* Some work still needs doing on the bases
** A couple of quantities have changed over the month. I have decided to put a couple of Necromunda figures back on ebay (as I may have bought a few too many for a game I rarely play at present!) and have add a couple of Flames of War trucks.

So not great, basing is the obvious let down and I hope to sort it out this month. On the plus side, I've got the ISUs completely finished which was unexpected, and other stuff is further along the painting stage than I expected. Also I got my Patio finished, which has been a major drain on my time.

With that in mind my aims for October are as follows:
  1. Prepare the base for my Iron Cross Entry.
  2. Finish off basing units.
  3. Assemble the unbuilt units on this list.
  4. Paint at least a unit of PHR (probably the IFV transports, which are acting as the tester for the army colour scheme).
  5. Prepare trophy bases for the first Fire for Effect Flames of War competition, Pick and Mix to be held at the Element Games North West Gaming Centre on December 17th.
