I'm sure infinity isn't for everyone but it sounds really fun in theory. I know there are tons of cool boardgames, a fact I hope to explore soon, the mantic ones have fun models for me to paint though!

If the nids stay sold I'm not desperate to hock the rest... slow winter project.

Ok, so I lied. I'm *sort of* desperate to hock my extra armies. I kind of let myself go on Bones 2 (not nearly as bad as Deadzone, mind you, but still much more than I had planned for!), and I sill want a decent "get most of what is offered" sized MA pledge. Its ok though, all that means is there will be plenty more random fun stuff for the blog around september (sniped an early bird woo) of next year. Stuff like Khanjira the world breaker, a gargantuan behemoth said to weigh over 4 pounds! Not to mention a boat load of smaller fantasy minis and even a few sci-fi pieces that are likely to tie in well with deadzone. Woot! Borrowed these from the kickstarter page, all I can say is amazing:


HOLY BALLS!


For $35? Are you kidding? I'll take two! That's enough fantasy scenery to cover a 2x2 section of a board with some random bushes or rocks thrown in. Or more than that, I forget fantasy games usually use less terrain

I went to the "Game Day" at the local library. I guess the guy who runs it is a gamer and he and his wife are doing a monthly thing. It was mostly kids playing a myriad of standard/classic/typical board games, although this month they had a couple from the pathfinder society who were running a pathfinder game. It was interesting (got there too late to start, so I just sat in and watched). I don't think I managed any wargaming opponents though. The guy in question does play Miniatures games but along the tune of historical stuff like ww2 and various others. Oh and X-wing, of all things. Oh well, at least there are gamers of some kind here in town .

I haven't been real motivated on my Knight Sabers for whatever reason. I know I was checking bones every few minutes to watch the total soar, and I'm hoping with a little more attention span I'll get the sabers done before deadzone hits. Its not skyrim, although I am clocking a few hours there, just too lazy to get downstairs and crack open the paint. In an attempt to shake things up I'm going to start work on a diorama/terrain feature to use with my eventual mars attacks board game. I'm going to make one or more clusters of skeletons in various un-graceful poses and paint them red and green ala the 90s movie death and heat ray victims Maybe even an iwo jima memorial style flag raising (just not as successful obviously...).

I'm gonna use old GW vampire counts skeletons since they're plain and fairly easy to work with (kind of ugly but meh). I thought about using a few of my kings of war skeletons, but they're completely inextricable from their fantasy/medieval components. They are a really nice set of sprues though! A lot more truescale than the old GW skeles (can't comment on their new set, don't have one), and there's quite a bit of detail on the kits. The double bladed axe with a gem where the blades meet the shaft especially is so cool, as are all of the gnarly evil looking blades of the revenant sprue. Since I haven't got any pictures of progress yet, check those out till I do

NOOOO! Bones claimed yet another Soul! When will it end?! WHEN?!


haha, glad to know you are that excited with the Mars kickstarter I really want to see those skeletons, they really sound fun

Meh Bones is awesome, especially since I paint more than I play lately. I got some of the skeletons cleaned up and ready for posing, but it was late and watching Dredd was easier

Gah Grimdork, why you no post updates! Still been busy with kickstarters =/ Been having "fun" with the rollercoaster that is the MA pledge total (up and down up and down, its kind of wierd... maybe even foul play a bit on the part of some mean spirited not-backers), and I discovered something else fancy to use with my incoming deadzone minis:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1621774283/battle-systemstm-sci-fi-modular-terrain


Sure, its paper (card, actually, 1.7ish mm too) and not sweet sweet hard plastic like my DZ battlezones... But look at how cool it looks! And those consoles and tables and the like, those would be perfect for use with my DZ tiles, especially since I didn't bother nabbing any of the excellent resin Antenocitis workshop stuff they offered. The only real drag is the ideal pledge level (would cover a 2x2' area, with multiple levels and loads of goodies) is pretty hefty, they said something like 4+ kilograms (which I'm told weigh more than pounds! forsooth!), and the shipping across the pond brings the total pledge into the $150 range so I'm a little iffy on the whole thing. Still... the terrain layouts you could do with that stuff would be super awesome for Deadzone games and Infinity too!

