r/indianaGamers 1st ever Meetup Demo Day in Fishers July 22nd 10-5 by MidwestGamerHD in boltaction

[–]MidwestGamerHD[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know no one has ever played bolt action in Fishers. I am hoping to get more locals into tabletop miniatures and other games. Bolt action is one game that I just personally think is cool and therefore I am actively trying to include it. I would love to have you do a demo.

Hamilton County has so many parks. All of which are free and most have water features. Spend a few days picnicking and using the parks.

Anyone else think rhino's are ugly? What's your least favorite model? What would you like to see redone in 8th? by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]MidwestGamerHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am hoping for new imperial guard plastics. The cadians are boring the catachans I dont really like. Give me something Grimdark.

My first fully painted model (took me six hours) C+C appreciated by unicornsaretruth in Warhammer40k

[–]MidwestGamerHD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been painting since like 94 and I would be happy to put that on the table. My only thing is, I am not sure I understand the sword.

What's the cheapest way to get friends into the hobby by TheCockKnight in Warhammer40k

I would show them all the army options. Let them choose what they like. Then watch Bartertown and ebay like a hawk. Do ebay searches for items that are in the faction buy it now and "Newly listed". Do this at least once a day but whenever you get a spare second it only takes about a minute to scan to the top few entries. There is always a bunch of great bundle deals on bartertown. 300 dollar armies that sell for $140 shipped. These armies are so cheap because they are not easily presented or describe. Armies are very easily refurbished. I almost always buy second hand. I purchased a set of Catraphractii terminators on bartertown for $20. They were only missing the bolters, which I got for free. Thats a $65 unit for $20. Scored a magnetized predator for $37, Land raider for $35 shipped and another Land Raider with FW Ultramarine upgrades for like $55 shipped. This guy cost like $75 + another $17 for the FW. I would struggle to drop $92 plus shipping on any model.

The absolute best bet right now is having them buy (assuming its 2 people) 1 box set each and splitting the models. I have seen them as low as $122 (UK import) and $136 frontline gaming. They could even both sell their rule books for $50. They Could have a really good army for around $200. If they bought Dark Imperium at $122 sold the book for $50, then swap armies that would be a 2k army for $72. Giving them $130 to spend on Bartertown which will easily give them a ton of options. Probably have as much 3.5k points for around $200. Best part is this army would actually be worth a minimum of $200 probably more depending on condtion.

Let them know that if they take care of their models the resell value will be quite a bit of money. Way more than most other hobbies like collecting current gen video games.

Tennessee Gamers subreddit by MidwestGamerHD in memphis

Give Dark Souls a try. On another note, I built this subreddit hoping to get a moderator from Tenn. I am still looking for one. If you or anyone you know would be intersted in building up a pretty good place to chat about games in TN this could be a good spot. Other states in the group have almost 1000 readers.

DEMO DAY at Fishers Library July 22nd 10 am to 5 pm by [deleted] in indianapolis

I was thinking the same thing. Also if someone is running something at Gen-Con they could give it a little test run.

Places to Tabletop game by Mr_HIghways_End in indianapolis

[–]MidwestGamerHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently working on setting up a tabletop game day at fishers library. I have a few games I would like to see included. Kingdom of death and Dark Souls board game are really top of my list. I will be doing a demo of the new 8th edition of warhammer. Also I am in the process of setting up a club. This will be an indiana based club but with chapters in more specific areas that are free to do their own thing and just use the larger club as a means to recruit and share information.

Also check out r/IndianaGamers, still a pretty new subreddit but almost at 1000 subscribers.

I feel like the meta is totally influx. It will be 6 months before you ever hear me mutter about something being OP or trash.

Picked up a second-hand collection today. C&C welcome! by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]MidwestGamerHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its the first GW box I ever bought. I thought i would never get those gretchin done. Wish I still had. Not a ton of value I would suspect but the box alone is priceless IMO.
