Baccus 6mm diving in

Well I took the dive, and ordered me up some 6mm Baccus Greek. I am planning on getting some Warmaster Ancients going with my friend. As for bases I ordered from Renedra their 40mm x 20mm plastic bases I like better then laser cut wooden ones. I should be able to use these for other game systems also.

I hope to have them soon enough, if this goes well and builds out nicely I will order another army after this one is done.  Though this is a long term project I hope to have ready by christmas.

Some of my build out info for a 2000pt army.

1 stand of 24 figs, 3 stands to 1 unit of hoplite 72 figs.
      I need 17 units hoplites, so that is something like 1224 figs.  =O

1 stand of 10 figs, 3 stands to 1 unit of Greek Cavalry.

more to think about for setup for other units will be added to this at a later date.

Warmaster and A Call to Arms Star Fleet

Trying to relearn the rules from not playing it in ages . Took the pics from my terrible cell phone, I forgot to bring my camera to the game store. Got a few games going last weekend.  Hope to see more playing of these games soon enough.

Played a small 1000 pt game to try and relearn and teach the game to my friend. I ended up losing, I think it is because he was using my trusty Dwarf army.. =P

The new look of Armchair Adventurer game store

It has been ages since my last post, but to start once more in trying to make time to post here is a look at Armchair Adventurer, a game store bought and sold to a new owner who has done massive improvement to the environment.

Google Map to the location, come down and play!

If you want to do a walk through and see how much space there is to play please do make your way down there. Also there are two full size tables 6'x5' one 5'x5' and I believe a 4'x'4' to get all your gaming needs in.

Google Map virtual walk through

Support your local store where you play by spending money there and bring new people into the hobby.

As for terrain, I have loaned out some of my terrain for use at the store as has others, please use and take care of these items.  =)

Warhammer Diskwars - Last weekends game 7/19/14

This was a first attempt to learn the rules and play. The game is pretty fun I hope to get more games in this weekend.

Richard debating his move

So many errors on rules were made, but hey we just unboxed the game and tried to learn it as we played. After reading more online and the rules, this week should prove a more challenging weekend.

All Quiet on the Martian Front - AAR 7/12/14 (Game 1)

Using the starter box, I played the US, while my friend played the Martians. Playing the intro mission where the Martians have to escape with one Tripod. Though I had put on both weapons for the Tripods, we only used the Ray Gun.

Deployment, Hiding to avoid being hit on turn one.

Attempting to run out with an infantry unit, only to watch them die.

Martians make a break for the left side of the table.

I move to intercept with my bikes

Moving my forces from my right to my left to cut off the Tripods

It got pretty funny with the machine gun on the Bike unit made the first Tripod explode, then causing damage to the second one who also exploded.

What happens with one tripod explodes and kills another one.

Game was called, human victory!

Got my order in for "All Quiet on the Martian Front"

Quick build time!!! I want to get a game quickly on Friday or Saturday.

Here is a size of an Assault Tripod next to an HO scale building. To think I almost ebayed the lot of buildings I have in HO scale.  =)

I almost have all three Assault Tripods done, I will do a lighting kit later so I will not glue the top on till I get the lights in.

Poor Imperial Guard Tank. ((insert sad face here))

Had a fun game of 40k on Saturday, no objectives were used and pretty much we just fought to the death. The last tank standing at the end of the game got swamped till it died to Plaguebearers.

There were a few back and forth turning points in the game, where it could have been anyone's game. But in the end I turned the tide after finishing off the infantry. This was a 1000pt game and hopefully we will get a larger game in.

I so truly need to make time to paint my army. I need a good motivation to get myself going.