Another thing that got brought up when I was looking at all of that Battle Systems stuff... Do you see the bases they've got their guys on? Maybe? Look close if you don't How cool is that!? I think I'm fairly in love with clear acrylic bases. I just wish I'd made that epiphany *before* I invested all that time to implement custom bases for my warpath stuff. I may still rebase them though... I just love the idea of my guys always looking like they are where they are. Hobby store only has green grass tables? Hey look, my guys are on green grass perfect! My city bases would look funny, but these are the perfect accessory anywhere

So yeah, went ahead and ordered some of these from Litko:


200 something, and some 40mms too for the big stuff in Deadzone. It may or may not be enough, technically, but I'm not going to paint all of my DZ stuff *that* quickly. So I may go ahead and re-base my corporation stuff while I'm waiting. On the fence.

It may be the second week in December now, but we're still only a month or so away from Deadzone madness, getting excited!

Still trying to get myself to work on those skeleton dioramas and Linna, but if nothing else I'm just saving up steam for winter in the Deadzone

That scenery is freakin' awesome: consoles, air ducts, generators, damn, so many details! It looks damn good for Infinity!

Really, 200? You don't joke around, if it's time to order, you order like a boss

Yeah, I'm trying to shift some funds around to afford two strongholds, 2x2' x2 would give me a 2x4' interior, maybe some warehousy stuff outside on one or both sides of it and you'd have a rock solid (and awesome) infinity quasi-interior board. But its kind of expensive (but only cause i've spent so much elsewhere recently ).

On the bases, well my double sweet spot deadzone pledge is gonna have me getting somewhere in the 200 model range, not to mention re-basing my 66 other mantic models. And thats if I don't get the 80 zombies for $45 deal in the DZ kickstarters second survey

Plus, I ordered so many primarily because a.) they came in a 100 pack for $15 so its not exorbitant by any means, and b.) it costs $7 to ship anything from those guys, so I'd rather ship nearly $50 worth of stuff for $7 than $15 worth of stuff for 7 several times

Subbed. Will be back later to check things out.

Woohoo, its always nice to have visitors, especially those who have such awesome projects of their own

I think there will probably be more interesting things to come hereabouts, than have already passed, but, its been fun documenting my hobbying nonsense and sharing it with Dakka

Nice call (and find on where to get) those clear Litko bases. I'm really in two minds about stuff like that, though, as I've got a pretty "standard" kind of base I use for my minis, which keeps them all consistent within my collection. The only outliers are the D&D figures that came with the boxed boardgames (Ravenloft, etc) which I've done in dungeon flagstones, and the desert bases my Orks and Tallarns are on.

I was going to do everything (even deadzone) in the same base style I've been doing. But then I saw the clear bases on battle systems. I was in love, it had to be done!

My one reservation is that I've gone ahead with 1.5 mm bases instead of 3mm, which has two potential drawbacks. First, I'm not entirely sure what they'll look like on the table. I'm hoping they're extra dissapeary, but we'll just have to see. And the difference in height is a small issue too. Its only 1.5mm, but certain opponents may get complainy about it. Oh well, I don't have much time to game so I just have to avoid folks like that

Another slight concern, I ordered the bases on the 3rd, and my status for them is still "in production" a full week later. I don't think it should take too long to laser cut 225 bases should it? Probably just some form of back log, they do seem to be a large-ish supplier and all.

As to hobbying in general:
I'll see about popping in for an update later, the most hobbying I've done in the last few days (aside from watching mars attacks and battle systems grow) is to get 10 d8s and 3 d20's from the "local" game store. I also picked up a Knight ForScale (err uhh Garrik the Bold, if you wanna be that way) to try out bones before my kickstarter shipment arrives. I'll try to get him done before deadzone shows up

Certain opponents? Really? I thought that level of bitching was pretty much contained to people who enjoy being nob heads on forums like this. You're also predominantly basing WarPath/DZ models on them, I assume, so things like TLOS should be even less of an issue (and work both ways, even if it were to happen). I mean, I based my Mantic Ogres on GW bases, but that's both out of habit and wanting consistency for that force, since it's largely made up of GW models.

