No better place to post this than this thread :

How’s that for a cover ? 😉

Did I mention Deadpool 2 was great ?

(1) What is your favourite random hobby product?

I’d say Revell plastic glue.
The tiny metal tip is soo useful when you need just a itsy bits teensy drop in just the right place.

(2) What game mats out there are you eyeing up for your table?

I keep wishing for one that shows a planet from orbit at night, preferably with glow in the dark paint effects.
Need not be Earth though. I’m not sure they exist.

(3) What do you think of large army sets like this?

I like them for their easy access to a viable army for those new to a given faction/rule set.
And I kind of dislike them because it makes me think all armies of a faction will look alike if they are popular (then again … that’s bound to happen in a tournament as well).
The one thing most systems don’t do is follow up on those starter sets with guidelines and/or expansion packs.
Corvus Belli did it for Infinity.

Currently awaiting the ‘Vikings: Great Hall Burning’ kickstarter, which has arrived in Jamaica NY (from their previous stop in Newark NJ) … I’m not sure how many days/weeks until they invade Europe though.
That should be a boatload of vikings, some buildings and the rules. 😀
