Roll Call: Heroes of Armageddon


I think today is a good time to direct everyone over to the Heroes of Armageddon project.  For those who haven't seen it yet, it's a charity drive being put together by many of the same members that ran the Storm Wardens charity last year, only this time it's even bigger and crazier!

The charity has been open for a few weeks now, and there are prizes given out near every week, all you have to do is pony up a few bucks for a good cause and you have a chance at winning something really cool from a really good group of guys!  So take that soda money for the week, save a few calories by drinking some water, and give up a couple of bucks to help those who are less fortunate than ourselves. 

All money is going to Doctors Without Borders, and you have a chance to win one of four armies being assembled and painted!  To find out more, read this post by the team.

So, what are you waiting for?  Go do the right thing!

Isaiah is a 3rd grade student at Spring Hill Intermediate School.  He has recently returned home after receiving a transplant for his liver, pancreas, and small bowel.  This is the second transplant Isaiah and his family have gone through.  He received an initial transplant in March of 2007 for just small bowel.  This eventually failed and had to be removed in March of 2009.  Over the next six to nine months, he will be required to travel back and forth from home to Omaha, NE.  This also requires the travel of at least one parent and takes considerable time away from work and home as the family is responsible for 100% of his daily cares.

ALL profit from this auction goes directly to his parents to pay for mounting medical and travel bills. Isaiah's dad contacted me and asked me to paint and sell some sisters of his to get the money back out of them in their time of need.  It was such a touching story there was no other option but to go all out!  A BIG thank you to Nick Rose at Bell of Lost Souls (belloflostsouls.com) for donating some MUCH needed sisters. Our list was pretty skimpy before he came along!  PLEASE keep the cause in mind when bidding and DO NOT bid unless you plan to own this army and help out this boy and his family.

The army will be packed very carefully.  I paint miniatures full time and have years of experience shipping minis.


If you've ever thought about picking up a Sisters army, you couldn't do a better than to pick this army up and help out a family in need.  This army costs over $500 in the boxes, and GMM does quality work.  Head over and check it out, maybe you'll be taken in by all the pretty pictures and do some good in the process.

Roll Call: Win an Army, Do Some Good



Santa Cruz Warhammer is spearheading a charity army build to collect money for Doctors Without Borders.  Each dollar you donate enters you in a chance to win the finished army.

Why would you donate?  Oh, how about the chance to win an army built and painted by Dave Taylor, Thomas Wynn, Jawaballs, Ron Saikowski, Mister Justin, Mik and Mike & John from Santa Cruz Warhammer.

Sounds like a good deal to me!  Head over to SCW and donate using the widget in the upper right hand corner.

This is a great cause and a fantastic chance to win what is sure to be an awesome and unique army. This trooper has made his donation; have you?