Yeah, I don't anticipate any actual problems, I very rarely play as it is. Its more a concern if I was right in picking the thinner size, and I'm pretty confident it will work out. Gotta show off all of that pretty scenery that should soon be in the mail!

BTW folks be sure to check out Azazelx's blog here on dakka and the proper one standing out on its own. Pretty good stuff... kinda want some of those mantic ogres for myself.


Now... if I can just get the little one situated... got a date with the hot glue gun of destiny if I'm to knock out a passable DZ board in time for tomorrows gaming!

Alrighty, I got a *barely passable* deadzone board knocked out, but it was all I had time for. I cut into our play time printing and cutting out the faction decks and mocking up counters... so we only got in one game. First impression, I'm stoked, this is gonna be awesome I *can not wait* to get my Deadzone stuff and get started. I'm gonna go take some shots of the board and the counts as models we used. I would have taken pics during the game but I was too busy looking up rules and abilities (only got one brief read-through of the rules).

In other news, I'm out of kickstarters except for this one, and my motivation for playing Skyrim is kind of petering out. So barring exhausting work days, I should be hitting the modeling grind stone again soon. And I think I've found the perfect thing to do with my time before deadzone gets here!

I'm going to be participating in Skalk's Junk Pile Modeling Context, see it here. Even if I get put into one of the lesser entrant categories, I do not expect to win. But, it should be fun to give it a go, and its not like I'll be building something so huge it will ruin my storage space. We aren't allowed to post up WiPs on Skalk's page as per contest rules, so you can see what I come up with here first

Gonna see about recovering my hobby situation after playing Deadzone today, hopefully back with some pictures after a bit.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Gah, too tired. Going to read and go to bed instead. Pictures forthcoming. I'm on it. Just... tomorrow or something

Eh, yours is petering out, me, I'll likely attempt to give it another go Just need to find some mods for the hair styles / face / body I like.

Glad to know you enjoy Deadzone that much, I guess the wait was completely worth it!

Best of luck with your competition, terrain is that one thing I don't even consider attempting. Not that much of a fan

Oh, and give us those damn pictures

Tonight on the pictures if I'm not exhauseted... Mondays have a way about them...

Ehh, I *could* get more mileage out if sky rim, but I'll be glad of extra hobby time instead.

I like terrain a lot, though I'm not particularly good at it . This should be fun. Though, my not-artist status is gonna get me curb-stompped by the vets and those riveter guys for sure

This blog is a bit of an inspiration to me, because you're doing stuff that I could conceivably do with my resources and time. It's helped get me back into painting and stuff in a big way. Unfortunately, I need to work on my photo set up and how I'm finishing my images- so far I'm getting pretty dodgy shots for a lot of work so I am not comfortable committing to a blog here until I can manage better photos. But due to your smashing the goals for your do or die, mine turned out well!
I got:
30 Mantic Zombies
20 Mantic Ghouls
40 Mantic Skeletons
2 Balefire Catapults
5 Revenant Cavalry
Morgoth, Vlad, a Banshee, a Wraith, a Revenant King and a "Zombie Hulk" painted and 20 revenants based properly.

The paintjobs are all definitely purely tabletop quality, less even than my usual middling standard, but I'm pretty pleased with myself for getting them done.

Anyway. Sorry to hijack your blog to talk about what I'm doing, but your blog was somehow the direct inspiration for my flurry of activity. So cheers!

Hey, GD, sounds like you have a serious challenger. Are you gonna leave it like that, or are you gonna show who's boss with MOAR painted minis?

