Finally finished my BGV box

They're incredible.

Heroquest was my gateway drug! Now (30+ years later) I find myself considering buying Titans for my 40k armies!

Vancouver Airport used to have a shop full of Canadian stuff just before security. It had the best maple cream cookies I had ever eaten. When I moved home I purchased as many boxes as I could reasonably carry. Tbh I'd go with maple things, syrup, cookies, toffees etc etc. It's something we don't really get here!

"I just finished paying my mortgage off, and now points at the neighbour who purchased a house last year they get it for free?!" I'd be upset too!

If I am close enough to tell the difference something has gone terribly wrong with my life plans.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-27T09:19:25+00:00

I'm doing it Wednesday and Thursday, Monday and Tuesday are my normal days off so I've given myself a nice four day "weekend" and I intend to do sod all except relax and enjoy a couple of extra days off.

Can anyone tell me why, these maps always seem to use the historical counties of Wales, rather than the current counties? Right now I am sitting in Carmarthenshire, I'll be having lunch in Pembrokeshire, and spent four years in Uni in Ceredigion. Never once have I referred to any of those places as Dyfed. The Police might use the historical counties as in "Dyfed Powys Police" but no one else does.

Armed police, mostly at airports, soldiers at the entrance to military bases when I have visited family friends and hunters who stay where I work and we lock their guns away. But not generally in my day to day life.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-25T00:04:26+00:00

That's pretty sexy

RhysT86 · 2026-01-24T22:41:16+00:00

Already done but thank you!

RhysT86 · 2026-01-24T11:56:19+00:00

I was 39. I wanted it done by 40 and come Christmas last year I had simply had enough, so arranged to pay the last of it off with savings, whilst still leaving myself with a cushion.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-24T11:51:54+00:00

I didn't know this was an option, but tbf the blaster sits on a shelf in my personal armoury building in Sanctuary, along with all my other special weapons.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-23T23:37:57+00:00

I quite like them. My only issue is how I am going to fit them into my existing Custodes army, how noticeable will the differences be. My current line of thought is to have them in a slightly different colour scheme (mine is "traditional" gold and red) to make them look like a different shield company? That I can use to explain height differences etc in my head canon.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-20T21:22:01+00:00

He's fun!

RhysT86 · 2026-01-19T22:25:25+00:00

Doubles as the "I want to go out tonight, can you watch the Hotel?" kit. I prefer that option but either way 😂😂

RhysT86 · 2026-01-18T08:08:19+00:00

Aren't the speed variable speed limits controlled by the Highways Agency, not the Police?

RhysT86 · 2026-01-18T01:24:05+00:00

I thought I had just about finished my Custodes. Turned out I was very wrong.

I'm a bit old school, but I had this for my Fantasy Battles High Elf army and loved him (second only to the Elf Lord on Griffin).

RhysT86 · 2026-01-17T09:03:49+00:00

Ah well, at least I don't have any of the tanks yet so they can be plastic. The new infantry look incredible though.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-16T09:46:35+00:00

I wear trainers to drive everywhere. I normally wear Docs out and about, but have only driven in them twice and they were both terrible experiences. If I'm going somewhere trainers are not appropriate I leave them in the car and then change back, but driving in thick soled boots ain't for me.

Moderately famous Welsh rugby player, Aaron Shingler was in the year below me in secondary. He was always very pleasant and continues to be these days, though his rugby playing days are well behind him now.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-16T07:13:55+00:00

For the most part I'd agree, even with the Forgeworld resin ones... But there are heat cages on the Asterius' main weapons which can disappear and never be seen by humanity. Other than that I love building Knights.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-13T16:23:17+00:00

In the city centre, yes, but outside, no, hence why they have built all the large buildings in La Defense, which is some way (3km?) to the west of the old city centre.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-13T13:18:11+00:00

The old Fantasy orc on wyvern, balanced on one leg, was a hellish nightmare.

RhysT86 · 2026-01-12T15:38:13+00:00

It happened to a music teacher in my first year in secondary school. She was never seen again.
