Another Post

Still can't make it on Sunday but one of the guys at good games said they would try to come to the uni. Sounded like they couldn't make it this coming Sunday but possibly next fortnight. Also The Skorne battle engine is out.
Spears are long enough that I believe they have reach.

I also thought I'd put up a list of warmahordes podcasts I like to listen to while I paint. Uli wanted to know some and if anyone else is interested in something to listen to here they are:

http://warcastonline.com/ - Guys from Canberra, I've met James and was crushed by Aarons Cryx at super series last year. James Morehouse is no1 in the Australian warmachine rankings (and best legion general though he now plays Circle). Currently they are competing against elite cadre in the ashes vassal challenge (haven't managed to get into elite cadre yet, James Moorehouse picked up a win game one for the aussies).

http://www.boosteddamage.com/ - British guys who never stay on topic. Expect warmachine discussion to be  interrupted with discussion of anything from Malifaux to pepper pig. Snape the old host has had a kid and the guys running it now are more hardcore painters than hardcore gamers.

http://www.chain-attack.com/ - These guys are from Idaho USA. Rather than just chatting aimlessly about warmachine they do battle reports and then rate casters and talk about how they play. Occasionally they have some gems you had not thought about how to play a caster but mostly its the obvious builds (they are obvious for a reason). Using Boomhowler with McBain was one of theirs.

http://featturn.libsyn.com/ - Feat Turn. Only one episode so far and it contains some really really bad singing (about Kovnik Joe the loneliest man in Khador). That said I have met Terry, he came to Moab and is a hugely nice guy. It's another battlereport podcast, similar to chain attack but with Adelaidiness.

  1. You have the domination book, surely you can look up that all its weapons have reach, rather than guess.

    You just don't want to admit that it can stomp your oversized squid flat (even though I have no intention of buying one).

    1. Talking about a conversation I had with Ed, in the artwork in Domination the spears don't look long enough to stab someone unless they actually climbed up on the thing let alone long enough to have reach. They fixed it with the model.

      and pfft, it's not a squid it's mutated pedestal, fear the pedestal Graham.
