May 2015 Progress Report

With all the hobby and gaming stuff arriving lately I've been trying to find ways to keep myself motivated. The mountain of 'stuff to do' keeps growing at a rate faster than I can manage. Keeping that in mind I started keeping track of the stuff I am accomplishing each month. A lot like working out, writing down what you did can help one maintain focus as you move forward.

May Progress Report

 - Painted Martian Dreadball team (this included building 2 custom players out of the Mars Attacks wounded markers)
- Built two packs of gas lamp posts for Batman Miniature Game
- Stripped and began repainting base game figures for Guardians Chronicles
- Stripped and fully repainted Heroclix Vindicator (Heather Hudson)
- Painted "strumpet" figure from Reaper Bones line
- Built Commissioner Gordon GCPD starter (4 figures)
- Built Corrupt Cops GCPD starter (4 figures)
- Fixed massively busted UNA Fire Toad for AT-43
- Built second token pack for Batman Miniature Game (including two custom Riddle tokens)
- Built booster figures for Batman Miniature Game (Alfred, Batwoman, Police Booster 1, Police Booster 2, Copperhead)
- Base and prep cowboys from Reaper Bones line (2 figures)

So as you can see there has been a lot going on behind the scenes here. A lot of these items haven't been shown on the blog but they will appear when they're fully painted and their bases fully finished. It's still helpful for me to note it all down however, as it's all progress in my eyes. With the huge flurry of model construction coming to a close I'm looking forward to sharing more painted figures soon!

Haha hence why I'm trying to keep it from feeling like work.

Occasionally I do post some WIP images, but not often. I'd rather spend the time building and painting than take photos of them. It often takes me a week or longer just to post about stuff I've finished! :)

The Coming of Galactus FAQ

The Coming of Galactus Frequently Asked Questions Compiled by Paul Ross, with contributions from Dave DeLaney, David Harris, and Edwin Teh Last updated November 16, 2007 1. Applicable cards in this set are legal for sanctioned Constructed tournaments upon release. All cards are legal for sanctioned Constructed tournaments except Planets and the Galactus avatar. 2. Epic plot twists Plot twists with version Epic can’t be negated. 3. Opposing and friendly Opposing cards or effects are those controlled by one of your opponents.

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 ...
