Tournament Report: Kill Team

Posted on January 5, 2012 08:32 am by Thor

Every few months we run a quick Kill Team tournament at my FLGS. There’s always a good showing and last night we had 16 of us for it. The last time we did this I ran five Chaos Terminators and got smoked in all three games. This time I opted for seven Plague Marines with two plasma guns. I gave one plasma gun infiltrate, one relentless and a bolter guy slow and purposeful.  Read more... (632 words, 1 image, estimated 2:32 mins reading time)

Painting: WIP Plague Champion & Magnet Mounter

Posted on January 4, 2012 08:54 am by Thor

This is the final model in this particular unit and he’s close to completion. Though further from completion are shots of his arms which are magnetized. I took the shots not so much to show the arms as the simple setup I have for the magnetized arms. The ‘arm holder’ is just some scrap stuff glued together with magnets on the end of the T. It’s great for holding the arms to prime, seal, let dry when using washes and to ensure my magnet polarity is always correct.  Read more... (90 words, 5 images, estimated 22 secs reading time)

Perception: Know Thyself

Posted on January 2, 2012 07:00 am by Thor

There comes a time for many gamers were you seem to reach a plateau. You hit a point where no matter what you do things never change. We’re human, we’re competitive, we want to excel.

Battle Report: Team Game with Chaos

Posted on December 30, 2011 07:00 am by Thor

Wednesday night at my FLGS I played a team game. January’s tournament will be a team game with 1,250 per-player and random pairings. The force org is restricted to avoid breaking it and make pairings easier. It’s 1 HQ, 0-1 elite, 1-3 troops, 0-1 fast attack and 0-1 heavy and you can add 1 more to any of the 0-1 selections. In my continuing effort to test things out with Chaos I brought this list, the same one I used last week: http://cmdctr.net/lists/611.  Read more...

Year in Review on the Gaming Front

Posted on December 29, 2011 08:24 am by Thor

I thought it would be interesting, to me if nobody else, to make use of all the match data that I keep. I’ve played for just over five years now and have recorded every game. So, let’s see how I’ve progressed, or digressed as the case may be, over those years.  Read more... (933 words, 1 image, estimated 3:44 mins reading time)

Naturally, as is the case with me when I can get something, I’m just not sure what to snag yet. At the moment I own:  Read more... (387 words, 1 image, estimated 1:33 mins reading time)

Google Friend Connect

Posted on December 19, 2011 11:19 am by Thor

I just found out that Google will be discontinuing Google Friend Connect for non-Blogger sites come March. Google is shutting down a handful of their services that just aren’t doing anything of note. Since this blog and Command Center are not Blogger sites that means come March I won’t be able to use the service and so I went ahead and removed it from both sites already. On the plus side it did fix the issue with the Google +1 button not rendering.  Read more... (117 words, 1 image, estimated 28 secs reading time)
