Neoscream's Painting Table: 18th of August 2017

Hi everyone and welcome to another blog post. This week I have been mostly drained of energy. On top of feeling tired, I have also been suffering from over the week so far, headaches, sore throat, inflamed glands, constipation, arm pains and a bad allergic reaction. And I am still working a normal shift.

OK, it is time to show off my third display cupboards, so let us start with the bottom shelf.


This shelf holds a ton of my Transformer Comic book small figurines.


The middle shelf holds a ton of my anime and Pokémon figurines.


On the top shelf has a bunch of larger figures and some Lego (fake Lego) figures too.

Next week I will be the fourth cupboard.



Painting

This week I have managed to finish off a tower for my castle terrain, two Tengu Harrier and a Tengu Mage and Surprised hero version from Arcadia Quest.


I am currently painting a Tengu Samurai and a Hedgehog from Stonehaven, Serious hero version from Arcadia Quest.




Gaming

Mansions of Dragoborne

On Monday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for a game of Mansions of Madness with Bob and Wai-Yin. We retired the second scenario again as the last time myself and Bob did this we failed. Sadly we failed again, but we did get a lot closer. We did manage to get everything we needed, we just ran out of time. Next time we should be more experience to do it, we just have to remember to split up.

Afterwards, myself and Wai-Yin had our first game of Bushiroad's new TCG, Dragoborne. Think of it as Magic the Gathering meets Duel Masters, but with dice as well. After Luck and Logic, I was a bit reluctant of trying another brand new game. However, with the buzz going on I decided to try it out. Wai-Yin was using the Dragon deck which she was borrowing from Anthony, while I was using the Werewolf deck I just bought. Wai-Yin managed to win without any experience with the game. She then ended up buying two copies of the Vampire deck. Stereotypical for that Chibi Vampire to buy a Vampire deck. LOL. I am planning on building a blue deck as Blue is heavy technology, ninjas and Samurai themed. However, I also want to do Green/Yellow(or is it classed a white), for the Elves. Oh and afterward I found that we were playing Dragon Shields wrong. This was due to the game I watched two Saturdays ago, Liam was playing them wrong. The basic problem was that we did not know the Dragon Shields could only go to Forts of the same colour and what gives a Fort its colour is the banner behind it. Looking at the rules, it was an easy mistake to make. I only realised when I was watching an official How to Play videos on YouTube.


Card Games

On Tuesday I went down to Toby Carvery for some card gaming with Shell, Liam, Gareth, the House Brothers, John, Blake (briefly) and Brandon. I first got a game of Cardfight Vanguard against John (if memory serves me right). I using my Chouchou Bermuda Triangle deck. I was destroyed before ever of use hit GB1. This was mainly due to only getting a single trigger all game, and that was a heal trigger from a draw. After that, I got two games of Dragoborne against Liam, after letting him know about the Fort/Dragon Shield problem. He won the first game, but I managed to win the second. After that, I managed to get some trades in to improve my Stride deck for my Chouchou Bermuda Triangle deck and then tested the improvements against Brandon. I managed to win this one with my first ever stride with "Chouchou Headliner, Lapria". Over all, it was a very enjoyable night.


HeroClix

Sadly on Thursday, there was not Heroclix as I was not feeling well. This means that the build has been moved to next week. The build was 900 points, five Actions, no figure above 250 points, no ATA's and no bases larger than peanut sized.


Future Games
  • On Saturday the 19th of August, there will be a Future Card Buddyfight and Dragoborne Tournament happening at Wargames Workshop MK.
  • On Monday the 21st of August I will be going to Wargames Workshop MK for a game of Kingdom Death Monster.
  • On Thursday the 24th of August, I should be going to York House for some games of HeroClix.
  • On Saturday the 26th of August, there will be a Cardfight Vanguard Tournament happening at Wargames Workshop MK.
  • On Monday the 28th of August, I should be going to Wargames Workshop MK for a game. I just remembered that it is a Bank Holiday so I will not be going as gaming will be happening in the daytime and not the evening/night.

