Greeting all, I have decided that for 2014 I will be taking on a few gaming modeling projects and I want to share the experience with everyone. The main project will be a new counts as Empire army. I love the look of fantasy armies and the ranked up units. The look and feel of fantasy is something that 40k just does not have, for better or worse.*
To start off I have a fascination with the history and culture of Japan. I've been there twice and love the sites, sounds and taste. So the challenge for this year is to create a Samurai themed counts as army and display board. Hopefully one that will look and feel like *a well done GW army.
Now many of you will undoubtably know of the warhammer armies project and the Nippon book. "why don't you build an army from that book?" The main reason is that not all players will play a game involving a fan made army book. I want this army to be able play against everyone with no hang-ups.*
