Maneuver Sticks
I haven’t played any games in a while, but I continue to collect and try to play Star Wars Armada. When we last played, one of the maneuver sticks used for the game was a bit damaged – one of the gear “clicks” became a bit soft, making it hard to lock it into place. …

Zombicide delay
Skipping my bi-weekly routine of painting zombies, quite simply because I have been unable to properly prime a new set of walkers. The weather has been very cold, but more importantly either wet or snowy, or both, and I have no inside spot to use spray paint. As such, I have to a wait for…

Imperial revisions
The second half of the latest Star Wars Armada release wave is the Imperial Chimaera, which adds variants to the existing Imperial-Class Star Destroyers. This pack was rather large, including not only the Chimaera model itself, but also two Mandalorian Guantlet fighter squadrons, along with all the cards and upgrades for both. Interestingly, it also…

Rebel reinforcements arriving

My snapshots are admittedly rather terrible, I am not sure if it was the camera or the photographer (likely the later), but hopefully you get the basic idea. I started with a primer coat of zombie…

Zombicide: Black Plague – painting the runners
Had some time over the last week to finally do some more painting, and managed to get half of the zombie runners painted up. Fortunately, they were all very basic, only a few colors, and all identical, so it didn’t take that much time to complete. I continue to struggle a bit without glasses, which…

Zombie delays
So I got distracted this week, and with a shorter than normal travel schedule, I ended up not working on the planned zombie horde. Instead, I have been spending many hours working on an automated GURPs character sheet, in preparation for my January GURPs Warhammer campaign. Will try to work on the zombies next week,…
