In WMH, I plan to field a Cryx are to battle, also in RTTs.

In 40k, I'll try to keep up with my existing armies. No new army planned.

At the beginning of every month, plan out what I will do this month with a fixed budget. And continue doing this the whole year.

I will complete my Tyranids and hopefully get into Xwing, DZC, or firestorm armada.

40k wise, I'm going for a new army in the new year. Check out my blog over the next week or so and you can see what I do.

Also, I'll be picking up Xwing. Got the starter set, and having had (more than) a few games already, I'm looking at getting a few B-wings, headhunters and possible a few E-wings over the next few weeks so I can use my own stuff when I play and not have to borrow friends stuff.

In 40k I'm hoping to finish my Imperial Gaurd army (that's taking over a year already..) and after that either a new 40k army or starting whole different game.

Plan to paint up some infinity stuff

Finish a flames of war british 53rd welsh army

Paint up some samurai

Learn to play infinity and xwing

Build fantasy terrain and add a river piece to my table.

Paint Bolt Action collection and adapt board to 28mm WW2.

Play Battletgroup Overlord every weekend.

Go to Siege of Augusta.

Take pictures of all said awesome nerd projects.

Keep up with 40k releases for my existing armies (just purchasing, not even assembling)

Throw money at Mantic for anything sci-fi they do

Play a few games of Dreadball, Deadzone and Relic Knights and paint at least a model or two for each of them.

Throw money at a certain Chinese gentleman

Expand my Forgeworld collection

If-I-Have-Time-And-Energy wishlist:

Finish developing my zombie game

Paint a 40k army

Now that is army to game with. Still play Khador from time to time.

Also thanks for the consistent informative posting over the years. You are one few that when posting I'll read because on how positive and thoughtful on how you approach a topic.

WH40k
Finish painting my Iron Hands, Space wolfs and Tyranids

WHFB
Finish the last of my Infernal Guard, before I find some new source for continued reinforcement to my Chaos dwarf army.

Finish my High Elfs aka get around to painting the last of my Silver helms and Dragon princes alongside their commander.

Flames Of War
One goal and that is to complete my Hungarian army, so I have quite few Pnz 38t to paint, and a handful of infanteri teams to finish of

My biggest ambition is to recreate the Battle of Tewkesbury (War of the Roses) in 28mm. I've got most of the minis, now I just need to put my head down and get on with it!

Would love to get round to playing in more events this year, inc. Infinity ITS and hopefully a SAGA one in February as well.

Hi Adam, thanks, I can give you the compliment back as you're also one of the persons here whose comments I'm looking for.

Here are some thoughts:

1. Get my free Big, Stompy Robot game called JUGS upload to the Free Wargames Wikia.

2. Play a few Demo games of JUGS and post up Batreps

3. Paint up enough Glaidators to play a campaign of The Games: Blood and Spectacle

4. Continue to work on the following Rules projects:
--- The Dakota War of 1862- A historical game
--- Of Blood and Irongard- Necromunda Mod
--- Combat! Starring Vic Morrow- A WWII on TV Skirmish Game
--- Half a Loaf of Kung Fu- A Miniature Skirmish Game
--- Under the Eagles- A fantastical ahistorical Napoleanic ruleset

5. Play a Game of Blood Bowl every other Month

6. Play and create 3 Batreps for Aeronautica Imperialis

7. Paint the rest of my Varingyr Brotherhood for Aeronautica Imperialis

8. Paint my Stalwart Class Crusier for Aquanautica Imperialis

9. Pick-up Robotech RPG Tactics

10. Pick-up All Quiet on the Martian Front

Try and get the following stuff done for a Summer campaign: Questoris Knights, a 400 pt Deathworld veteran combat patrol, a 30K Rogue Trader warband of sorts and around 2000 pts of regular old Imperial Guard.

Just getting my foot in the door with WH40k! But I plan to involve myself in as many games as I can in 2015 to learn and expand in it all. Pretty excited!

Paint everything I have thats not finished before I buy new models (might enforce this AFTER the new necron dex comes out though)

Still debating if I should include tyranids with that or not, dont really like playing nids.

