Tournament Tomorrow

Well, there is a 50 point Steamroller 2011 tournament tomorrow morning at Misty Mountain Games in Madison, WI.  I've decided to go and try to win coin and glory for the Protectorate of Menoth.  This will be excellent practice for the Mayhem Cup in one month so I've decided to bring the two lists I'll be fielding at the Cup.

I'll be taking some photos of the event as well as trying to remember some of my games.  Wish me luck!

Lists after the cut.

Painted Hierophant

For the next part of the of my painting challenge for the Mayhem Cup, I painted my Hierophant model.  It was a very interesting model to paint because I had to add more red that I am used to for an emphasis on the model  I think it turned out very well.  He'll be getting the dip along with the Errants when they are done.

My Painting To Do List: Mayhem Style!

I figure I won't be able to finish both lists, there are just too many models to paint.  So, I've come up with a timeline to try to keep myself on track.  I've broke them down by due dates, rather than a hard and fast fixed schedule.  I'm hoping to get ahead on my goals and have more than 1 week of free time at the end.

Preparing for the Mayhem Cup...

On April 30th, the Mayhem Cup Event will happen again in Madison, WI.  This will be Madison's second defense of the cup.  Last time,  we had 7 players from Hobbytown USA in New Berlin, WI go.  We took 6th, 8th, 11th (me), 16th, 20th, 23rd, and 38th out of 44 players.  My goal is to break into the top 10.  To do this, I've switched factions from Cryx to Protectorate of Menoth.  I've been disillusioned by Cryx for a little while now and don't want to get stuck in a rut of playing the same two or three Warcasters over and over (for the record, they were Lich Lord Asphyxious, Wraith Witch Deneghra, and Master Necrotech Mortenebra).

One of the random prizes at the event is the fully painted army drawing.  You only need to have one of your two lists you can bring to the event painted, so I'm going to do at least that and try to get both done.

What follows is the craziness I am about to embark on, along with the one guaranteed list and two alternate lists...
