Blustorm

Seeing as how there are no planned matches for tomorrow, I'm going to go ahead and cancel this Saturday session.

Wise move and totally prudent given the current situation: https://katu.com/news/local/oregon-surpasses-45000-coronavirus-cases-death-toll-nears-700 At this point, I am willing to be there on Saturday to open up if there are at least 2 people who want a game. If not, I'll probably end up cancelling.

I'll be there to pester @Weav and @jollyork while they learn those new Bloodbowl rules. Probably work on hobby stuff while I'm at it.

No worries. Scott dropped stuff off, we chatted for a bit, he left, then I did some reorganizing of the fans and heaters for the winter. I did some cleaning, took out the trash and left around 2:45.

I think it would be just you and me, chief. 😏 Seeing as how there are no games currently scheduled for tomorrow, I'll probably just hang out there from 1 - 3. I want to be open so @scottshoemaker can drop off the bitz boxes and dreamcast stuff that he mentioned in Rogue Trading. Feel free to stop by. That goes for anyone. 😎

I'm planning to open up WOW from 1pm to 5pm next Sunday, Oct. 25th. Please post here if you plan on attending. If necessary, attendance will be limited to 10 persons, in keeping with the state quarantine regulations. I'll likely do some cleaning and reorganization from 1-2pm, then hobby time for the remainder of the day.

I still like to think that one of the best values for GW miniatures in the early 90s were the packaged teams for Bloodbowl. 16 metal models for $20 (IIRC). About the only problem was that the sculpts for team positions (blitzer, etc) varied (1-2 poses per position, except for linemen) and aside from shaking the plastic container to shift the contents, you weren't completely sure about what models you were getting. Many was the time I would spend 1-2 hours scoping out all the blisters on the rack at the Mall 205 Things From Another World with my HS buddies.

Planning on opening the clubhouse again on Saturday, Nov. 7th for open gaming. There will be a 10 person imposed limit on attendance due to quarantine restrictions. Please post here if you plan on attending. Also note, if there are no games scheduled for this date, I will likely cancel the event. I'll update this post a week ahead of time if that happens. I'll likely be working on Necromunda terrain that day. Possibly working on the bases for my Bakunin Infinity crew.

I'm glad you have keys, because I bugged out around 11:50. Hope you guys had a good time! 😀

I'm planning on being at WOW from 10:15 to 12:30 tomorrow morning. I'm going to stop by Guardian Games and pick up some paint before I head over. The plan is an hour of club cleanup/organization and then 1hr+ of terrain prep. Feel free to stop by and say Hi.

Tobin was also one of the original attendees at the first 40k OFCC in 2005. I met him and Kevin Clements for the first time as they were walking up the street to WOW. As you say, horribly sad to hear this news. 😢

IMHO, the new Necromunda: Underhive wars game is probably the closest thing to having a virtual Necromunda table setup. You can't argue with the AI about whether or not a fighter has LOS to a target and there's no fudging on movement (moving 8.15 inches vs. actual 8 inches). The only thing that the game doesn't take into account is psychology (break tests, etc.), but as previously mentioned, we're getting there. 😁
