It's almost certainly not getting done. I have a pretty full Middle-Earth schedule. But I'm gonna try.
I have found it is actually helpful to set smaller goals for myself that have a reasonable chance of getting done. It makes it less disappointing when I don't finish.

I may end up branching into Slaanesh. The ability to dual purpose the armies is really appealing to me, though this will be later in the year.
Other than that, I'm pretty content with my AoS collection right now, and will just generally just add things to the armies I already own as they come out. It's going to have to be something really eye catching to have me consider making a possible 6th army.

I'm a big fan of small, 500-1000 point narrative armies. With that in mind, I want to:
-Finish my 500 points of Idoneth, maybe expand to 1000
-500 points of Sylvaneth?
-500 points Ossiarch Bonereapers
-500 points Flesh-eater courts
-Start Collecting! Slaves to darkness (550 points)
While not explicitly AoS, my goal this year is to paint a Warband for Warhammer Underworlds each month.
So far I have:
-Ylthari's Guardians
-Myari's Purifiers
-The Dread Pageant
-Mollog's Mob
-Most of the Wurmspat

I've thankfully already based and painted my Orruk Warclans army back in 2020, so they're largely a finished project. At best, I still have some old school Orc Archers and a Wardokk if I want to dip into some ranged Savage Orruk goodness for my army, so that might be what I'll be doing.
I have, however, just recently finished two of my grot warbands for underworlds. Meaning I've now fully painted all my greenskin warbands for Underworlds! This includes the new Mogrok's Krushas,
The only one for me that's missing is Mollog's Mob, but that's partly because it's out of stock.
Honestly I'm tempted to start up some Gloomspite Gitz after seeing the new WD rules for a squig-heavy army. Can anyone tell me how that's doing ruleswise? I know GG are generally not in a great spot in terms of competitiveness atm, but as far as models go, they're definitely one of the top armies IMO.

I have quite literally this evening just bought the Maggotkin of Nurgle book, with the SC and GUO and one of the trees. Not really played AOS before, although I do have painted up a SC Nurgle demons and some Chaos Knights.
I'm in a new gaming club who, whilst predominantly being 40k has a handful of members who play AOS upto about 1000pts so it seemed like a good opportunity to give it a go.
Fully plan on going down the classic Chaos Warband route for the Army with Beastmen, Skaven, marauders and random Chaos monsters. I want to build the Chaos warband I imagined as a youth back in the 80s. Dedicated of course to Papa Nurgle. I have absolutely no interest in competition, tournaments or min maxing, just purely playing for the fun of it and enjoying some painting and conversions.
Really looking forward to it.

I going to jump into AOS this year. I have squig hoppers, a gargant, and stone trolls from my orc and goblin army. After I rebase the trolls I will pick up a unit or two night goblins so my fanatics will have a unit to travel in. After that I will grab the goblin terrain piece (can't remember the name right now). I guess grabbing some rules will help after that.

My plans are simple
1) Work toward "completing" in terms of models my Slaanesh, Daughters of Khaine and Ossiarch forces. Each has a good chunk to add so I can spread things out and GW is making it harder by adding a huge wave of Slaanesh models to the range.
2) Paint SOMETHING to a decent standard.
I'd love to end 2021 with an army painted and three forces in near complete collected and built (save for sub assemblies for painting) state.
Heck Ossiarchs wouldn't be too far off save that I really want to do a full mounted force of Deathriders which, whilst they are elite cavalry, still adds quite a few kits to the build.

Painting the existing armies, maybe adding 8 more leadbelchers to run underguts list.
And hope for an army that catches my eye and isn't impractical (LRL ended up disqualified based on that). I had hopes for SoBs, but they eneded up being just larger, fatter basic giants with zero customizability.

