What I Built In February

For some strange reason I got it into my head that I was going to build as many figures as I could from my awaiting lead and plastic pile in February. I still haven't had a chance to set them up for photos but it's finally on my to-do list tonight.

Anyway here's a quick run down of what I was actually able to put together. I was pretty happy with the total!

- Deadzone: Enforcer starter pack (12 figures)
- Deadzone: Plague starter pack + bonus models (17 figures)
- Project Pandora: Veer-myn squad (10 figures)
- Project Pandora: Corporation squad (10 figures)
- Dwarf King's Hold - Ancient Grudge: Ghouls x7, Dwarfs x2 and Elves x2 (11 figures)
- Sedition Wars: Keegan, Dekker?, Jade Lily, Akosha, Vade and Dead Space dude (7 figures)

So in total it looks like 67 models put together in February. I've also primed the Deadzone figures, so I'm actually doing pretty well with getting that game on the table to some 'figure out the rules' games.

I'll be slowing down that pace but I do want to get the rest of the Sedition Wars figures built and primed, as well as the rest of my Deadzone models. That will likely not all happen in March, because I have a special project on tap this month. I can't say any more than that until it's finished. Once I get that off my table I'll return to my ever-massive to-do list!

Pictures of the Deadzone models I've completed will be following a little later this week, along with my thoughts on them so far.

Yes indeed! I didn't realize how much progress I had made until I totaled it all up. I kept looking at the half dozen bags of models in the deadzone box and just dove in one evening after work.

Although I prefer to play my games with painted figures, I also don't want to wait months and months until I get to try them, so at least having then built and primed I feel like they're usable. Still lots more to do though!

A Spot of Fiction: Part 3

Outside, the two searching figures slowly return to the main building. As they approach the light from their flashlights reflects off of the building and their shapes resolve. They're wearing simple, nondescript military style uniforms and armed with automatic weapons. One of them snarls at the other, "There's nothing out here except coyotes, dirt and wind. Besides, if I were in charge I'd have come out here and checked it out myself!" "Yeah right! If you were in charge we'd all be dead already Carlson. That door was rusted shut, I'd bet money on it. Ain't no coyote cracking it open like that," says the second guard. They pause outside the door and turn off the flashlights and he digs a pack of cigarettes from his shirt pocket. Lighting up a cigarette he offers the pack to his companion. "So if it ain't a coyote what the hell was it? Nothing around here for miles!" "I don't know Staves, but I'm not taking that...

Errata Discussion

Here's my first-ever joint article! Thanks to Scott Mooney for providing counter-point to my ramblings. Following the release of Marvel Universe and Marvel Evolution there has been a lot of discussion among our player group (and online) about the powers of certain cards, both in terms of sheer power and in terms of wording. I'm sure most of you are familiar with the debate brought on by the 3-cost, Exiles-affiliated Blink. We'll not be discussing that particular card today, but rather some other combinations you may or may not have thought of. Scott has built a very deadly Starjammers/X-Factor/X-Men deck that takes advantage of discard effects and Energize to lead to an amazing turn 7 combo using Cyclops, Astonishing X-Man and Havok, Proud Son. This combo can stun an opponent's board if they are unable to pay the discard required by Havok's ability. It is especially dangerous in a multi-player format and brought up some thoughts on designer intent versus the ...
