Death Squads Week 1 Campaign April 2009

PERFECT! About all I'm up to at the moment is staring mindlessly at ALL the pretty photos. Thanks, Da Bank!

Thanks and No problem, i took over 30 pics. Unfortunately, I only took 2 or 3 of my game. LOL

Wow, those are some great pics. Makes me want to just dive right in and play. Very cool!

@Ethlorien..thanks. I will keep them coming each week. Next week we play 2 games so there should be more action.

Awesome, can't wait to see more (I love it when pics are viewable here at work).

Seeing these pictures make me want to play (like I said earlier) and that's something as I must admit I've never played a sci-fi tabletop game. Tried my hand at the Star Wars Tabletop Game by West End games back in the 80's (too young then to understand the rules) and I played a game of 40K at a friends house a decade ago (and I believe we got 1 round into it).

This seems something more to my liking... You also seem to be playing with only a handful of minis as that's probably all I could afford to buy right now (and by that, I mean all that my wife would let me buy).

@Ethlorien...Thanks again! Yes, we play at a squad level meaning no more than 20 models, just like Mordheim. When you start a squad you normally would have only 10 or 12 models.

If you can play any GW game then you can play Death Squads.

Trust me, I know the wife thing. She is a bit pissed at me, as I have purchasing 40K models so we can play this game as everything I have is Fantasy based. LOL.

In our game if you go buy a box of IG you have a squad ready to go, of course you need to personalize your heroes a bit.

Keep me posted if you think you have time to play a campaign and I can get you the rules or if you have "skills" in graphic arts and designing artwork, counters, tokens and or cards I could use those skills right now. My only skills are game mechanics, balance, rules, and keeping things moving forward. Editing and all that other cool computer stuff is not my speciality.

The wife of one of the Guys I used to game with, Tom Berg, NOT ONLY encouraged him to buy toy soldiers; she credited War gaming with saving her marriage. Prior to gaming, Tom's hobby was finding little, out of the way & usually illegal bars, meeting strange women, & arriving home cover in scratches & bite marks. GOD BLESS KREIG SPIEL!

Hmm, well if I can get a few friends together I'll let you know, thanks a lot!

As for skills - yeah, I'm an ideas person myself. I get by on a computer, for certain, but I think I have little I would call 'skills' in the graphics department.

@Deaf - Oh, I know what you mean. There's a lot worse out there I could be doing then playing with little men (like playing with little women). But, I think it's more a case of after Warhammer, DnD, World of Warcraft... The time and money to devote to another hobby might just upset her.

It'll come to the point where it will be cheaper if I just took up drugs and hanging out with loose women!!!

@Ethlorien: Ok PM me and send me your email address and we can talk off line about this.

@Deaf...You are a nut! In a good way.
