Welcome to “Gaming News from Neoscream”. This is my
weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs, some card games and computer
games. Now includes a bit of local gaming event news.
“Gaming News”
First off is the Yashima: Legend of the Kami Master
news. Since the last post they have managed to unlock for Bronze level: ten
Alternate art cards. And for Silver level: Foil Card Pack three (each Foil Card
Pack comes with ten cards); two new Kami decks; and the second Snow Expansion
Master.
Stretch Goal that were still going when I posted
this post were (several goals were change since the last post): Level Up Pack

eight player terrain will be added to Silver Level at $120k; two Alternate art

Facebook Shares.
Next is the Cool Mini or Not news. With Arcadia
Quest this week, it has started shipping and people (in America) have started
to receive it.
On Saturday the 4th of October there will
be a Zombicide Tournament at Wargames Workshop MK starting at 10AM. I will most
likely not be in it a there is a DreadBall Tournament happening on the same
day.
Now for the Mechadrome Heavy Metal Combat news. The
book and cards are done and are now in printing. The figures will be starting casting this week (if it has not already started). In fact as I woke up
today to post this there was a new update saying that the finished pilot and
arena cards have arrived to the warehouse almost three weeks early. Could this
be the first ever early KickStarter.
Next is the Journey: Wrath of Daemons news. There is
a PDF of the main rulebook up now for download from their KickStarter page.
Now for
the Kingdom Death news. On Wednesday morning they updated their web store with
four new figures and two restocks. The new figures were Ammo Slave, Rogue Class
Great Game Hunter, White Knight and Archivist; and the restocks were Storm
Knight and the Female Great Game Hunter. There was also a new painting guide
for Pinup Survivor. As I post this only the Rogue Class Great Game Hunter and the Female Great Game Hunter were left out of these release as well were
the Adult Sunstalker, the People of the Sun pack, the Pinups of Death Hard
Plastic Collection, the Mother, Pinup White Speaker, White Speaker, the 54mm
Twilight Knight Pinup and the 54mm Pinup Preacher. I picked up both White
Knight and Archivist. I was very tempted Ammo Slave, but I decided not to as is
would just be yet another near naked female figure from them.
There was
also another update. On KickStarter it is only open for KickStarter backers,
but there is a version for everybody on their main website (under blog). We got
hard plastic images of the Great Game Hunters and the Twilight Cloak. Images of
the Lantern Armour Kit mixed with the Unarmoured Kit. News on the Manhunter
Expansion and CAD images Spidicules, the Silk Armour Kit and the Gorm Armour
Kit.
Next is the Demigods Rising news. There was an
update showing off several of the new sculpts and some new print and play bits
for testing out the game.
Now for the Privateer Press news. This week we got
the October release dates. Next Wednesday (8th of October) will see
the releases of: this year Hordes rules expansion book “Exigence; the Hordes High
Command Campaign Expansion “Castle of the Keys”; a new Legion Heavy Warbeast
multi-part kit that be built into Neraph or Seraph; and the repackaged Skorne
Unit Paingiver Beast Handlers. The next wave of releases will be on October the
22nd. These will be: the Trollblood Epic Cavalry Warlock Borka the
Vengeance of the Rimeshaws; the Circle Warlock Bradigus Thorle the Runecarver;
and the Minion Gatorman Warlock Jaga-Jaga, the Death Charmer.
Today (3rd of October) there will be a
High Command Tournament at Wargames Workshop MK starting at 7PM. I will be
there with my new deck.
Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: 4-Starred
Ladybug of Doom and Cobraman Sakuzy from Yu-Gi-Oh Series Two; The Flash and Mob
Rule from DC The Flash Gravity Feed; Deathstroke from DC The Flash; Cheshire
from the DC Monthly prize support; and Rogue from the Marvel Monthly prize
support.
Now for the Crooked Dice Games news. On Wednesday we
saw the release of four more X-Commando figures.
Next is the
Mantic news. On Saturday the 4th of October there will be a DreadBall
Tournament at Wargames Workshop MK starting at 10AM. I will be at it.
Now for the Ninja Division news. With Robotech RPG
Tactics, the second container has arrived on Tuesday. They will start packing
and shipping wave one backer rewards today. Hippy, at long last. The third container
should hopefully arrive at the warehouse by next week, if not the week after.
The fourth and fifth containers are currently at sea at the moment while China
is currently working on the sixth container.

Next is
the current Hasslefree Miniatures Sculpting Contest news. Due to the delays,
the promo code is being extended. Late last night the old green images of the
figures being casted were posted. There will be thirty-eight figures being do (not including the winners and runner-ups) and two out of the three figures I did were done. The one based on Lily Rain
Eve from CosmicBreak (listed as Unnamed Pig Tales) and the one based on Kallen from Code Geass (listed as Unnamed Gunner). Poor Shen was
not pick. Oddly I thought this out of the three would have been picked. Well I have been finding that anything beginning with “Shen” seems to never workout (a rare hint to the stuff happening in the "Neoscream's Life" posts).
Lastly, as it is the first “Gaming News from
Neoscream” post of the month, I would normally do my monthly look at the top 20
non-computer gaming KickStarters. However as there was no changes since last
time, I will not be doing it this month.

In next week’s post will be what I have painted for
the third week of the Wargames Workshop MK Warmachine/Hoard League 2014.
“Wargames Workshop MK Warmachine/Hoard League 2014
Painting Challenge Day 18 of 28”
Here is what my paint table looked like last night
before going to bed.
Here is a closer look of the five I am focusing on
at the moment.
Sadly there no truly finish figures from yesterday,
just another Long Gunner waiting for a BEEPING base.
There will most likely be no post tomorrow as I will
be busy today, so I will not be able to do much. Well maybe finish a Zombie. If
I end up doing more than that I will do a post.
Until next time, Keep Rolling.
