First off is the Mantic news. It is Charismas time over at the Mantic store and that means the Bits Box is back. In it this year is the normal random Kings of War and Warpath plastic miniatures, but it also includes a random DreadBall Giant, a random DreadBall MVP and a poster. I not sure if I will pick this up yet as I have not used much of last year’s yet. The Forge Fathers were used in my X-Guard team for 7TV, an elf for parts for a DreadBall player, a Orx head was used on a DreadBall Goblin player, the Orx and a Goblin will see future use in my CWC team for 7TV and the Zombies and Ghouls will be added to Zombicide/7ombie TV after I have finished the Zombicide zombies.

Mantic's save labor busy sorting counl=nters

Everything else will be shipped in the second package. So there will no Enforcer Faction Boosters or Faction Booster Bundles in the first shipment. Damn it.

Also the finishing touches to the Creating DreadBall book are being done and it should be sent to all backers (as a PDF) soon.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week there was previews of: Cable from Marvel Avengers vs. X-Men; Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad from DC Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes; and Neko Mane King from Yu-Gi-Oh Series One.

Now for the Shadows of Brimstone KickStarter news. The KickStarter ended Monday morning and the new stuff we get out of it since the last update were: A female variant of the Drifter Hero Class; three Henchmen Allies; the “Derelict Ship” Otherworld; Serpentmen Shaman; special dice as a none Mine cart add-on; a bag of Dark Stone Tokens; B.E.A.C.O.N. Drones; “No Man’s Land” Trederra Encounter Pack; three Harvestors; a Blacksmith Ally; the Hell Cannon with crew; “The Captain’s Log” Derelict Ship Encounter Pack; the Wandering Samurai Hero Class in both genders; and a Dark Stone Hydra.

Sadly the stretch goals that were not made were: Three Trun Hunters; six Trederran Mutants; six Tribal Ghost Warriors; the “Belly of the Beast” Otherworld; and the new game mode “The Impossible Hell Train.

The KickStarter made $1,341,305 when the original target was $30,000 and go 4,727 backers.

Next is the Battle Systems Sci-fi Modular Terrain. They have managed to unlock or got so far in the space of a week are: A third Well Mounted Medi display will be added to Add-On Pack 7; a Locker and Bunks add-on kit; the Battle Systems 3D Construction kit; a new add-on with bits of bobs; and the ability to convert Reactor Cells into Stasis Pods at £146k.

Stretch goal that were left as I start to post this were: An Extra Transfer Conduit, two extra V-consoles and two extra Cargo Crates added to the Stronghold pledge level ad £152k; and the Docking Bay add-on and an unknown amount. This will end by the end of the weekend so let us see what will be unlocked by then. Sadly due to a unforeseen event which is detailed later on in the news, I had to pull out of this KickStarter.

Now for the Journey: Wrath of Demons news. The KickStarter ended Monday morning and the new stuff we get out of it since the last update were: Two new map tiles were added to the “White Bone Demon” expansion pack; a plastic Bridge, a new bridge tile, a pack of five downloadable Quests and one plastic Zigi Spider Demon Warrior all added to the Boxed Game Upgrade; and the second expansion pack “Spider Demons”.

Sadly the stretch goals that were not made were: A resin door set added to Collectors Upgrade; an extra Spider Demon Warrior, an extre Zahe Spider Demon Priest and two extra Map Tiles added to the “Spider Demons” expansion pack; and a resin Ziran Spider Demon General added to the Collectors Upgrade.

The KickStarter made $425,553 when the original target was $55,000 and go 1,858 backers.

Next is the RoboTech RPG Tactics news. We got another preview of a set of cards during Friday night. The Character Cards are done and have been submitted for approval to Harmony Gold. The rulebook is also awaiting approval and is expect to be ready this week. Also the last of the sculpts is done and production is starting. On a bit of non-gaming RoboTech news, Harmony Gold is releasing a new feature length film called, Robotech: Love Live Alive in the UK in the beginning of next year. It mixes unused footage from Tatsunoko Production's 1985 OVA Mospeada: Love Live Alive with new footage to create this hybrid film that recounts the journey of Lieutenant "Lancer" Belmont, a veteran of Robotech's "New Generation" from before his first encounter with Scott Bernard up until the aftermath of Admiral Rick Hunter's expedition to liberate Earth from the mysterious Invid race.

