Okay, this is going to be a little different from the 'Random BS Thread', in that I'd like to keep it to just general chatter. If the post would appropriately go in a forum area (for example talking about your army list, or discussing painting tips) then put it in said forum area, either as a reply to a topic or just start another topic.

The random rambling thread of impossibility to keep up with is just not good for the database or for keeping things organized enough to find something to later reference.

Thanks!

(ps - if there's something in here that has an area, I'll try and stay on top of moderating it to it's own thread at first to help out)

I don't wont to live in a world without random BS thread mark "something"....

never had so many watchers on ebay auctions as i do on my heroclix auctions

my 3 heroclix auctions brought 140 bucks, huzzah!

looking to spend some money on mini market in the next 10 days.
was thinking board game
really cant decide wtf to buy

Super Dungeon Explore!

Or is that not available there?

its been top of my list for a while and yeah they have it.

not wanting to put together 70 miniatures for it
and knowing if i do put them all together ill want to paint them
and also knowing i probably wont
is kinda putting me off it lol
plus apparently the rulebook is shitty with poor translation and im not looking forward to inevitable rules disputes.
i like 80% want it, but am afraid the 20% im hesitant about might kill it and make me regret buying it.

pretty much the same story for
cyclades
claustrophobia
ghost stories
dungeon twister
etc
etc

blind board game purchases are just such a gamble. id hate to have another box sitting in my bookcase never getting played and collecting dust

i could get it for 60 bucks
but thats twice as much as ive paid for any boardgame before.
i think thats another reason im hesitant.

I could help you assemble it if ya want.

I kinda dig the idea of a painting contest. Each of us takes a miniature each week, assembles and paints it, and then shows it off. Not for prizes, just to have fun with it. Fun way to get all the mini's for the game painted.

Kinda like a "Tale of X Painters" kinda thing? Maybe a little peer pressure could get us motivated.

I'm not gonna go for it today, what with being tired from working last night, but tomorrow I'm gonna try and test my metallic green scheme on something for my Khador.

I'm working on assembling / reassembling everything for my armies this week, getting back to working on painting next week. I think I'm going to paint my Circle first actually, since I think I can probably finish the entire army in a week, two tops. The color scheme is incredibly easy for em..

I've finished assembling my new warjacks, completely magnetized so that the 2 of them can be all 3 of the new jacks, as well as the character jack. I'm working on rebuilding the original warjacks the same way now, though there's a lot of bleeding involved and I'm running out of magnets, plus going to have to lie about some 'missing bits' since they don't sell the replacement bit I need for one of the jacks. It'll give me a total of 5 heavy chassis that can be all 8 variants, as well as 4 light jacks.

I dunno what I'm going to do with my Khador..I mainly just wanted them cause I like Sorscha. I'm thinking I might build a small theme-list army for Sorscha and that be all I have for the army, kinda like I'm doing with my Circle. I've got a 50 point circle army for Baldur's theme list @ tier 4, and no intention of buying anything else for the army except the colossal when it comes out.

Greg’s asked about getting pic of painted models for his site. Sounds like a good idea. Maybe he’d be interested in weekly pic from a ""Tale of X Painters" kinda thing."

Also I got that dominion card game. Keith, Toni, Brian and I played it for 4 hours the other night. It’s awesome. If I come in on the 30th we should play it.

well, im all for some kind of paint contest thing. Whatever everyone wants to do really. I am going to finish off doc killingsworth tonight then start into mr walls.

I have Dominion as well, plus the extra card pack so 5-6 players can play, just as an FYI. Also picked up Ticket to Ride (train board game, looks fun for a sit and talk and play thing) and Star Flux (Star Wars/Star Trek themed Flux)

I was in barnes and noble over the weekend and they have these D & D board games. One with a dragon and one with a vampire. I wonder what those are like. It seems like they would be fun.

I only care about vampires with sparkles!

Or or those killed by Abraham Lincoln.

some good stuff here