Well, that is it for this post. Until all are one with the Lantern-Spark.

Neoscream's Painting Table: Fantasy February 2017

Welcome to another Neoscream's Painting Table. This week I have for you all some Fantasy figures. These are some stuff from Dungeon Saga or stuff painted for use in Frostgrave.


Next week will be some more Dungeon Saga figures.



Neoscream's Gaming Week

The Others: 7 Deadly Sins

On Monday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for a game of The Others: 7 Deadly Sin. Bob was running it and Michael and Wai-Yin turned up to play too. Bob was playing the sins and choose to use his Geed stuff, as it was all painted up. It was a long game and mistakes were made (like Bob forgetting that the hobo acolytes could deactivate upgrades when they are summoned back from the dead), but was very enjoyed by everybody. Wai-Yin managed to win the game for us when her Vampire character sacrificed her life by running into a room full of several Hellfire Club members and managing to roll enough hits to kill the two remaining targets we needed to kill. We will have to try it again when Bob has painted up another Sin.


HeroClix

On Thursday I went to York House for some games of HeroClix with Darren S, Michael and Adrian. The scenario was the same as last week's, but this time we had to use the rival. As I used Wolverine last week, this week I was using Sabertooth. As we seen a lot of Marauders teams lately, I decided to build a Weapon X team who were:

Sabretooth (031 Marvel Uncanny X-Men) 75
Omega Red (042 Marvel Uncanny X-Men) 90
Weapon X Scientist (007a Marvel Deadpool) 40
Weapon X (012 Marvel Deadpool) 91
Agent Zero (026 Marvel Deadpool) 112
G.W. Bridge (041 Marvel Deadpool) 68
Meltdown (027 Marvel Xplosion) 23
=499 points

On the first game, I was up against Michael who was using a Brotherhood of Mutants team with Magneto as the Icon. I sadly lost this game. Also, Darren S won his game against Adrian.

On the second game, I was up against Adrian who was using a New Mutant team with Wolverine as the Icon (was themed due to the Uncanny ATA). I Managed to win this game. Also, Darren S won his game against Michael.

On the third and final game of the day, I was up against Darren S who was using a Justice League team with Batman as the Icon. I got white washed by his team sadly. Also, Michael won his game against Adrian.


Next Time

I should be playing Vanguard (and may some Force of Will) at Wargames Workshop MK today. On Sunday I might be playing some computer games with Richard, Darren H and Simon. Most likely Left 4 Dead or Warhammer Vermintide. I will be running KDM on Monday evening. Also, HeroClix should be happening on Thursday evening at York House.


Well until next time, until all are one with the Lantern Spark.

Neoscream's Painting Table - Terrain Part Two February 2017

Hi everyone and welcome to another "Neoscream's Painting Table" post. This week post I have for you all some more terrain. There was meant to be a second castle wall, but sadly I have somehow miss placed it. It is one of those things where you always see it until when you need it and then you cannot find it. When I do find it is will most likely be in a backgroup of a photo.


Next week's post will be the first of two random Fantasy posts.



This Gaming Week

Kingdom Death Monster (Wargames Workshop MK)

On Monday evening, I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for some of KDM. This week there was five of us. Myself, Adrain Michael, Bob and Wai-Yin. I wanted to play so I decided to use the 5+ survivors home rules I made. Sorry, the one in the back of the rule book is too nasty.

The office rules are that the Monster gains one Speed token and two strength tokens max of six players. This meant that the Prologue White Lion would be dealing Server Wounds to characters with each hit.

My rules are the Monster gain two health from each survivor over four that is taken off before AI cards and one Speed token for every two survivors over four. Only four survivors may act during a turn (not including Survival Actions) and no Survivor can skip two turns. I was running it as the maximum Endeavours earn was four. But I will change this to you earn Endeavours equal to the number of Survivors returning minus the number of departing survivors over four.

