OK - looks like my chore list to get done by wednesday has stacked up over the weekend - I will not be able to make it tuesday - NEXT WEEK though… I will be looking for a couple games possibly. -d

- I will be looking for some learning games in the next month or so till OFCC - 40k. I have my army put together - and I am slowly painting what needs to be done. But I need to learn how to play 7th LOL (agh!…details - details). anyhow, I will be looking for a game o'40k 2k (OFCC style) with my Eldar wraith-kin force. I can probably be there by 4-ish… but not firm on that yet. -d

I saw the movie for the 2nd time last night - still love it. I couldn't help but think…that the movie reminds me of GMing an RPG for my typical set of players. "you want to play a talking Raccoon? …what?… a tree?… seriously a big brute that speaks with a rather large vocabulary?… ugh…." great fun!

meh… but I have not been playing x-wing either… at this point I would rather play BFG - just because I have the rules and figures I need lol. looks cool… but not touching it. -d

why no pictures?

---- shouldn't it be… 1) slap you…. 2) pat you on the shoulder in sympathy…. 3) repeat … repeat …repeat?

The model used to have 2 crew separate of the gun - sounds like GW's newer model has it molded together. I would say that the eldar player was right based on the history of the figures used for this crew. I think this is a case of GW rules not quite in line with what the designers created in the most recent support weapon kit. all in my opinion - as I play the support weapon crew… but with the older metal figures - which is 2 crew - and a separate gun platform. -d

status? :D

anyone else notice this? d/l'ing it now. http://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/blog/blog.jsp;jsessionid=7D4C4C798E1E087E77213CF8398FE191?_requestid=8223755 -d

Nope - sorry - those are scatter lasers - the pulse laser is the larger falcon main gun... Sorry. :( The heavy weapon sprue doesn't have the pulse laser. It's the long one - kinda looks like the bright lance - but bigger.

Maybe ... I can't be sure... I don't remember them being in the set. - I have one from the old prism set. Photo?

Plastic or metal - doesn't matter to me. The main gun from the falcon. It's not on the normal heavy weapons sprue. I have a pile of heavy weapons... But no pulse lasers. :(

Looking for six eldar pulse laser bits. I can't seem to locate the ones I should have... So hoping to find a few here :).

Looks great - can't wait to see it in person. -d

I'll work on getting a couple dozen games of 7th in - before OFCC lol. And I played one learning game of 6th. It looks tough to me - but I know nothing really about the current meshing of rules and things. -d

Most is already painted - I will plop some ws turrets on some falcons I dot use (painted long ago) - the wraith knight and the hornets are the biggest paint projects. - everything else needs nothing or minor touch ups. ;)

awesome - I may be interested in one of those snow/alpine ones.

Ok - I sat down last night and reviewed all my painted minis… along with the few things I think I can get done for OFCC. Here is my list… slight adjustments and critique welcome. Hoping to get a few dozen games in to fine tune my plans. I am wondering about using a wall… not sure where to get the points yet - but I did pick up a defensive wall (Eldar version of a Aegis Defence Line) from Cmon last year that is unpainted. Using BattleScribe … not sure how accurate it is yet. I will double check all the points this weekend - but it comes in at 2,000 exactly. I have no idea as to what the rating may be as of yet. -d ----- Eldar: Supplement - Iyanden + HQ + * Spiritseer The Wraithforge Stone, Witchstaff (gets me the Iyanden powers… to allow the wraiths to run-shoot/shoot run…etc.) * Wraithseer (IA:A 6E) (Ancient Doom, Fearless, HQ Requirement, Monstrous Creature, Psyker (Mastery Level 1), Spirit Mark) D-Cannon, Ghostspear, Wraithshield (*) (big target… walks with larger WG unit… ) + Troops + * Wraithguard (Troops) (Ancient Doom, Bulky, Fearless) * Wave Serpent Serpent Field, Shuriken cannon, Twin-linked shuriken cannons * 5x Wraithguard 5x Wraithcannon * Wraithguard (Troops) (Ancient Doom, Bulky, Fearless) * Wave Serpent Serpent Field, Twin-linked scatter lasers , Twin-linked shuriken catapults * 5x Wraithguard 5x Wraithcannon (Both of these are to support the walking unit - either on the flanks or by moving fast and creating a beach-head… point of the spear.) * Wraithguard (Troops) (Ancient Doom, Bulky, Fearless) * 10x Wraithguard 10x Wraithcannon (walking - running - with Wraithseer / spirit seer - core/hub block) + Fast Attack + * Hornet Squadron (IA: A 6E) (Acute Senses, Scout, Skimmer Assault, Star Engines) * Hornet 2x Pulse Laser * Hornet 2x Pulse Laser * Hornet 2x Pulse Laser (flanks… or edge clean-up… tank hunting or big target hunting - speed and hopefully overwhelming force when on target - also to be a yin to the wraith knights yang) * Nightwing Interceptor (IA: Aero) (Agile, Deep Strike, Shrouded, Supersonic, Vector Dancer) 2 Bright Lances, 2 Shuriken Cannons (To handle any other flyers… at least keep them a bit honest. If there are no flyer targets - this will go tank hunting) + Heavy Support + * Wraithknight (Ancient Doom, Fearless) Scatter laser, Two Heavy Wraithcannons (I had the sun cannon on him… but wanted a bit more points and used it elsewhere - the 2 wraith cannons seem solid enough) * Wraithlord (Ancient Doom, Fearless) Ghostglaive , Starcannon , Two flamers (fluffy… running around with his glaive smacking things - and lending support if a unit gets locked down in HTH. I don't expect much… maybe he will stick with the Wraithseer as a bodyguard lol)

nope… don't see anything at this time that makes me wanna buy - thanks for the opportunity. :)

Damn - now I have to go look at FW stuff and see - I'll let you know by tomorrow ;)

if needed… I have space for folks to stay… but we are south of portland (Hubbard - just south of wilsonville). I will be going to OFCC - sat/sun for the team event for sure - as of yet I have not taken time off for friday (as I get off work at 3pm) . but I am pondering it. Anyhow, I have a yurt that is open for now. -d

cool - thanks for the extra leg work Pretre :)

yeah - ebay… got a good price on it. Less than the other auctions I had been following for years. Plus for me was there were 2 or 3 other of the new FW phantoms up in auction at the same time - I think I got lucky wanting the older model. :) I have found the d-cannon on ebay - (won that too) … and I found a place online that makes a couple other parts for the older Phantom as well (arm and warlock head I am interested in getting). -d

Looking to head up a Black Friday Apoc game this year - I need to get this guy done for it :D I also have a d-cannon on order for it that should be here next week :). -d

I finally got me a big - BIG - Titan... It only took me a few decades to get it. Hope to have it table ready come Black Friday :) -d
