Painting Has Commenced!

After finally finishing every Warmachine and Hordes model I own, I've begun work on the Crimson Fists.

I'd originally painted a command squad of these guys back under 5th edition rules right before I quit playing altogether.  I've had to reintegrate those models into my command structure and into the tactical and devastator squads.

I'm a little more excited about this project now that my painting schedule has opened up more, and once I get some more models done I hope to post some pics.  Ideally I'd like to get a lot of work done so that I can maybe take them with me to Adepticon this year and show off my old 'beakies' to everyone.

I've been discussing playing games with a few friends and it looks like some kind of house rules document needs to be developed for first edition.  Psychic Powers, Vortex Grenades, and various other things (not to mention army list issues that I've posted about before) all need to be ironed out so that we can have some fun moving models around and shooting each other.

If first edition seems good enough, I'll simply use it all the time when playing.  Otherwise it will probably end up being second edition.
