Introduction: I’ve been meaning to start a blog on this forum for a while, but always run out of motivation before I even make the initial post. Fresh off the heels of OFCC, I am motivated and have some free time, so I figured I’d give it a go and see what happens. For those of you who don’t know me, I played Warhammer Fantasy for many years, before personal life conspired with GW to put an end to that hobby. Wisetiger and Muskrat brought me back to the scene with Infinity in December, and I’m pretty much hooked. What do I hope to get out of this blog? 1. I hope that having some semi-public pressure from peers will motivate me to continue to improve, make progress on armies and terrain, and try new things (and also playing games I guess). I will want to have something to share, and that means putting paint to metal and models to the table. So thank you in advance for keeping up the pressure. 2. I had a fantastic time at this year’s OFCC and felt a sense of community that was lacking in the past. I want to continue to participate in this community year-round, and not just at events. This blog will a good way of doing just that. 3. I want to get input and insight into lists, painting and rules, and share my own thoughts, techniques etc. Participation is a two-way street. As much as I want to learn, I also want to teach and share, to the best of my limited abilities. If anyone has a question, let me know. To kick this blog off, I want to start with a priorities list. These are items that I want to get done in the next month, in no order: · Must Finish Painting- o 1x Imetron o 1x Ikadron o 2 X Slave Drones o 1x Unidron Plasma Sniper Rifle These are the backbone of any onyx army and will be used in almost every 300 point game. These are all base-coated and need details and basing. · Want to finish o Overdron Batroid o Umbra Legate Hacker o M-Drone Again, all of these are base-coated, but these are not as high a priority, but they are fun models I want to finish soon. Once these have been completed, I will finally have a fully painted 300 point list: Overdron 300 ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 110 OVERDRON Hyper-Rapid Magnetic Cannon / .

Thank you Chris for so many things. 1. For the fantastic work you're doing with mdf and acrylic. Keep innovating! 2. For bringing your guys down to play! It was great to meet you guys. 3. For the great game we played. Hopefully no more mutated gorgoses in the future. 4. For all the extras you gave us. They are much appreciated! and I guess some homebrew will be your incentive to come down and play in the Claflin Man Cave some day.

This morning I would have said I'm not even close. But as of now I'm am pretty much finished: The table is done, the army is done, the display board is done!

Scared Hitless: Aaron Musk Andrew Claflin Frazier Edmonds

I will be there

Perfect, thanks!

Eric, We're in the process of planning out our table and would like to know if an objective room needs to be incorporated. Thanks! Andrew

Scared Hitless wishes to challenge team Dice Age! Specifically, Drak wants a piece of Lustriangod. Bring it on!

I am in. And just to warn you all in advance, I will be bringing it.

List is in. I'm getting excited!

I've got 2 Kharibdyss, two bolt throwers, and 3 movement trays left to paint.

I may not have made my point clear enough. It's irrelevant as they are using this system to gauge the overall power level of the event and to have any outliers redo (as I understand it), not used for adding points to overall score as they do in EU/AU/NZ

Ok then, nevermind

I am disappointed to see the use of a comp system. At the very least, we should know the comp threshold. From the document "Comp Threshold: To have a legal army your comp score must be above a certain predetermined value." This is one of the problems with this system, it doesn't beat power gaming, just introduces a different kind. My list came to a 9.9 as calculated initially. Does this mean I can make it harder? (theoretical disposition, my list is already set)

Scarydog, Scared Hitless is interested in ordering some name tags as well. I tried to send you a PM, system said you couldn't receive any new messages... Inbox full? Shoot me a message if you can. Andrew Scared Hitless
