Demo time

Well I have been out this week to do a demo of Dread ball with a new player.
He has just got the base game and had no one to play.
I is great to get out and play some more games of Dreadball,
So thanks Mathew for the games.

I seemed to not have uploaded any of the photos from the game.
But it was the base set Corp v marauders.

2015 where to for now.

well as part of the planning for the next year it is goo to set some goals.
these goals will be broken down as time goes by.
but to start lets look at the basic five points for the next 12 months.

Well here is mine

1. Paint more then I buy/or receive from kick-starters
2. Play more games then I demo.
3. Run four events during the year 2015
4. Update my blogs- at least once a week-
5. Build three display boards for three different systems.

So what will you do this year?

now that I have set down the basics of my up and coming year, I already have mad a change. As well as increased the scope of the goals for this year.

1. as well as above I would also like to paint more then I did last year,

Completed YTD

802

Deadzone – terrain x2

Dreadfleet – terrain

Mars attacks – terrain x2

Watch tower - 1

2. So I am a pathfinder and this year would like to increase my games play so I need to play more games with people the just demo games for mantic that way I still can build up the player base of my mantic games and get more games in.

3. no change

4. no change

5.. build three display tables.
the update is that I will be building an abyssal table for Kings of War, this will now mean only two display boards and one table.


One of the events I like to do is build terrain, so each year I choose a theme and build a table or two, last year it was a jungle table, so this year I am building a Abyssal table.I actually Build tables for many of the systems I play so last year there was a 8foot Jungle table for Kings of War, as well as a jungle table for dreadzone, I did not get a dreadball one built , But I bought the Azure Forrest broad with the expansion.
now one of the efforts i make is that all of my tables from different systems now link to the main table so that the games can all flow together. as you can see with the KoW table and the Deadzone terrain.
so this means that as i make the next table all others will be linked in some way.

so for 2015 I have Kings of war table to do, Then a linked in display board or a gaming table for, deadzone, dreadball and Mars attacks as these are the game systems in play as at the beginning of 2015.

 this is the jungle table

deadzone add on to jungle table.

Off topic Terrain update

One of the parts of the hobby I like is Building Terrain so over the past weekend I have worked on some terrain project for a break from painting minis.

First up some new trees,

A long dead native.

and some castle walls, there is six foot of walls next up for them will be towers.

as well as the reconditioned hill.

so Just a bit of fun for the game.

Welcome to 2015

This is a new year and I am ready for the challenge of all that is mantic
The year finished with a surprise.  I got my copy of dread ball extreme ,
well that was cool to get now season four is underway.

Also received the missing forge guard for dead zone-

as great end to 2014 - if you go over to my painting page you will get a run down of the painting I completed this year lets just say it was quiet a bit.

Now back to my new stuff,
In January we started off with our monthly kings of war day at the local club, Krags.
We had six of us with the one new guy, we also have started to play at 1500pts now.

this was a great night. look forward to next month.

I have also booked in a couple of intro games at outpost south on Tuesday, for a new player looking to get into dreadball.
Next up will be getting a basic league off the ground. I will try to get 4-6 players in this one to help with getting my skills right just as well as the players,
I will do a season one league to get the new players involved, as I have now found two players new to the game wanting in.

One of the events I like to do is build terrain, so each year I choose a theme and build a table or two, last year it was a jungle table, so this year I am building a Abyssal table.I actually Build tables for many of the systems I play so last year there was a 8foot Jungle table for Kings of War, as well as a jungle table for dreadzone, I did not get a dreadball one built , But I bought the Azure Forrest broad with the expansion.

I really believe that I will only play it painted and if I asked the players to play it painted then I need to provide them with tables of the same standard.
so this year the new table is about the abyssal.

As well as building tables, The local FLGS is a magic store and has room for gaming tables so I offered to load the store three tables and terrain to get more players down to the store and show off the games mantic have. So with those tables and terrain at the store from my collection, helps me just go down and play any time someone wants a game. It is about building better relationships with the local store.

Any way back to the gaming table.