I plan to get a few games of Battlegroup or other ww2 based games under my belt.

That means getting some 1/72 forces together so I guess I'll have to build and paint the german units I have sitting in my cupboard and decide on some opposing forces to go with.

Couple that with building enough scenery for the above as well.

I also plan to look further down the rabbit hole that is X-wing and STAW.

Maybe I'll finally take the plunge and try Infinity too.

I want to game more, primarily, but given how my gaming group has kind of disintegrated over the last year that may or may not be possible.

Other than that, my main aim is to get 2 forces painted and based for every system I play before September when I go off to uni. This means finishing at least one of my SM armies to my best standard, starting up another Malifaux faction, expanding my PanO and Nomads and continuing my Star Wars stuff for my homemade SW ground (40mm) and space rulesets (both of which also need finishing up.

I also want to hit 365 minis painted next year. In 2014, as of last week, I was something like 150ish bought to 285 painted, so I'm hoping to push both those totals up next year.

Planning to muck about more with 6mm Fantasy and Epic and create a nifty space fleet with GZG ships and hopefully get some games with it using Firestorm Armada rules.

Compete in every Guardians of Tyr WM/H tournament in my town, however im on the back up list for the first one >.<

I would like to compete more in WM/H after coming third in my clubs tournament and 3rd in last years Guardians league, which. Is great as I was only at two thirds of the events.

Keep on top of my painting! All of my Cygnar, Mercs and Menoth are painted, I have two 35pt Circle armies yet to build or paint and will likely end the year with around 3 50 point options!

Conquer my anxiety enough to start regularly going to my FLGS for Flames of War.

Going to get everything I have painted and play a few games of WHFB with my dad.

Until then, we might go old, old, old school and play a game of Tactics II, which I just found out in his garage.

+ Finish painting my eldar
+ Finish my Knight
+ Finish my CSM
+ Start my KoW Abyssal army and play KoW
+ Finish my Zombicide painting

I find first game in a new flgs is the hardest. After you start to get to know people it's not too bad. I went to one in essex with the girlfriend. Was uncomfortable at first but they made me feel really welcome and got me involved it was a lot of fun. Was meant to join them for fow too but haven't had the chance yet.

Need to paint a couple of divisions of British for a 15mm 200th anniversary of Waterloo game, and I'm starting to brick it. (I'm not a very fast painter)

Otherwise, get together some Uruk-Hai and converted historicals for Mayhem mass battles.

Test my custom chapter colour scheme on a couple of 40K minis and then build the actual chapter in 6mm.

Take another look at some of those random fantasy minis in the lead pile that would actually make a coherent couple of skirmish warbands.

It's not a new one; I was going there and to my local GW regularly--and had been for years--until my mental state tanked. It's taken years, several different anti-depressants, several courses of therapy (including upcoming ones), and a steady flow of anti-anxiety medication to get back to the point where I can even consider going again, never mind actually doing it.

Sounds rough mate. Sincerely hope you get past it soon. I would offer to have a game with you but I am no where near you.

First of all, getting some playtime with the games I own that I haven't played yet. Secondly, paint more miniatures than I buy.

Flesh out my Host of the Eternity King a bit with some Dark Elf Core, and a couple singles (sorceress, assassin). Finish up my Ogres (which basically means "buy box of leadbelchers and second cannon - done!).

Picked up Xwing, so mission for 2015 is "get Slave 1 and Millenium Falcon". They are getting pretty hard to find, and are due for reprint, so i may have to wait for that as i've hit every barnes and noble within reasonable driving distance and no one has 'em. (as an aside, jesus christ if they made this game with WWII planes, you would have trouble getting me to leave my local game store!).

Uhm... past that... for the first time in probably ten years, do more painting of minis than buying of minis. And play more games (which i'm onto a great start, i'm getting about a half dozen 2500 point games of WHFB per month right now which is pretty cool, up about 50% over this time last year).

Thinking about it, my new years resolution should be that I won't buy any new games this year.
