Happy Birthday to me!!!

Another year older. This one is a big one for me. I understand they are just years, but the ones with "0"s always seem to be the hardest for me.

Not much going on. Wifey threw me a small get together at the FLGS on Friday, and tonight its dinner with some family.

As a side note, I have the pics but have yet to write the info for the second part of my Dirz post. I  hope to get a chance to get it done soon. I have stumbled onto a new distraction.

World of tanks is a free to play multi-player online tank fighting game. It is not perfect but it has some great things I like about it in addition to it being free. Check it out. The game is free and the online play is free. There is of course a pay portion but I am not sure it really makes a difference for the everyday player.

One Year going...and my own little top ten.

Well well, it seems I have been going at this blog thing for a year now. I honestly have to tell you I not only figured at the beginning that this thing would fade long before a year, but there have been times during this year that I thought the same.

With that the blog sits here a year older and I figured it might be a good time to toot my horn a bit. Hopefully there is something in this list that is useful to you or maybe it was what made one of those cool people click the follow link to help boost my ego.

With that I thought I would do my own little top ten.

Confrontation-Alchemist of Dirz (Grunts and Beasts)

The Alchemist of Dirz are my favorite army that Rackham put out. There is something about the way the minis look that I just love. They are the army I have played the most, the one I enjoy the most, and of course the one I have the most miniatures for. Of course since it is the one I have the most for it is gonna take two parts to do them all justice. Having said that lets start with the troopers and beasts and then later I will look at the characters, mages, and monks. I also want to apologize there are a couple of pictures that did not come out that well and I will fix them later if I get a chance.

Confrontation-Wolfen of Yilla

So to continue with what I started I bring you some images of my Wolfen of Yilla. It was an odd set of circumstances that led me to this army. I have sister that works for one of the local apartment complexes. Her job is to make newly emptied apartments ready for new tenants. One day she called and said she found had a bag of stuff that looked like some of the things I played with abandoned in one of the apartments. To my surprise it was a Wal Mart bag full of Wolfen. Some of the models were in poor shape, and I ended up buying a bunch more minis for the army but what can I say. What I did use from that bag were free.

Confrontation-Dwarves of Tir Na Bor

Well with the recent announcement that Legacy Miniatures will start producing Confrontation miniatures I am well bit with the bug. I normally get one of these every 5 or 6 months anyway and this has now become a bad one. I plan on playing games and I will be doing a few posts showcasing what I have done in the past. Keep in mind these are just the models I have painted or quite a bit done. I have a ridiculous amount not painted that I am not showing.
