1. Mostly it’s not good or even bad. Mixing genres doesn’t really tickle me. I like on genre over another for a reason

Can you expand on the answer and site why? Conversation, points and all that 😉

2. As long as the miniature is only a different sculpt (Just cosmetic) it’s fine. But when they get special rules it’s bad (pay to win)

You prefer them being alternatives but still same normal old rules? Are there any companies that do this well?

3. No. Mostly because I rarely play group games. Either it’s a one on one, all against all, Big Evil against rest of the players or coop. I could see that happen if I were to play in a group tournament. But that really isn’t my cup of tea either.

Group tournaments sound silly. Never play coop even no? Not your thing?

10 points for posting so late! I wanna hear more about your thoughts on the above, so points pending, and extra points too!  

1. Do Crossovers in mini games work?

That’s a different answer I was not expecting. 25 points. Senior Massacre is the infinity dude who is kind of like Deadpool?

A lot of people think the Kharadrons are Squats in 40K.

2. Are convention exclusive miniatures a good or bad thing in your opinion?

The Scalper Dance eh? Never heard that phrase, I like it. 10 points. 15 for the answer.

What is Chortle? I am not familiar with Mantic.

3. Have you ever become mildly annoyed, ranging to infuriated, during a group game?

I think family, regardless of it being a board game, have that effect no? Grumpy or wise? 15 points.

10 for the pledge.

Apologies are not necessary, chill out! This is not a job. Though under article 114 it is technically a militia if the Decepticons ever invade…

Flames of War eh? Nice. How big is the German army? Whats the old idiom? If it looks good from three feet away then its fine?

I think with a big project having something fun about the painting or basing is the key. Or good tunes or tv to bingewatch while you do it to make it even more fun an activity. Or maybe that just works for me.

10 points for the pledge.

Sounds like you have a nice method planned out that will leave awesome results.

Questions

1. I saw a DC comics thing crossover with… was it the power rangers? And Star Trek the Next Generations with both the Xmen and later Doctor Who. Hard pass. I think there was even Batman and Elmer Fudd at one point, which was actually good and quite dark, apparently.

20 points.

2. 10 points.

3. 10 points.

1) Somthing with quality components as I’m going to spend time on this. (Some of the KS is not of a high enough quality to warrant the time – and I dont think I’m being snobby taking that stance, it’s just I think it would be disheartening putting that effort into somthing with poor casts and cheap card)

2) The game has to be fun and atleast allow me to simplify it a bit for the family to get involved.

3) An underlying IP that’s not too adult in its theme.

So a quality dungeon crawler or possibly I’m thinking the Harry Potter stuff from Knight models could be a good challenge for this?
