2026 might be the year I get LESS minis left to paint than more, as I get more motivated to make forces to be automated with the Aces system. I am genuinely so excited to see what additions to the system will come.
I haven't been this excited by the hobby in a very, very long time.

Now that the Aces system is a thing and I've gotten to use it... I can't even describe how much it has helped hobby drive for me. I'm planning a Kurita Company, thinking of finding more units to make a company for based on campaign books, ect.
I'm even looking at expanding my terrain collection.
