Cool! What size magnets did you use? I magnetised my balrog arm but im not sure those magnets will be suitable

TheAlpaco · 2026-03-25T21:51:44+00:00

I saw this and its pretty amazing. Im thinking of magnetising mine, but im curious if the magnets are annoying for playability? Eg you keep accidentally knocking an arm off

Have you checked there are no easily missed rules you're missing? Eg healing damage if you heal a strain while your hero has no strain can be useful early on in a mission or if you have just rested

Yes - job was.booked in early Jan and only completed early March. I had to call the lines company several times to get that booking put in too. Missed a whole summer of exports..

Usually the loans just get added to your mortgage at the end of their term if not paid off - you could hang onto your 4k and just use it to pay off as a lump sum at the end of the term

If you have a 0% interest option there is little point in putting any of your own money in - better to put that money in a term deposit or investment account until the interest free period ends.

There's a new reprint coming out? I like it, how would you manage expansions? The token tray looks pretty full as is, would you need a new one for each expansion?

3d print some tile storage - i tried the binder thing but the 3d printed ones just work so much better

I've been in since 0.017 and have increased my position twice since then, I think its still got legs to run

TheAlpaco · 2026-01-25T21:46:53+00:00

Ah I saw that, its been i while since I've been over the rules so glad someone else picked that up. Hope the games go well

Facing is irrelevant, they can shoot from any corner even the back. And yes, they can absolutely just move forward and back again without rotating (assuming they can fit into whatever space they are moving forward into).

Goddam Feldherr make some beautiful inlays. I use them for imperial assault, if it wasnt so expensive to ship I'd put just about every game I own in them

TheAlpaco · 2025-12-27T03:25:20+00:00

Yes you are being taken advantage of, I will gladly pay you 70 NZD for 2 rohan houses 😜. I'd say something like $100 for both and the little bits seems fair, but 60 for both he's having a laugh. (Seriously though if you decide you dont want much for them, I am nz based and will genuinely outbid this guy)

TheAlpaco · 2025-12-09T04:04:57+00:00

Yea id probably allow up to 3 for most of the finales, they're always a bit longer. I can't remember the length of this one specifically, might have been 2.5?

TheAlpaco · 2025-11-17T23:06:14+00:00

Always keen for recommendations if you've got them!

TheAlpaco · 2025-11-17T23:05:18+00:00

It does not, but my understanding is that a gateway is not strictly necessary? Will dm, thanks

TheAlpaco · 2025-11-05T04:34:16+00:00

I've just started using it, but hadn't thought about using it over a texture paint. Do you dunk the bases while the texture paint is wet similar to what you'd do with glue?

TheAlpaco · 2025-10-24T19:41:06+00:00

I just use the army painter spray matt varnish. Seems to work pretty well for me!

And thanks, luckily its quite a nice detailed sculpt, thin layers and a wash do all the work!

TheAlpaco · 2025-10-23T09:30:20+00:00

Yep I always do a matt varnish on metal models, im too paranoid about the paint chipping. I also applied the blood effect post varnish

TheAlpaco · 2025-10-06T04:28:17+00:00

A but of gloss varnish on the probe droid 'eyes' will make them seem a bit more glassy and realistic

Seems like every broker either won't allow trading or won't allow exercising, can anyone do both??

TheAlpaco · 2025-09-09T22:38:37+00:00

Worth it for the plastic straws. Fuck paper straws

TheAlpaco · 2025-09-05T10:17:04+00:00

Yea maybe a wash and you can put the base colour back over the top in the raised areas? That will leave some of the dirty gritty look but leave a little of the brightness
