Alright Dakkaites, ive got a challenge for anyone willing to join. The point of this is to get you a 2000 point playable army of your choice (fantasy or 40k, doesnt matter) bought, built, and painted. There is NO LIMIT to how many people can join. all i ask is to keep posting progress with pictures when you can
YOU CAN JOIN AT ANY TIME! you dont have to join when we kick this off..

So this challenge will start with you previously having very few to no models of an army.
your going to start with the purchase of...
-A Codex
-1 core/troop choice

yes, THATS IT! you dont need to be RICH to do this!

Then you want to post into this forum your army choice and what you have purchased. Then post pics of the unit as it it built and painted.
Once every 2-3 weeks i will post a unit type (core/special/rare/heroes etc) and that will be the next project for you guys. (if its heroes then ill probably only wait a week till the next choice)
Also remember that while you Need to keep building the types posted, YOU CAN STILL BUY OTHER UNITS! build your army at your pace! if you want to go faster, DO IT!
When your at 2000 points you should post a finished shot of the entire army together, so we can all see your hard work finished.

Sounds interesting... but what if were playing an army (like orcs and goblins for example) that needs A LOT of troops? how would we keep up?

You would just follow along and build armys with the rest of us, but like i said you can always buy more units and increase at your own pace. plus your unit size is greater so you could always just buy 2 boxes and build/paint them as 1 core choice

no ones interested? really? i figured this would be a fun way to start an army along with others..

Hmmmm already working on DE and have zero funds if I had finished my DE then I would have been in buuuuuuuuuut let me think about it so thats not a no and its not a yes...

If I do it will be with World Eaters
