  Well, to start of here is my X-wing battle report. Still working out the best way to make a report for this... what do i follow? Each maneuver? Each turn?. So far i have gone for end of each turn. but it might change as i believe the maneuvering is a big part of the game and should be shown. Click here for Report   Also Battle 1066 is a little closer, and i have just finished my Senlac Ridge for the Battle of Hastings. Just more Normans to paint!   Also i am tring to brighten up my boards with some green, my battle reports of drab brown will hopefully become slightly brighter.

  I go back to the KoW system, for one last chance of redemption for the fantasy rule set. Been a long while since i have played it, and was interested in what their update had to offer.

 Well, October is nearly upon us and i have to prepare for the event. It should be a good day, with two games being played, in 4vs4 battles. With that in mind, i thought it may be prudent to start to learn the Viking and Norman battle board.   So here is my latest report in trying to learn the Viking way! Click here for Batrep. My opponents Anglo-Danes, forming a proper shieldwall.

As i am building up my crusader force, i'd thought i'd do a little review on the plastics i am using from Conquest Games.

So the SAGA rules i have been working on seem to be fun, as we attempt a "Battle of Barons". The game has two players on either side each with a walled keep. I have a small overview at the beginning of my latest battle report. Click here for report

  So with some siege towers constructed i thought i'd do a little tutorial. Click here for vid.     They're pretty simple i know, but also pretty cheap to cobble together, but still look the part on the battlefield. Still, need some more ladders though, so enough to keep me busy till sunday.

  I am starting a small run of video's on how to play SAGA, with a hopeful follow up taking a closer look at each Factions that i play. This first video is all about building a warband: Click here for Video   Other than that i have been scribbling to create some siege rules for SAGA. I really enjoyed the siege game we played, but i'd like to make it a little easier for the defenders, and also introduce siege engines. Next week we have a big game of SAGA planned on a 6'x7' board, including 3 villages and two fortresses... should be fun. Currently trying to make some siege towers and ladders.   Finally have been taken by the Soda Pop Miniatures: Super Dungeon Explorer. I hadn't really been initially interested as i have "Descent" which is a great dungeon crawler, even though you have to plan a weekend around a single scenario!   What got my attention was the Player vs Player arena, as it seemed fun and quick, though we did decide to remove t...
