Just leting ever one know I am alive.

I am sorry for dropping the ball on the blog.
You will be happy to know that I have at least been vary busy in the gaming world that is.
Played a few games of Nobel Armada "A call to Arms", and have ordered a Hawkwood fleet to be my fist fleet. the games were fun, fast, and the rules were easy to play. I highly recommend it, and to top it off the Fleets are relatively cheap!
Give it a look, http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/miniature/series.php?qsSeries=68

Minie book review

I don't know how many of you out there in blog land are fan's of Mr. Dan Abnett, But I have been a fan for years.
What brought this up was a recent read titled, "Embedded"
Its not related to any of his other Sci-fi offerings from GW.
That being said its an excellent stand alone near futer offering.
the offering starts of with.
"The colony planet of Eighty0Six looks as dull as all its fellow new worlds to veteran journalist Lex Falk. But when a local squabble starts to turn violent. And the media start getting the runaround from the military high command, his interest is seriously piqued.
Forbidden form approaching the battle zone, he gets himself chipped inside the head of a combat veteran - and uncovers the story of a life time. when the soldier is killed, however, Falk must use all his resourcefulness to get safely back home again....and blow the lid off the whole damn thing."
the characters are easy to fallow and are believable. The build up to action is smooth, and filled with the gritty discritpions that the author is known for.
So in a nut shell. A good read, Great if you looking for some gritty sci-fi action, and are ma by looking for a new setting for your next table top sci-fi adventer.

GZG update.

Seeing as how I have failed again to deliver in a timely manner I must post some thing on here.
And for any that have a problem with it. Check out the song below.

Another restart

Yet again life is lending it self to gaming. Let me tell you being young and single in Vegas is not conducive to a war gamers life style. But a lad can dream. Right? Anyways my first thing up for offer is for all of you who are interested in the Nap wars New Napoleonic French Vivandieres http://www.warlordgames.co.uk/?p=10907 from warlord games, Bolt action range. This is for all of you that want to play some "7 men of Gascony" games. Secondly I have been bitten by the interwar bug again and am busy putting together my Irish National army for the ICW and some IRA for the Irish war of Independence along with British Empire forces. This has also lead to me, getting a few extra figs to do up the 1930s force so that I can use them for some imagination country's/pulp/fictinal South amrican coutnrys inter-war army/Irish pro-gov Irish forces in some ones English civil war games. I will be posting up pics as they come along. And finally I have will be showing some figs from the "Real Dungeon explores line" from soda pop miniatures. i haven't forgot about my older posts and will eventually get back into these things, its just a case of time, and money.

OK in what has to have been a vary busy day for the post men, I received my warlord factory, gripping beast and GZG order all at the same time! (gasp!)
to bad I have to study tomorrow, but I got most of the GZG stuff primed and based at least. Kind of starting with the easiest of the Bach first.

OK back at it

Ok partying my butt off and school starting agine has put a dampaner on my "Hobbies"
In the Mean, Warhammer Ancient Battles has tooken a bite out of me and I fell hard. I dug out the old rule sets that have been collecting dust on my book shelf and poped them open and I am vary happy with what I saw.
I am currently bulding at lest 2 Romen legions that will be used in a (distant) future Roman civilwar. I will be useing the forces from the WAB rule set for them and also I am makeing a Dacian army useing the Armes of antiquity and barbarians hoards army also from the WAB rule set.
There are 2 things that kick started me into this era they are as fallows.
One. The abilty to make a qick and relativly "Cheap" army useing all the plastics that are now on the market and two. Iron Mittien!
Checkout his Blogspot at http://iron-mitten.blogspot.com and if your not inspired to march on rome, then I say you dont have pulse.
Oh and yes on to the Shildwall segment, I was busy talkin to a friand and fellow gamer at the local store and in what can only be discribed as a bout of more money then brains I orderd the Saxon starter army from Gripping beast.
Now fall of the west and Saxon england have always been an intresting era for me so we shell see what direction this heads to then.
Pics will be posted soon.
