@mage yes I have a bit of a thing for cyberpunk so keen to see how the aesthetic of Altered Carbon looks. I’m still really looking forward to the idea of doing a cyberpunk gaming table one day. No idea what I’d do with it – Possibly use it for HINT or Afterlife? Maybe treat it as an administration world in 40k?… yeah the Xmas / New year period is nice and all – I really do like seeing the family and friends – but it is very busy and really quite stressful. Not sure why, you end up spending time catching up with people that you should feel relaxed around? But I wind up feeling a little burned out every year and actually look forward to getting back into work.

Yes the Mordheim box had 4 sprue types from memory – the terrain fixtures (windows, door frames, plastic frame slots for the card buildings to fit into etc) the Humans frame (later re-released as the 6th ed Free Company box), Skaven frames (again later re-released as the 6th ed gutter/night runners box set) and the fabled ‘Mordheim Sprue’ which had such fancy components as a lantern, coil of rope and treasure chest and sells for a big wad of cash second hand if you can ever find one. Although nowadays by the look of it any frostgrave box or 2 would give you way more bang for your buck conversion wise. Still, the kits were full of wonderful options for their time. 30 caramel crowns for posts and responses.

@woldenspoons thanks for the (totally balanced and not at all impartial) review 😉 Glad to hear it’s proving to be so entertaining. Is it stand-alone or does it require the main TWD game to run? 10 caramel crowns.

@dawfydd had assumed bloodthirster or maybe Ork meganob or something. Oh well, I guess it’s natures way of saying give the grizzled space viking a it of personal room 🙂 And that axe pun was completely terrible! 10 caramel crowns for the post and another 10 for the groan-worthy pun.

@horati0nosebl0wer thanks for the parts suggestions! I like the Spellcrow stuff (used them for some Ork Kommandos a while back) but not sure I’d drop that sort of bank on a unit for a second-line army that I’m only really doing as a bit of fun. I’ll definitely keep the components in mind though and if I do another order might grab some stuff to kitbash a few minis for variety. TBH fur cloaks I can sort of get way with greenstuff for the time being. colour me intrigued – which Mordheim warband? if it’s in good condition you could be accidentally sitting on Ye Olde Goldmine on that one, so you may wish to price check the value before you consider parting with it. Ah yes, NMM. I had the bright idea to do an undead army in black and white and NMM to force myself to learn the techniques required. In my defence I did get about 3 units done before I parked the project… 😛 10 caramel crowns for post, 10 for responses and 10 more for tunes.

 

Ok, it’s now after 9pm here and the temperature has fallen to below 30 degrees so I’m going to go and pour some water on the garden in the hopes that some of it might survive the next few days (forecast is for local temps north of 40 for the rest of the week… ). Wet palettes for the win!