And you, Mr. Boss. no excuses with the photos, we need to see them pretty miniatures (btw, here's an article hosted on dakkadakka for taking said pictures http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Debunking_the_Myths_of_Miniature_Photography )

@Da Boss, screenshot or it didn't happen Nah, sounds like you've made some nice progress though! I've just been doing the blog here to keep myself motivated and all of you guys chiming in has really helped. That I've, even in some small way, contributed to your own hobby motivation is awesome! And don't worry about talking about your stuff, your stuff is interesting too If you do get some photos, give us a link! My favorite thing to do on dakka is browse through folks' P&M blogs, slowly growing an entertainment/acquaintance network for mutual inspiration and entertainment value

Seeing your undead may prompt me to paint some of my own , I've still got 40 skeletons and revenants from my starter box sets, and one box set worth of ghouls and zombies too. Not to mention all of my GW undeads! I've also got some bones 2 coming that should really help to flesh (relatively speaking...) out my undead character selection

@TDL, Just wait till my deadzone stuff gets here, I plan to paint the everliving hell out of it I may even take a break after painting city terrain and so many individual models to do some undead unit bases

I'll post some hobby related stuff later tonight, *if* the baby goes to sleep at a reasonable hour.

Alright, photo dump time


First, here's Garrik the Bold, aka Knight Forscale, the mini reaper uses to show you how big their other minis are. He's actually kind of tall, fairly true scale. Decent mini overall, looking forward to painting him. Also, bones is cool cause hew as $2 instead of $5-7.

Now for the DZ game... Please bear in mind that I chose minis based on size priority and not painted status Also, I drew the grid, and cobbled together the terrain in a couple of hours the night before, so try not to be too harsh


Initial placements, cover cubes, and unit types. I had the plague in the blue corner, my opponent had the enforcers. My mission was careful slaughter, I got a single point (10 to win) for killing any enemy unit, and 1 point for each round I kept my team alive at half strength or better. After the game, I determined that my opponent also had a VP mission (though he got more points for expensive targets).


My deployment closer up. Note the HMG gunner's prime placement on the dismantled space laser tower. The guy chilling out on the bottom left got a crippling mutation and was pretty gimp, so he was hanging back.


Here's what my opponent came up with, not sure I would have done the same, but luck (on both sides) and the flow of the battle cost him the game worse than this initial deployment.

Here are a few more views of our initial deployment:





Target saturation, lots of mutant scum, but only one missile a round.


While the beefy 1st gen charged right up the building in the mid-field, these two 2nd gens swarmed around for a flank attack!


Meanwhile, the crazed mutant 3rd gens made a more cautious advance along the ground level, following the hellhound (mutated with extra claws ) and supported from on high by their HMG 3rd gen. Note how the big guy isn't standing so tall over there?


Here, you can see the effects of the withering hail of lead from the HMG. At this point, it had already claimed the other rocket launcher enforcer by suppressing him to death!


One of the enforcers found a grenade in a loot crate and promptly lobbed it indirectly up at the way-too-close-for-comfort 1st gen. While unscathed, the beastly beast was pinned and would have to spend an action shaking it off before he could get back in the fight. Note how the enforcer captain's eying the beast from his roof, what could this human have planned?


You call it n00b t00b, I call it Pro Pipe! That sneaky enforcer captain used his suit mounted grenade launcher to chuck another grenade at our poor first gen (who at this point, had been pinned by one grenade, and had already been injured by a missile earlier on). The hardy plague beast was unable to resist the knockback effect this time, and went flying into the walkway! Unfortunately (especially for the plague dog below!), the 1st gen's size meant he couldn't stay on the walkway and had to fall to the ground, nearly crushing the poor hellhound beneath him!


Final plague positions


Last stand!

Worry not, retribution was exacted! The hell hound recovered and used its razor claws mutation to injure (and subsequently finish off) one of the rifle enforcers in a deadly rooftop struggle. The other rifle enforcer got eaten by a second gen as they swept left towards the building on which the Enforcer Commander was encamped. The hellhound and 1st gen tried to team up on the enforcer captain but he's really tough to kill! The captain dropped a bomb at his feet killing the hound and pushing the 1st gen back, though this opened him up to a double team by the second gens who finally cut him down! And I'd say in half at that! The final roll saw the captain with one survival success against SEVEN 2nd gen fight successes! There were some exploding d8's I can tell you

The game took longer than it should have, due to inexperience with the rules, but I know I had fun. I'm pretty sure my buddy did too, but we'll just have to see what we end up playing next I really really like the rules for Deadzone, its a fun game. I wanna get some experience so I can better comment on how fast the games can go, and try out some more unit types. I feel like this board had enough scatter terrain to keep people from getting an inordinate amount of clear shots, although I think I would like to inject a little more vertical variance in my boards once I have my actual DZ tiles.


