Battletech is still awesome.

And there's a War of Reaving book coming in the not too distant future, so that should be interesting.

My purchases from both Bitspudlo.com and Maxmini.com have shipped!!

I also made some painting progress on my models.

My Limited Edition Studio McVey sculpt, Ar-Fiach, arrived and I am delighted to report that it is in good order with some flash on the seam lines which should be easy to clean up.

Very fine elegant sculpt, only hope I can do her justice.

Absolutely thrilled

my lgs started a month long tourney and me and my mate won making it 4 all between chaos and good, 40k.

also finally got my wraithguard in the ost

Got my first large commission. Over a hundred models on the first go around, pretty nifty. Also I broke my record on fastest time for a finished model. Lots to paint!

I picked up a Yu Jing team from Infinity, I love the models can't wait to paint them, now if I could just find my basing material.

I also picked up and assembled a real class act of a model. The talos/cronos. Not only is it beautiful, but by far the best directions of any model I've gotten from Games Workshop. No more assembling 4-5 parts simultaneously trying to figure out how they go together. And the parts are separated onto different sprues, almost exclusively, I think the "talos" side of the sprue had only 2 parts for the cronos on it. I also picked up some scourges, but haven't gotten to putting them together yet.

My Daemons are 4-0-0 against Grey Knights

Good news for eeevil!

I've been playing a few games of Dystopian Wars, and I'm really enjoying it.

Spartan Games has also just released their ground forces starter boxes for Dystopian Wars and they are awesome.

I painted up a batch of USX Deep ones. Getting the last minute stuff packed up and getting ready to move still.


I have found things that King Tut would be proud to call his own in the process.

Gathering up more free stuff from Drive thru, and looking hard at that laviathans game. Interested in that Dystopian wars, and Smog. Going to get more in depth in that when I get to the new place.

With all of the other stuff I have going on, gaming is pretty much on hold for a few weeks.

Forgeworld released the Astral Claws bits last week.

They kick serious ass!

My knights from Rusted Heroes should be here tomorrow. Thats all ive got going right now...

Oh, in last week's battle tech game, I finally got to lead our scout squad (4 light mechs) as we touched down on a new planet.

We were attacked, but I didn't lose any of my men and I captured a 60 ton mech (mostly in tact). So, that was fun. Not bad for my first command. Now, back to the rank and file as we deploy in full force.

It's my birthday in less than a week. Want Dark Eldar.

Also, I came up with some background and rules for three minor 40k races.

Went to UK Games Expo, great day out.

I bought;
Go with the Flow - Great Game! suggest this to anyone.
Chaos Maruaders - the GW licenced game by FFG, not played it yet.
Mars RPG setting for Savage Worlds - looks interesting, I love pulp sci-fi.
Runebound expansions - 6 expnasions for £21, good deal, and I do like Runebound.
Purple Meeples - my grilfriend always complains about the lack of purple meeples in games.
40K Ork Nobz - I trawled the show for minis and this was the best buy. Great minis, wish I'd bought some of these sooner.

Really enjoying my gaming right now. And our recent Rogue Trader RPG games have been great fun playing as Ork Freebootas. Love the 40K setting, really getting into Games Workshop games now. Can't wait for the Necrons to get a new release. As I saved some money at the show I'm really tempted to go down Games Workshop tomorrow to see if anything takes my eye. Really getting the itch to buy a Baneblade so I can make an Ork Skullhamma

Have finished GCSE maths

Just bought the entire Relics line, and I'm REALLY looking forward to havin a go at the game as well.

Have a Gepanzerte Panzergrenadierkompanie on the go for LW FoW

Also have a Heavy Gear Starter workin it's way to me.

And I'm in the middle of building and painting some old WEG star wars figs for fun, man I love those!

I've got Castle Ravenloft incoming tomorrow and I've got a week of vacation that I've so far spent painting Elysians and Valkyries.

its the start of my weekend, so i have time to chill and paint some chaos marines

I lost for the first time with my guard tonight. It felt great.

Something wonderful just happened to me. I just picked up FW's the Anphelion Project and all three Seige of Vraks books from a charity shop for £80! I saved £75 and the money I did spend went to charity! They're all in good nick, apart from a little wear at the edges. I'm so chuffed, I'm practically a steam train.

My girlfriend gets +100 girlfriend points for spotting them.

Just shook hands with the mall, paperwork coming tomorrow. Moving the store from a 2000 sf space to a 5000sf space by July 1st.

I'm thinking 20 gaming tables. Lounge and snack bar in the back room.

Mikhaila, where is your store? I'd love to come in some time.

The first of my pre-embargo orders arrived:

1 box of Possessed Marines. Silly split orders...

*sigh*

Ah well. Maybe the rest will arrive today.

I won my first game of Necromunda in 12 years the other night. Flamers for the win... and also built and *nearly* finished painting a new command squad, a vanguard jump pack squad (with some lovely maxmini bits and pieces) and an all-lascannon devastator squad for my mighty Minotaurs.

Just outside of Philadelphia, near a little town called Media, PA. The store that's getting the upgrade is on Route 1, in the Granite Run Mall. Have a second store up by Villanova University, in Bryn Mawr.

The possessed obviously rolled 'infiltrate' as their random power and made it through the embargo quicker. The rest of your lads are still dodging through the barbwire and spotlights.

Heheh.

The ironic thing is my friends order to GWUK, made after the embargo came into play, arrived at his place today. Me? Still waitin' for the rest.

Getting my first Infinity minis this weekend
