Quick catch up...

As I haven't been posted as often I thought I'd give a quick update as to what I've been up to.  Though I've been relatively quiet on here the same cannot be said for hobby time, which has seen the play through of The Devil In Iron campaign for Conan and we're now playing through Kingdom Death: Monster (I'll do a separate post for this as it deserves it's own spotlight but I have never gamed this much, such an addictive game) as well as squeezing in a game of Dark Crystal from River Horse Games and preparing the still boxed ships for Star Wars Armada which will be the next game we're going to run with.

Dark Crystal - a talisman style game but very thematic, I had the soundtrack blasting out while The Chamberlain became Emperor of Thra forever!

Other than sleeving lots of cards and PVA-ing cardboard there hasn't been much to show off for Star Wars: Armada however the recent Thrawn expansion did come with two Mandalorian Gauntlet Fighters so I gave them a quick lick of paint

I thought I'd also mention a couple of Kickstarters which I'm currently backing and may be of interest.  First up we have Pacific Rim from River Horse Games.




This is a game of Jaeger vs Kaiju based on the upcoming film plus the original film with 75-115mm pre-painted (not so)miniatures.  Personally I love a good giant monster movie and really enjoed the first Pacific Rim film so this was a must for me, especially as I've always been impressed with River Horse games.

The next game probably doesn't need and introduction as it's been quite heavily covered on various hobby sites, Batman: Gotham City Chronicles.  This is a Kickstarter exclusive game by Monolith and uses an updated version of the THS system which was used for Conan and on that alone we've gone all in, the game system is brilliant and will work fantastically for Batman.
