I'm one of those individuals who tends to branch out into other factions instead of adding depth to just one. Back when I played 40k, I simply didn't understand (and still don't) why some people owned 10,000 points of Space Marines, when they could just have 2000 points of 5 different factions and playstyles. While I think that my perspective on owning multiple factions is mitigated in Warmachine/Hordes a bit - since each faction has different warcasters/warlocks that have different playstyles - I still find myself itching to branch out into different factions! Unfortunately, I have come to the realization that I simply don't have enough time!

Steamroller Prep: The Lists
As I posted yesterday, there's an upcoming "Steamroller" tournament coming up at my LGS and I've begun preparation mode. While I haven't played any games with my Circle for some time, I'm eager to take them out of the case and try them out. Fortunately, there will also be a prize for the "best fully painted" and since most of my models fit the category, I'm crossing my fingers that I can compete for that prize as well. Anyway, yesterday I discussed the scenarios that will be played in the tournament, although they will be randomly determined. I'm perfectly fine with the scenarios and they have encouraged me to stick with pKrueger (who I love more and more as I play him) and pBaldur. I originally intended to try eBaldur but I simply don't like his theme force at 35 points. I could change my mind, but for now I think pBaldur has a much stronger list at 35 points, given the scenarios. Plus, both of these lists are fully-painted, so that's nice too :-) So what are the lists that I'm thinking about taking?

Steamroller Prep: Scenarios
There is a 35 point "Steamroller" (because there's no Press Ganger yet) tournament at my LGS coming up on April 15th that I plan on attending. Since I really enjoy the process of planning for tournaments, I figured that I would take this opportunity to use my own preparation as an example for others when faced with a similar situation. I'm pretty excited about this tournament as it's the first in which I will be participating in this area and it'll be a great opportunity for me to get a few games in and meet some of the locals! Let me share with you my thoughts and process of preparing for just such an event.
