@sundancer you aren’t supposed to go encouraging me like that 😛

@rayzryr Take it you have had a chance to check out Blade Runner 2049 by now too? I’m keen to put together a cyberpunk table one day for the Afterlife game (and possibly Human Interface if it eve lands…). Gloomhaven sounds intense. Some of my friends have been playing a fair bit and they are fans of it.

@limburger wow, that vid takes me back… Agree re big point investment models in games. Occasionally @llandorin and I  will get the chance to play a stupidly big game of WHFB 8th edition (4,000 to 5,000 points – so several hundred minis for each army and sometimes 2 hours to unpack/setup and deploy) and we’ll never use named characters and only occasionally bring one big monster to the table. Can’t imagine sinking such a huge component of your resources into one mini – as you said would distort the game too much. But then I guess it is nice to give people the option of playing out narrative games or replaying classic narrative battles so to each their own 🙂

@tuffyears LOL! Yeah I guess Abbadon is a busy man and must get around to attend to his varied nefarious schemes. In defence of the avid collectors out there however, the new model is stupidly good – can’t wait to see how people paint him up.

@woldenspoons no Abaddon? careful or the Lodge shall revoke your membership ;-P

@sundancer best of luck sourcing the rest of your components – maybe keep an eye on EBay or similar to see if people are selling a big box of old unwanted stuff they are too lazy to sort? That’s how I get most of my minis nowadays 😉

@horati0nosebl0wer Overnight 12’s…? bait and Switch indeed. Good job on not being dead – please keep that up 🙂 Good video, rings true. Thanks for sharing.

OK Team, will post awards etc later – in the meantime, new thread is up:
