Not dead yet!
Just dropping in to let you folks know I’m still in the hospital but am on the mend – docs reckon I could be discharged Monday, which would be nice ? Of course this does mean I have a small mountain of post to work through when I get home, including Mythic Battles 1.5 (although annoyingly I’m one of the 900 who are waiting on the 1.5 components due to a snafu with backers not finalising their pledge managers in time…), this months Conquest, some extra issues I’d forgotten to cancel, and Asset Drop. No idea how long they’ll have me signed off for but hopefully I can make a dent whilst recovering, and will probably throw some stuff in the marketplace to have a bit of a purge….
Onto questions:
- I like ringbound for ease of use, but appreciate its not an option everyone can go for.failing that I like to have a digital copy to hand, even better if it’s optimised, but otherwise soft back for tabletop use, hardback for reading through at home….
- Depends on the game in question, but even when playing games in Middle Earth to the GFFA I enjoy spinning my own fluff, sometimes building off what is already there, other times coming up with something whole cloth (whilst trying to avoid falling into Gary or Mary Sue territory). For example I’m giving serious though to trying to write something fictiony for the Raptors Chapter of Space Marines & the Crimson Fists post-Dark Imperium as there are some excellent hooks in the fluff for both that I want to play with…
- Infinity Pan-O Medium and Heavy Infantry antennae pre-remould. Hateful gubbins that you can lose at the drop of a hat. Otherwise my original Forge World Valkyrie was so annoying to build i’ve never actually finished painting it.
