Reinforcements arriving Sir!

After the last post Faeit212 posted the latest round of DA rumours... I'm excited... realy excited

So Dark Vengeance came out, duh. As a long time Dark Angel player I was like woohoo...

Not so Woohoo at the price of AU$ 180 about 80 pounds or US$200 and of course there is the kerfuffle about the Limited Edition Chaplain... Well of course I wanted one... I did do investigations and for an extra ten Aus I could buy a limited edition for 164 from my local non GW store called Tactics instead of waiting a week and saving 10 guess which won...

But what about the people who...

Some weeks are just fail

Things tm have not been going according to plan such as wallet theft and what not... I hate what not...

Hopefully this will not continue with my next campaign fight this time vs the Tau.

Fly casual but not too casual

So I said I would write something about the campaigns.

Fantasy Battle Campaign postscript

So my gaming group had a second Warhammer fantasy battle campaign based on Mighty Empires.

The 6th Ed First FAQs are out

If you didn't know the FAQs came out for every army I'm concentrating on Dark Angels as that is what I am playing this campaign two bits that are interesting.

Nothing you can do about bad dice rolls

I haven't been posting because my birthday was Friday and I've been busy all weekend partying, playing warhammer and watching anime with cute women, frankly awesome and made some new friends.

So I managed a draw on Thursday night, high elves vs orcs and goblins.

On the eve of war....

So two ancient Codexes going to go hammer and tongs, on Saturday morning. I've never tried pure(ish) the Black (ravenwing) they've always come a distant third to Bone (deathwing) and Green (Tactical and so on) mainly I didn't have the figures and to be fair Ive never seen the need.

My first impressions of 6th Edition (old Post) Jul 2012

My first impressions of 6th Edition note I’ve not played a game yet and I’ve only thought about it from my two main armies Dark Angels and Orks.

The differences between warhammer fantasy battle fourth and eighth ed. (old post) Dec 2011

The last article was about getting back onto the painting wagon this one is about the differences between Gaming in Fourth ed WFB and Eighth Ed. Apparently there were radical changes between 7th and 8th ed. but I didn’t play any of the intervening editions so I can’t comment on the intervening rule sets.

Getting back on to the painting wagon (old post) Dec 2011

Disclaimer Now heading into the second campaign there are more than a few of us getting back on the wagon and even second generation kids who are getting into this for the first time, so anything I write in this article is based on personal experience and may not be right for you. Some of this stuff may be blatantly obvious to some, which is fine I don’t mind this isn’t aimed at you. The campaign(s) that inspired this burst of painting and articles is using the Warhammer Fantasy Battle 8th Ed and Mighty Empires, both GW products. Also I’m going to mention Games Workshop (GW) and their products predominately, not because they are better or anything, it’s just what I have and used. There are many different ranges of paints and brushes or even models you can use in your wargaming. I also talk about non GW products as cheaper alternatives again not because they are better but its what I used because I can not afford everything I want.

Battle report (old) Warhammer Fantasy Battle High Elves Vs Dwarves 8th edition Nov 2011

Praise Khaine by Nic and OB
“You want me to what?” I asked incredulously. Prince Bel-Tarion looked at me pitilessly.

“It is simple; I want you to take the tower. No more, no less.”

Breaking Bad (behaviour)

Its not about the TV show I've never seen it but I thought it was a good title for this entry again about the tabletop wargaming.

I have several gaming friends who are young gamers who are just starting out (relatively), one in paticular who has been playing for a while but had "Bad Experiences TM" and he is showing signs of wanting to win by any means necessary including some bad behaviour assumingly picked up from other bad behaviour ppls. So I'd like to show him how to play the right way (for me its about Having Fun TM and Learning Experiences TM) but....

Getting Started or mission statement

So its a new blog, this time dedicated to gaming and entertainment in general. When I say gaming I mean wargames, PC games, tabletop role-playing games, board games, Iive action role-playing and anything else I might have missed. When I say entertainment I mean television, movies, books, music and anything else I might of missed.

This blog is intended for me to explore the breadth and depth of my hobbies and their peripherals, actually now I think about it only some of my hobbies. I have others that will probably make a guest appearances, history, science and mythology and anything else I might of missed.
