You should post a picture of your station after you set it up! I'm interested in how much space it'll give you.
Here's a picture. Not that much room after putting my wet palette on there. Think I'll remove one of the cup holders so that I can put the palette there and leave more space in the middle.
Oh, and please ignore the non AoS models :)z

Planning to do so once it turns up.
Btw, is your name Mr Stimpson, or Mrs Timpson?

No pictures to post, but I ordered a portable painting station so I can bring my stuff into the living room and paint in the evening without my wife moaning that I'm deserting her. So I might actually be able to post some progress next week

Lets say you get Wrathmongers as a battleline if your general is a Skullgrinder (hypothetically as he's not got his own command ability), that works great for a really punchy Khorne army, massive blob of Wrathmongers storming across the board. But there's nothing stopping you putting in a unit of Stormfiends, suddenly you've gone from something you can justify as a Khorne army to something that isn't.
I see your point, perhaps the rule could be that you have to have an XXX general, and 50% (or 75% or whatever) of units are XXX to get the battleline, so the army is mainly XXX but with the possibility of a few allies.

The extra battleline option for a specific allegiance is intended to help you build up a mono-faction army, leaving the general to your choice.
But if you have a mono faction army, whichever model you pick as your general, it will satisfy the requirements. (Unless you were referring to picking a non hero model as your general)
I think it's an idea that could work, would certainly help out some of the smaller factions, although it may be a bit unfairly balanced to bigger factions who already have a lot of battleline options. I think you'd have to change every battleline unit to a faction specific battleline to make it work.-

Well if you think of it, instead of using the old-edition terminology of "fleeing", as the current "retreat", and consider that tactical withdrawal is a real tactic, it's less wrong maybe.
Agreed. Fleeing was something you were forced to do. It's been replaced by battleshock. Retreating is your choice.

Looks good, i love those models. Do you have ideas for basing? I've been thinking about The Battle of the Five Armies recently, I think it would be cool to do some tall grass basing.
Yeah, they're great models, and turned out to be a lot easier to paint than I thought. Just basecoat with black, brown and green, drybrush silver and copper, and I'm done. Am still debating putting them on round bases, but not sure I can be bothered/risk damaging them. Was just thinking fairly basic brown sand with a few specks of grass.

Got one hammerer "finished" to test out the colour scheme. I think if I get them all to this level, the unit will look pretty good without any extra highlighting etc.

Stick it to a metal sheet and magnetise the models. Wallhammer is a go
Why stop there? I'm thinking Ceilinghammer.
