2013 Review part 1

So here we are again at the end of another year.  Personally, it's been an interesting 12 months...my better half landed a full-time job and has since been promoted...I was laid off then found another job with a much better company that's actually growing instead of slowly bleeding to death like my former one and most importantly, there has been an insane number of hobby releases.  So we'll go ahead and talk about that one.

Allies...Sometimes its best not to have friends

6th edition is a little over a year old now and I've had some time to consider some of the things I wasn't fond of when the new rules dropped.  After a year, several new codexes and attending a GT I've come to the conclusion that...yeah Allies still suck.

The Warstore Weekend Finale: Mechanicon Day 2

Back again with the end of my long-winded report on Warstore Weekend.  I'm just happy that I'm ending my write-up in the same month as Warstore Weekend.  Games 5 and 6 were on Sunday and after going 0-4 Saturday, my luck was bound to change...right?

The WarStore comes to NJ: Day 1

This weekend was WarStore Weekend here in NJ and seeing as I've heard so much about it, it got cheaper this year and it's literally the next town over from me, I just had to go.  It was really fun finally having some aspect of the gaming community as a whole acknowledging NJ exists and everyone involved put on a great convention.

Welcome back, ye few but faithful.  Today I finish up my initial impressions of the Imperium's finest, the Space Marines.

Space Marines Initial Impression Part 1

My new Space Marine codex came a few days ago so I've had a little time to look at it and I've managed to come up with my usual self-serving over-opinionated thoughts about it.  Once again I've been missing for a few months so I'm taking the opportunity to return again to the interwebs as another voice among the many hobby blogs.  Anyway...here we go.
