Started some wizards. Like the look of the inventor great da Vinci sort. Going call him da Vincible, he is ideal for the da Vinci tank I did recently. One of them comes with a ridiculous hat, ditched the hat and built up his head looks like a Mozart sort so going to call him the Conductor and stick him with the two musician sorts. They need basing and few touch ups but very pleased with results. The hat mentioned I am going to use on a goblin shaman should look humorous and all a bit mad.
Finally managed to play Mantic's Halo Flaspoint had 2 games both with 3 players. Very similar mechanics to Mantic's other great game Deadzone which I think I prefer but both are fun and well worth playing.
As the chap who I played as ally with said of the game:
"Managed two games of flashpoint. 200pts of Spartan 4s vs 200pts of Sangheli warriors in stronghold. The elites absolutely decimated the Spartans, constantly applying pressure and keeping them on the back foot to secure the victory.
Next up was the famous ODSTs vs the Spartans in oddball. Almost immediately the ODSTs came out swinging, the Bullfrog with a sword jumping into combat every chance he got, while the battle rifle armed troopers laid down impressively accurate fire against the Spartans.
Spartans however showed off their superior physical abilities, pressing the ODSTs back and ensuring they were constantly pushing against the tide.
The game ended 11-10 to the ODSTs."
Visit to Flodden Battlefield rather keen try wargaming Flodden. Well worth visiting.
Decided on having some pretty terrain on each side this Saga game. Been while since played Saga. Must say not overly impressed with Saga. Too many aspects seem unrealistic.
Crabs defeated had been thinking getting some crabs but having second thoughts...
