28mm Roman Auxilia

Auxilia update. The blue Auxilia are finally painted. The group is awaiting shields and transfers. First up is a shot of the command group.

Each auxilia will have a signifier, optio, centurion, cornicen, and an imaginifier.

Group shot, followed by each row. None are based yet. I still have not pulled the trigger on 60 x 60mm or 60 x 30mm.

Wound / Stamina markers

I finally got around to finishing the markers. I am happy with them for the most part. Anything is better than the gems stone things. The tuffs, I think are just OK. I may put it apart and give another go, add some rocks.

The wife has my D60 and I got the work camera. It is a Kodak and its junk. It takes AA batteries and will not focus. Sorry about the quality. More pictures to come, once my camera is back.

Sad Day

The warp has swallowed yet another. A good friend and magic man producing 6mm miniatures was C&D by grandma wendy. This horrible event will be felt throughout the EA community. I will be awaiting your return, sir.

May Chapter House slaughter granny.

Only reference to Specialist games.

“Specialist” refers to our specialist games which includes titles like Blood Bowl and some other game titles that frankly we don’t sell that much of. We lump them together and call them “Specialist titles”.

Q; And “Specialist”, those are unrelated to 40K?

A; Actually, we have a game called Necromunda, which is only related in as much as it is a game based on a planet set within the War hammer 40,000 universe, and we have another game called I think “Inquisitor” actually, funnily enough. In fact, yes, the game was called — I had forgotten about that earlier, thanks for that, it is called “Inquisitor” which was in terms of the registered trademark there is another product which was a kind of a — not quite a role playing game but it is a skirmish level game or the scale is bigger. So while as in our table top hobby war game Warhammer 40,000, an individual character might be about 30 mm, 35 mm tall, an Inquisitor, they are more like 54 or 60 mm tall. So those are specialist games. And then “Hobby” is our range of paints and scenery and paint brushes and pliers and modeling tools and glue, range rulers,
dice, all that kind of stuff that we sell as well.

Wound / Stamina Markers

I am not a fan of the gems being used to mark wounds or stamina of a unit. With the dial guy MIA. I have been using plastic blood drops. They look retarded. Last week I found these examples of wound counters. The idea jacked directly from; Roundwood’s World

Great idea, right? So I started to create my own set. I used greenstuff and some poor die floating around my table to create the square hole. Than some basing material and cheap craft store paint. Tonight I will knock out the finishing touches and attach some dudes.

Next up will be copies of the disordered markers. Another idea jacked, from someone more creative than me.

Ebay

I was cleaning out one of my many boxes. In that box I found 3 Epic Tau drone turrets and a package of Hammerheads from Forge World. Who knows where I got them or when. So they are up on Ebay for a buck each.

Labor Day Weekend

Off car camping with the wife’s friends in Acadia. The camping was a good time, nice place (smuggler’s den), good food, and short hikes close by. We had only one day of rain. I was warm, every one else was cold. Next time no matter the answer, I will bring my sub zero bag for her. The location was 8.5hrs away. That sucked and the drying and clean up of the gear continues.

The girls remain in Boston this week. ahh free at last!
