I'm saddened that no-one has mentioned the newest two "Future Freedom Fighters" yet. Very nice renditions of members 8 and 9, I'd say.

"Ask ten different scientists about the environment, population control, genetics, and you'll get ten different answers, but there's one thing every scientist on the planet agrees on. Whether it happens in a hundred years or a thousand years or a million years, eventually our Sun will grow cold and go out. When that happens, it won't just take us. It'll take Marilyn Monroe, and Lao-Tzu, and Einstein, and Morobuto, and Buddy Holly, and Aristophanes…then all of this…all of this…was for nothing. Unless we go to the stars."

Ah, I thought that I had mentioned them in one of my previous posts. Oh well, I never watched the series.

Presumably, at least that was what was alluded to in the comments section. If they're already sculpted then there's no use in holding them back until the new year (well unless they have a really big Christmas related release).

The December Newsletter is up.

You'll have to look at the .pdf for images (once again I can't be bothered tearing it up). But anyhow, the news.

7TV
Upcoming models:

Starter Sets!

Blake 7 inspired Federal Security Guards
Five ARC Moonbase crew members
New Daughters of SHIVA
Department X is to receive a cast next

Come March "The Beat" will also be getting models

7ombieTV:

Vlad's Army
We've finished writing a new supplement for 7ombieTV expanding the horror genre to cover everybody's favourite fanged fiends - the vampire. We chart their secret history through the ages as they clash with the military during the confusion and bloodshed of war. This bloodsucking expansion covers new vampire and military archetypes and the brave vampire hunter. Plus we have three new scenarios pitting military casts against vampires in very different wartime settings, followed by a three-part campaign reproducing the classic Tea-Time Thriller serial Vlad’s Army, complete with unique casts and special rules. Out in the spring.


Otherworld Fantasy Skirmish
Final layout is complete on this 124 page retro RPG inspired rulebook. It's packed with over 70 profiles, rules for dungeon exploring, magic items and spells and includes glorious art from Dave Needham, Paul Gallagher and photos by Key Dallimore. The Otherworld lads are just preparing the crowdfunding campaign which is hoped to launch in the next few weeks.


Hmn, I may need to sift out some of my White Wolf books for that 7ombieTv expansion...

OP updated, crap, at this rate I might as well pass the torch to you.

Bit sad that Vlad's Army has been pushed back to Spring next year.

Ah, but as has been proven, I'm just fantastic with catchy titles...

Yes, it is rather. I guess them being a bit of an indie company its a given, but I do feel that they've been neglecting that expansion rules wise a little (though by that I mean they haven't release an update in a few months, which compared to other companies isn't too bad). Still, yes, it would have been nice to have had it out for Halloween, or Christmas, which would have been an excuse to theme games somewhat, but I suppose "it'll be done when its done" doesn't irk me all that much.

There we go, the offer still stands though!

And yeah, just sad that it has been pushed back, but with good reason, as the chaps always deliver good quality stuff.

I got hooked on those shows.

Life on Mars is friggin awsome. If you can get Chris and Ray, we're going to go in and roll with that lot. Get me about ten of the rank and file coppers, and we're really going to have some fun.

(Whoever that Clownshoes was that made that U.S.version needs to be curbstomped.)

Second was the Girls school irregulars. Those are awsome. I'll be gathering up a few of those, as well.

I gathered up a Carl Kolchak figure, finally. He's got his camera, and I ended up arming him with a revolver. ( Baseball bat might be a little overboard with the camera in the way.)

Any way you could pop out a Z files not Mulder and Sculley?



At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money.

Well here's Crooked Dice's facebook page, and the 7Tv community page that they frequent. They're pretty good at communicating, so you could always bounce the idea of them.

Heh, or I'm just on their facebook page and have nothing better to do at that time in the morning than repost their crap here.

...Wait, that does sound rather like the main qualifier for keeping one of these threads up to date. ^^'

*Edit

Eugh, this is becoming a bad habit. Here's the promotional shot that the previous one resulted in. Are those Sinbad esque models from their 7Th Voyage line?

I am serious though, I hardly have the time these days to get really stuck in and I'd rather see someone passionate about it continue sharing the Crooked news instead of some humourless jerk.

Well, though I do keep this thread updated, actually putting my name to it would actually thrust the responsibility on me. Which is to say, yeah whatever.

January's preview.

Like I said, I'd rather have someone do it who plays and loves the game as much as I do, so if you would, me love you long time.

Oh that's fair, though would you rather we waited ten days until the new year to create the new thread, or just send one of the mods a pm to do it now? Best that I wait until Crooked Dice make another update and then send you a PM so that the thread has some actual content (with waiting until that update actually contains some decent content to add a bit of beef to the new thread's first post). Over thinking.

Though in doing this I will have to demand six healthy sheep or your first born son as payment of service.

Hmn, I suppose the title of this thread may need to be changes to Crooked Dice/ Ocelot Games new releases, as the latter seems to be using them as a distributor. Anyway, Crooked Dice re-posted this on their facebook page on behalf of Ocelot Games.

Coming in 2014: not one, not two, not three, but four new Grandville Miniatures!

Sculpted by Andrew May, we present nasty-piece-of-work Mad Dog Mastock and three armed killers in stylish long coats.

All models come with separate heads, to give you more opportunities to pose your Grandvillains as you wish, or even to swap heads around.

Nor am I ( I may have been a little bit sick in my mouth when I seen that badger in a dress), but I suppose it must appeal to someone and is at least light hearted.
