They say sometimes you need to go away, in order to come back. Good to see things have been ticking over while I’ve been “away” (ok, otherwise engaged with a new job and generally not doing much hobby of late). And what better time to come back? Straight into some hard-hitting questions that I’m absolutely passionate about.

• coffee or tea – tea. I’m quite partial to a coffee but if I had to pick one, it’d be tea. Anyone who chooses otherwise is a monster.
• square or round – round. Miniatures point in the direction their faces are looking. Square bases confuse which way is forward. Anyone who says otherwise is a monster.
• dice or cards – cards. Dice are stupid (quite literally). They’re dumb. Cards have “memory”. This matters in games – being able to tell when your luck is about to change (and, importantly, knowing for sure it’s going to happen) make games fun. Losing because your opponent got a few lucky dice rolls stinks. Anyone who believes otherwise is a monster.

Here’s your music. It’s a three-chord twelve-bar-blues. I’ve been playing quite a bit of this at the local jam nights of late. It’s not only great fun to play, but brilliant to listen to, loudly.

Are we still doing pledges? I’ve a couple of Blood Bowl orcs that have been half-painted for about 18 months. Getting those finished (and based) by next weekend feels like an acheivable target…
