The Shipyard / Re: Showing of my WiPs

« on: September 18, 2017, 04:49:15 am »

I plan on going the way of the studio scheme. Green, lighter highlight and some red sprinkled in. And blue glow effects. Will try it out on the destroyers to see if it pleases my eye.

And i need more frigates, to field a pure veydreth battlefleet.

Glad to see you are still painting after the crash.

I seem to never run out of models to paint. Even Spartan models.

So, a new place to brag with my superior painting skills...or something like that. 

The latest addition to my sorylian fleet, a battlestation:

Firestorm Armada / Re: "Fanstorm" Armada

-I'm honestly not sure how much time this will really save during gameplay; to me, the biggest time sink during the movement phase has been trying to figure out where to move my minis, not the actual mechanics of moving them to the location that I have chosen. Granted, that is just a gut feel, with no empirical evidence to back that up.

What do you all think?

I am with you on this one. We also use a proxi base for movement in tight quarters, so you can see if you can go there before shuffling your models around.

Another timesink in my turns is shooting. Here also the process of deciding which firing solution on which target takes the most time, the compiling of the dice pools and the rolling are fast.

Firestorm Armada / Re: FsA 2.0 or 3.0

I have to say, with all the leaked infos i am glad, that no knew version of the ruleset is coming. Some of the proposed changes seemed a little far off for my taste. Other features looked ok (command points, some changes to SRS).

I mainly play my Sorylian fleet.

But i also own a Kedorian fleet. And after the last impulse buying a Veydreth fleet is assembled and ready to get painted.

Most of my stuff can be seen her: Link to blog.

News and Rumors / Re: SPARTAN CLOSING

Spartan closing is sad.

A good thing, that the Firestorm Armada rules are a solid set and really only need some minor tweaking.

The FSA playgroup in our club made some big last orders for all the stuff on the "nice-to-have" list, before it is out of stock, so we are set for long time.

Would be nice if someone takes the IP and sells new (or the current) models.

So, this will be my new place for anything Firestorm related, i think.
