edonil Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Heh, that happens. So, doing any writing for the Quill, Nikko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Reminds me, I'm typing up my notes from my writing class, anyone in here want a copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I will be. Thinking about starting something in a day or two. Do the entries normally start rolling in in the last week or two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I am good thanks Ed.... but have reached that time when I am having issues keeping my eyes open, catch you all later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Later, Monkey, sleep well. And yeah, most of the entries show up at the latter end of the cycle for each round, Nikko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Well, I'm not looking for a repeat of last time. Less than 15 minutes to spare is cutting it ridiculously close. Nice that I've learned to tell time since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustcrusher Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Y'know, that's something I've always found weird. Unless it's a card game, I've always had a helluva time getting people to try out a game even if I have two forces for it. It's always a pain in the ass, cause it makes doing demos or helping people get real experience with a game to make an informed decision really hard. Unless it's a board game for me much of the time. The club attendees tend to be more open if you have a full demo set up, though. I know that situation all too well. It's why I need to start acquiring sets of different Malifaux factions. If Mohammed can't go to the mountain, etc.. I try to do the same for any game I play. Minimizes the excuses for not trying it. I will try a lot of different games even if I have no intention of playing them beyond that. Who knows, I might be surprised, right? Oh, didn't realize she was a Viktoria. Not the biggest fan of the looks of the sisters. They, along with the rest of that crew look the least "steampunk," most "cheesecake anime pinup calender." I never saw it, but apparently the new Viks crew was heavily influenced by the movie Sucker Punch. I think the only models from the set I'm "eh" on are the Ronin. I like the Viks' goth-punk look (they would probably listen to a lot of Bauhaus if they were in the modern world), Taelor is actually dressed sensibly (though I like the metal version's "what, you want some?" pose), and the Student of Conflict is cute (and would make a great stand-in for a young girl hero in multiple RPGs). That reminds me...Google "Gotham High art." It's classic Batman characters reimagined as students at the same high school. Now imagine that but with Malifaux characters- maybe as a 6-12 school instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikko Andass Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey, Ed. Doing alright, hanging out at "A Wyrd Place" on Facebook. Made sort of a joke thread there that I'm following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey guys..... sitting here reading my Napoleonic boat rules that finally showed today How is things over there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey, Monkey -- how are you? Now, what was it Ed was saying about you and your little boats before .....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 There is something great about naval gaming ...... and terrain is so easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I was just going to ask you about terrain, but not for the naval game. What sort of terrain do you use for your tank game? Do you make your own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I have a bunch of Second World War era buildings, some chopped up doormat as fields and the same forests and hills I use in 28mm. Mine is a mix of stuff I have bought and some bits I have made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Ah, terrain... I need to figure out how to get motivation to actually do that kind of stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 With most of my armies being done hopefully early next year, I am going to move onto doing some more terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Have you seen that we now have a new forum about terrain? It's not showing up in the recent activity feed, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I did see that, was surprised but it looks quite cool. Privateer Press' forums have some good stuff on terrain in their section as well, if you want to see more ideas for that kind of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Huh ..... so we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Terrain making is quite an art form in of itself. I do enjoy it but find it can take too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I think I just get annoyed with the idea of painting it, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
