Well bend over. 250 for a box set. You will need at least 2 to play. Support boxes are 50. 9 rhinos for 45 for every mechanized marine detachment.
Marines are based of 40mm circles
The 4 minis I bought at Fall In have been cleaned, primed, and washed. I have purchased minis from this line before. These where very poorly done. Massive mold lines! Last time I buy from them.
Walls got glued down. Defense line and roads got pulled up. Hill section cut out.
Over a year ago I scored some 15mm painted ACW. I wanted the Cavalry from the lot. The plan was to cherry pick it, rebase for RF&F, and sell it. It was a goal for this year. Nothing happened. Chicago Matt scored 6 bases of CAV and 12 of INF for me in a Midwest HMGS yard sale type thingy. Same story. Cherry pick, rebase and sell.
Well shit, now I have to do it. All of it is taking up space. It is easy to do and today is endless meeting about nothing with no one asking me jack all. One must be productive while one's ass is flattened by Teams meetings.
The biggest and best Fall In in a long time. Numbers were good with above avg games on Thursday and Friday. The parking lot wasn't full on Saturday. You could find a spot with little to no effort. So HMGS is not back to the good old days yet. At least things are moving in the right direction, numbers wise.
The HOST was the HOST. Bar service slow and they appeared not to care. The restaurant opened at 8?? There was no beer cart girl. The food was ok, service sucked. No one planned to staff the food locations. Beer was not served at the food locations throughout the day. Some rooms had no heat. The rest of the HOST was in good shape.
I only bought 3 minis from the vendors. Then I bought everything from a dude selling Warmaster. He had two others pick thru all he had. One got the Dark Elves and another the Keslev. He wanted to unload and sort of knew what he had. I think I could have gotten all of it for 600. I paid 300 for a Chaos army, Elves, Dwarfs, large Undead, 800-1000 points of orks, and large Bretonnian army.
He had Epic the next day. Mostly junk. Again people were cherry picking whatever they didn't have. The value was in the whole thing. Parted out into detachments I saw looking over a shoulder about 250-300.
I got a free chessex case. Which was traded for beers.
One last minute drop put us at 13 players for Epic. A new guy found and joined the FB Epic Times. Jon took 1st with Necrons, Dave 2nd with Necrons, Coach had 3rd with Dark Eldar, Eric just cheated down to 4th with speed freaks. Eric play on the championship table.
I took Traitor Guard. Friday night I got two pre tourney pick up games. I played Chicago Matt's Word bearers. Lost 2-0 TSNP and DTF. I played Shawn's knights. Lost 2-0 TSNP and DTF. Tourney day I sat round two. My kid was going to be the 14th player. Mom dropped her for playing on the phone in the middle of the night. Game one was against Chris' speed freaks. Lost 2-0 TSPN and DTF.
In round 3 I played, I can't remember. Won 2-0 TSNP and DTF. In that game I deployed everything I could as garrison. Almost the whole army.
I gave up 2 points all tourney, got 2 points and took 12th place.
The Vraks traitor guard list is a mess. The list and QRF is half done. Stuff is missing thru out. I am thinking of taking it over to finish it or pump in some favor.
