SteamHammer Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 If it's fun then I'll get the book for the fluff. Most of the time will still be Malifaux as that's where my heart, soul and wallet are but once in a while you just want to go "pew pew pew".

edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Heh, basically. Plus, like I was telling Monkey earlier, I intend to do my terrain as generic as possible. I figure a good dense Infinity board will make two boards for Malifaux easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I guess the Guild could have come up with very large shipping crates. One per carriage on a train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I've thought about getting a train for a terrain piece...but the expense is somewhat absurd. The tracks aren't too bad, but $30 for a box car is nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Way too much. Maybe just get the tracks and then improvise the carriages. It's not like you need them to roll along the tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I read about a Warmachine battle report where they did that, it sounded like a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 You could always make story encounters where one Master has to twirl their moustache (fake one for the ladies) and either blow up the tracks or tie a model to it before the train arrives.

Mister Shine Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I've spent far too much on terrain over the past year or so. But I do know where to get cheap terrain! http://store.advanceddeployment.com/category/cheapside-terrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Afternoon everyone. I've seen that site before, Shine...glad to hear that their stuff is decent enough quality that it's worth investing in. So, how goes, folks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hey Ed, hows the day? Just got a mechanical keyboard, feels so much nicer to type on so I might actually settle to some writing soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 You've been typing on an ipad this whole time? I'm surprised how much you get done! I'm okay. My Tohaa starter showed up, which is great. Sadly, my Sakiel infantry is missing his head. (sigh) That was the model I wanted to test the full color scheme on. Ah well. Guess I'll work on a Kamiel. Right now, assembling models while listening to the last lectures I've got before my midterm. ---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ---------- Oh, and I got an email that made me laugh from my boss. 'Good luck finding work tonight. Nothing new at test, nothing new at prober.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Yeah, weirdly I'm faster on the pad than on the laptop keyboard! But this mech one is amazing to type on. And will speed me up, make it more pleasant to type on, and hopefully result in me doing more novel! That sucks about the missing head, they going to replace it for you? Heh, so not much to do tonight then? that'll be fun for you. What day was the midterm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Um. The midterm is due by midnight, lol. More novel is good! *grin* I hope they will. Sent them an email with the information that they say on the forum. Apparently I can expect a new head in about three weeks. (sigh) On the upside, I get the head for him. Downside, that's a long time. ---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 PM ---------- Hey Mako! Check it out- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Awesome video! Going to have to put 2 cent show on now... Three weeks? Could be better, could be worse I guess. Sucks to have to wait extra though. Midnight tonight? eep, lucky work is quiet then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm sure I'll be fine. Last lecture, a little bit of reading, then it's all multiple choice and true/false questions. Not stressing over it, lol. But yeah, the lack of anything to do is a bit of a God send! ...man, looks like I'll be listening to that cd while doing the midterm... Oh, and screw the guy who sculpted the Ekross... Largest model in the set, balanced on one foot. Boo! lol. Even the Clipsos went together easier... ---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ---------- ...speaking of the clipsos, she just broke because the glue wasn't dry as I thought... feth. >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Sigh, just as I thought life was going well, my laptop has decided to have hard disk problems again. It's now going to have to go back to HP, I just have to get it working long enough to actually rescue things off it and disconnect every login on it...

Mako Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Story of my life since I got my work permit... Oh well, now my nice new keyboard will sit unused while I shout at HP and make them replace the stupid laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 You just haven't had any luck lately. Oof. I'm sorry mate. That reminds me, heard on the roof yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Yeah, my luck has been almost a straight deck of black jokers so far. Since they said it was the guttering not the actual roofing (cheaper by far) I've not heard a thing. They're testing my patience.

Mako Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yeah. My time here has been plagued by incompetence, faulty stuff, and laziness. On both sides of the ocean. I can't wait to be able to end my contract, leave here, and get a decent job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yeah, I bet. Man, it feels good to get some paint onto models again...sadly, the lectures are over and I need my hands to read my textbook... Getting any further with other oil painting designs? Or focusing only on Ramos for now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Probably going to focus on one at a time, just to keep things simple. That, and I'm still struggling to know what to do with most of them. Kind of want to work on one faction at a time so Colette and mei feng to do next I guess. But I'm in a bit of a wierd mood now, not sure what I want to do. Can't be bothered to sculpt, and am staring blankly at the canvas and my GenCon crew. Might not be a hugely productive night...
