Stop the presses, massive failed goals added for this period!
And the reason is very simple: the Chaos Dwarfs have arrived in Age of Sigmar!!!!
So yeah, needless to say, after decades of Hopium and Copium, all other armies became void and moved to the trade pile what was unpainted, while the already painted stuff went to the "in case of needing them for a solo game" shelf.
To that end, exit the plans for the Easterlings, for the Rohirrim, expanding the Empire of Man and the Wood Elves, the Hedonites of Slaanesh and even the Idoneth Deepkin... and guess what will get a massive goal target next year, because as soon as they are released, all gloves are off on the shopping department!!! I need 5000 points of them in my life, at least. Other painting goals have been put on hold, as all is readied for the return of Hashut. As you could see on the completed projects the past months, that involves working on a lot of other Chaos Dwarf models as well, the fires burn high in my internal forge! But especially the Empire of Man is still doable, needing about 300 points to be finished, and Bolt Action might hit the tally, though it might not be a "legal" force yet then. But I won't be so halfhazard of using them all as veterans to hit the mark, they will be Irregular and Regular troops as they would be in a finished 1250pts list.
Though I do plan to at least add some models to the above still once the possible tournament needed models are finished, which will be somewhere around the end of october I estimate. Maybe, very maybe, I might still make the goals for the Belgians and The Empire of Man, as well as for the Underworlds warbands. The wargame scenery shouldn't be to much of an issue normally, even going over the projected 5 pieces, but others I can already say won't materialize.
Sadly, for the sake of the attended events counter, I won't be able to make it to the Bolt Action tournament, as family planning roared from out of the corner. So to make sure I get my games in, I still have two Underworlds tournaments on the agenda, and hopefully bring some glory to Hashut in the process through the Blood Bowl league. But we have completed the goal of having played 61 out of the wanted 50 games this year, and so far have attended 9 out of 10 events, leagues or tournaments, which will hit completion "by default" with the TSA Blood Bowl League when it finishes.
But enough of the wargames, how about the other stuff on the goals? The movies, hitting 25, have joined the series counter, which is now at 26, as having been completed for this year (though that won't be stopping me from watching either), but unfortunatly both the manga, with 7 out of 30 aimed, and anime, with 25 out of 50, are trailing behind. So far I only completed 7 anime from Noshi's list, so I'm definitly going to have to step that up. It will take along the fact that the regular anime series will also get a serious boost that way, but I'm going to have to get stuck in heavy during this final quarter.
There is already enough red failures on the list as a result of the first part of this post...
On the culinary front, the beer counter keeps going up steadily, beer subscriptions help a lot and I promised Noshi to work away the stock I have lying around before the end of the year. For frituur's, I guess it's time to do a tour one of these weeks again and visit some places, but compared to pre-corona not many actually open anymore during lunch time, so that'll be some searching and googleing. The belly doesn't mind, but the love for our national product does hehehe.
So that is it for the start of the final quarter, some targets might still be reached in a solid end of year sprint (which seems to be a sort of thing in these personal challenges), but it will be taking effort... and I'm by default a lazy person...
