~~Enemy Frequency Intercepted: Begin Transmission~~
As the tale of 2 admirals begins I find myself with a lot of ships to paint. This is a blessing and curse, it's nice to have the ships to play with if needed but, it also makes progress quite challenging as a mass of unpainted ships aren't exactly a good motivator. The Tale should hopefully fix that!
"This tale will run for 12 months. Each month, we must paint a set number of points of models, and post photos in a blog post at the end of the month. Because real life gets in the way, we will have two "jokers" that allow us to take a month off, if we have not been able to get what we aimed for painted. For the purpose of this tale, we have assigned SAS tokens a value of 5 points each."~~Whyarecarrots
What am I painting?
I have approximately 3000 points of Russian Coalition models unpainted. I'm currently aiming to complete 300pts per month with two jokers. It's possible that I'll be able to pick up the pace a little but I always feel like there are a million demands on my time and I'd rather keep painting consistently than push myself and risk burning out.
The Russian Coalition

| Here pictured is the largest game I've ever played of dystopian wars with my Russian fleet facing the combined might of Chinese and Japanese forces, yes those are giant mechanical squid. |

2x Magadan Submarines 360pts
2x Azov Battlecruisers 240pts

10x Mezen Corvettes 200pts
10x Veliky Escorts 250pts (There actually might be a couple more or less than this I haven't had them all out on a table for a while)
I will be starting with a large number of frigates for my first month (December 1st), as shown by the above photo, I painted a lot of big ships first...
Thanks for dropping by, Russia Out!
