Frostgrave, Halo Ground Command and other tabletop minis

Sweet. I'll be doing that then with the facebook stuff. I just looked into my thingiverse account and holy crap I'll be printing a ton of stuff when my printer gets here. Those jersey barriers are in there along with tons of cool stuff for all these mini games. I wont know where to start.

I finished 5 more walkers for The Walking Dead All Out War. All I have to do is spray varnish them with Dullcote and then brush some satin varnish onto the blood spots to give them a more wet look. I have 5 more partially done, and riot gear Rick mostly done.

I call the prisoner walker Elvis walker. Even the prisoner ID is related
Old guy walker spilling his guts.
Go-Go walker
Biker walker
Punk Rock walker

Cool hahma. After finishing my french pirates and starting my spanish pirates I took a break to churn out some new terrain pieces for gridless imperial assault using some stuff I had once made for sci fi heroscape stuff I never got around to posting. Here in a month or so Ill be getting my 3d printer and away I will go printing for these cool games. I already have some 500 files from thingiverse in my collection. On another side note my ghost archipelago copy arrived today. Im just browsing through it now. Ill post pics of my exploits this weekend for sure.

You'll be even busier when you get your 3D printer @TREX

Pirates like crazy eh! Sounds like it's a good thing I didn't get that game, too many models to paint. Halo Ground Command has a lot, but they are smaller scale, where not as much detailing and highlighting is required.

Look forward to seeing that massive pirate army someday.

I finished up the rest of my Walkers for The Walking Dead All Out War, as well as my final survivor, Rick with riot gear. 22 Walkers and 17 survivors total for now, as there are several more survivors I want to get eventually.

One of the cool thing about this game, is that there are different versions of certain characters, and different character cards to represent them. Some of the characters might have started out weak, but get stronger as they develop. Or they could could have could have gone through some times when they were a little bit unhinged.

I just have to varnish them.

[TREX]

Very gruesome. Do you guys also use the different versions of the same character at the same time? I just finished the core box heroes of my spaniard pirates and am already 1/4 through their crew. Ive been meaning to take a break from painting to put together some starwars terran.

You can't use multiple named characters as part of the same group. Kind of like Heroscape.

So of we are playing cooperative, then only one of any named character.

If playing 1v1, 2v2 etc, then each team can only have one of any named character. So in a 1v1 game, each player can have the Rick from the base set, or both have Riot Gear Rick, or both have Rick on a horse. Or they can each have a different version than the opponent.

There are also different versions of cards that can be used for the same model. Sandra and Patrick from the base set each have a veteran version of their cards in the Days Gone By expansion I believe, that are beefier than their base set ones. But of course they come with higher costs. They will have different stats and abilities, so you have to decide what you need or prefer when team building.

Fun stuff.

After painting quite a few figures of it. I think my rum and bones figures will be perfect for ghost archipelago. Each player could use a different crew and use the bosens and deckhands for standard crewman. Then use their pick of any of the other hero crew members for their heritor warden and specialists. They could also use any of the mercenary figures for those as well. The great thing about it is I painted the rings of their bases the color of their crew so it would be even easier to see who is who. This also leaves me a bunch of hero base ring caps for other mercs to have matching colors with their crew. This is awesome.

So you should have some battle reports well before me for Ghost Archipalego TREX

Though, I could probably use my Frostgrave figures until I get my GA figures painted. Still need to do some terrain stuff for tropical setting. Have some stuff, but mostly need to get my palm trees mounted.

Im so horrible at posting pictures these days. Ive got some cool stuff already done up for ghost archipelago including a little pirates cove looking thing made from a fisher price playset. Im looking into options for my watery base mat. Ill be overlaying it with different shaped pieces of cork board roll for the little modular islands. Should be pretty slick. When I do snap a bunch of pics of my pirates im going to pose them on some of the cool island terrain. Ill also use the island terrain for a scarif type terrain for my starwars imperial assault skirmish gridless play. Itll work great because both mini games are 28mm.

I picked up the GA Rule Book and the GA Accessories box with the Heritor Ability and Warden Spell Cards and a nifty Burn Die. Great stuff overall. Just take care sleeving the cards as they can be nicked on a corner if the sleeve isn't slipped on carefully.

Word is they are going to release the FG Spell Cards again with corrected/errated wording on them. I plan on picking them up as well.
