  1. Another excellent podcast! I look forward to catching up on more.
  2. Yeah, I had to clear app cache and it worked. This did mean that I lost the lists I built. Fingers crossed this isn't an issue each day.
  3. Hey Arnie, No worries dude! That's great. Have a great Christmas. Cheers
  4. Cheers @Hebroseph Really appreciated mate!
  5. Just a quick question that check my understanding. Does the Earlbad battalion ( mw on 6s to hit) also affect any mounts like stonhorns and mourfang? Cheers!
  6. Hey Arnie, Do you know the location in Bristol this will be hosted at? Cheers Chris
  7. Cheers @Souleater The Azzure app won't let me validate the list as I haven't assigned the command trait so I wrongly assumed that he could then not be your general. Silly app! Thanks for the clarification.
  8. Morning, Please excuse the question but I just want to double check that I'm not a banana. Katakros is a named character and thus can't be given a command trait. The legion traits state that your general must have that specific trait. Does this mean that Katakros can't be your general? I'm not very good with these kind of things so please help enlighten me! Cheers
  9. At a guess do we think these will be the predefined Stormhosts ?
  10. Do we have the points costs for the new mounted heroes? I though I had seen them somewhere but I can't seem to find them. Cheers
  11. Does anyone else have no pictures with this article?
  12. Just wanted to drop by and same a massive thanks for putting this together. We have had great fun playing Skirmish lately and it has been made a load easier due to the work you have put in. Cheers Chris
  13. @RuneBrush If the spoon doesn't fit in the car on the way back I'm leaving you in Bristol to make room.
  14. Me neither, It's Charis & mine anniversary that weekend. Shame!
  15. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any half decent accommodation nearby or in the city that is only a bus ride away? Cheers
  16. Do we have any rumours of the pre-order date for the new Stormcast release?
  17. Looking forward to this. Please can you pop Chris Denmark on your list. Transferring tonight. Cheers Edit: Paid
  18. These were taken off the Blood Bowl Community page on FB. Think they were shown at the open day @ WHW yesterday
  19. These are looking great! I love that banner.
  20. That is looking great @Splitbristle. You certainly don't look like a bad painter. I love the basing especially.
  21. @Splitbristle Ops, Completely forgot about Tuesdays. I look forward to seeing your nurgle army! Don't think I will have 1000pts by the start of November but will definitely be past 500! Oh, I feel your pain. I lost my cool after about 10 mins of stationary traffic. If I get time I might try and pop by Pigmar on this Tuesday or next to see how we go about booking tables and borrowing terrain.
  22. Cheers @Splitbristle. I'm not happy with the Stormcast but they will defiantly be ready for November at that is my main concern. Do you think you will have enough painted by then? I do love my elf army but don't have to patience at the moment to rebase them. I'm keen to start an army that is going to have some AOS releases. In the mean time I'm going to continue squeezing out some Stormcast. We could do a Bath games night @ GW or Pigmar. Pigmar has the bonus of a bar which I find conducive to good gaming. I did pop into town on Thursday, but had forgot that North Parade is closed so ended up spending an hour in traffic. Urghh!
  23. In the past I have tried to get into the hobby that I use to love to play as a teenage kid. Some attempts have been more successful than others. Three years ago I managed to paint up a sizeable high elf army. I enjoy painting and wanted to do a good job. It took a year to paint and by the time I got near it's completion my interest waned and real life took hold. The large of rules and time everything took wasn't compatible with my lifestyle and short attention span. If you want you can check out my old painting blog over at Bad Dice forums: http://baddice.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=2099 I was excited to hear about the launch of AOS. Firstly, the 4 page rules and "dumbed down" game play sounded appealing. I liked the idea of everyone starting out together, levelling the playing field a little. However I never got around to sticking my toe in. What spare hobby time I did have was spent painting the odd miniature here and there but never anything AOS. It wasn't till last month when away for a short break in Cornwall I popped into their local GW store. I would normally keep away from stores a few years back for fear of the pushing selling staff; however my recently experiences have actually been really positive. We had a good chat with the staff there (I think his name was John?), the Mrs showed an interest and picked out a few models she likes and kindly brought me the AOS start box . This time I thought I would try and approach things a little differently than my last foray into hobbying. I tweeted in hope of finding local players who fancied a game and a beer, luckily this was re-tweeted out by a few people in the community with big followings and have now arranged to hook up with a few local players. We have agreed to meet and play a few smallish skirmish games so we can get playing and build up a little at a time. I also popped into my local GW store in Bath and had a great chat to Robin. He has pointed me in the direction of a local club as well as inviting me down for his Thursdays game night at sore. My plan is to drop by both in the coming months. I am planning on getting the Stormcast from the starter set painted quickly so I can play straight away. Whilst doing this, it allows me time to get to find out more about the story and decide what army I would like to a better standard. I have got myself the handbook, the war storm novel and the getting started book (which was surprisingly good, as well as excellent value). I am well on my way to doing this. This week I have have got 8 liberators and one Prosecutor finished. The Mrs really liked the "Hammer Angel" model, so that was the first one to hit the desk. I have also bumped out one base colour & wash on the 3 Retributors and the 2 Liberator-Primes and my plan is to finish these for the end of the week. Again not my finest work but it will get me playing and enjoying other parts of the hobby. I have started on the base and hope to have that finished this week .... if the filler ever dries. If you have any helpful hints or advice about getting back into the hobby I would love to hear it. And if you live local please feel free to get in touch, it would be great hearing from you. Cheers Danish
