There used to be a small number of players up Battlenet and Duncan still sells it, he had most of the new stuff when I popped in yesterday.

Also think Starwynn will be stocking more of it, probably to partially replace their GW stock which they've stopped selling.


Yep, last time I dropped in they said that they're waiting for the warmachine 2.0 release to fully roll-out with the new starter box and everything before they start stocking it.

I'm still too crazily busy at the moment for gaming.. even the evenings aren't clear... but I will be taking a day off to go to the Eastern Front show in a couple of weeks. Anyone else going?

OK chaps I've picked up a Cygnar battlebox for Warmachine, expect to see me when I've gotten my hands on updated cards.

Don't forget that Warmachine and Hordes are completely compatible with one another. Gives you a decent number of factions to choose from.

edit: @scarletsquig, I'll probably try to get there.

Well i had a look in Langleys and there isn't any Warmahordes stuff in there.

@ Formosa: Hordes has Warbeasts which are monsters as such. Specially if you want to play Minions as they have giant crocadiles and turtles as Warbeasts. Warmachine has Warjacks which are esentially giant robots.

I went in there the other day, and there was.

Anyway, does anyone want a game of firestorm armada next week? Not tomorrow, but the week after. I bought the starter box of dindrenzi.

i like the look of the mercs, are they a playable faction?

Cool. Oh, and a few questions about the models. Do you make them yourself? If so, then what glue should I use? And how breakable are they? (Judging by the Dindrenzi models, they look quite fragile.)

didrenzi are very solidly built, hard to break.

You do need to assemble them (unless they're Aquans which are all 1 part models), usually the models are either all resin, all metal or a mix. You should use super glue for them.

I can't imagine you'll be able to break them that easily the resin that Spartan use is similar to the stuff Forgeworld and Privateer Press use rather than the soft stuff GW use for the Finecast range.

The only thing you really have to be careful with is the flying stands which can be fragile but that's not an uncommon problem with any model range.

Do you mean magnetise the ships to the bases?

Basically put a magnet in both the flying base and the ship, this in theory will let you keep the model securley attached to the stand whilst keeping in removable.

Annoyingly that wasn't possible with my Sorylian fleet because the models are notoriously unstable.

EDIT: BTW I've printed off a whole load of extended character sheets (more useful than the basic one IMO) and the rulebook FAQ for Dark Heresy.

OK, my and james are wanting a game. I presume there is going to be enough tables for this, but how many tables are going to be used up by the warmahordes players?

Probably not, since I'll be sorting out Dark Heresy for you lot (character creation) and playing Warmahordes (first game), I really doubt I'll have enough time to get a Firestorm game in too particularly since I'll be turning up late.

BTW as I mentioned on Thursday Martin should be coming with me to check the club out. I'll only know for certain this evening when I leave work.

Doesn't look too bad, not sure we really need our own forum just yet afterall we've only been going for a fortnight.

I do have 2 issues though:

1) I really think that using Mantic's Warpath logo is a bad idea. Don't need a cease and desist or people signing up incorrectly now do we.

2) Dude your sig is obnoxious, a better way to advertise the existance of the personal forum to club members would be to put the web address on all club documentation and put a link in the first post of the thread (alex will have to do that).

It wasn't so much what it said, that kinda made sense. More the enourmous size that was shouting at me.

EDIT: You might want to at least mention the club name and location too.
