Mann's Model Moments: System Wars Review Part 1 - Sorylian Ships

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2015/08/system-wars-review-part-1-sorylian-ships.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Friday, 7 August 2015. System Wars Review Part 1 - Sorylian Ships. The Amentum is very comparable to the Hasta, it has one less HP, an extra AP and PD, but otherwise it's the same. In second-line stats it has no WC like the Hasta does, but it packs an extra Shield - the highest baseline shield stat of ANY Sorylian ship - they're serious about protection on the Amentum! First, it gets to choose up to TWO Hardpoints, and it has a lot of ...

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Tuesday, 23 December 2014. Sneak Peak of Return of the Overseers ships. I spent Saturday with Neil at the SG office for a long overdue catch up about all things Firestorm (plus Planetfall and a few other bits and pieces! Here it is with a Maelstrom Battleship. And the underside;. You can't see it well here, but the underside is scalloped in, making the Oannes look very sleek and fast. Here you can see the large redirection crystal:.

Mann's Model Moments: Kurak Alliance & Zenian League Fleet Manuals

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2014/04/kurak-alliance-zenian-league-fleet.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Thursday, 24 April 2014. Kurak Alliance and Zenian League Fleet Manuals. I was lucky enough to get the first copies of these outside of SG, so thought I'd share some of the goodness! Of course, these books are optional for anyone who has the main v2.0 rulebook, as the stats for the fleets concerned are all available online as free PDF downloads. That, of course, is not the point! Anyway, here they are;. And also a nice surprise for man...

I started off the month by a visit to Evercreech Junction to catch up with Neil and Ben at Spartan Games, as it had been a few months since (before Attack in Reading back in November). Of course, they've been ever-so-slightly. Busy with FSA v2.0, which they tell me actually overtook. The Marshal is an absolute beast!

Mann's Model Moments: Planetfall Old & New Size Comparisons

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2014/08/planetfall-old-new-size-comparisons.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Sunday, 31 August 2014. Planetfall Old and New Size Comparisons. On the SG Community there's been some speculation about the size of the new Planetfall models with respect to the older Firestorm Invasion forces previously available from Studio Sparta. As I had the opportunity today, I thought I'd take some comparison pics for all interested. Just looking at these a little closer, here's the new light tank with the Night Gaunt. At the o...

Mann's Model Moments: Firestorm v2.0 - A Review

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2013/12/firestorm-v20-review.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Friday, 6 December 2013. Firestorm v2.0 - A Review. Overview and Presentation: 9.5/10. OK, so let me get one thing off my chest.I must admit that I'm not super-excited about the front cover of the new book - I don't think it really portrays the excitement of the game in the way that the v1.0 cover did. I know this is a personal preference, but I'd have preferred some more "action" visible myself. Next up you have the Order of Play (col...

Mann's Model Moments: System Wars Review Part 1 - Terran Ships

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2015/08/system-wars-review-part-1-terran-ships.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Friday, 7 August 2015. System Wars Review Part 1 - Terran Ships. Last in this first look at the System Wars ships are the Terrans - those whiny, nuke-toting imperialists who always complain about their stuff. Well, here are a few things they can't moan about. Alternatively, you can add 1" of movements and increase the Planetfall MAR if you feel like a quick dash to the objective. For non-planetfall builds, you can upgrade her Turre...

Mann's Model Moments: Cleaning painting palettes

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2015/08/cleaning-painting-palettes.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Saturday, 8 August 2015. Acrylic paints are extremely popular, and for good reason - they have good adhesion properties, good coverage, sensible price points, low odour and toxicity, are water soluble and so on. Of course, when you're painting minis you frequently use small quantities of paint for specific tasks, then move on etc. If you're using a plastic palette, this means you often end up with this;. When it's dry, it will look som...

Mann's Model Moments: System Wars Review Part 3 - Scenarios

http://mannmomo.blogspot.com/2015/08/system-wars-review-part-3-scenarios.html

Various ramblings on the modelling and gaming antics of my son and I. Friday, 14 August 2015. System Wars Review Part 3 - Scenarios. As a project, developing and introducing invasion fleets, model stats and scenarios all at once was the most challenging project I've worked on to date, primarily because there were no boundaries - where everything is fluid, it becomes very difficult to build on anything - how should the ships score? How can they work in the scenario? 1) Be fun to play. During development, ...
