I'm a librarian. Answering questions is so engrained it's nearly instinctual.

Duffy, Christopher. The military experience in the Age of Reason, 1715-1789. Interesting look at the soldier's eye view of war in the 18th century, from recruiting and barracks life to fighting in battle. A nice change from the usual military history focusing on tactics, strategy, and politics.

Tillamook Forest Center is worth a stop if you're on Highway 6. Ditto the Tillamook Air Museum, if only to gawk at the size of the building. I like the Leach Botanical Garden, but I'm not sure how much it would appeal to a teenager. It's probably a bit out of the way, too. If the weather's clear, though, Powell Butte has some good hiking and views. If you head out the Gorge way, I recommend the Gorge Interpretive Center in Stevenson, WA; the Hood River fruit loop; and the Western Antique Air and Automobile Museum in Hood River. (Especially the fruit loop, since we're heading into apple season.) One of my favorite drives is to do a loop out highway 26 to the Hood River Valley and come back on I-84. Lets you hit Timberline Lodge, too.

They're definitely rocking a Necron vibe. I want to see some kind of bone giant or something, though.

GW Lead Belcher vs AP Platemail primer
jesselowe replied to Brother Glacius's topic in Artificier's Forge
I've always had a bit of trouble painting over the Platemail. It might work better if you wash it then do a light matte coat before trying other paints. -
anyone interested in a large cryx army?
jesselowe replied to Brother Glacius's topic in Rogue Trading
Not interested myself, but I shared this with some local Warmachine players. -
Apparently they just bought a little game store in Newberg. Maybe they were just tired of dealing with Portland City Hall - or maybe once you're in the game biz, you can never really get out...
-
I have the Carrion Empire box, and I'd like to trade the Flesh Eater Courts half if anyone has the Skaven half to spare.
-
Maybe try doing the casing in dark silver and the aquila in a white that matches the armor. Actually, these are reminding me of rebel snowtroopers on Hoth. Maybe take some cues from that.

Make sure the base contrasts with the rest of the figure, too. Right now the boots kind of blend in.

Saga of Leaves And Rain (General wargaming blog)

Little updates: https://jesselowe.blogspot.com/2019/03/comic-strip-monsters.html Anyone else interested in Monsterpocalypse 2.0? -
I am not the tournament organizer, I'm just signal boosting. AFAIK, though: Standard steamroller, with death clock, as per the current steamroller packet. As for questions not answered there: What is "Base line?" Specialists are no longer a thing. Final standings might be based on average of CP and AP as tiebreakers, but you'd have to check with the TO. No house rules I know of. Objectives and scenario elements will be provided. I recommend bringing a printout of your Conflict Chamber list, just in case. I don't know about wifi at the venue. The only incentive to keep playing after you lose is because you enjoy playing the game. Check with the TO about the prize kit and prize support. Here's the facebook page for the event: https://www.facebook.com/PdxOpen/

If you're interested in competitive Warmachine or just want to get three or four games down in one day, check out the PDX Open on March 2nd. Capped at 64 players.

That's the best thing I've seen all day.

IIRC, you may want to seal it with something like PVA glue first, so the wood doesn't suck up too much paint.

Saga of Leaves And Rain (General wargaming blog)
jesselowe replied to jesselowe's topic in Blog for the Blog God!
Forgot about this thread. My last three entries: https://jesselowe.blogspot.com/2019/01/game-night-black-powder-2-napoleonics.html https://jesselowe.blogspot.com/2019/01/warmachine-tournament-2019-01-13.html https://jesselowe.blogspot.com/2019/01/weekend-report.html -
Is anyone playing/interested in playing at Red Castle or the Eastport Games Workshop store?

Figured I'd share. 2019: New Year, Fresh Start

If he's willing to make that much money, I don't think the sympathy was all that deep.
-
The most important question is: What do the Saga dice look like?!
-
So... anyone gotten a game of this in yet?
-
Stellaris patch 2.2 (LeGuin) has brought some major changes to the gameplay. So far I'm enjoying it - it seems to encourage slower expansion.
-
Color me intrigued.