We managed to get two Showdowns done this week. The first was the prologue Whiter Lion. It too longer than what I thought, it did not help with waiting for Wai-Yin to turn up. We did not lose any survivors any. We built almost a full set of rawhide and three Bone Daggers.

We then hunted a level one Gorm. The hunt really screwed us over like I have been founding it has been doing lately. Adrian's character was heavily wounded on most locations. We managed to defeat without using any survivors. However, Adrian's character suffered from broken ribs. Due to time, we rush the settlement phase, building only a Shield and a Sword from the Gorm resources. I realised as I am writing this we forgot to roll on Gorm Climate. I must remember to do this before we start the next game.

On a bit of personal KDM news, the Pledge Manager for 1.5 is finally up. God this will be expensive. I am still on the bench if I go for the hard plastic board or not. I would be nice to get another board. However, its $100 and the money would be best spent on more expansions or saved.


HeroClix

On Thursday I went down to York House in Stony Stratford for HeroClix. This was the first round of two of our Icons special. 500 point, three actions. Pick an Iconic rivalry (eg Captain America and Red Skull, Superman and Lex Luthor). Your team must have one of these characters and no other Iconic characters. I decided to go with Wolverine in an Alpha Flight team who were:

Wolverine (001 Marvel Wolverine and the X-Men) 100
Puck (010 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 50
Guardian (011 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 100
Aurora (012 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 75
Northstar (013 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 75
Shaman (040 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 92
=492 points

In the first game, I was up against Adrian who was using a Marauders team with Sabertooth as the Icon. Sadly I lost. My dice rolls were crap. Also, Darren S won his game against Michael.

In the second game, I was up against Michael who was using an X-Men team with Professor X as the Icon. I managed to win this game. Also, Adrian won his game against Darren S.

In the third and final game, I was up against Darren S who was using an Injustice League team with Joker as the Icon. Like normal, Darren S won. Luckily it was not a white wash as I took out over half of his team. Also, Adrian won his game against his brother Michael. It was a Mutant Massacre.

The next game will be the same but you must use the other character. So it will be Sabertooth for me.


Next week

I should be playing The Other: Seven Deadly Sins with Bob and Wai-Yin and hopefully HeroClix on Thursday.


That is it for this week's post. Until all are one with the Lantern-Spark.

Gaming News from Neoscream: 23rd April 2016

Welcome everyone to the “Gaming News from Neoscream” post. This is my weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs and some card games, as well as my miniatures painting and upcoming local events.



“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Weiß Schwarz, this week sees the release of the "Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works volume 2" Booster Set and Meister Set in English and "Idolmaster Cinderella Girls 2nd Season" Booster set in Japanese. Also on Friday next week we will see the release of the Power Up set for Idol Master in Japanese.
With Cardfight Vanguard, this sees the release of the second G Start Deck "Knight of the Sun" in both English and Japanese.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: Leatherhead from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; "Sabertooth and Wild Child" and Proteus from Marvel The Uncanny X-Men; and Surfing Batman, Shark and Hawkman conversation exclusive figures.

Now for the Ninja Division news. Their KickStarter, "Rail Raiders Infinite, has ended. They managed to make $339,724 with 4,649 backers. Since the last post they managed to unlock: The "Old Tyme Religion" expansion as an add-on; a new pledge level called "Raiders" that includes everything from "Space Cowboy" plus both expansions; the raider Rhinestone was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; Rail Raiders Infinite card sleeves was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Canton Cobb was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; two Lawbot Preachers and three Lawbot Pallbearers was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Typhoon was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; a second sculpt for the Lawbot Pallbearers; ten more Poker Dice and rules for the spin-off game that uses the dice called "Huckleberry's Riverboat Roll" was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Chuy was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; a Collector's Dealer Chip will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; and the Law Bot Lock Box was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above.
All of the stretch goals finished.