Plague MVP and runners up! I'll explain

I had a lot of good performances this game. The first gen was a terrifyingly horrible monster of doom, which is good, cause he cost more than double anything else I brought. I got a mutation that makes the mutant agile (faster) which helped cancel out his weakness of being slow (can't sprint or climb, moves roughly half as fast as other models can for the most part), so he was really able to rush up and provide some early pressure. And then he just refused to die. He ate at least two rockets and 3-4 grenades and just kept fighting! The hellhound gets an honorable mention for being an excellent target for the razor claws mutation. It didn't make him quite as powerful as a 2nd gen, but he was killy enough to take out a heavy rifle enforcer later in the game ( just over three times the dog's point cost!). Before the mutation, he was taken to fill points and serve as a distraction, but with it, he was a credible threat. And then there's the HMG toting 3rd gen... He suppressed one of the rocket enforcers so hard the enforcer got riddled with bullets behind his cover and fell over dead. I can't remember if he got the second rocket enforcer or not, but he pinned at least two other units over the course of the game, and he has the same cost as the regular grunts My dice ge an honorable mention too. I got 7 successes with those babies twice that game, and both on times I rolled no more than 5 dice to start (if you roll an 8 it "rolls up" and lets you roll another dice!), definitely keeping this in the rotation even when I get my deadzone set.


Enforcer MVP

This guy is hard as nails. Technically he's just as tough as the 1st gen, and arguably a little squishier due to having more armor than toughness (armor is much easier to bypass via weaponry than tough), but his 3+ (on a d8) survival stat makes him near impossible to bring down without a heavily concentrated effort. He can dance around in combat with a dedicated melee unit for days, unable to inflict damage whilst surviving, but super hard to kill. And don't get me started on his friggen grenade launcher. He was punting my guys around like rag dolls with that thing! And he still had an armor piercing rifle had he found the opportunity to use it. He costs almost 3x as much as an enforcer, and they're almost double a standard fighter, but with the right support he can be a monster!

Wheee! So, kind of odd putting up a battle report in my P&M blog, but its fairly incomplete and mostly just there to let you see my hastily built board and choice in proxies I don't think I'm supposed to start building my terrain piece until the 15th, so I'll have to find something else to keep us entertained until then

That terminator must be used even after you have the official models! And he must be named "Cpt. Awesome" because from what I read, wow, now that's a real Chuck Norris!

The game sounded seriously fun, a true "Last Stand" scenario with the humans selling their lives as expensive as they could.

So, I'm curious, was that just "cinematic", or do you really have rules for "fall" damage? Can you do strategies like "If I blow up the bridge, the heavy mutant falls down and maybe kills X"?

There are at least 3 properties that involve a push:frag, blast,knock back. There are indeed rules for falling damage, more per cube fallen, and there was a specific note about large things hitting walkways in the way down but being unable to stay in a square smaller than them. Oh and also for being slammed into wall by explosions and falling onto other models .

Its all very fun writing, especially when you consider that I fully intend to put together at least one board with 4 or more vertical levels and tons of walkways.

At the moment there aren't any rules for destroying terrain... at the moment

Cool battle report! So the Plague get random mutations? Seems like it plays SOMEWHAT like a very streamlined Necromunda.

Here's a link to a showcase thread I put up for my undead, more pictures in my gallery too.
Apologies for the artefacts on some of the images- I think my attempts to fix them in Gimp made a couple worse!
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/560734.page

Yeah, there are 8 mutation counters. You randomly draw 3 and must assign them, 2-3 are bad. The mutations are random each game even in campaigns.

I think DZ is more like necro-lite or infinity-lite. Its a great gamewith ttactical depth, but not as many mini-rules or sub actions. I could see some people not digging the simplicity but I think its quite awesome.

Cool stuff BTW, will have to look closer on my PC at home later.

Simple is better in my opinion, if it's something I might get the girlfriend to play if she can get over the silly models and sci fi elements.

