Terrain, Terrain, Terrain

Well I havent gotten much done on my terrain projects I wanted to do, due to my building piles of lead and plastic. So i decided October would be terrain month for me. Here is what is complete so far.

Impudent mortals tanks has been started. I really liked this Kickstarter and it delivered quickly. Looking forward to backing him again.

Another view with a "pringles" tank farm lugz made and gave to me. I am rebasing it. He did a good job I think.

all of the above with a CD case I converted. I hope to make a nice industrial table with all of these and some more,

A little warmachine action, 25 point game and boy were we rusty. I even confused a 40k rule with machine (blasphemy)

Cryx barely won with a caster kill. If i did not get it the last turn I was dead the next turn for sure.

I set up a small "Halloween" village for my wife since she likes to do Xmas villages in December. She hung my zombies, no respect for a walking dead display piece.

Some deadzone skirmish

My son's friend came over and wanted to play some deadzone. We gave it a whirl and while I don't know all the rules, we had to look them up and it was abit slower than it was supposed to be. But we did have fun and thats all that matters. I ended up losing cause it was late and we changed the rules to "commander" kill to finish the game. We might do a campaign next time he is over.

Enforcers layout with a merc or 2.

I really like that enforcer captain. Pretty dang tough.

The plague layout, yes thats a Hellbrute filling in for a strider. Why not?? The striders arent done yet.

The last of the plague layout.

In conclusion of the gameplay:

A. the stage 1 is way to slow, you need some move cards to get him across the battle field into action. B. The stider is OK. We may have not played it right or did not understand the rules fully.

C. The plague hounds are awesome, they can sprint and brawl, if you are playing plague, put all you can in your unit.

D. This is my 2nd game and I get the "blaze Away" action now

E. The plague needs a few more shooty units, the blaze away is cool, but they need some shooty.

F. I love playing the corporation. I can't wait to see the martians in mars attacks (I got the deadzone decks for the martians and humans)

A little behind

2 player starter box of wild west exodus purchased. In the process of putting some together. The rest is an Xmas present.

Got some deadzone in.... I didn't actually play, i kinda guided the game. After the game I got a lot of it wrong. Hopefully it will get better.

Plague vs. Enforcers. Enfocers needed to kill to get get VPs and the Plague needed to leave the board to win.

near the end, the plague pulled it out, while the enforcers killed a lot of guys.

The dude abides brother

Some scarecrows. If i find a good scare crow figure then these will be great henchmen for him. They will work for the pumpkin crew in the mean time. :)

Some finished plague models and some mercs

more plague.

Yep.... plague

Plague Tetradon

plague doggies

enforcers and mercs

more of the above

Meanwhile back at the lair....

Finally got me some P3 paints. Really like them, they are more "Fluid" than reaper paints. So far I prefer them to most paints.

Withershadow combine..... Finally got them painted. I actually did not paint them. My son's friend John Allen painted them. I added highlights and did the base, but he did a great job.

My first warmachine league. I got beat pretty late and gave him a run for his money, at the end, I got beat due to lack of experience. Overall I had fun and met new folks.
