Warhammer 40k Escalation League at Checkpoint

Even while I was away, the local Warhammer 40k community had not been idle. Championed by our local gaming store, Checkpoint, a series of events dubbed "Escalation League" are in full swing. The ambitious aim of the events is to get people to paint up their armies. Sadly, I have missed the first month of the league; now that I'm back, it's time to dive in headlong!

The point of the league is to "gamify" the evolution of a Warhammer 40k army. As such, there are various objectives for which points are awarded.
First and foremost, you can gain points by painting:

• a fixed number of points for painting stuff before the league;
• painting units during the league;
• creating terrain;
• creating objective markers;
• bonus points for creating a "league character"

Then, you can gain points for playing:

• playing games during the league
• playing games with your "league character"

Then there's a tournament at the end of league, where you can gain more points.

Each week, there's a minimum points limit to the games. This increases over time - hence "Escalation" League. It began with 500 points; this is the second and final week of 1000 point games. Until now, there have been restrictions on the army composition - but all is fair starting with next week's 1250 point games.

Now then, on to my progress.