Now for the Kingdom Death news. The Black Friday update came early with a ton of news. This was so last moment and major I am writing it on Blogger as I am posting this instead of on word to cut and past into Blogger. First off it is being pushed back to the second quarter of 2014 (originally was December 2013 than was push back to the end of the first quarter of 2014 two months ago), but this will most likely be very early in the second quarter. So early that some MIGHT get their stuff on the first quarter. 

They showed off the hard plastics of several of the Pinups as well as Beyond the Wall and several on still on sprues.

More CAD images of some of the Armour Kits this includes a new Armour kit that has been added to the game that will be in the Dung Beetle Knight expansion pack due to the extended wait.  

Another page from the Aya comic book in the rulebook. They have revealed that in was originally going to be 8 to 10 pages long but in will now be 20 page. I cannot wait to see this.

New images of the Hunt Phase Board have been revealed and now it has a flip side that organises the cards in the Showdown Phase. Very nice.

Now for the Black Friday stuff, first their is a Black Friday half price sell on all their non Black Friday only stuff on their store. With this there has been a restock of Pinup Architect, Pinup Savior, Preacher Pinup and Pinup Great Game Hunter (some have sold out as I post this). Also there is a Black Friday Grab Bag of Death has been added to the store with ever a figure that never has been released (or will be) or four miss cast or missing parts figures from past runs as a Black Friday only item. But the grab bags are not the only Black Friday only item. Due to tons of requests to yet late comes into the KickStarter, just for Black Friday three Survivor level bundles have been added to the store. Bronze is the Survivor level from KickStarter, Silver is the Survivor level from KickStarter plus all the expansions and gold is the Survivor level from KickStarter plus all the expansion plus all the plastic promos and plastic Pinups. Because of this I had to un-back Battle Systems Sci-fi Modular Terrain and bit the bullet. I have gone for bronze level. My mum will have killed me if I had of gone silver. I Also picked up a grab bag and Pinup Great Game Hunter.

Next a legend is coming back next year for its 25th anniversary and it has gone to KickStarter for funding. The Legend is Hero Quest. It started on Monday and has smashed thought the original goal with ease. Due to copyright laws it is only officially coming out is Spain as that is where Gamezone Miniatures have the right for it. Hasbro, BM and Game Workshop all still co-own the rights for it, but will not release to game or give up the rights. So postage will be expensive. The game is schedule for a December 2014 release, barely meeting to 25^th anniversary of the game, however knowing most KickStarters (which Mantic and Renaissance Miniatures on the how have been good with) I dealt that the game will ship in 2014. Releases are always pushed back several months due to problems and under estimating the workload.

The Stretch goals unlocked so far are: Monster Cards (by the sound of it added to the box game); a Captive Knight; a Rolling Boulder; Black spell cards; a Female prisoner; a Sarcophagus insert; Primordial Chaos spell cards; an extra Ogre; Descending ladders; a Secret room tile; a Guillotine; a Captive Assassin; six extra equipment cards; three Colony Spiders; and two Spider Eggs.

Unlock other KickStarters, HeroQuest are not reviling future goals, just the amount until the next goal is achieved, which is $547,000 CAD. Yes it is Canadian dollars instead of US dollars. However on Thursday evening it became the subject of an intellectual property dispute. This means it’s funding and the countdown to its deadline have been stopped. If it becomes available again, the countdown will continue and the deadline will extend past the original deadline for as much time as it was unavailable. This was too much of a good thing to happen. Maybe BM and/or Game Workshop will realise now the public really waits this game back on the shelves and release it themselves or decide for their profit to team up with Gamezone Miniatures (but bring the damn date earlier). But that is wishful thinking.

