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...
The Guaranteed List
Grand Scrutator Severius - Fully Painted
* Blessing of Vengeance
* Repenter - Fully Painted
* Repenter
* Hierophant
Avatar of Menoth - Primed
Choir of Menoth (Leader and 3 Grunts) - Fully painted
Exemplar Errants (Leader and 9 Grunts) - Primed
* Exemplar Errant Officer & Standard Bearer

Exemplar Errant Seneschal
Rhupert Carvolo, Piper of Ord - Primed
The Covenant of Menoth
The Wrack (3 wracks) - Fully Painted
Vassal Mechanik
Vassal of Menoth
Vassal of Menoth
To be fully painted for this list, I have to paint 25 models.
The Alternate Lists:
Grand Exemplar Kreoss - Fully Painted
* Fire of Salvation
Exemplar Bastions (Leader and 4 Grunts)
Exemplar Errants (Leader and 9 Grunts) - Primed
* Exemplar Errant Officer & Standard Bearer
Exemplar Vengers (Leader and 2 Grunts)
Knights Exemplar (Leader and 5 Grunts) - Primed, 2 done, 4 left to paint
Knights Exemplar (Leader and 5 Grunts)
Visgoth Juviah Rhoven & 2 Honor Guard
Exemplar Errant Seneschal
High Exemplar Gravus
Knights Exemplar Seneschal
Vassal Mechanik
This list has 17 models similar with the first list. After that, I'd have to paint 18 other models.
Feora, Protector of the Flame
* Templar (Bonded)
* Vanquisher
* Vanquisher
Avatar of Menoth - Primed
Choir of Menoth (Leader and 3 Grunts) - Fully Painted
Exemplar Bastions (Leader and 4 Grunts)
Gorman di Wulfe, Rogue Alchemist - Fully Painted
The Covenant of Menoth
The Wracks (3 wracks) - Fully Painted
Vassal Mechanik
Vassal Mechanik
Vassal of Menoth
Vassal of Menoth
This list shares 11 models with the first list, however, 7 of those 11 are already painted. That gives me 10 other models to paint for this list. This will be a fall back if I fail to finish the other list.
In either event, this three lists will be fully painted soon, and add quite a bit of a paint to my Protectorate of Menoth collection. It is a whopping 43 models to paint for lists 1 and 2 or a nice 35 for lists 1 and 3. We'll see how far I can get.
NOW I KNOW YOUR SECRETS!!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't know if I'll make it for Mayhem. I already have an event with Little Wars. Free passes only go so far...
