@mage it’s geeky and you dig it. I don’t have any interest in Pokemon but you do so if you want to post about your raid crack on mate 🙂
The arm is still a bit off – more odd moments of the feeling going in my fingers (sounds worse than it is) and if I move it suddenly – say to catch something i’ve just dropped – it really flares up. Should just take time though 🙁
Well I’ve been wanting to kit-bash some Fallen for a while so decided to give it a go 🙂
Never really felt the urge to paint Gundams. kind of for the same reasons I never really got into the Transformers customizing scene when it is really like the perfect Venn Diagram of my interests. 5 because you always need multiples of Grunts. I’ve got a clutch of the Astrays from Gundam SEED for the same reason (that and they look badass 😉 )
Coldfront looks pretty great to be honest. I dig these intro boxes as CB really give players a decent taste of the Infinity experience (admittedly I brought both the first two Operations when they came out but only played my first game of Infinity last month, but still…). Certainly got me motivated though – I decided to get some of the Infinity minis I’ve had on the go since, oh, before Dark Imperium dropped….
Anyway, here from Aleph are a converted Ekdromoi Hacker, a HVT and an Agema Marksman.
And a shot with some of my previously painted Steel Phalanx.I really do need to adjust the bases at some point…
@limburger yeah, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy’s Doctor’s were both hampered by their runs getting positively crapped on by the bods in charge at The Beeb (just one man apparently, the name escapes but he absolutely LOATHED Who and did his damndest to kill it dead). Both have been far better served by the Big Finish audio dramas by all accounts.
@biggabum well Fallen Dark Angels. I dig the idea of using them in Kill Team using either Loyalist or Traitor rules as the mood takes 😉
@warzan , it does appear some pictures are failing to upload correctly, especially if done in bulk
Built some Nomads I’ve been waiting to get more bases for – had a minor panic last month as Antenocities no longer listed their 25mm Landing Pad style and that’s what I’d based 50 + Nomads with >_< . Luckily it was just an error during the move to the new website.once advised they were up the following day 🙂
And this is going to be a bit of a tangent but I’ve recently gotten back into playing Transformers: Earth Wars on my iPad. it just tickles me that you can have a squad comprising Optimus Prime, G2 Optimus Prime, Rodimus Prime, Optimus Primal, Ultra Magnus and Star Sabre. Yes, I am a giant nerd for Transformers 😀
Sooooo, Matty loves Saga. In all the games we have played over the last couple of years I have only beaten him once. He refuses point blank to upgrade to version 2 because he doesn’t want to jinx his winning streak. Out of the window went our planned game of Dropzone Commander and in came Saga (Matty wanted a McDonalds and figured he could con me into buying him one by beating me at Saga).
The battle was on.
I tried something new by putting my Warllord out on my flank with no protection which tempted Matty into placing a Warrior Unit and a small Sling armed Levy unit out on the same flank. However it was a ploy and on my first turn I moved my Warlord back into the safety of my Heathguard units, leaving both his units a long slog across the board to get into the fight. It also meant Matty’s central units were outnumbered.
In all honesty, Matty played well, and after the first couple of turns I did think it was going to be another drubbing for me but a timely use of “Intimidation” (prevents a unit from activating) I was able to delay His Hearthguard for a turn and it gave me a chance to pull the game back a bit.
By the last turn matty played a sneaky move on me, activating his Warlord twice and getting into Melee with my own, removing the fatigue he got from the double move with one of those pesky Viking tricks from the Battle Board. Fortunately I still had a trick of my own and gained a single extra attack dice which luckily was enough to get me a draw in the Melee and force him to withdraw into move range of my only surviving Warrior unit.
In my turn I charged his Warlord with my Warriors, hoping to put some fatigue on him to give my ,now in range, Hearthguard a fighting chance. Luckily for me, my Warriors were enough and managed to kill Matty’s Warlord…. although it didn’t save me from having to buy Matty his Big Mac……..
