Pledge:  Get cracking with Warriors of Athena, Foundry Argonauts are next up.  My order from North Star isn’t here yet so I don’t actually have the rules.  I need to enhance my calm.  It was only published yesterday 🙂

Answer: Should there be reboot of any game at any given point in time?

It depends is the fence-sitters answer.  We all unde…[Read more]

Pledge: finish my last commission piece today. A Blood Angels captain. Then, I’m on to my own stuff…

Refresh: I don’t mind the GW cycle, it does keep things moving, they have their way to do things, people tend to hate it or tolerate it. I’ve been doing GW since the Rogue Trader/2nd edition days, so it’s nothing new. The only reboot they did…[Read more]

Shatterpoint is a game AMG wanted to make not sure it was a game any players really wanted. You can see how Marvel games makes sense, major heros fighting against each other as in the comics and and films just feel right. In Starwars while the duels are the focus of the main story lines they are but a back drop to the overall action and 95% of the…[Read more]

Spaceballs getting a reboot seems odd to me. The original was fine at the time, but the jokes are old… as are the actors and Barf is deceased. Pizza the Hutt almost put me off pizza!

On to the other stuff.

Pledge: Paint more Mythic Battles: Pantheon… maybe…

Buy MCP X-Men Starter Set… probably…

Get some use out of the second hand…[Read more]

Isn’t Atomic Mass people that left Privateer Press? I’m sure Will Schick used to work for them.

Never heard of Gate but Hell Yeah for SPACEBALLS 2

Pledge: Finish off more with my Harryhausen Hellenics

A reboot of a system is good beyond the 5 year mark. Ideally it might be 8-10 but the overhaul of a game is tricky to run with. White Wolf had some good work on their WoD and the tweaks were done piecemeal to the overall game universe which had no balance interacting with each other. D&D has…[Read more]

Pledge: Paint stuff. Seriously.

But since in the real world games are never perfect and tend to change over time with new stuff added in that potentially breaks things a reboot can be a good thing.…[Read more]

New thread, I came early:

[unofficial weekender] $GAME is dead! Long live $GAME

@limburger Will Schick is the founder of Atomic Mass and designer of mcp so he does know the games.  This will be the third shift in role.  Not heard the other name possibly the Asmodee handler

The optic of here is an new project off the back of our last new one is going to maintenance is not great

It sounds positive for Legion which is my p…[Read more]

Two attempts and still corporate waffle, I find the difference between them in interviews and the written releases jarring.  I suspect the hand of Asmodee.  Although it does seem it is effectively a slow end.

I may pick up a few extra boxes and I don’t regret my late buy in of the game and a game being done has never signalled an end for me

I d…[Read more]
