Non update

I got NOTHING done last night… I got home and crashed on the couch… made dinner, Ange got home from her spinning class at 6:45 or so, so we had dinner, cleaned up, watched a bit of TV, while I drooled all over the Forces of Warmachine book and that was that.

But on a good note, I actually have a game scheduled for Saturday against Jyggdrasil… This should be interesting cause I haven’t played in over 3 years.

It’s a 35pts game… I have enough Cygnar to field that, but most aren’t assembled and now missing tabs, so I can’t even play with them unpainted… Menoth it is… hmm which caster? Good ol’ pKreoss? the HR? Feora? or should I try one that I’m not used too? I’m looking at you Amon and Reznik!

On an other note, I’m also having lunch with everyone’s favorite Necrotite Bunny today… cause SOMEBODY is all needy and stuff and NEEDS his bases…

Pretty…

So decided to take an extended lunch today and drove out to the Wizard’s Tower to get my geeky little hands on the new Forces of Warmachine: Cygnar Force Book…

I have to say… I didn’t like the idea of Codex style books, but wow, it’s a nice book, great art, cool themed lists… can’t wait to get home and start reading it

This is why I’m in charge boys!

So I was working on Stryker last night…

And while waiting for some ink to dry, I started the prep work on my trenchers and noticed why the leader is the leader…
You can see he’s REALLY excited to be there.
Compared to his limp companions

Now, I’ve seen all sorts of mis-cast, mis-shapen, or bent pieces before… but that was a bit too funny

man I hope Wizard’s Tower or C…

man I hope Wizard’s Tower or Comic Book Shoppe have new the Cygnar book and Kara Sloan in tomorrow

A Painting we will go…

Spent a bit of time painting last night… and I’m having a blast working on the alternate pStryker, it’s a real fun miniature…

I’m going with a typical color scheme, but at the stage I’m at now… I could really just clean it up, do the little details and call it done…

But, Coleman is the signature man in blue, I’ll be adding that tonight. I decided to place him on his (almost completed) base for this picture.

Also, for those curious, here’s a pic of the bases.

God I hate CSS… blech :P

Things are moving along

So, I actually got ahead of my game this weekend. Surprisingly since I did alot of non-Gamer Journal related gaming stuff.

First, with the Journal news…

I have finished all the bases for the list I finally came up with… oh? What’s the list you ask?

  • pStryker
  • Reinholdt
  • Defender
  • Stormblades
  • Min Trenchers

Stryker, well cause I like the Alternate Sculpt mini… and I actually used him in the past… Reinholdt, as much as his abilities are useful, he’s mainly there to fill in that extra point.

The Defender is there for many reasons… with some Khador and Menoth opponents, I’m sure I’ll be facing quite a few heavies, and he’s got the stopping power and has the shock hammer to do some cortex damage.

Then I had to take the trenchers as I just love the look and theme (and will add to it),  yes, they’re really expensive… and kinda squishy… but can’t I go for aesthetics?

To add some melee power, I added a unit of Stormblades.

So far, I’ve primed Stryker and started painting his jacket, finished the bases for everything, primed the stormblades and painted the metal bits… I still have to get some smaller rare-earth magnets in order to assemble my defender and have to find a reinholdt.

So, as I mentioned, I did a lot of other gaming related stuff this weekend… well Cangames is coming and I figured I should start work on the tables and terrain while I have lots of time… so I went to various shops around town and got materials I needed…

I completed a few linear obstacles for one of the themed tables… rows of crates and of ale barrels.

I also cut out enough rivets for a few of the buildings I’m making.

All in all, a pretty good weekend
