Tomorrow is First Game

  First game of the year for me, and the first game in which my FOW Indians will at least make an appearance. Wish the British infantry luck!

  In other news, I got a late Christmas present from my buddy Zac. The Cygnar starter set! He wants to play some Warmachine, so he got me started. I promised to have them painted by the end of March. We'll see.

  In other other news, I also received a shipment of the first game purchase I made this year: some bases for Car Wars! Huzzah! I can finally put some cars on bases, add the guns, and get down to plastering fools with HD Ammo death!

Good night! Must rest up to tackle Jerry in the desert, what?

2012: Year in Review

For gaming, 2012 was pretty much rubbish.

To be honest, it was bad for blogging, as well. Between my wife's illness and my school, just not a lot of time for anything fun and creative.

I did get a bit of painting done in the summer. That was good. Just need to get more done!

2013 shapes up a bit better. Still have school, but the missus is feeling much better (praise God!). Plan on attending Historicon with a friend this year, which will be nice. Might get back over to Ol' Blighty for the Tank Museum at Bovington's Tank Days. That would be cool.

More later...

Victoria's Boys in Red: Lest We Forget...

Victoria's Boys in Red: Lest We Forget...

Because we should never, ever, forget that the freedoms we enjoy as Americans, British, French, etc., were all bought at the price of the sacrifice of our veterans.

THANK YOU

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL

To quote Monty Python...

"I'm not dead."

Really. It just seems that way. I had a few productive weeks in August in the name of gaming and not a darn thing since then. Real life, grad school, start of term for the school in which I teach, yadda yadda yadda.

One fun non-gaming thing I did, which may have to become a new tradition in the house, was show my kids Ferris Bueller's Day Off on the night before school began. Just to put things in perspective. Danke schoen, darling, danke schoen...

I promise I will try to snap a few pictures of what I got up to at the end of summer and post them this weekend.

Really. I'll try.

Really really.
