Warlord,Hordes,C3 and Gencon

Its been almost a month since my last update and to be honest it has actually been pretty quite on the gaming front around here. The local gaming group continues to play Warlord but we are branching out people are starting to play Games Workshop games again specially with the release of 40k 5th edition coming soon. We are also talking about Confrontation again which is always a good thing. I personally am gearing up for the big(possibly last) C3 tournament that is being held at Gencon this year. The goal at the moment it to get a couple of games in between now and August so I can have the best list possible ready to go which also means a fully painted army.

With all the fun being had with Warlord,C3 and Warhammer I have also decided to finish up my Trollbloods for Hordes. I know what some of you are thinking, "But you hate Privateer Press", not true I am not a fan of Warmachine, Hordes to me has better game mechanics and just plays better. Its also a newer game so its a bit easier to jump into. Currently I have about 500 points and am building up to 750 in anticipation for the fall league.

Gencon, what else is there to say its that time and year and Gencon is only 5 weeks away. 5 weeks until a much needed vacation and the nice thing is this year I pretty much am going obligation free, not demos to do, no major gaming group presence its all about basking in gaming goodness and seeing what is out there. With that said I am going to do my best to post to the blog nightly and have pictures if I can get my hands on a camera.

In other minor news, I have finished the 4th book in the Dresden Files series in the last couple of days. I have also been playing EVE online, again after it most resent update I got an additional 14 days of trial period to try out the new PVP features unfortunately I don't have any characters that qualify for the features in game yet so I have been doing as much as I can to at least see PVP stuff before the trial runs out. PVP was one of the things I was most interested in but EVE is kinda of a long tedious game and it was going to take way to long for me to get to the point where I could get into the main PVP part of the game the new features seem to fix this.

Thats it for now hopefully I will have another update prior to Gencon but I make no promises as life always seems to find a way to distract me. Oh almost forgot I added a new link to the navigation on the site you Circle City Gamers a forum of gamers in Central Indiana to meet up,discuss all types of gaming.
