta do, John?!<BR/><BR/>I guess that means I have to blog more, huh?<BR/><BR/>Also, if you're not going to drop 40K, we will play this next year.

Sounds easy, but when life gets in the way it can be tough.<BR/><BR/>Finish painting for other people, I currently have only a few people I am painting for, Tom & Mike, Toms stuff is close to being done, BFG Imperial fleet, 6 1/48th scale Tamiya Kits and a few other vehicles and a 50 model orc army, Mike has left is a few Pulp figures and then Arnca old West buildings! So only a few more to go!<BR/><BR/>Start & finish a small LotR campaign with a few friends. I started one that was way too big in 2008 and only after 2 sessions it died out because I was too busy. 2008 lessons learned to start small!<BR/><BR/>Continue to get LotR to the table either with me playing or running events like Gathering in the Desert.<BR/><BR/>Paint more LotR, I have about 300+ LotR figures of my own too work on, want to get to more of those this year.<BR/><BR/>Organize & run a LotOW or LotHS campaign, after writing LotHS I was burned out with looking at anything that had to do with Pirates, I am slowly comming back around to them!<BR/><BR/>Build more terrain for myself! I always build for everyone else but have none of my own, so 2009 will be the "Me or Mine" year for terrain.<BR/><BR/>And last but not least, to keep my blog updated at least once a week!<BR/><BR/>So we shall see how well I do...Tim Kulinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15556960285841667223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-43135661911384506492008-12-28T22:40:00.000-06:002008-12-28T22:40:00.000-06:00Ive only got one real resolution, much like Ron sa...Ive only got one real resolution, much like Ron said, play more games!<BR/><BR/>Im planning on trying to get a game every two weeks this year, unlike last year (where I might have gotten a game every two months!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07687550434283739337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-37493630306234356242008-12-28T11:51:00.000-06:002008-12-28T11:51:00.000-06:00I've only got one.Play more than 10 games of 40k t...I've only got one.<BR/>Play more than 10 games of 40k this year.<BR/><BR/>I always seem to be doing stuff other than playing.Space Hulk Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03522498406401972832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-66800124982675015362008-12-28T00:48:00.000-06:002008-12-28T00:48:00.000-06:00oh boy gaming resolutions. These are gonna be har...oh boy gaming resolutions. These are gonna be hard to stick to. Order from most easy to hard.<BR/><BR/>1. Cut back on my hobby spenditure. While I love being able to have choices when creating my lists, I really need to cut back my spending. I have the upcomming wedding, and honeymoon to think about, not to mention all the normal living expenses. Like John said this should be a "no brainer", but it diffucult with all the shiny new releases.<BR/><BR/>2. Finish my Wood Elves @ 2250 for the upcomming plastic legion/GW campaign. Shouldn't be to hard, motivated on these guys right now, and really looking to trying them out at a "normal" points scale.<BR/><BR/>3. Finish my VC @ unknown points level. Lots of stuff to work on with these guys. They are my 1st army for WFB as well as my fav. Corpse Carts, Zombie Dragon, Ghouls, KoBKs, rest of the Grave Guard. All of these need finishing.<BR/><BR/>4. Finish "apoclypse-izing" my Nids. Got a few of the bugs, as well as horde of the smaller ones to work on. This will be a bit more of a challange for me, as I'm not currently involved with 40K.<BR/><BR/>5. Play more Warmachine, hopefully @ 750 pts. I have a fairly large Cryx army, and I spent a fair amount of time on it. Right now its in the display case gathering dust. Really need to get these guys on the table.<BR/><BR/>6. Keep my other gaming group "Roarke's Drifters" motivated. This has been a challange already, and I don't see it getting any better. Really need to organize more meetings, and just keep in touch with everyone more.<BR/><BR/>7. Play some actual games/campaign in Legends of the Old West. Moderately challenging. I have the Figs, and I have the town, need the time.<BR/><BR/>8. Get involved with LotR. Had some grand plans for a couple different LotR armies. Even Bought all the books, starter sets and some figs already. Not sure when or where I'll get the time to work on this stuff though.<BR/><BR/>eh, guess thats it for now. We'll see how far I actually get with this list.Bill Limhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11920710403493838091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-73253847779249235112008-12-27T23:37:00.000-06:002008-12-27T23:37:00.000-06:00My local game store is starting a series of tourna...My local game store is starting a series of tournaments this year. It will be 3 tournaments, and then an invite-only 4th tournament.<BR/><BR/>My resolution is to build new armies for each of the 3 tournaments, and should I qualify for the 4th, to paint enough of my existing Tyranids to play them then.Wienashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16756262005166254202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786977598764243863.post-70803362312640715082008-12-27T18:31:00.000-06:002008-12-27T18:31:00.000-06:00My gaming resolutions are (in no particular order)...My gaming resolutions are (in no particular order):<BR/><BR/>-Start a campaign that myself and my mates have been planning for some time, that involves pitching each of our armies against each other. gonna last a while.<BR/><BR/>-cut my spending on minis, because it's getting out of hand and I've got too much too paint already; two mostly unpainted 40k apocalypse armies!<BR/><BR/>-stop converting so much and paint more (see above).<BR/><BR/>-finish writing the 40k house rules that I've been working on with my gaming buddies.<BR/><BR/>-find a way to make my game table more portable because when my girlfriend and daughter move in with me I'm gonna need to save room :)<BR/><BR/>That's it from me.
