Weekly Waffle #80
So game night again for this weeks weekly waffle but we didn’t actually get a game in. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago the miniatures for MERCS 2.0 had finally arrived and this was my first chance to get a look at them. Now I have to say that I had been managing my expectations after seeing the civilian models in the Recon box. The Kickstarter was essentially two games with Recon being more of a board game and 2.0 being the next evolution of the existing game. After looking at the miniatures it appears that they have looked at the lowest quality they could get away with…

No game night for this week’s weekly waffle#Site Title #Post Title #Site Title #Post Title and with no overnight trips for work I’ve actually managed to crack on with a few different hobby projects this week.

I cleaned them up and primed them straight away and then they sat there waiting for something to happen, mainly because I…

It’s frankly been a little bit depressing. So I’ve been sitting down to get some painting done, in this case an Italian fleet from sunny Italy whilst it’s cold and rainy outside. And I’ve ended up just sitting there thinking that I just…

Weekly Waffle #68
To start off this week’s weekly waffle I have two game updates for you. Me and Al got together on Saturday for a re-match between his Union and my Butchers. To be honest from my point of view I wish we hadn’t bothered because I got an absolute tubing. The score ended up being 12 – 2 to the Union. For me it went wrong from the kick-off with getting players in the wrong position, then the dice gods deserted me and I never recovered. At one point I was rolling seven dice needing two three up’s, and got none. On the positive side of things it was a win…
