What's on your table right now?

Nice. You have the minis to back that up? I remember you talking about that before but I had no idea what it was until now.

I don't but the guys in my group do. We play big battles 2-3 times a year.

Gliders from the Sky

That sounds like a neat little game: http://www.hfdgames.com/gliders.html

Did you splurge for the mounted counters?

BanzaiCat · August 10, 2017, 07:16:47 PM

I do have mounted counters coming, yes. O:-)

High Flying Dice Games strikes me as an anomaly because they do games on subjects not explored, such as their Raid on Astrakhan one (can't recall the title, but that's cool as hell in my book). Both Gliders and St. George's are older titles but I'd never heard of them and they should be great review titles.

I played the Brigade level a long time ago but never tried the Regimental level. Be interested to know how it plays.

Sure you did...at Waterloo. But he's talking about a game, here, not your experiences with the Old Guard. ;D

The Old Guard?

Merde alors!

BanzaiCat · August 17, 2017, 10:14:44 AM

Yeah, yeah, it was probably Wellington, but Old Guard sounded funnier in my mind. ;)

Silly old BC.

Happy Birthday <:-)

O0 Thanks, Bob!

All kinds of stuff coming in lately.

Fields of Fire 2nd edition and Techno Bowl are on the table, in the growing counter punching to-do list.

BanzaiCat · August 18, 2017, 03:35:20 PM

We'll have an unboxing video for Techno Bowl on the YouTube channel on Monday (as long as that hasn't changed since you told me last, Brant).

GJK · August 19, 2017, 10:53:33 AM

My table should look the same soon - FoF2 on the way and Techno is actually set up on the table now but TGTLH* didn't actually sit to play after saying she would so I need to pick it up to make room for other stuff. To be honest, I think I'll enjoy Blood Bowl much more as a game but stole some ideas from Techno for it; I purchased a neoprene mat pitch (similar style to Techno) and I'm also making wooden 1" blocks for all the Blood Bowl teams. Actually purchasing the new Blood Bowl set and teams would cost a small fortune- this way I'll have all the teams and a mat that cost $20 and is very portable.

I was rather surprised GMT sent Fields Of Fire via 2-day shipping. ???

Makes me wonder whether mine was near the end of their long shipping period for it, to make up for comparable lost time, or whether they just sent them all that way.

Pinetree · August 19, 2017, 07:44:32 PM

I've heard GMT pick a random letter when it's time to ship and then follow alphabetically from there. When I got Silver Bayonet, they charged me the lowest rate and then sent it via UPS air which is the most expensive. Got here in 7 days, that included being held up for 2 days due to earthquake and floods. They charged me the lowest rate again with FoF so I'm hoping it's the same deal.
