I’ll just bring some 250’s and some card game then if people want to play.

Psofan89 · « **Reply #181 on:** 06 September 2022, 22:32:40 »

Ugh, set my alarm and overslept xp

What do we have planned for this week?

Strebor · « **Reply #182 on:** 07 September 2022, 15:11:19 »

I can bring stuff for a game of Orion's Gate. It's a spaceship fleet battle game with a pretty straightforward ruleset. Have all the materials covered minus playmats.

Optional stuff to bring:
D6s
Rulers
Pens / Pencils
Any sort of ship figures. Scale I'm bringing is about 1:6500 but bring whatever you want.
X-wing / Armada type playmats.

We'll use Firing Arc rules but not the Drifting rules.

Rules are here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gMab2JpVQzOylC4GToCVBzkGF4HBNY3O/view

Very basic record sheets that should print 4 to a page: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10Li6wDZ2GCJhdlYu2QzqLGQ4_1sGsJLU/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=113552686774658558938&rtpof=true&sd=true

How interested would folks be in trying MWDA this Sunday?

Psofan89 · « **Reply #184 on:** 15 September 2022, 13:27:41 »

If I can show, I’m down. I’ll need to borrow stuff.

Weirdo · « **Reply #185 on:** 15 September 2022, 13:44:06 »

I'll bring two forces. Figure 600 points per should be enough for two players per side without having so much that it'll overwhelm folks who haven't played in over a decade, if at all.

Psofan89 · « **Reply #186 on:** 16 September 2022, 14:33:41 »

Alright. Schedule says I’m off, so I’m gonna be off. Want me to bring a mat and some felt for terrain this Sunday?

Weirdo · « **Reply #187 on:** 16 September 2022, 14:52:04 »

I've got terrain, but a mat would probably be useful. :)

Strebor · « **Reply #188 on:** 16 September 2022, 15:46:06 »

Have a few mechs left but I've debased all my infantry and vehicles. If you've got some filler for these factions, we'll have some more forces to pick from.

Republic of the Sphere need ~89pts

Dragon's Fury need ~21pts

Dragon's Fury need ~76pts

Spirit Cats need ~30pts

I do have a boatload of loose infantry and BA, I'll dig through them and bring anything I have for those factions.

Whichever of those you'd like. :)

HUZZAH!!

just ordered the new beginners box; that's ONE Vindi :thumbsup:

whistler · « **Reply #192 on:** 17 September 2022, 14:22:47 »

Desert would be good! I have an idea. Is it okay to put masking tape on them? Very low-tack stuff.

Strebor · « **Reply #193 on:** 18 September 2022, 16:52:31 »

Here's that 4x space game I'd mentioned the other day. https://fractalsoftworks.com/ Very well done if you like that type of game.

Depends. Would the tape mess up a mouse pad? If not, then it should be fine.

Alright, So per our discussion Sunday: still not sure about this upcoming Sunday(25th) but I did put in for my personal vacation for the start of October. Assuming it goes through and I don't have any schedule shenanigans, here is what I had in mind for both Sundays(2nd and 9th):

- Star Wars CCG: Strebor and I both talked about it. We both have a ton of stuff, so if people are interested, that could be a fun chill and card game day.

- Shadows of Brimstone: A weird west dungeon crawler summed up as: Cowboys vs Cthulhu(now with Samurai!) A fully cooperative game that can have up to 7 players. A ton of fun and one of the best dungeon crawlers ever produced.

- Hobby day: Everybody can bring their hobby stuff, paints, models, etc. Just a chill day to hangout and do some hobby work.

- Star Wars Legion: Similar to how we did Mechwarrior. I'll bring two large forces and we will just have a large team game to teach people how to play. Empire vs Rebels.

sevengates · « **Reply #196 on:** 20 September 2022, 01:08:56 »

The games are fine, but the Hobby day may require permission from the store first.

Also, my CCG stuff is in storage which is currently being renovated (they're upgrading the doors and locks).

Uh oh. Did somebody make a mess with their hobby stuff at some point? xp

Psofan89 · « **Reply #198 on:** 20 September 2022, 14:49:37 »

Welp. Remember that Mechwarrior lot I talked about Sunday? Well, SOMEBODY might have talked him into dropping the price 400$.

When I get it in, I’ll Try to mention bringing some storage for those who want stuff >:D

WHOOT!! :thumbsup:

Strebor · « **Reply #200 on:** 22 September 2022, 22:04:44 »

Any interest in making a Battletech showing at https://lonestargameexpo.com/ ? They're doing their thing on the 30th-2nd.

Got lots of SWCCG decks built, mostly pairs of decks for movie scenes so lots of interaction.

Do have a collection of the WotC Star Wars minis if any extra figures would help.

Psofan89 · « **Reply #201 on:** 22 September 2022, 22:50:43 »

I’ve thought about running something. I’d probably do that or reapercon, but not till next year at the least.

sevengates · « **Reply #202 on:** 23 September 2022, 00:48:51 »

DOUBLE BOOYAH!!!!

Noice. I’m still waiting on mine xp unless something changes, I’m gonna have this Sunday off it looks like, what’s the plan?

sevengates · « **Reply #204 on:** 23 September 2022, 19:50:37 »

Brimstone was fun.

If Merritt is going to show, then Gaslands will probably be preferred

Strebor · « **Reply #205 on:** 23 September 2022, 19:57:03 »

Sadly, I'm working this Sunday, but free for all of Oct.

whistler · « **Reply #206 on:** 25 September 2022, 10:54:43 »

Sorry I keep meaning to check and then forget. I would like to come in today and can bring my gaslands stuff. I tried texting Evan to double check with him but haven't heard back yet.

Weirdo · « **Reply #207 on:** 26 September 2022, 15:36:27 »

Anyone interested in trying out a small Aero scenario this Sunday? It would just be a 2-player thing, possibly one we could even do fast enough to swap sides and replay.

sevengates · « **Reply #208 on:** 28 September 2022, 00:41:03 »

I'll bring the cheesecake; Monday is Merritt's and my birthday. :thumbsup:

Psofan89 · « **Reply #209 on:** 28 September 2022, 15:04:47 »

Well, of course they messed with the schedule again, so my vacation is pushed back a week. I’m still good for the Sundays I mentioned, so I’ll bringing Shadows of Brimstone this Sunday(2nd) it plays 6-7 comfortably so we have plenty of room for people to drop in and out.

In other news: I FINALLY got done doing inventory of all the dark age stuff. Since I have someone to help me haul stuff around, this and next Sunday are a good time as any. I’ve got every dark age faction alongside their parent faction so hit me up with what you want, and I’ll bring it for you. The only thing we are short is the ghost bears and wolf hunter.
