Welcome
everyone to another the Neoscream's Life post. This is my weekly post of life
(what should hopefully be safe to talk about), what games I have been playing,
what I have been painting and what I have watching and reading. The current
opening pictures are of Cardfight Vanguard clans. This week is Bermuda Triangle
from the Magallanica nation.
“Blog
News”
As
you can see above, I have massively reworked this post's introduction. It also
talks about the weekly opening picture so new people can understand why it is
there and gain a little understanding about it. Hope people enjoy the new up to
date one.
"Life"
After
work on Monday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK like normal. This time I was
playing Thunderbirds Co-operative Board with Michael and Dave. I had tried
doing a couple of solo games during my week off and sadly I last both games,
however we managed to win. They was a lot of close calls and good luck. After
Thunderbirds we played a game of Boss Monster, which Michael won.
During
the week my manager, the baka Immad, was teaching me a new word from his
language, kutti. I will not say here what it means, but he always calls a
certain person who has returned back to BK. I decided to call her Cute Kutti.
She seemed to like it. I could say oddly, but she always seems to prefer people
being nasty to her than people being nice/kind to her. Maybe I should keep on
calling her that.
On Saturday before going to the Cardfight Vanguard tournament, I briefly meet up with Richard and Darren H for coffee.
“HeroClix”
On Thursday I went down
to York House for HeroClix. Last week’s scenario was “Couples Night”. 500
points. The team must have a comic book or other media couple (Cyclop and Jean
Grey for example). Both partners gains the others Keywords and they are able to
carry each other regardless of symbols (and does not suffer the -2 movement
doing so). Yes that means that the tiny Wasp and carry the colossal Giant Man.
The couple I went for is a newish married couple, Shadow Cat (Kitty Pryde) and
Star-Lord. My team were:
Shadowcat (204 Marvel
Wolverine and the X-Men) 70 + Guardians of the Galaxy (ATA) 4 = 74
Star-Lord (030 Marvel
Guardians of the Galaxy comics) 110 + Guardians of the Galaxy (ATA) 4 = 114
Groot (051 Marvel
Guardians of the Galaxy comics) 100 + Guardians of the Galaxy (ATA) 4 = 104
Rocket Raccoon (052
Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy) 80 + Guardians of the Galaxy (ATA) 4 = 84
Drax (011 Marvel
Galactic Guardians) 121 + Guardians of the Galaxy (ATA) 4 = 125
=501 points
On the first round I was
up against Michael was using also using a Lady Liberators (and technology
Avengers too) themed team who were (I think):
Was this really a couple? |
Invisible Woman (057
Marvel Captain America) 110
Spider-Woman (037 Marvel
Chaos War) 82
Wasp (030 Marvel Chaos
War) 77
Black Widow (001 Marvel
Avengers Assemble) 110
100 AVX001E Captain
America (001 Marvel Avengers vs X-Men) 100
=479 points
I managed to win this
game. Also Darren S won his game against Adrian. On the second round I was up
against Darren S who was using a Teen Titans themed team who were:
Starfire (077 DC Teen
Titans) 114
Superboy (026 DC Teen
Titans) 158
94 D10A009 Blue Beetle
(009 DC HeroClix 10th Anniversary) 94
Raven (030 DC Icons) 73
Robin (001 DC Teen
Titans) 50
=489 points
Like normal Darren S
won, however I did take out Blue Beetle. Also Adrian won his game against his
brother Michael. On the third and final round I was up against Adrian who was
using an Excalibur themed team who were:
Star-Lord (001 Marvel
Guardians of the Galaxy movie) 95
Colossus (002 Marvel
Wolverine and the X-Men) 100
Shadowcat (204 Marvel
Wolverine and the X-Men) 70
Longshot (009 Marvel
Wolverine and the X-Men) 75
Cerise (023b Marvel
Wolverine and the X-Men) 60
Pete Wisdom (022 WizKids
Marvel LEs) 100
=500 points
I managed to win this
game with easy. I think the fact I could not be Outwited had a factor. Also
Darren S won his game against Michael.
This week’s scenario
will be “Memories of the Four”. 500 points. Most have four characters, no more,
no less. No figure over 150 points and one figure must have been a member of
the Fantastic Four.
“Loot Crate”
No,
I have not gotten the November's Crate, I think they have not started sending
them yet. I just giving you some Loot Crate news for once. From next week they
will be starting the Loot Anime crate. This will be a new monthly mystery
subscription crate service featuring an assortment of figures, collectibles,
manga, apparel, accessories, snacks and more from some of your favourite anime
and manga series. The closest to this they ever done was the Titan theme carte they did in March 2014. I might swap from the normal crate to this one. However if I
do that, I will also go for the Wearable Level Up. I have no idea if the theme
of Loot Anime will be the same as the standard Loot Crate like the Level Ups or
not.
“Cardfight
Vanguard Tournament”
On
Saturday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for a Cardfight Vanguard
tournament. This time they were running a doubles tournament. My partner was
using an Aqua Force deck while I was decided to use my Cosmic Hero Dimensional
Police deck over my new Genesis deck as it was the deck I felt more comfortable
with and they was a ton of new players. In fact there was twenty five players
turned up for the tournament. Wow, Shell's fame must be attracting people to
travel to our little store.
We
draw our first game, lost the second two games, won the fourth game and then
the team of Shell and Keaton beat us. Sadly we did not get into the top four
playoffs. There seemed to be a good of clans including Spike Brothers and Murakumo.
With
the booster I brought, got, won and traded I managed to improve my Cosmic Hero
Dimensional Police, Genesis and Touken Ranbu decks, finished my Angel Feathers
deck and maybe improve my Nova Grappler deck too.
"Painting
and Converting"
For
this post I have for you all Mallet and Marbles from Guild Ball and a Valkyrie
in Jet mode from Robotech RPG Tactics.
On
Friday's post I should have for you all a full set of a Valkyrie and a Valkyrie
in Guardian mode from Robotech RPG Tactics. During the week I managed to finish
painting four Arcadia Quest figures. I also under coated a bunch of a bunch of
Zombicide figures and a Kingdom Death Monster figure. Below is an image of my
painting table at the end of last Sunday night or the start of Monday morning. Sadly this time I for got to do it until just before posting this so more has been done.
