People still building armies? I'll be building one up once I finish my Warhammer Fantasy list. Looking at potentially doing Empire of Dust.

I'm building either a ratkin army, or a goblin army. I have a starter set that has both forces, and will build both to do a demo game for a friend. Once I've figured which I prefer, I'll expand from there.

Oh, I forgot to mention earlier, but there are still some others working away at their armies as well. I just have very slow progress.

I won't be starting for a bit maybe in June. I'm having a test game once we are out of lockdown and still looking into all the rules and what I should get for my guys. I'll probably be buying a mix of tomb kings and getting some STL files for what I can't find.

Nothing wrong with that.
Mantic themselves have some Empire of Dust models for what it's worth, but it's not a complete range, so filling it out with Tomb Kings and various 3D printed things sounds good. On that note, where do you go to find your really old models?
Other than me, there is pliantcarrion from the forums here, as well as a few of his friends. He is building an Ogre force. That's at the very least a few of us anyway. Add to that that once I have the starter set done, I'll show it to a friend of mine that is interested in getting into minis. Although for him there is no guarantee, and he may decide to go with a different game.

I've pretty well got an army together using my old empire army. I've been building up a couple regiments of pikemen just for KOW. Otherwise I've just got to cook up some movement trays.

I'm probably going to make my own from mdf or plasticard.
I've also considered using sheet steel as my bases are magnetized.

I recently ordered a goblin battle force for KoW and once I get it and build it up, I'd also be interested in trying to get some games in.

I’ll be building up an empire of dust army here shortly so I’d be down for a small game to figure out the rules and such!

My goblins came in and I think once I get it all built I'll have around 1300 points. I've spent a few days building the Mantic goblins...and man...I don't think I'm going to get the manic models again for my next force. I've needed to do a bunch of clean up on them, and the quality has been pretty rough. I guess I've been spoiled by GW. haha
Either way, I'm excited to get some games in! I'm aiming to have stuff built and ready by mid to late September.

Yeah I had mantic stuff in the past and found the same thing and won't buy their stuff again... Clunky sculpts with a ton of clean up... But at least they're cheap?

I'm personally aiming to have my goblins done by the end of October. I'd like to have them all painted too, but I might have to play my first couple games with unpainted or partially painted minis.
How are everyone else's armies coming along?
