Firestorm Armada

ddmooch

Wayland are having a summer sale and all firestorm armada stuff is up to 50% off

Krypter

Nice one, I was looking into this, but I kinda hate Wayland games.... Conflicted!

Krypter

I just looked and some stuff (I.e what I want) is not 50% off. Is there a discount code of some sort?

JamesThePervySage

i think its 50% off selected items......well all but the starter boxes =(

JamesThePervySage

its also cheaper to buy direct from spartan games if you go halves on the bundle

Having looked its not the starter boxes

Sim

Do 4 of us want a fleet?

ddmooch

Is it being bought with club funds or personal?

JamesThePervySage

i'm in for a fleet

Krypter

Personal funds I'd hope, otherwise the club is paying for people's hobby, buy thats a conversation for another thread.
I'm looking at getting the RSN fleet.

Sim

I hadn't considered club funds. Club is best placed to buy a gaming mat/accessories.

JamesThePervySage

i am still reading up on the fleets but i like the look of aquans although they don't really suit my playstyle =(

Krypter

I have no idea about play styles for the different factions though the Relthoza have got my interest as well now. Space spiders! What's not to like :-)

A brief summary of the core races for new players, does not be include alliances.

To make your choices harder Spartan have 2 new starter fleets up for preorder:

Hawker set looks cool!

Krypter

It does indeed!

Krypter

Just a FYI - the prices have risen a bit, £40 is now the average price of a starter fleet, the 2 fleet box is now £70 and the 4fleet box is £136.

George

Are people still up for playing this? I'm looking for a new game and having seen the planets Chris has created I really want to play a space game. Anyone up for maybe getting a starter box in the near future?

Krypter

Possibly in a few months, I'm too preoccupied with the new warmachine faction and dropzone commander atm.

Related: I got another couple of hundred points of DZC mostly painted today. When are you free?

George

tomorrow morning at about 10?

Jswiers

That was actually aimed at malcolm, but I'm sure I can find time for a game with you too.

Monday is my day off and I shall be painting rooms. So no good there.

Krypter

I was hoping to get down over the weekend but a certain skank ruined those plans, at earliest i can hope for Thursday

Still not managed to paint anything, though i'm breaking out my airbrush to respray my PHR tomorrow, going for a very pale, almost grey blue colour from the Vallejo Air range as base, then detailed to taste.

Managed to play James at all and see where we went wrong? ( if anywhere other than what we already figured out)

Jswiers

Did something go wrong?...

All I've really picked up is that I seemingly need less troops than other people. OR, people need to kill my troops more.
