Hey guys, how is it going? So I started a project recently that I want to share with you today. My local Warmachine & Hordes group, the Beerthralls, recently started up a Journeyman League at the LGS I work at, Huzzah Hobbies. It sounded like fun so I signed on expecting to work on the next section of my 2014 Retribution of Scyrah army project. Well the day of the kick off, one of the Beerthralls called out a challenge to all the members brave enough to accept. Hardcore Journeyman.
In Hardcore Journeyman, first you roll a D6. 1-3 you are playing Warmachine. 4-6 you are playing Hordes. Then you roll a D10 for the army you will be playing for Warmachine or a D6 if you are playing Hordes. Reroll if you already own models for this faction. Then you roll for a random warcaster or warlock from within the faction. Feeling brave I agreed and rolled up Warmachine, 4 Star Syndicate, General Ossrum.
WWWWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! (Not Waaugh!)
Ossrum is a great warcaster when playing the Searforge Contract as his feat is specific to friendly Searforge models. However, fielding him leading a 4 Star army would mean I get none of the Searforge benefits and all of the Searforge drawbacks. Not dissuaded I jumped in, bought Ossrum and all the Rhulic warjacks at the shop and dove head first into the project.
This is where I am so far:
In addition to the above models, I own for the army:
To help with their effort, I will be donating the completed army I am painting for the Journeyman to the Nomads to auction off at the event with all proceeds going to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Stay tuned as I will be posting more pics here as I finish additional models for the project. Click on the Feat of Service link on the right to see all post involving this project.
See you next time.
