edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Not so bad at the moment. Doing some inpromptu research on shotguns. Mainly thanks to a cracked article and tvtropes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 So trying to avoid the usual shotguns are useless beyond 10 feet problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 So trying to avoid the usual shotguns are useless beyond 10 feet problem? That, and trying to figure out the origins of the things. Since I'm back to writing, thinking of weapons to hand out to Victrix infantry, particularly Victor. A trench gun seems like a useful thing.

SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I guess it depends on how well equipped the army/militia is. Would they have tools for every situation or be "suck it cannon fodder". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Good point that. Another question to work over. Good to see Elle back and engaged with a project, it's been a while since I was having this much fun planning. So, how's the end of your week going?

SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Still no sign of spring. There was plenty of snow falling yesterday after work. Nothing settled as the ground was too warm but still weird. Bank holiday weekend at least so one less day of work next week. Brought dismounted Lucas up to speed last night so he's almost painted to the same point as the mounted one. And did a bit more on the wastrels.

edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'll have to take a look at that, Shaper...haunting music is a favorite of mine. How's that box set going, Steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Luna and Sidir are completely untouched. The others should be done by the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 g'morning Chris, how are you? ---------- Post added at 05:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 AM ---------- So, Steam, it turns out I have a connection of some kind at the local archery club...the guy who heads the club has breakfast at my dad's store every day. Definitely going to have to give it a try this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Go for it. Just don't blame me if you get hooked and then have to spend loads of money on gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Oh, hopefully not... the spending of tons of money, I mean. I expect I'll enjoy the archery itself well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 It's not too bad. You can start pretty cheap and there's often people at clubs who want to upgrade their stuff meaning you can get their old gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 That might be handy. It'll be interesting to see what kind of archery they're doing, I've never fired anything more complex than a plastic bow with a piece of string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Bleh. But since I was sick Monday, blah seems to be the new normal. So I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm sorry. Hope you feel better. At drill, or on your way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I got my uncle's recurve bow when he died. Haven't shot it yet, but the arrows are longer than my arm. I'm afraid it may be too big for me. ---------- Post added at 04:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 AM ---------- On my way. I'm walking out the door now.

SteamHammer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I've only seen that one once and it was a while back. I remember not liking it as much as the others. Even the second one with the obnoxious kid in was better overall. The third one still had its moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
