Okay guys,

I deliberately let the thread grow for a while so I did not spam it too hard. This is my own post before I go about hosting. Firstly, here is some music:

My pledge:

è Work on my batch of Ogres (Ogors, specifically the Gutbuster faction for Age of Sigmar).

These are 4x Iron Guts (armoured Elites), 6x Bulls (standard ogre, which is to say powerful monstrous infantry) and a Butcher (gut magic wielding ogre mage/butcher). I have my son this weekend as well as social obligations which means that my free time outside of those will be dedicated to hosting as my hobby time will be at a premium. That and I do not like having sharp tools, glue, and spray paint around and out when he is up to visit.

è The second part of the pledge will be to work on the little forum post mini articles I posted up last week. They need work. My week was flat out with training, friends, work and car stuff.

(1)  Favourite historical genre for wargaming, and if you don’t, and I pushed you for an answer, what would it be?

(2)  Science fiction or Fantasy, and why? This could be movie, RPG, board game, computer game or tabletop related. You decide.

(3)  What mainstream, acclaimed thing have you never gotten into or liked?

(4) What brand and colour of paint are you fond of using lately?

(5) Name something random and obscure related to gaming you like and feel is under appreciated. It could be a computer game, little known company, or anything that takes your fancy.

My Answers:

1.       I’m not into historicals. I do have a K47 army. If someone put a gun to my head, I would say Ancient Greece and Rome, purely because I love that period of history. It just seems so cool; warfare in the ancient world where myth and gods were part of every day life.

2.       For me I change. Sometimes I go through a phase. Purely for the whole questing and the hobbit and lotr flim trilogies I will have to say Fantasy just about wins out. Though I love sci-fi. There is so much good stuff out there, and that all extends into tabletop.

3.       NCIS. Rubbish group of TV shows.

4.       Dryad Bark, a citadel base paint. Better consistency than Rhinox hide as a brown basecoat, which I find odd at times. Boring but practical for wood and leather as a basecoat and anything else one might need. A handy little paint.

5.       I would not say its obscure or even underrated, but I do not think Arcwrolde from Warploque miniatures does not get half the exposure it deserves. I might do a few articles on this. Im tempted to set up my own youtube channel too on gaming.

Ok, time to divvy out points and respond to posts. Not quite in that order.
