Dragons,MMOs and Miniatures

Well another day another opportunity to get some painting done. Well at least one can try, last night I was about to get a quick dry bush highlight layer onto the Cynwall Dragon I am working on for a friend. Not a lot of progress but the majority of the painting is complete and not I am down to the final wash then basing and sealing and it out the door or rather off the "to be completed" shelf.

In other dragon related news...Rackham has release some images of the new Dirz Wyrm. For anyone that has played Confrontation and know a little bit about the Dirz this model is immediatly recognizable as a Driz creature and quite possible a clone. I will say that I am still a bit confused on why the Cynwall Dragon does not have fore limbs and the Cynwall Wyrm does and this model does as well. It also need to be said that the new Dirz Wyrm is must smaller than the Cynwall Wyrm actually he is very close to the size of the Cynwall Dragon. Could this mean that the Cynwall with be about to use the Dragon model as a Wyrm making him a Titan. Rackham if you are listening make it happen the dragon is great but the 200+ dollar Titan model is a bit much.

Enough about dragons and Rackham Tabula Rasa recently announced that version 1.6 is hitting the servers today and at the latest tomorrow. I can't say that I was unhappy with version 1.5 but with the changes coming in 1.6 mainly the ability to respec your character by participating in Control Point defense and attacks is enough to make me want to spend a bit more time in game. Specially since Guild Wars Factions has consumed most of my MMO gaming time as of late. It doesn't help that GWF has little down time and there is always something to do for lack of a better term the game is just fun, much like Tabula Rasa is but very different all the same.

That about wraps it up for today I would like to mention that I do have a FoW lot up for sale over at BarterTown if anyone is interested details can be found here. Tonight is also Infinity gaming night for my local group hopefully I can get a battle report up using one of the operation paradiso missions. On a side note if anyone in the local Indy area is interested I am trying to arrange a Babylon 5 CCG game. It would be just for fun and I would provide any necessary materials for anyone interested. Anyone interested in the B5 CCG game leave a comment.
