Couldn't resist the lure of another skirmish game, this time it's Empire of the Dead by West Wind Productions. This is an old game, I believe it was released in 2012, and continues my habit of being up there with the cool kids and fashionably late to the party. I have been looking for a game to interest my other half and youngest daughter and this seems to fit the bill, especially with the recent offer from West Wind, £75 for 4 starter boxes and a free rule book. The terrain is part of a batch I've bought from TT Combat with the view of WWII games and possibly my 1866 collection. The factions chosen are, Lyaons, Nosferatu and the Gentlemen's club with Victorian Zombies. At first glance the rules seem simple enough for a novice to quickly grasp and the setting will definitely appeal to the intended audience.
The only issue I have at the moment is storage space for assembled mdf kits with renovations still ongoing, but one more box can't hurt! I'll pick up some more TT combat kits once I see how these fill the table out and I can get a better idea of what I'll need.
Other projects haven't been abandoned, they will just rotate as the mood takes me. This may have the positive outcome of making me more productive as output has slowed of late.
