Also spent a little time re-basing older Heroclix for using in Superfigs, the minis-obsession of the week/month. I say obsession since I don't have the time/opportunity to play often, but a boy can dream. I'll be a gamer 'till the day I die, regardless of how often I actually get out there and get things done.
Speaking of which, I don't think I ever mentioned that a couple weeks ago, I did make it over to
warmaster's gaming mecca. We tried out a couple games. First was Heroclix Alpha, which is a cool little simpler version of Heroclix. Very keen. After that, the long-anticipated Song of Blades and Heroes, which is a highly ambitious title for what turns out to be a smooth, simple minis game. Highly recommended for people who don't like games too crunchy. Retains the core feel of a minis wargame without bogging down in obscure details or math. Next up: their awesome goofy post-apocalypse version.I do, however, need to start tossing older gaming books and things that don't have any significant resale value. The specter of moving again has driven that point home, with a bullet. Sigh. I'm so much of a pack rat, it hurts, but I need to face facts on this.
