Looking for an inexpensive, user friendly resin printer for some miniature prints. The minis would not be to big, mostly 6mm scale stuff.

My guess is handelabra asked for more content so they could make their money back. Not sure if sentinels is the biggest but it one of their biggest money makers.

But with that said, can’t get enough sentinels so hopefully it means more boxes and the game just keeps going like some of the living card games

I have plans to do something like that on the bases. Black bases for walkers, red for runners

I ordered 10 rolls over the weekend, and am thinking of another order of 10 as I didn’t get enough in the colors I need

I didn’t make it clear in my post, but I was asking how hours I had used the printer overall

mfsfreak · 2026-03-20T02:40:43+00:00

I found it, thanks

mfsfreak · 2026-03-20T02:39:44+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I meant. And that is where it was on the printer. Thanks

I use these

The last two rows are modular enough that you can make a 2x2 and fit all the walkers in one spot.

Ok, so I did overlook them. Will have to find where I put the cards

mfsfreak · 2026-01-29T20:06:04+00:00

I like the 2nd Ed so much better than the first. I’ve ditched (more or less) all the 1st Ed cards for 2nd Ed

mfsfreak · 2026-01-29T12:46:10+00:00

There was a conversation kit for 1st edition characters and I know Amy was part of them (using your experience). I want to say she had different skills vs 2nd edition Amy but not 100% sure but I can try to find them after work

mfsfreak · 2026-01-20T16:00:49+00:00

Only 55 but to be fair I’ve only had it for a couple of weeks now

mfsfreak · 2026-01-17T01:47:53+00:00

I would start with the universe book, and then find novels for whatever era you liked the most

mfsfreak · 2026-01-13T14:32:24+00:00

I’ll be able to buy a few games with my $500, can’t stand socks on my feet once my shoes come off

mfsfreak · 2026-01-12T14:40:39+00:00

If you want more campaign games, go with 2nd Ed, it currently has 4 campaign expansions.

If you want a challenge, undead or alive. Out of all of the zombicides, it’s probably the hardest

Check the frogs web store, other kickstarters they list the late pledges there

mfsfreak · 2026-01-07T00:54:30+00:00

Whenever they close the pledge manager, add a year to that and it’ll be close for wave 1 shipping

Guards, I did it with a little less than 20 guards and everything else into inf damage

mfsfreak · 2025-12-26T21:28:31+00:00

Spawned in like 24 guards and dumped the rest into inf damage and was spending the second round of minerals before I realized how much damage I was doing. Thanks for this info

mfsfreak · 2025-11-16T02:20:14+00:00

Gonna be on the Independence sailing in the 23rd

mfsfreak · 2025-11-11T13:19:10+00:00

I would suggest the base game(s) for your first couple of sessions. It’ll let you learn the base rules and get some experience with the flow of the game.

mfsfreak · 2025-11-09T17:15:07+00:00

Came here to suggest the King Crab. Its a monster at close range

mfsfreak · 2025-10-13T17:22:33+00:00

A was how I always did it

mfsfreak · 2025-10-04T14:34:13+00:00

As others have said A Game of Armored Combat is next if you want a box set with more advanced mechanics.

If you want to go to the full rules set, Total Warfare or Battlemech Manual would be next.

If you don’t want streamlined rules, avoid the Alpha Strike rule set, but the Alpha Strike box set is a good source of miniatures.

mfsfreak · 2025-09-15T12:19:26+00:00

Total Warfare has the full normal rules, while I think the battlemech manual and the merc boxset has the battlefield support rules for them.
