Bolt Action

Yesterday I played another round of Bolt Action, this time with Christian / Fritz giving him an introduction to the game. And what can I say, we did not only have fun, I have won another player for Bolt Action.

Bolt Action could show what it's good at. It is fast, it is lean and offers a lot of entertainment. A good combination without being to simple. For the next time we know, we need more terrain.

There are no pictures of that game - for a reason. Why? Well first off all, a bunch of unpainted miniatures on a proxied table are a rather sad thing to look at, but i have plans.

What plans? Well, I am still missing a central piece for my gaming table, a gaming mat made from acryl. The pictures were taken from Frank Bauer, one of the big guys in german wargaming and a driving force behind the Tactica.

Back from the Lead Belt

I still owe you guys some reportage on my Nottingham trip.

The 4 days around Warlord Games Day were not only used to visit Warlord Games, but Mantic, Battlefront and the Warhammer World as well.

First off all, what did i bring back to Germany? Due to travelling by plane a little bit less than i would have otherwise.

Warlord Games – Behind the scenes 2013

Within the Warlord Games Day, that was not used just for gaming, but although an open-door day, was a good chance to see what is going on behind the scenes.

And for all of those, who weren't there and didn't win one of the golden tickets, a couple of pictures.

Warlord Games showed a few casting molds, to show how miniatures were sculpted and casted. Beside 3-Ups (they are called like this because they are 3 times the size of the final product), that are used to produce plastic miniatures, you could see some greens and greys. That is the name of the miniatures, sculpted in green or grey modelling clay, that are later on casted in pewter or resin.

3. Quarter of 2013

The weekend is close and the third quartal '13 started. Unfortunately no new color, but a few novelties and some finally built inherid burdens.

I ordered some Artizan Design some figurines via Miniaturicum. Nice additions for Legends of the Old West and Bolt Action. Along with some Gladiators from Crusader Miniatures, those aren't that great. Casting is okay, but the sculpting is average at best.
