Raindog Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 If you're talking about the clear chessex dice boxes, lots of people put pictures of some sort inside of them and use them as advertisement holo-panels. That is a great idea, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 You know, I privately questioned the viability of building terrain from dice boxes since who has more than a few lying around. Then I saw your massive stash of them yesterday, and have total faith in this plan. :) If I was desperate for more, Tap Plastics sells them for a dollar and change.

Raindog Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Thanks to Nate and Brehk, I built two more buildings today. Both are larger than the first. I am happy with my small collect. Now, for roof tops. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 My first 20 tokens are done. I took clear plastic coins from Tap plastic and used Pentel Roll'N Glue to adhere the card board tokens to the coins. I used clamps to help the process. Each coin costs. 40 cents, so the price is not bad I need more: Camo Markers, Impetuous, etc. But that will be another day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 In the hour I had before I had to go back to court, I assembled the structure for the roof the first building. I used thick card and 90 degree card frame trim, so the roof fits on and can be removed for play. I need to add some tile and decoration, and then, I will move to the next room. I designed the first building, so it can be placed on top of either of the next two buildings I made. That way, the terrain is modular and multi level. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raindog Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Piiiiiics raindog! :) I would love to, but that won't be likely until Thursday.

Raindog Posted August 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 This afternoon, I had a wee bit of time, so I tiled the roof structure and added a little decoration to the roof tops. Then, I started the structure to for the roof on the second building. It will be tonight's after work project.The left over stops will go to walkways or balconies for future two story buildings.Westrider's bulkheads arrived today, so I have plenty structures for builds.If you have any spare dice cubes sitting about and want to donate them to a good cause, let me know 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 It was a good modeling day. I have two roofs done. The buildings stack well. I need more thick card before I put a roof on the largest of the three buildings. Then, I built two gantry ways: One long, the other wider. They can connect to the three buildings (or to the tower platform below). Finally, I started work on a tower platform. It is two bulkheads tall with small catwalks on the side. I am tiling the top, but ran out of time before bed. I hope to have a pictures tomorrow, but if not, I will bring the lot of the projects to WOW on Sunday for people to take a look at…... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 The smoke from the forest fires killed my outdoor plans today. I worked a bit the basement. Then I finished the tower platform and made another building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Nice list! Wish I was coming tonight. Forward observe a unit then shoot it with missles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 @ Peanut, Marker does the same thing! I have learned a few tricks vs your snipers with the Reverend Custodiers... @Don't Panic, Cheep Hackers is the hallmark of the Nomad Nation…... Pinned the top of a Zond to the legs. Folks, Inifinity models are not plastic. Any part of substance must be pinned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Great Night of Infinity: I played Exile. Then, Exile played Don't Panic. 1. Exile learned DA ammo is potent. 2. It looked like Don't Panic had Exile with a Turn One LT kill, but Exile pulled a Rambo and turned the game! 3. My Terrain worked well, but I need at least two more building. Off to build more terrain! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 yea thats the last time i play without a hacker. not like it matters though if you cant make an armor roll lol. oh nate... lots of fun though. thanks pete for the game was pretty crazy! atlanta is truly a glass cannon, not sure if she's really my style. 43 points for a 1W 2ARM model is a bit risky! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indytims Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 DP, if you haven't yet, make sure you give Ajax a look. What a scary beast. I faced him last Thursday and he is scary. B4 with those twin-combirifles and effectively 3 wounds, that awesome Phys and Armor and... well... he was just a wrecking ball in our 120 pt Escalation League game that I faced him. I DID manage to kill him... but it was the only figure I killed. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 aleph has a lot of scary models. ajax is unfortunately the only scary one i dont own lol. im just testing things out really right now and see what my style is. ive seen what works so far though and myrmidons and post human sniper are the ones that have caused the most issues. ive been resisting bringing the nasty models out of 'not wanting to be a dick' but i think they will see table time soon just cause i want to see what they can do... pheonix seems like a good starting point! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisetiger7 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 So muskrat and I have played through the first 4 missions of Icestorm, and we're loving the game. We've been playing about 1 game a week. I have yet to play with my models (Yu Jing), as we're following the O:I box missions to a tee to get the best starter experience. Muskrat has 300 of both Nomads and PanO (recommended to expand the O:I box) and over 300+ Morats. Morats were his original main force, but playing through Icestorm, I think he's liking what PanO has to offer. Can't wait to start playing with my YuJing models! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I built another building last night ( still need to do the roof) and then started working on a few small out building / machinery pieces. Cheers, RD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 your buildings look great RD. i admit, i was a little hesitant how using dice boxes would look but man those really look GOOD! oh and fyi i have the classified deck... and ill bring your templates next week RD(if i dont go to seattle for the last 8th ed tournament...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raindog Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Picked up 20 more of the Zerboz boxes today. It is funny of the 31 I picked up so far, 6 have tan soldiers inside. The rest are gray. Weird. I should have enough for another building and plenty of extra drop terrain for 4x4 board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindog Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Red Castle called. The Intruder HMG I ordered was in. My wife came along. She said it was a nice looking store and was impressed they were playing Dolly Parton. Unfortunately, the old, not new model had been ordered. The store is going to make it right and reorder the model. I am very pleased. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
