Feels like a life time since I posted here at the workshop which looking was almost 10 months ago. I have not even gotten anywhere in the hobby in that time which I guess really can only come down to bad time management. But praise be The Independent Characters have come along with their Hobby Challenge to have 1850 point army completed in the next 10 months with a 400+ sideboard as well. I have submitted the below list.
1845 pts - Chaos Space Marines Roster

1 Chaos Sorcerer (Familiar + Wings)
Doombolt + Warptime

1 Biker Champion (Power Fist + Plasma Pistol)

For the below side board as I said earlier I had already started the Lord and CMS squad.
Side Board – (470 pts)
HQ
Chaos Lord (1#, 140 pts)
1 Chaos Lord (Melta Bombs + Mark of Slaanesh + Daemon Weapon)
Elites
Dreadnought (1#, 105 pts)
1 Dreadnought (Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter)
Troops
Chaos Space Marines (6#, 200 pts)
5 Chaos Space Marines (Icon of Slaanesh + Flamer)
1 Aspiring Champion (Power Weapon + Melta Bombs + Plasma Pistol)
1 Rhino
Summoned Lesser Daemons (2# 26 pts)
Now my Lord and the CMS troops had to go into the side board as I have already started them but everything else will be from my twoCSM battleforce box sets, what I have collected from ebay and MOAB in the last few years and where most of the fun stuff will come from my bits boxes from the last 20 years of collecting.
Now 10 months to complete around a 2250 point army will be interesting as it took me about that time to do my 1250 point Crimson Fists and I have added study of a Bachelor’s Degree to my life load this time. I am really just hoping I don’t fall behind and as its becoming so hard to find the extra cash for the hobby, maybe I will be lucky and win something to from this which would rock so much as they are giving a prize or two at the end of the 10 months. But really just getting this army done will be the best prise of all.
Thank you Carl and Geoff(I hope I spelt that right) of the Independent Characters Podcast.
Lets see how I go!
