I hear Dave has come up with a 6th faction for DZC – the Hangover Faction – slow to get going at the start, vicious in close combat when their slumbers are disturbed and they feel an awful compulsion to eat junkfood… 🙂
Can we see closeups of some of the painted armies please?
Hope all playing today have a great day and good luck!
