What type of terrain's do you build?

I've sort of been wanting to try that myself, just for the fun of it.

Most recently, I created a couple of forest terrain pieces. A friend is borrowing them at the moment or I'd take a pic, but it's basically a piece of styrene plastic sheet cut to an irregular shape about 8" across. Then, I took some model railroad trees and glued the bases down. These trees detach at the base which is useful for storage and when a large model is moving through the woods I can take the trees out of the way.

Then, for the bare trees that have lost their leaves I glued some railroad scenery autumn leaves to the ground around the tree.

Finally, I spray painted the sheet with natural forest floor looking colors.

Works decently well.

Have you ever wondered what Marvin the Martian's face really looked like? All you see is a shadow.

Don't be so sure. That helmet doesn't cover the whole thing and you do see his face in profile at the right angles.

Which Java IDE and why?

Eclipse. All day long.

It's free, it's very popular which means there's a lot of support out there, and it's got plenty of plugins to make it do whatever you want it to.

Pictures. We need pictures of awesomeness. :O

I kind of want to slowly build a table. Wouldn't need it, but I like building terrariums and stuff, and I think it'd be fun.

For glory, or for honor?

Okay I'll upload some pics when I get my terrain back. (It's loaned out.)

For honor. Always.


By the way, I got the Vengeance book yesterday. I haven't looked at it in detail but the only new rules appear to be about a new kind of u nit called a Warcaster unit. Other than that they have some new casters, jacks and solos for each faction. (Menoth totally gets a chariot Warcaster. This is tres awesomesauce.)

peanut butter or jelly?

Peanut Butter. Crunchy.

Yesh. <3 I hadn't seen the Menoth caster...sounds scary, to be honest. Does it count as cavalry?

Apparently it's an Epic Cavalry Battle Engine Warcaster.

I must have one.

Dadgum. XD Though I've heard that they put Striker on a horse, so I shouldn't complain too much.

I should probably just set up a bank account under Privateer Press?

Yeah, better get that done now...

Why now? O_o
