Hobby progress has slowed, waiting for an X-ray on my left hand and hoping it's not arthritis. New addition to my rules collection has been Xenos Rampant. I'm not a big Sci-fi gamer but now and then fancy an easy pick up game to use models that I've gathered over the years, mostly because I like them and fancied painting them. I plan to use figures from Gates of Antares, Bad Squidoo Games along with some All Quiet on the Martian Front drones, which will play the part of mechanical space aliens. It will also give me a chance to use the Tenfold Dungeon Facility that I got as part of the Kickstarter. The Facility is a really nice set, I'll take some pictures for a separate post. Gale Force 9 now market the Tenfold Dungeon sets, though as far as I'm aware the Facility hasn't been released. Sets are available from North Star Military Figures.
I've managed to paint up some 15mm Frankish warriors from Gladiator Games, not basing them yet as I want to paint up more from another manufacturer and mix them in. I've also started a 15mm English Hundred Years War army, and made a start on the 28mm New Kingdom Egyptians. Given the difficulty I'm having with my hands at the moment I'm focussing on painting rather than basing at the moment, albeit slower than I'd like.
Hope your hand issues are refilled quickly snd you can get back to the painting desk. 28mm NKE sounds great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, apologies my reply seems to have not been published!
DeleteI am quite a fan of Daniel Mersey’s Osprey rules… so I will be interested to hear/read your thoughts on these rules.
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Same here with Daniel Mersey's rules, too tired to read at the moment, but have made a slow start. I'll post my thoughts once I've read them and had a game. Initially I was looking forward to gaming over Christmas, but my rota has just been released and to say it's horrible would be an understatement! Still might be an easier January.
