Wouldn't you actually have to wear pants in order to be referred to as 'cranky pants'? I'm just saying...

My goodies arrived today and were waiting for me in my game room. Assembly starts soon.

Ooh, I like that list a lot. It has some fun toys. My new stuff should arrive tomorrow so hopefully I will have them built by next weekend.

I could get the Spitfire Myrm by dropping the Myrm Officer; lower cost at 31 vs 35 and same SWC. Is that a better choice?

Hector with Plasma is what I took

Nice list. I have one similar to it but I need the Thorakites.

The Thorakites are where most of the cheap specialists are. I plan to add a F.O. and Paramedic (when I'm not running Machaon). Plus these are my cheaper troops. Adding in Thorakites I can get a second combat group. Also Dactyls bring cheap hackers and engineers. So there going to be added sometime soon.

How should I field the Enomotarchos teams? Group1: Hector, Machaon, and 2 Myrmadons with Chain rifles. Group 2: Phoenix, Myrmadon Officer, 1 Myrm Chain rifle, and Myrm Hacker. This is how I was thinking about running them. Is this good or am I missing some other combo? I'd rather not run the Hacker in the group but it will have to do for now.

I have the basic Steel Phalanx boxset coming. It has 3 Thorakites, the Myrmadon Hacker, Agema Missile Launcher and Eudorous. I also ordered up some robits - the Total Reaction HMG and Guided Missile bots. Also coming are Dracos and Scylla with their flame thrower Devabots. Lastly Atlanta the mighty sniper is also coming. I think that is all that I ordered for now. I need to find the Dire Foes Mission Pack #2 that has Thrasmeydes in it. He will make a great addition and I can also use him as my Spec Ops.

I am still awaiting my new figs from Miniature Market. In the mean time, here is a list that I wish to try out. Light on button pushing but without Thorakites I am limited...

Weather report for next weekend shows 92 on Sat and 95 on Sun. Thoughts about gaming? Too hot?

I am not going to make it tonight. Got to finish some house projects before the end of the world tomorrow!

I am looking for Infinity Aleph Steel Phalanx Myrmidons and Thorakite figs. Unassembled and unpainted preferred but will consider others depending on condition. I have most of the characters so I am not really looking for those. Please let me know what you have and what you want for them.

I should be there. Maybe someone can actually teach me how to play this damn game! ?

Well the only tragedy tonight was my horrible game play. Half of my force died on turn one in my deployment zone but they looked good doing it. I love the look of the Steel Phalanx. I have more figs on the way in the hopes to flush out my force.

Thanks for that info. Actually I was looking for more of today's car especially work or semi trucks.

Anyone know a good scale or model company that makes car and trucks in scale (or close enough) with infinity figures?

Following the OFCC I decided to work on a new army! Shocking I know... For Father's Day, my lovely wife bought me the new Aleph Steel Phalanx 300pt starter army. The list below are the figures from that box set. Once I get a few more figures, I will be able to run different lists. Steel Phalanx ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 2 PHOENIX Lieutenant Heavy Rocket Launcher, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Heavy Pistol, DA CCW. (2 | 40) AJAX 2 Combi Rifles, Nanopulser / AP Heavy Pistol, EXP CCW. (0 | 39) MYRMIDON OFFICER (Chain of Command) Boarding Shotgun, Nanopulser, Eclipse Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (1 | 35) MYRMIDON Spitfire, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (1 | 31) MYRMIDON Combi Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 25) MYRMIDON Boarding Shotgun, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW. (0 | 24) MYRMIDON Chain Rifle, Nanopulser, Smoke Grenades / Pistol, AP CCW.

Purchasing Bananas does not count. You have to earn them in the fiery heat of battle. Only then are you worthy of the coveted Banana!

I must admit, I really had fun taking control of your TAG and shooting Dr Wurm! Since you disabled my TAG wanna be.

Last Saturday I took my YuJing ISS to Glimpses for an Infinity Tournament. Pretty small turnout with only 4 players but it was a good event. I learned a ton. I really need to play at the 300pt level more often. It was hard transitioning from all of OFCC 200pt games that we played. I found myself playing way too slowly. All things considered I took 3rd place. Not sure how I managed that small miracle but yeah!

Does this event require fully painted?

It's for another project not GW related. I'll have to look at the start collecting box.

I am looking to build a hover platform for a model to stand on. It needs to be high tech looking. I was thinking something like what's in the Tau Coalition box or similar to the Tau drones. It should be between 25-30mm in size. Anyone have any bits or ideas that might work?

Okay, so day 2 is now in the history books. I really had a great time. Lost every single one of my games. Had fun getting my arse handed to me though. I think for me that this was the best OFCC. I was not a captain - thank God! I did not have to heard cats, wipe people noses, worry about who was having or not having a good time, who was playing nice with others and who wasn't, who was going to show on time or be late to their games and finally who was drunk. All I had to do was make sure I was good to go and boy was that refreshing. I'm tired but satisfied... Now it's time to plan for next year. Do I start a new force because that is what I do or do I add JSA to my YuJing? Oh the dilemma.
