Writing up some rules for 1/72 scale combat, inspired by the thread in this forum. I'll post them for C+C and potential playtesting when they're done, and I'm looking forward to trying them out.

Anyone with too much time and a collection of Airfix models (come on, we've all got them) feel free to give it a shot. Any feedback appreciated.

Now off to playtest it, a small skirmish in the streets of Cardboardgrad.

Got a few games of Infinity in today, along with a few the other day. Made me quite happy since I've had the models for a while but haven't had the chance to use them.

It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.

I'm probably going to assemble some more DZ terrain, and possibly chip away at cleaning my first marauder strike team.

I finally went to my parents today to restock my gallon jugs up with water. The fish, coffee pot, and my paint station can all be happily filled up now and I can paint again!

So naturally I am going to play some video games. Well maybe after some painting!

I had a blast and one of my opponents now says he doesn't want to play anything else and the other (who was proxying some of my models) is now looking at getting his own

Today I am finishing up the gold on my two Cygnar Warjacks that are on my desk. I did the blue months ago and it feels good to get the gold on there. It is starting to look like a finished kit now.

edit: and starting the cold steel color also! Forgot I had a pot of it!!
