My sig lists about a 1/3 of my armies (I have a lot) when i collect an army, i overcollect it. Also, they are all painted.

i just started a marine army, so soon it will three, soon... soon

For the most part i have my armies designed for a 2000 point game with some back-up units to add variety. My guard army is truly vast and varied but primarily Cadian models.

Space marines (7000+)
Legion of the damned (2300)
Imperial guard (10000+)
Drop troops (2200)
Dark eldar (2500)
Tau (2300)
Tyranids (3000)
Witch Hunters (1000)

Orcs (2200)
Tomb Kings (2600)
Empire (2400)

Heh, I decided I was done collecting when I counted and found:

3,000+ points Empire army (can be 4,000 with upgrades and magic items)
1,500 points Salamander Space Marine Army (only one of the three vehicles is painted, the other two are still in the box)
2,000 points of Orcs & Goblins (at a stretch, in coop with my brother)

Lying around, left by a friend who rather thouroughly lost interest: 2,000 points 5th edition Bretonnia army (maybe 1500 points or even less in 7th ed.)

With the release of Codex:Space Wolves, my only complete army got taken down for an overhaul & repaint.

I have 750 pts of Empire painted & assembled, but there's a bunch more to assemble and even more to paint.

0:

About 2000 points of Space Marines that never win a single game, and less than 1000 points of Tau, which I have yet to paint or play.

I have two little tiny Ultramarines and Orks done, but my Death Guard is in box-form right now.

1.

Just the 1, 1500 Lizards.
Currently working on Dwarfs, Space Orks and Ogre Kingdoms.

I got

Space Wolves - 2700ish
Tau - 2000

I curse school and my lack of painting time. None. But 2000 points of SM, primed, and about 500 of SOB, not primed, and Maybe 800-ish VC, being assembled.

Well I have about 3000 pts or so of each: Tyranids, Space Wolves, Chaos Space Marines, Chaos Daemons, and Warriors of Chaos.. I always tweak with new plastics and new dexes..

I haven't really finished any armies. To be honest I'm not a fast painter and I have only two fully painted (sort of finished, but more gave up half way through but I have still painted what have got) about 1500:1000 goblins and gondor in LOTR.


I have a LOTR morgul/dol-guldur army that is half painted, not sure what points but it has 148 orcs, necromancer, and a deadly selection of morannon/mordor orcs with a task-master and drummer and a gothmog, mumak, bout' ten captains, normally used with bout' 30 goblins a captain and a balrog,

and a lot more.

1500 quarter painted 40k orks.

I want to start cimson fists sm.

Tau M'au'tan'd'oo Sept FTW

I voted five. Theyre not complete in my mind as i'll add more units but theyre all tournament size.

None, but mainly because I never paint and often move from one army to the next before they're finished. My SW are my closest to being finished as all I have to do is paint them (all 3000 points).

2500pts space marines
3000pts high elves
2000pts choas well nearlly done they all need paniting

Dark Eldar ~ 4 - 4.5k [Painted for Gaming]

Howling Griffons / Crimson Fists ~3500 (2k / 1.5k) [Painting for show/Gaming]

Orks (Bad Moon) - ~2 - 2.5k [Painting for gaming (currently temporatily abandoned)]

Tau - ~ >2k [Painting for show (CTA)]

Fantasy goblins and wolves next, then probably Chaos SM

1 WoC that will grow in due time. Just need to figure what to add next

40k Orks 7,000 painted
Empire 10,000 painted

Apparently I have 0 "complete" armies,as I continue to purchase things to add to them.
I do however own about 4000 pts of Orkz and roughly 8000 points of Death Guard (maybe more).

I have to give a + to all of the people who said that no army is truely complete.

That being said, I have one "comlete" chaos demons army that I can play as a mixed force or as a themed tzeentch or themed nurgle list. Maybe that means three complete armies? I don't know.

Working on painting and collecting a slaaneshi contingent and starting a tyranid army just as soon as I figure out what direction to go with them.

Zero

1000 pts of space marines and I'll consider them a complete army (but still with room for growth) once I have 1500 all painted up. I will* finish them this summer.
I guess my AoBR orks can be counted as an unfinished army.

*Certain exclusions apply.

I own at this moment about 3k of VC, 3k of O&G, ~3k of SM, and 1850 of Deathguard

I've got two completed and painted armies,

Space Wolves @ 4,000 Points
Imperial Guard @ 2,000 Points

I'm also working on a modular Apocalypse Iyanden Eldar army consisting of both the Spirithost formation of 20 Wraithguard, 5 Warlocks, 2 Wraithlords, and the Sunhost with 5 Fire Prisims. SO many layers of yellow paint!!!!! ARGH!

I voted 3. I consider them complete @ 2000 pts. I have about 40 more Orks to Paint, then all 3 will be completely painted (see Sig).

I Have a few WIP armies that aren't at a playable size yet.

I 'used' to have a complete necron army, but then destroyed the destroyers (haha, in your face!) and got rid of some of my crappy converted immortals in order to give them a complete makeover into a bunch of cc necrons. My chaos dwarfs are nearing completion, just the obsidian guard and half of the gunners left! + a huge night gobbo dogs of war unit.
So current completed armies: 3/4.
current almost-completed-but-then-destroyed-the-whole-army-because-when-I-bought-the-battleforce-I-thought-it-was-a-good-idea-when-it-wasn't armies: 10+

I will define "complete" as "not too many broken figs fielded and can usually get everything on the table without proxies".

Lessee...mine in 40K

- IG
- Orks (if I just glue the battlewaggon back together again....)

Counting the ones I helped the kids' buld and are thus available for use:

- DE
- Eldar
- SM
- Necrons

Fantasy:

- High Elves

Historical:

- Carthage
- Late Roman/Early Byzantine
- WW2 USA (plus some Italians)
- WW2 South African

(For the history buffs the SA 6th Armoured Divn fought in the US 5th Army in Italy, which also had the Italian Royalist troops on side - allows you to use British, US and Italian kit on the same table)

What is more scary though is the realisation that (after this survey) is the "to finish" list is large:

40k
- Tau
- Chaos Space Marines "Lost and the Damned"

Fantasy

- "She Who Must be Obeyed" Lost World/Darkest Africa (plays as Dark Elves in WHFB )

Hstorical:

- Normans (will also be used as Bretonnians in WHFB...)
- Seven Years War French
- WW1 Greeks
- 1890's Pre-Dreadnought Brits, French & Russians fleets

Nothing painted:

40K:
Tau - 1500pts - Complete for that points level, not truly completed.
Chaos - No solid list sizes; lists vary from 500pts to 2000pts but it's far from a complete army.

WHFB:
Lizards - 2000pts list of models I have, 2500pts in list form only; incomplete.
WoC - 1500pts in list form, 1000pts list of stuff I have; far from complete.

None, my BT crusade is pitifully small.