Seems like it'll fill a pretty big hole in the market. GW are really leaving money on the table by not going for a small skirmish game like this!

I prefer simple as well, especially when it doesn't weaken gameplay or depth. Just cause there are so many complicated rules in Infinity (which I also consider to be a pretty neat game) doesn't mean another game can't get away with less and still be way fun Hoping to drag my wife into the hobby someventuday, and it will have to be on the lighter side for sure. Maybe I'll get her to try Mars Attacks .

You know, I thought I had heard of some kind of skirmish game that was supposed to be coming out by GW. Maybe just groundless rumors though. I thought the 54mm inquisitor game was neat but it felt kind of like an older archaic RPG system, too complicated and using models that didn't size up with anything, and especially not my overflowing tubs of GW bits =/ So maybe they come out with something, maybe not. I'll have plenty of deadzone terrain to use if they do, and if it doesn't suck I'll definitely wait for it to come out and get some informed opinions on it, after getting the 6th ed rulebook and more recently the SM codex, and kind of regretting both in the long run... looking to be more patient with purchases from GW.

You... you manage to play? Games? With your figures?

I'm jealous!

I know, right? Don't worry it'll probably be a other month or two before it happens again.

On the bright side, skills junk pile contest is now underway and my acrylic bases have changed status to ready to ship. Not sure why they didn't just ship them then, but its better than seeing them stuck in production limbo!

Alrighty, just a little bit tonight.

Boring stuff:
I forget if I mentioned that I was getting a little antsy about my bases still being "in production", well now they are marked something like "ready to ship" or whatever. So there's that, not sure why they haven't shipped already but who knows, maybe I'll get them later on next week, or surely the week after that. Should be at least a week or two before Deadzone by the most optimistic outlook on that arriving. Wife and I finally got the car situation sorted, so the daily A to B should be less of a hassle, and now we're sizing up another rental house that's got a little more space and a bit more of a yard for Madame Babyington. So depending on when that goes down, hobby stuff may go a bit wonky for a couple of weeks, but after that things should resume normalcy as I'll have pretty much the same space (better here, worse there, overall the same). That shouldn't hit until after x-mas though, and it's still fairly tentative, and really, it's fairly doubtful my activity here will be interrupted very much so it hardly bears mentioning

Pictures:

Choices for the basic size of my junk pile contest entry. Gonna take the 60mm round, I think, for what I have planned.


And here's my pile of junk that I intend to fashion into a smaller, more directiony, pile of junk

My rough idea right now is to use the 60mm base to size a piece of the tiled plasticard to serve as the base of my pile. Then, I'm going to take the large metal-wire-thing slightly to the left of the center and place it towards the back end of the plasticard disk. Then I'm going to take basically everything else and arrange it as if it's been sucked into the hole in the middle of the big bit. Like a portal, or some kind of super magnetic experiment gone horribly wrong. I think I want to cover the back bit with a flat piece, either black, or colored like a glowing portal. If I do the glow, I probably have to do a bunch of fancy OSL on the junk going in, and that's preeeety far out of my comfort zone. Plus, that's more like an objective than a junk pile. If it's inactive, that better supports it's being a junk pile. So we're probably going that way. The difficulty, and fun, of this will be getting everything crammed into the main bit in a way that suggests it was sucked into the portal with incredible force and then the portal lost power mid-vortex. The trick will be in conveying a sense of destruction and movement in that one direction, while staying away from it looking like I just "crammed a bunch of bits into another bit and called it a thing".

A parts list you say? Why not:
Plasticard, .5mm, 1mm, 1mm 1/6" tiled
4 sizes of plastic tube
guitar wire
floral wire
green stuff
microbeads (rivets)
foamcore board
large metal thingy out of a coffee grinder
triangular bit in center, also out of grinder
several small computer bits, a few wires, coil thing, a couple of plugs, a temperature/speed gauge
a couple of unidentified plastic bits (round thing bottom center-ish)
project bricks (prepainted styrofoam blocks up by the greenstuff)

Enough of that. I was going to get started but now I'm too tired Gotta get some sleep before Madame Babyington decides it's time to be up all day =/