Next is the Privateer Press news. I have more information on the Battlegroups due to online preorders. First off I was wrong about a couple of things. The Warjacks are the same sculpts and are in their plastic resin but coloured in the faction's base colour. Also not all the warjacks are the same as the old Battlegroups. I made this mistake thinking the Firefly was a new Charger.
Also previews of several state cards have been revealed.

Now for the Cryptozoic news. The Ghostbusters The Board Game 2 KickStarter is still going on, however it is still going slow. Since the last post they managed to unlock: The ghost Bug Eye was added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: The Ghostbuster Kylie Griffin will be added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above at $600k.

Next is the Mantic news. Pre-orders for Deadzone second edition is now up. Sadly there is no word if it has officially started to ship to backers yet.

Now for the Odyssey: Argonauts news. The KickStarter has finished now and they have managed to make £6,039 with 88 backers. Since last time they have managed to unlock: A Wrist Mounted Weapons add-on set; a Head and Shoulder plate add-on set; a Head and Shoulder add-on set; a Wrist Blades and Shield add-on set; the Odyssey Scrap-Book(let) as an add-on; the "Argonauts Assemble" pledge level that comes with eight Argonauts, Jason and two of each add-on set; "The Last Stand" KickStarter and Show exclusive damaged Argonaut figure as an add-on; and the Odyssey Scrap-Book(let) was added to "We Three Kings" pledge level and above.
Sadly the stretch goals that they did not make were: The Final add-on set at £70k.

Next is the "Fragged Empire RPG: Protagonist Archive and Miniatures news. Since the last post they have managed to unlock: All the miniatures will now come with a hand signed premium quality art cards.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: Expanded art budget at $50k; expanded 'Prominent NPCs' section by fifteen pages at $55k; a Male Kaltoran miniature at $60k; GM Screens at $65k; and expanded Science, Technology, Psionics and Factions sections by ten pages at $70k. Please note that this is in Australian dollars, not USA dollars.

Now for a new KickStarter that has hit the internet like a storm, Dark Souls: The Board Game. It is a strategically challenging, deeply immersive combat exploration game for one to four players board game based on the computer game Dark Souls, which Kingdom Death Monster gets compared to all the time. It is being done by the British company Steamforged Games LTD, the people who made Guild Ball. There was a demo of the game at Salute which I missed out on, however a friend of mine did play it and it was quite interesting and really deadly like Kingdom Death Monster. It was funded in just three minutes, made $1m in just under twenty-four hours and 1m backers and £1m in two days. Sadly I have a strong feeling from past game that is the $1m and games based on other properties, this huge successes will be its undoing. There is really only one pledge level, Souls Pledge. This comes with the box game and all stretch goals unless noted otherwise. There is also a retail level too (I do not normally cover retail version).
Since starting they have managed to unlock: Funded; a Pyromancer Player Character; five Dancer Behaviour Cards; a Cleric Player Character; five Executioner Behaviour Cards; a Sorcerer Player Character; a Thief Player Character; five Legendary Weapon Treasure Cards; a Mercenary Player Character; five Lothric Encounter Cards; the Pursuer Boss Model; five Anor Londo Encounter Cards; a Deprived Player Character; ten Item Treasure Cards; three Firebomb Hollows figures; three Dancer Heat Up Cards; five Gravestone 3D terrain tokens; three Executioner Damaged Cards; three Silver Knight Lancers figures; the Sir Alonne Boss Model; four Barrel 3D terrain tokens; the Bonfire 3D terrain token; four Treasure Chest 3D terrain tokens; four Large Barrel 3D terrain tokens; Spin Dials for Core Game Mini Bosses; the Smelter Demon Boss Model; five Smelter Demon Behaviour Cards; three Alonne Sword Knight figures; give Legendary Weapon Treasure Cards; three Ironclad Soldiers figures; five Spell Equipment Cards; five Iron Keep Encounter Cards; three Alonne Katana Bow Knights figures; the Gaping Dragon expansion as an add-on; the Black Dragon Kalameet expansion as an add-on; the Guardian Dragon expansion as an add-on; five Invader AI Cards; three Smelter Demon Damaged Cards; Trap Cards; Spin Dials for the Pursuer, Sir Alonne and Smelter Demon; two Mimics figures; two Crystal Lizards; the Last Giant boss expansion for retailers; the Manus, Father of the Abyss boss expansion for retailers; the Four Kings boss expansion as an add-on; the Black Iron set player character; five The Pursuer Behaviour Cards; five Winged Knight Behaviour Cards; the Adventurer set player character; and five Gargoyle Behaviour Cards.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: Executioner's Chariot boss expansion for retailers 200 Retail Backers; and an un-revealed armour set player character at £1.2m.
I have only back this at £1 to get the updates. However if I have the money, room and time for another game, I would be backing this at "Souls Pledge".

