This is what insanity looks like...

I spent some time this afternoon putting this together.

Having done this, I have discovered several things.

Firstly, I have an ungodly number of marines. There are over 600 of them on the table. Thats not including the 50 or so that need arms attaching, or the 50 more still on sprues. Between my Wolves, Angels (both flavours), Ravenguard, Crimson Fists, Mantis Warriors and assorted others, I have a full 1st company, a full battle company (nearly 2) and a full assault company. Plus support.

Secondly, I am totally out of control with regards to only buying what I need and painting what I buy.

Thirdly, I am missing 2 Ravenguard tactical marines since NagoyaHammer. If anyone has them, please let me know. They're black with a red trim on their shoulder pad.

Only the insane have strength enough to prosper. Only those who prosper may truly judge what is sane :lol:

I really don't know what to say.

I actually stared at the message box and thought about what to type and I couldn't come up with anything coherent, just a string of adjectives.

stupid, impressive, vast, unnecessary, cool, unpainted, pointless, jealous, skint, addicted, dedicated, busy.

@prim

*salutes sharply* Sir, I salute you.
You shine a light upon us and show us for what we really are: folks who enjoy a bit of miniatures based wargaming every once in a while. You, however are something else.
You sir, are a Gamer.

Sah! *salutes once again*

Yeah, I only have about 200-250 guardsmen.
Though I do have 9 Super Heavies for the guard.....
