...And today I slept 'till noon.

I've been thinking of digging up my old sci-fi game rules and reviving them. They're a solid core, and with a little tweaking could be used to represent WW2, Vietnam, modern, ultra-modern, and even sci-fi skirmish games. Hell, if you don't mind the skirmish system used you could even represent historical or even ( Read more... )

Preliminary review:
Dynasty Warriors 6 sucks. I'm going to keep playing to see if I just need to get a feel for the game, but as of right now the game feels too "airy", as though nothing has any real substance to it. Also, everything moves as though it were designed for a system with a slower clock on board. In other words, it's as though the game ( Read more... )

 So, in one of my last responses I mentioned the game Anima Tactics, ans so for thoser of you who may be interested, here's a breakdown on the game.

Anima is played with a force of a handful of models, much like other skirmish games, but with far fewer models. A party for AT consists of 300 levels of characters (or points for established wargamers) ( Read more... )

G.W. keeps hurting me, but I keep going back. I'm getting sick of this, but since it's pretty much impossible to find any HORDES / WARMACHINE players that aren't douchebags (since HTU died) my wargaming jones just hasn't been satisfied ( Read more... )

Word is, tomorrow will have a pretty good turn-out for WARMACHINE night. Here's hoping ( Read more... )

WARMACHINE- Escalation arrived today, but the street date isn't until Monday. Damn. I was hoping to have some reading material for work today. I highly suggest that sapphiremagus picks up this book, as you won't always have mine available. If you want, I'll grab you one when I go over there to get mine (as I pre-ordered one, heh) so you'll be ( Read more... )

So, I picked up this new game totally on a whim, and I must say I'm rather impressed. NaviaDratp is sorta like chess on steroids. In fact, it's chess with a totally dynamic strategy behind it. You have your pawns (in two different flavors), you have your king (or Navia), but there the similarity ends. You must "summon" your additional pieces onto ( Read more... )

Ecchi's back. When she called me on Tuesday I about fainted, and of course I wanted to come right over and see her, if only for a few minutes. This idea was promptly shot down, much to my frustration. It seems she'll be too busy to see me until Saturday. Damn ( Read more... )

The Hall of Fame Game just kinda blew dead bear. Not that I'd really know, as I bailed on it as soon as it became clear that it was going into overtime. Here's hoping the 'skins pull it out (despite the fact that this game means preciscely jack squat) as it's what'll set the tone for the rest of the week ( Read more... )

Today I plan on sitting my butt downstairs, popping in the Sakura Wars OVA (maybe even the movie, if there's time) and finishing my Empire army. I'll let you know how that turns out.