Lastly there is the Stonehaven Miniatures news. All the sculpting for their Halfling Adventurers Miniatures KickStarter are now completed. Casting based on the past will take about a month and shipping should be starting mid to late May. Backers all receive a survey next week.

    Neoscream's Life: 28th of March to 3rd of April 2016

    Welcome everybody to another the "Neoscream's Life" post. This is my weekly post of life, what games I have been playing, what I have been painting and what I have watching and reading. This week's opening pictures are of the Dragon King.



    "Blog News"

    Wow, the blog is now six years old now. I not doing anything special this year for it as I forgot to plan for it. Like always I would love to update and improve on the images of the blog. However I am not setting anything in stone as I would prefer to find a professional to do it. Someone who can draw Transformers would be ideal.

    Oh and for those of you who missed the notice and are wondering why there was no "Gaming News from Neoscream" post last week. Due to the lack of news for the stuff I normally report on, I decided not to do it as the news would be almost nothing. However as I skipped last week’s, this week's will be happening.



    "Life"

    As Monday was a bank holiday, that mention that the store was closed so sadly there was no gaming on Monday at Wargames Workshop MK again.

    This week I have started planning a little holiday for May. With the new dates for the cancelled Foxes tour dates are now up and how much I enjoyed her concert at the Round House in London, I have decided to go to one of the of these. She sadly went down sick at the beginning of the third week of her three week UK tour and had to cancel the week. Due to other events happening, I can only really do Postsmout or Brighton. A thought of doing both did come to mind, however it would be very costly. I end up deciding to go to the Brighton one which is on the 11th of May. Sadly I will be going on me as most people I know would not go or are too busy. Also unlike London, I will be staying over night due to problems with travel. I am NOT walking in London from one train station to another at 1/2AM on my own. So it will be two days in Brighton, on my own. C'est la vie.

    ?


    "HeroClix"

    On Thursday I played some HeroClix with Darren S, Michael and Adrian like normal. The scenario this time was "Build Up to Civil War". 500 points. The team must have one and only one character from the up and coming Captain America Civil War film that no one else is using. I basically built an Agents of SHIELD team that guess stars Iron Man and Nick Fury. The team was:

    Iron Man (201 Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 110 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 113
    Skye (006 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 50 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 53
    Simmons (005 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 50 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 53
    Fitz (004 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 50 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 53
    Agent Coulson (002 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 75 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 78
    Nick Fury, Jr. (001 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 75 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 78
    Agent May (003 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 50 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 53
    Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. (003 Marvel Avengers movie) 19 + Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division (ATA) 3 = 22
    =503 points

    On the first round I was up against Darren S who was also using a SHIELD themed team who were:

    Nick Fury (056 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD) 120
    Winter Soldier (024 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD) 95
    Iron Nail (048 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD) 155
    Fitz (004 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD Fast Forces) 50
    Quake (019 Marvel Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD) 85
    =505 points

    Like normal against Darren S, I lost the game. Also Adrian won his game against his brother Michael. On the second round I was up against Michael. He was also using a SHIELD themed team who were:

