Krieg, Guard & Orks! Armageddon Mega Project
Starting point.......or should I say pointage.
So doing an Imperial Guard (Astra Militarum) force unless you take a heap load of armour will find you with quite a number of miniatures to paint, after all the basic Guardsman is 5 points. I am currently having to make some assumptions to aim off for the release of the next Guard codex as we are seeing large changes and a big one for DKoK as they are supposedly having their core elements and options folded into the main codex with the specials still in the FW Compendium.
Building that many miniatures is really off-putting so to start with I am just aiming for a 500 point force, which is something I can get started playing with and incrementally expand on to larger points values. By choosing to start with a smaller force helps with my learning curve and in the amount of time it will take me to get each increment of models done, I am hoping to have had some games and got a feel for the force as it increases.
So this weekend I will decide what will be my first 500 points, post the list and which unit I will be building and painting first.
