People keep bringing up how I keep swearing off G. W. and then going back to them.
They wonder how that can be.
Those people are abject morons.

The secret is companionship. Not in the deeper sense, but in the shallow "just anybody" sense. I get lonely . Sitting alone in this shit hole gets old quickly. I hate G. W., but I hate being bored and alone ( Read more... )

 Check this initiative system out...
Looks kinda cool, just worries me that the game could get too ordered.
I'd probably check it out if I weren't already committed to another CMG.

Out of boredom I went to G.W. to talk to Jervis Johnson yesterday.
He's a really cool guy, and actually listened to our concerns about game balance (especially about magic creep with the new Dark Elf army book coming out).
The new cold one knights look really cool, but there's no way in hell I'm buying any of them.

Yep, that's about it.

Heather wants me to go and play AT-43. The only thing is I'm sick of getting hyped up over stuff and then getting shot down.

I think it's all the same bullshit. I'm tired of the over-competitive crap.

I'm tired of getting hyped up over some game, even a really good one, and ending up dropping money into it only to find that nobody else plays the ( Read more... )

The Germans are now painted. Score.

Now I have to paint the Americans. Look, I don't hate America or anything, but our stuff just wasn't as cool as the Nazis.
They had Tigers and Panthers and buzzbombs, oh my!
We had tanks that blew up real good.

Don't think I wouldn't have bombed your e-mail. I'm bored, and you will entertain me...

I no longer work for PETCO, as you may or may not know. They did not appreciate me, and after a year an a half (give or take) fuck 'em.
Also, they did not fire Chris. If you will not eliminate problems, you lose solutions.

On an up note, the WW2 side of Generic ( Read more... )

So, I have come to some decisions.
In reference to the game, that is...

Ranked infantry will be represented by 3 minis to a strip, oriented toward the long edge. Skirmishers and any other units operating in a loose formation (more of a mob than a unit) will have two minis per strip, again facing the long edge. Cavalry will have one model per strip, ( Read more... )

Despite my disgust for all things G.W. these days, I still hop on over to their website every now and again. Mostly to look at the new minis coming out, although http://www.tabletopgamingnews.com is a vastly superior resource. I must say the upcoming daemon models are, for the most part (daemonettes excluded) gorgeous...
...But the main reason I've ( Read more... )
