The Objective Marker 5.13.12

Lot's to cover and so little time!

Many things have occurred since the last installment. I scarcely have time to do justice to all of them. So I will summarize in a bullet list and indicate those things I can return to comment on later.

Right, let's get started!




Last issues Objectives were:

• Complete two Fen Wolves
• Base colors on Lone Wolf
• Re-Take pics of the Gretchen and post (pics are washed out and do not reflect the hard work!)
• Get half way through book "Know No Fear"
• Settle on 2250 point Space Wolves army list for 4.28.12 tournament
• Determine/implement changes to training routine
• Formally Begin Nutrition Plan

I completed the following:

• Read "Know No Fear"
• Began Nutrition Plan
• Rest = Fail

Not too stellar when looking at that list. But here is what I have been able to do since last post:

• Took over all responsibilities from our Program Manager. This puts me third in company overseeing...well everything. Got a raise and a company car. Will be traveling every Mon/Tue about 300 miles and 100 miles every Friday.
• Planned and attended Retirement Party for long time friend and co-worker...see first item.
• Worked 60+ hours per week...see first item...heh!
• Kept working out 2 on 1 off...see Training Page for recent updates on progress
• Started Nutrition Plan...see Nutrition Page for details
• Attended 4.28.12 40k Tournament
• Ended up taking Chaos Marines
• Took 5th place...could have taken 1st or 2nd....a story here for sure
• Took some pics
• Will do Battle Summary soon
• Followed all the delicious rumors of 6th edition and Chaos Marines...no comment until see paper
• Decided to begin new project

• My local gaming group is starting a Badaab War escalation league/campaign
• Start with 500 points and work up to 2000
• Models to be painted
• I selected Raptor Space Marines
• Look for a new Project Page, Army Lists and Pics
• Started on first Tac Squad
• Have several Army lists I am considering, but will be heavy on infantry and bikes as troops
• Half way through Void Stalker and 100 pages into the Soul Drinker's Omnibus

So there you have a summarized list of what I have been up to. I plan to follow up with the Tournament summary and Raptor Project Info this week if at all possible.

Next Installments Objectives:

• Finish Void Stalker
• Post Battle Summary for 4.28.12 Tournament
• Create Raptor Project Page and post progress, including finalized Army list
• Finish Test Models
• Retake pics of Gretchin
• Get some Tank Bustas Painted
• Work on Lone Wolf

 As always thanks for the read,