Now for the Zombicide news. There is a new mission out called Storage Wars and Prison Outbreak has been officially released to the general public.

Lastly is the Privateer Press news. A preview image of Gatorman Bokor and Bog Trog Swamp Shamblers Minions unit has been revealed. No clue when it is out.

Future Events

Painting and Converting

This week I have done two another Teraton Player, a Krot, an X-Guard Dwarf, C.C., a Holy Sword, two Walker Zombies, one Runner Zombie and one Fatty Zombie.

This week's figure front view

This week's figures rear view

This week's DreadBall figure

This week's 7TV Figures

This weeks Zombicide figures

Next week should be another Walker Zombie, the remaining four Daughters of the Flame and Female Survivor Aya.

Armies

This week I have the 300 rating version of the Tau Invasion Force and the 200 rating X-Guard force for 7TV. Sadly due to the fact that I am waiting for the Enforce Medic from Deadzone to use as ? for the X-Guard, and the fact is has now been pushed back until the second shipment, I am using a random unpainted Dwarf figure as a sitting for him for now. Some people might recognise the medic in the Tau Invasion Force as the medic from my Hive Organic Collective team. This will be his real team as I plan on replacing him in the Hive team in the future. With what, I have no clue at the moment.

Opps, the Medic should have a higher Rating, 5 or 6 off the top of my head.

Until next time, Armour Up.

Neoscream's Life: 18th to 24th of November

AMX-004 Qubeley

Welcome to the Neoscream's Life post. This is a weekly post of some of the things I have done last week and news on the great Geek Goddess, AJ Lee.This week's opening picture is the last of the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam Mobile Suits/Armours. Next week will be the start of the Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ ones.

“Life”

I was back at work this week after the two week chaos of having a new kitchen. The buses were more of a nightmare than normal they are running more than five minutes early, not turning up or running so late it arrives a moment just before the next bus arrives. I have not arrived to work on time at all this work do to the buses and I have been trying to catch buses a bus earlier than I need. No wonder Milton Keynes bus service has been voted one of the worst bus services in the UK. Luckily I have not gotten into trouble because most of the time it was coming in earlier than I am down as the management wanted me to do stuff.

The kitchen fitter came on Monday evening to fix the fan, but sadly he did not do the shelf (I think I was misspelling it last week) or sealing under the window seal (which I forgot to talk about). He said he would come Thursday after 11AM to do it but texted on the day to say he was not coming. He will now be coming Friday evening to do it which the assistant did, however he only fitted the shelf. He said he would come Monday evening to seal the window seal as he did not have any sealant in his van. Also BnQ finally picked up the rubbish Tuesday afternoon. Was it to do with last week's blog post or they just finally got off their butts.

During the week the person who was meant to be doing the fence phoned up saying he would be coming on Sunday, but he never turned up or called. My dad had to call him. This time his excuse was that he does have his van anymore. Let’s just say we will be going with someone else now. As this job should have been done weeks ago, if not months (I have lost count).

This week I have been busy studying like mad for the chapter five exam as it was more than three times the size of previous chapters. The chapter is on Operating Systems. I manage to get 91.7% in the test. Next week will be the chapter six exam that covers Networking (another super huge chapter, and the check point exam that will cover chapters 1 to 6. So it was back to the studying again and this time in it worst.

An old friend of mine, Roxi was in Milton Keynes this week for a week. We watched both Thor: Dark World and Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor in the cinema and played a game of Super Dungeon Explore. I was playing as the console while Roxi played the three heroes in a 16-Bit game. Maybe we should have done 8-bit as Roxi got swamped with monsters.