    War Machine (029a Marvel Invincible Iron Man) 125
    Mirage (004 Marvel Wolverine and the X-Men) 75
    Morbius (028 Marvel Amazing Spiderman) 133
    Satana Hellstrom (034 Marvel Amazing Spiderman) 82
    Nick Fury (040 Marvel Chaos War) 45
    S.H.I.E.L.D. Soldier (002 Marvel Captain America The Winter Soldier) 45
    =505 points

    I managed to win this game. Also Darren S won his game against Adrian. On the third and final round I was up against Adrian who was using a Fantastic Four themed team who were:

    Thing (003 Marvel HeroClix 10th Anniversary) 128 + Fantastic Force (ATA) 5 = 133
    Mr. Fantastic (037 Marvel Galactic Guardians) 130 + Fantastic Force (ATA) 5 = 135
    Black Panther (037 Marvel Captain America) 128 + Fantastic Force (ATA) 5 = 133
    Storm (030 Marvel HeroClix 10th Anniversary) 128 + Fantastic Force (ATA) 5 = 133
    =504 points

    I managed to win this game. Also Darren S won his game against Michael.

    There is no HeroClix this week due to work. So next week's scenario will be "Avengers Assemble". 500 points, must be a Avengers themed team (which includes things like West Cost Avengers). You cannot use characters from the Captain America Civil War film.



    "Steamroller Tournament"

    On Saturday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for the second Milton Keynes Steamroller Tournament. Due to time I will not be doing much of a write up. I used my normal Cygnar team and got third place. WOW, my highest ever Steamroller Tournament place. Sadly there was only three of us, four if you included Ian who was running the tournament. This also sadly meant I was in lost place too, so I won the wooden spoon of doom AGAIN.



    "Painting and Converting"

    For this post I have for you all is three more Soldiers and two Interceptors from the XCOM board game.

    Neoscream's Life: 21st to 27th of March 2016

    Welcome everybody to another the Neoscream's Life post. This is my weekly post of life, what games I have been playing, what I have been painting and what I have watching and reading. This week's opening pictures are of the Flower Knight.



    "Life"

    I did not manage to do any gaming on Monday at Wargames Workshop MK as no one was up for a game of Warmachine, Malifaux or Frostgrave against my. But I did pop into the store for some undercoat which I forget to buy the Sunday before.

    Due to problems at work I could not do HeroClix on Thursday like normal and as I needed to have Friday off to do stuff with my mates, I have to sacrifice my Saturday off so I could not go to the Cardfight Vanguard Tournament or pick up a box of the new set G-BT-06 "Transcension of Blade and Blossom". I have not clue on when I can get it as the store is closed on Monday this week so there is no Monday game again.

    On Friday I went to Richard's with Darren H and Simon. We played a game of Britannia that took all day like normal with that game. Darren H won the game and I came a close second.



    "Loot Crate"

    March's Loot Crate for 2016 arrived in the post during the week. This moth's theme was Verses. In the crate this time was:

    AVP Aliens vs. Predator Vinyl Figure.
    Marvel Daredevil and Punisher Reversible Hat.
    Harley Quinn Comic Book.
    Batman vs. Superman Dawn of Justice Mighty Wallet.
    Quantum Mechanix Mirror, Mirror Star Trek T-Shirt.
    The Monthly Magazine.
    The Monthly Pin.

    This is not a picture of the stuff "I" received, but it is what I got.

    It was not that great of a Crate time. The lack of Captain America Civil War stuff with a Harley Quinn comic that seem to not have any reason to be it the crate is a bit of a let down. I am not saying the comic is bad, but it is not really in the theme of the crate. My favourite items were the t-shirt and the hat.

    April's theme will be "Quest".



    "Painting and Converting"

    For this post I have for you all is two of my Cygnar Rangers from Warmachine rebased and three soldiers from the XCOM board game.


    During the week I managed to finish painting two more Malifaux figures. I also undercoated an Arcadia Quest figure, a Kingdom Death Monster figure, and three Zombicide figures.

    In the next "Gaming News from Neoscream" post I should have for you all three more Soldiers and five Interceptors from the XCOM board game.