My plans for 2021?
1. Blood Sucking Vampires!
2. Finish Stormcast Eternals
3. Finish Night Haunts
4. Skaven?
5. Daughters of Khane
Vamp's might not happen in 2021 depending on their release and how much GW messes with them. I envision a small, elite army with a lot of powerful Hero's and Wizards that once they start killing enemy models, they can bring them back (summon) them as units of skeletons/zombies/ghouls. Kinda like the way they were in WH Fantasy. We'll see what GW thinks they should be. The Underworlds Warband looks great!
My Stormcast is basically a pet project of winged armor guys throwing lightning from their hammers led by the Celestant-Prime. Not very competitive, but looks really cool.
The Night Haunts... just awesome models all around. If we ever come out of lock down and the FLGS opens up for gaming again... these guys will probably become my main army.
Skaven are a left over army from Warhammer Fantasy. Not sure what I'm going to do with them. They've just really lost something in AoS and I can't put my finger on it. DoK are interesting to me because of the way they play. A lot will depend on what happens in their new book. They are a very synergistic army with a lot of interaction between the units and hero's that I really like!

I've been building and painting a 500pt force of Ossiarch Bonereapers. Going to hold off there, and wait and see what bundle box/formations come in the Broken Realms: Teclis Book before expanding.
Otherwise, I have my Grymwatch and Hothgorn Mantrappers warbands I still need to paint to have all the season 1-3 warbands finished.

Something to consider for you vampire-lovers out there is that AoS actually has a good number of plastic Soulblight already, which will no doubt be in the new battletome. Could be a good time to stock up before their related Start Collecting boxes run out:
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Vampire-Counts-Coven-Throne - Also makes Bloodseeker Palanquin (and Mortis Engine, though that is not Soulblight). Also available in:
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Start-Collecting-Malignants
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Start-Collecting-Skeleton-Horde - Only source of the mounted mortarch kit, Mannfred and Neffy are Soulblight.
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Vampire-Lord-on-Zombie-Dragon-2016 - Also makes named Soulblight character Prince Vhordrai.
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Start-Collecting-Flesh-Eater-Courts - Makes the above dragon, the monstrous infantry can be assembled as soulblight Vargheists, and the ghouls are easy to sell off to FEC players.

I'd like to shift my Gitz into a full Jawz of Mork list. Mostly waiting until I've painted down some of my other backlogs since I probably won't get a chance to play until they change all the points again anyway.

2) Build & paint up a Chaos Marauder?/Dark Elf? Maybe Idoneth? slaver/raider force. Along with a village + villagers & a small CoS defense force.
This is aimed at being more of a mass battle scenario for use in our D&D game than just an AoS project, so I'm undecided on the enemy raiding force atm. The BBEG (who's not actually present in the battle) has sent out his raiders to capture as many villagers as possible for his dastardly plan (wich the PCs will ultimately have to foil). Different VPs for different types of villagers/defenders captured/saved.
It'll also serve as an AoS demo game for the shop. The one I did last year Goblins invading "The valley of the Druids" ( CoS/Sylvanth alliance) went quite well. Furthered our D&D game and drew in two new players to AoS/ 40k. So let's do it again!
Target time frame: June(?)
Quoting myself & updating the plan....
So I've pretty much decided to go with Slaves to Darkness as the attackers for this. Specifically Marauders (how many?), Marauder horse (how many?), the Darkoath characters, the Godsworn Hunt, Kagra's Ravegers, 4-5 chariots & a box of the untamed beasts. And maybe (probably) a wizard.
A pretty Norsca-esque raiding force....
Now I just need to settle on the exact defenders (guess that'll mostly be determined by the StD sides pts value). The goal is to put the CoS forces at a disadvantage but also not cripple them.
Settle some scenario specific rules.
I need to make 40-60some building (mostly houses)
I need the following in 28-32mm building-wise: a Church, a tavern, and a windmill.
Castle walls & gate I've already got.
I also need assorted town dressings.
But the big thing? Is having to paint up about 150++ assorted towns folk - men/women/children.
These will score pts if not captured/killed or if they've fled to the safety of the Church or Fortress (and those're still standing
Tonight (2-2-21) I took the first step in feilding this game: I built the Untamed Beasts.

My goals for AOS this year are:
1) Sell my vanguard stormcasts.
2) Sell my ossiarch bonereapers.
3) Sell either my ironjawz or the sacrosanct.
4) Maybe sell either my ironjawz or the sacrosanct.
I'm quite disulusioned with AOS. haven't played it in a year and a half, in fact (which is quite damning because I've played WHU, infinity and conquest in that time frame). And I found better, more interesting alternatives. I am doubtful I will go back to AOS unless they ditch the ancestral IGO-UGO and the double turn.