As you might be able to tell off the bottom of this post I have seen both the cinema and TV versions of Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor. For what I was told to expect from the cinema version which sold me to going to it was that it had fifteen minutes extra and it was it 3D. The 3D was awesome but apart from a couple of minute introduction from the Doctors I could not see anything extra. In fact there was less as the cinema version did not have the trailer for the Christmas special which was on the TV version. Plus the tickets were more than a normal film. Do not get me wrong, I was great seeing it in 3D, but I do feel a bit ripped off. It might have been a good idea to start a little earlier and include the two mini episodes that goes with it before it starts. It cost the same as Thor did but we watched Thor in a more expensive cinema, with glass as we forgot them and it was a deluxe screen with beater chairs.

“AJ Lee (and WWE)”

On Raw the Authority decided to place Vickie Guerrero in a match as punishment for what happened in the previous week’s Raw. Why am I talking about that here? Her opponent is the Diva who’s life she made a living hell of lost year, the Diva’s Champion and Geek Goddess AJ Lee. And this time there is no special guess ref to screw over AJ. REVENGE TIME. Vickie tried getting out of it but it lead to her being taken TO the ring on a stretcher. She tried running away and getting Tamina Snuka to hit her, but it never work. AJ led her back to the ring were AJ slapped on the Black Widow on her winning the match without any effort.

Also on Raw, Big E Langston (with a new remixed entry music) finally got his title match against Curtis Axel. He defeated Axel to become the new Intercontinental Champion. Congrats to Big E, AJ trained you well. After the match Vickie fainted. Not the destruction I was expecting, but still fun to watch.

All of the divas were out at ringside for Tamina’s match against Naomi on Main Event. Sadly I never saw it, but Tamina won an there looks like there was in big bust up between the divas.

Sadly on Smackdown, that jealous @itch Vickie who never learns from her mistakes placed AJ in a handy cap match against Cameron and Naomi. They did not even need to tag each other in. If it was a fair one on one match AJ would have kicked their butts like she has done in the past, but two on one she sadly had no chance.

Also Big E betides AJ on Smackdown by teaming up with Dolph Ziggle. They fought against Axel and Damien Sandow and won, thanks to Big E.

Like normal you all have to wait until next week for the Survivor Series results. I hoping AJ Black Widows all the Total Divas cast. However this week added a new match to the line up Intercontinental Champion Big E verses Axel.

Gaming with Neoscream: 22nd November 2013

Welcome to “Gaming with Neoscream”. This is my weekly gaming post for miniature games, non-computer RPGs and some card games.

Gaming News

First off is the Mantic news. Loka has begun shipping and I have received mine pretty quickly. The figures are a bit big compared to 28mm, especially the fifth element queen. I think I might be able to use her in Kingdom Death than 7TV like I planned. It was in total twenty-seven plastic figures and one metal figure for about £28. At first it does seem like a good deal but after checking the store you can get eighteen for £15, it is not really a saving. However it does look like I got it before general public (not including the release event at a/the Nottingham Waterstones).

Deadzone is almost ready to start shopping, just odd bits like the terrain still to arrive. They MIGHT start shipping Deadzone next week if things go well.

Also DreadBall Ultimate patches are up on Mantic's store for pre-order and they will be exclusive to the store (and maybe conventions).

Next is the HeroClix news. This week there was previews of: Iron Monger 2.0 and another Iron Man from Marvel The Invincible Iron Man; Magik from Marvel Avengers vs. X-Men; and Mystical Elf with the Graceful Dice spell and the Skull Dice trap from Yu-Gi-Oh Series One. The Marvel The Invincible Iron Man set is now out in the USA, so how long will it take for my brick to arrive?

Now for the Shadows of Brimstone KickStarter news. They have managed to unlock or got during the last seven days: Grizzly Bear add on (not a part of the Mine Crate level) another male variant for the Gunslinger; Trederran Raiders; the “Black Fang Tribe” Mission Pack; the “Fire and Brimstone” Cynder Encounter Pack; the Cowboy Hero Class add-on; the Undead Gunslinger; Trederran Field Marshal; a second female variant of the Rancher Hero Class; an Undead Outlaw Gang; “Badlands Expedition” Game Supplement; the “Burning Sands” Blasted Wastes Encounter Pack; the “Cult of the Crimson Hand” Mission Pack; Beli’Al; and the Ancient One.

