Hi!
Mojarn, I quickly realized that when you amass primarchloads you really need help with the painting. Otherwise its a hopeless proposition to paint it all yourself.

I did a quick count of my Marines and Eldar.
The Eldar have 10,885 points. However, the move to EpicA has hurt me quite a bit. There are lots of "Extras" that can not be used in complete formations. My older formations do not translate well into the new EA list. 
I need to trade/get a few more items to complete some of the listed formations and I could be in the 14,000 range.
Marines, I am at 7,900 points. In this case, it is my smallest army. Now to be fair, I did not count the Titans or Aircraft again from my IG. However, I could shift some of them over if needed for a Marine game.
So with the IG (that with the last package have 38,775), Eldar, and Marines I am at a measly 55,760 EpicA points.
Now, I have not done the Orks yet. I need to reorganize them and then do the count. I expect them to pass up the Eldar for the second place slot.

Thats quite a bit, Dafrca.
So, you have a guess for the total ork count?
I'm guessing about 13k....
...we'll see how close I am...

Too be honest, I do not know, but I am curious to see now.

I have completed my count of the Orks...
First the bad news:
Total Points of 9,230 
Ok, now for the good news:
One of the boxes I thought included Orks was some older Marines. I forgot I gave some of my Orks to a friend who was just starting out doing Orks.
The adjustment to EA hurt both the older Eldar armies and the whole Ork army. I had some of the older stuff that now just counts as "Battlewagons" or "Big Guns". 
Combined with the give away from a year ago, it drops the orcs to last place.
Also I am in major need of Grotz. Now I *have* to finish my rice grotz. Because of a lack of minis, I miss out on 18 free grot stands.
I took some pictures last night and will try and post them tonight.
So, this makes my final point counts :
IG: 38,775
Eldar: 10,085
Space Marine: 9,400
Orks: 9,230
Total Collection usable in EA: 67,490
Now there are a few things I did not count for various reasons. I did not count the Mega-Gargant (No EA point value) or the two Imperiators (same reason). I did not count the marines or Eldar that are still on sprues. I did not count the 3 Old School T-Hawks (flying Rhinos).
But anyway, there is my grand totals. ?
...for now... ?

Hi Dafrca - same problem here with lack of pesky grots...grumblegrumble. I'd suggest Basmati.

I agree. Even those who think they have a small collection might be caught of guard at the point totals.
I told a friend what I was doing and he said he thought he had about 4-5k in his SM. It turned out to be close to 10k.
I think it is even more of a shock if you have collected up some of the "large" units, like titans for example.
