Civs foray into his own plastic addiction

At the start of this project way back when i was suign this as a way of getting back into 6th ed warhammer, the old world was dead, some interest flared up in my local area so it seemed like a decent motivation to get my stuff painted.

Fast forward almost a year and i have now discovered Warhammer Armies project (WAP) and am in love with the game. I did try 6th ed and whilst balanced lead to some rather lack luster combats and guessing of artillery meant i kept avoiding artillery, which for an empire player was shameful.

Helped out by miniwargamings Steve (now also under mountain miniatures on youtube) regularly putting out bat reps for WAP and having such fun and squarehammer also doing in depth reviews of army books (also on youtube) and doing even more bat reps i have found some reinvigoration for the project.

Even my local group have started playing, mainly for the nostalgia but they seem to be enjoying it. Its an excuse to put the 3d printed armies to good use as well, one now has a chaos dwarf army to field.

My current aim is to paint up my Middenheim empire army, which to be fair was half painted to start with, to get me going. I can then start on the other armies i have slowly getting them fnished unit by unit.

This could be my game, the one i play to the exclusion of all overs, mainly becuase i dont get much gaming time so one game is all i can really manage!

Books are free and really easy to use and follow, they can be found here:

They even have a really good app to help with rules and quick searches during gaming:

Ive printed out the army books im interested using places like DOXdirect (they do black friday sales and a newsletter sometimes with discounts) and have downloaded battlescribe to build out lists (this has been really good too and made the experience great, it even has the magic rules and spell etc).

All in all my intro into WAP has been seamless and im in love with what they have done with the 8th ed books to make things more balanced and interesting.

I cant wait to get some more games in.
