An Army Inventory

Well, if I am the only one posting, I might as well make this thing useful to me.

Let's go over my various armies and what they have to-be-painted as of yet.

Organized by game system, shall we?

40k

Blood Angels - Have about 2000 points painted. Currently have 6 Tactical Squads and 6 Landspeeders - thanks to windfall of 3rd edition 40k boxes courtesy of Mr. Chris Arant. Would like to replace Terminators in the army with the new model plastics. Would also like to add a Land Raider (Crusader?) to the army for punch. Overall, very playable.

Word Bearers - Have about 2000 points painted. Approximately 3 Squads, 10 Daemonettes, 10 Bloodletters, 1 Rhino, 1 Defiler to be painted. Would like to add Statured Daemon Prince, possibly a Greater Daemon to the army.

World Eaters - Have about 1500 points painted. Haven't looked at the army in a long while - it's hard to play these days without some adds to the army, like a Statured Prince, a couple of Predators, maybe a Bloodthirster.

Necrons - Have about 2500 points painted. Some of the army needs re-basing. Some of the Warriors don't have green rods inserted. Would like to add some Pariaths and a Monolith to army - maybe two? Have several bases of Scarabs unpainted - overall, probably the most complete 40k army I own!

Tau - Approximately 1500 points. Only one unit of Kroot painted. Low on overall priority list. Would like to add two Hammerheads, one Devilfish.

Tyranids - Approximately 2000 points. Scattered pieces (30ish Gaunts, 7-8 Warriors) painted. Would like to replace older-model Hive Tyrant and Tyrant Guard with new models. Would like to add Raveners.

Sisters of Battle - Approximately 1000 points. Nothing painted. Would be useful as add-on to Guard army, but little push.

Imperial Guard - Approximately 2000 points. Mostly painted except for the vehicles. My Guard army is really two armies in one - the (old metal model) Cadian infantry side, and the Steel Legion mech infantry side. At one point I was trying to push for all Steel Legion/Mech Infantry but didn't get this accomplished. The Mech Infantry army is fun any surprisingly effective on the field...although I don't think I ever played it in 4th edition. I don't imagine much has changed because while assaulting-out-of-vehicles got riskier, Mech Infantry NEVER assaults. Would like to get the remaining Steel Legion and vehicles painted and make this the primary "Guard" army.

Orks - Last remaining bunch are Ebay-bound.

Grey Knights - never really an army. Two squads, and Inquisitor and some retinue. Mostly just an add-on for my Guard and Blood Angels. Wouldn't mind getting a squad of Grey Knight Terminators but hardly a priority for me.

Dark Eldar - Approximately 1000 points painted. Tons and tons unpainted.

Man, I'm thinking about starting ELDAR? I'm nuts. Screw that noise.

Okay, new post for each game system.

I still read from time to time, but, yeah, not precisely a hot format.
