Weekly Update #1

Hey All!

As promised, here is the very first weekly update I have for you!  I spent this morning enjoying a little quiet in my dorm and took advantage of that to get some hobby work done for this weekends festivities at Treefort Games in Fayetteville, GA.

Here are some shots of what I've completed so far:

 I purchased some Aegis R&Ds a while back, but never really got around to getting them ready with all of the college madness starting.  So here they are, all built and washed, ready for some priming and painting!  These are definitely high on the priority list because of this weekend, but not as high as my Cerberus...

I have wanted to build this thing since I ordered it in July!  I love the look almost as much as I like my RSN cruisers in general.  They are the powerhouses of my fleet, and I can't wait for this guy to get some paint on him and bring some pain to my opponents.  Hopefully anyway...

And then there is this lovely bunch.  I know that there has been a new wave of Shroud Mages released and that I have the Mk I box set for them, but I really like their look a lot.  I honestly cannot wait to try this system out and get stuck in with my Mages.  They were great to put together, and really my only complaint about any of the models - including the Destroyer blister I bought to add some punch to the frigates - are the frigate models and their lack of scale on the turrets.  They're huge for those little ships!  Aside from that though, everything is awesome looking on them.  I have to say that my favorite models of the bunch that I have so far are probably the destroyers.  I like their slightly higher prow rams and just their whole profile, although the Mk I battleship is awesome looking too.  So are the cruisers... Heck everything is good looking!

Cannot wait to go to Treefort this Sunday and get some games in for the first time in probably a month or so.  Bringing a friend along to try and introduce him to the world of Tabletop wargaming, so hopefully that goes well.  Also, I am thinking about ways to get a Dreadball group going within my group of friends here, seeing as Season 3 is about to come out and that game is always awesome looking.  Anywho, until next time, Tarum et clama dimit belli canes!
