a pursuit of fruitless endeavors and endless refinements

Getting On Base

I’ve already talked about picking up the Dojo Assault set from Warlord Games’ Test of Honour game.  I had a chance this week to put some things together and progress towards getting this game off the ground.

Stop Humping The Laser

Last weekend I got a chance to use my Laser again in another Dropzone Commander game.  This time it was with some friends in a three-army free-for-all.

Walking Dead Wednesday (Evening Edition): Pit Buddies

Alright, so with my new Sniper variant underway, I wanted to break for a little bit before hitting up my next session of The Pit.

This time, we’re going to throw in another twofer (Pit be hungry, yo) with Billy & Ben.

Walking Dead Wednesday: More Bang For Your Buck

I know I do a Wednesday Walking Dead update but Mantic’s Blog is dedicating a whole week to Walking Dead: All Out War so go check it out for previews on the Wave 4 releases and hopefully some “beyond Wave 4” news. Wave 4 isn’t the only thing getting showcased this week as I have version 1.0 of my first AI enemy for Walking Dead ready for use:

A New Test

I finally bit the bullet and picked up Test of Honour from Warlord Games.  Well, not all of Test of Honour, just this interesting side set based on ninjas.

Photo Session: Bat Signal

Russ Spears’ comment on my Laser reminded me that I did grab a cheap Batsignal off Amazon for my Batman Minis Game. It works really well and I decided to mess around with some photo setups.

A City In Need

Fully Armed And Operational

Last week, I had completed the customization of my Aegis Orbital Defense Laser for Dropzone Commander but I hadn’t completed the painting of it yet. Since it was to be used in a game later that weekend, I had to get it done and I thought I’d share the final model.

Walking Dead Wednesday: Family Day At The Pit

Thanks to Facebook poster, William Cuthbertson had an interesting suggestion to run a parent/child combo into The Pit. I liked the idea so I grabbed Morgan and Duane and started to set them up.  I soon realized that this Pit session wouldn’t be complete unless the whole family was involved.

Mrs. Morgan wasn’t expecting the spotlight so she had to go under makeup.

The campaign coordinator had us bring our Aegis Orbital Defense Laser so I was glad to finish mine up for the game.  I’ll have final pictures of that up later this week but for now, on with the game!

Resistance! In! Spaaaaaaaace!

Just a quick little note on Dropzone Commander’s sister game Dropfleet Commander: TTCombat (who bought Hawk Wargames late last year) has gotten their webstore up and is celebrating by releasing some of the show exclusive models early.  In there store, I stumbled upon this beauty:
