    Where do we submit them?

    Please either submit them as a PM to me on Ordo, or to beal.ben87@gmail.com

    And yes, by soon I mean SATURDAY! Though, if you are late its not a big deal. Minor changes are OK post submission, I really just need to make sure there are no large errors in army composition. 

    Lists submitted to me will remain secret until the day of the event. Though you are all free and encouraged to share what you are bringing on the forums!

  2. Hey everyone,

    OFCC is right around the corner, so it is time to get into overdrive on all the painting projects that we have been procrastinating on. You can really get a lot done in 2.5 weeks, so don't fret! Here is my list of hobby tasks to finish before OFCC.

    1) Finish 70 bases for the dwarves

    2) Paint and floc 3 movement trays

    3) Finish painting some minor doodads on the Steam bomber and Grudge buster.

    4) Paint all the banners and musicians

    5) Paint the runesmith

    6) Paint a Stegadon (For someone else) - To a basic 3-color level

    7) Paint the trophies

    8] Create the trophy platforms and assemble the final product.

    9) Create more privacy screens for our Day-2 scenario

    I think that's about it. Not a crazy amount of work, but enough to keep my afternoons and part of my weekends busy. What are you all up to?

    Some pics of WIP:

    Just gotta bring a whole paint station with hood and filter. 😉

    That being said... The 20 minutes will end and we will go to judging. If you're the first pair to be judged, no. If you're the last pair to be judged, a little. Some folks have talked about fans and hair dryers.

    Sweet, washes always look better while they are wet anyways 😄

  4. I have been talked out of airbrushing since it would entail sending atomized paint into the hall destroying everyone's lungs except for my own. Cuz' I wear a mask and all that jazz.

    This is OK though, because I am mastering the art of dry-brushing.

    Is there a period of time between the end of the 20 mins, and the judging? IE, if I use a wash in the last 30 seconds, will it have time to dry naturally?

    Good or bad?

    I dont think space engineers is as good as minecraft, but this is from the perspective of minecraft + tons and tons of mods. SE has some neat qualities for sure. The coolest thing is that apparently whatever ship you build you can export as an STL file for 3-D printing, which is pretty amazing. The ship building is basically the coolest part of the game.

    Thanks!  I'll be hard pressed to get to PDX in the next three weeks, so I'll be on my own for getting (minimally) up to speed on the ruleset.  I just looked at them last night and its different here and there but familiar at the same time, e.g. "Fortitude (4)" = "4+ Ward save" in old speak. 

     

    One of the reasons for my cramped "gamer time" schedule BTW is that my 17 year old and I are going to GenCon next week which should get my gamer geek batteries completely topped up.  

    Actually, a Fortitude (4) == 4+ Regeneration in old speak 😄

    Aegis == Ward

    Same thing really, unless the opponent has lethal strike or flaming attacks.

    Have fun at GenCon!

  7. Satisfactory - 4/5

    I'm a sucker for world builders, this is a pretty amazing one. The main concepts of the game are almost identical to Factorio. Turn environment resources into stuff, and conveyor it around the map in some mad completely disorganized bowl of conveyor spaghetti. This game gets a huge mention because it looks beautiful, it plays from an FPS perspective, and it does a really great job of letting you build very complex 3-D assembly structures without too much hassle. The neat building menu and slick construction animations really make this game satisfying. The map (some alien planet) is absolutely gorgeous and massive, albeit static.

    The only downside is that there is no external threat sending waves of biters at your factory to punish you for your polluting ways. The game is still under development, so ill keep my hopes up.

    OK, I just paid my entry fee....now to look at the rules tonight and remember how to play...

    Alright, Welcome back!

    Let me know if you want to have a refresher match! I am unfortunately without a car right now, so something within Portland is somewhat my limit. I could be talked into riding out to Dice Age, but if it's hot ill probably complain about it a lot.

    Alternatively, just post in the meetup thread and we will find someone for you to match up with.