Stretch goal that were left as I start to post this were: A female variant of the Drifter at $1.05m; three Henchmen Allies at $1.1m; Serpentmen Shaman at $1.15m; three Harvestors at $1.2m; the “Belly of the Beast” Otherworld at $1.5m; the new game mode “The Impossible Hell Train at $2m. This will end by the end of the weekend so let us see what will be unlocked by then.

Now for the Battle Systems Sci-fi Modular Terrain. They have managed to unlock or got so far in the space of a week are: An extra Command Screen, an extra V-console and three extra Cargo Crates added to Stronghold pledge level.

Stretch goal that were left as I start to post this were: A third Well Mounted Medi display will be added to Add-On Pack 7 at $125k; a Locker and Bunks add-on kit at £130k; and a Detention Cell/Air Lock as a add-on pack at unknown amount (might even be at £130k with the other one); and XXX as a add-on pack at unknown amount (again, might even be at £130k with the other one).

Next is the RoboTech RPG Tactics news. All the Squadron and Support Cards have been approved and there are examples up for them.

Now for the Journey: Wrath of Demons news. They have managed to unlock or got so far in the space of a week are: Cleaner Peng add-on; Double Nightmare Bundle as an add-on; two Boof Bullserkers, two Yataru Bone Warriors and a limited time only a plastic female version of Tripitaka were added to the Boxed Game Upgrade; two bundle deals add-ons with all the Soul Hunters and Cleansers (one with and one without Soul Hunter Captain Xi Fung); the first expansion pack called “White Bone Demons"; a Resin Scenery-Water Well added to the Collectors Upgrade; a third Yangu Bone General was added to the “White Bone Demon” expansion pack; the “White Bone Demon” bundle add-on that gives you extra daemon minions; Dragon Qinglong add-on; and all backers of $320 or more (including shipping) will get a free plastic Yagara Bone Beast on top of and resin Jiangshi.

Stretch goal that were left as I start to post this were: Two new map tiles added to the “White Bone Demon” expansion pack at $370k; a plastic Bridge added to the Boxed Game Upgrade at $385k; and resin door set added to Collectors Upgrade at 2,000 backers.

This will end tomorrow so let us see what will be unlocked by then. I have now backed this at "The Resin Sage" pledge level with the add-ons of plastics of Dragon Princess Xiao Yan, Cleanser Zhilan, Soul Hunter Captain Xi Fung and the female version of Tripitaka. The pledge level comes with a Resin version of the Money King and an art book.

Two more Elven Adventurers figures

Lastly is some other game news. Last Saturday I pick up Sedition War: Battle for Alabaster. It is another board game from Cool Mini or Not, just like Zombicide and Super Dungeon Explore.

Past Events

Last Saturday I took part of the Warmachine/Hordes Steamroller tournament. Due to no having the time to write up about this until the day I am posting this as I have been busy studying like mad, I can barely remember what happened. If memory serves me right I was up ageist Jack Penn in the first round and he was using a Cygnar force. Sadly I lost. Again if memory serves me right I was up ageist Gary Webb in the second round and he was using a Circle force. Sadly I lost. On the third round I was up ageist Benji Hanson (or have I gotten round two and three mixed up?) he was using a Khador force. Again I sadly lost. In the fourth and final round I was up against Joseph Mead and he was using a Retribution force. I lost again. So overall I lost all four games, coming last in the tournament. Well in was my first tournament and it had been quite a while since last time I played. Hopefully by the next time I will have at least a unit of Reciprocators to give me more chooses. Coming lost did mean I won a prize, a wooden spoon. My force is listed under the Armies section of the post

Homemade Rules

The way my course is going, I will be dropping this section until February as the chapters are getting bigger (this week’s was tripled the size of previous week’s) and I also have to start going over past chapters for mid course and end course exams. The painting section will be dropping in numbers too, but that will start in December. I will be doing five to seven points instead of seven to ten a week.

Until next time, Armour Up.
