Not doing nothing...

...just not doing anything exciting.

Hobby time has been at a premium the last 3 weeks or so, and what time I have spent has been pretty boring.

I magnetized some bases.

I rebased some 15mm Spartans.

And I got some 6mm Visigoths ready for priming.

But most exciting I actually got a game of Saga in. My unpainted Welsh, against Garry's Steppe tribes on a table with no terrain and a rising tide....not ideal for the Welsh. But this was my 1st game of Saga in about 10 years so it was good to have less to think about.

I obviously lost, an obscene set of shooting took my mounted Hearthguard out of the game very early on and with Garry's superior movement and no way for me to counter meant that he could bide his time to strike at the opportune moment. Though I did get off a successful taunt which was nice. Learnt some lessons and am looking forward to getting some more games in.
(And completing the painting of this force.)

There's a cream for that....

So.
I have the gaming itch again.
GW have dragged me back in. (40K is sooo sparkly at the moment.)
But I'm stopping at 2 Armies, OK maybe 3, yup definitely no more than 3 GW armies...

And there's other shineyness about.

I have some Saga stuff to get painted, in fact I've started, they're Welsh but that's OK.

And I've 15mm Greeks that need a system. L'Art de la Guerre (ADLG) seems to fill that need, of course I don't have enough Greeks so I need more. And then I'll need some other armies to fight, War of the Roses is sort of calling me here.

I still have 28mm Romans and Britons from when I wanted to play Warhammer Ancient Battles, Clash of Empires is my new choice of ruleset for those, as well as the Saxons and Vikings I've accidently bought lately. Maybe some Hail Ceaser for comfort.

And then there are the board games, so many board games, but not enough time to play them all.

I haven't really decided what direction this blog will go, probably just my incoherent ramblings and odd girly squeeee over something I find cool. Some tutorials will no doubt appear, some projects will be started but never completed.

Some weeks will get a post, some months may not.

It's not going to be a magazine for all that's new in the gaming world, too many people already doing that. It's just my way of telling people what I've been up to in the limited time left after a more than full time job, a healthy list of DIY and 2 young children have had their share.
