By this stage I`m actually really wanting to see a game played using this mountain of stone flesh looking monstrosities. <br /><br />Mention of Shadows Of Brimstone reminds me. I played a good game of this a while ago (last week) and actually remembered at the time to take copious notes and lots of photos (most of which, by sheer chance, came out REALLY nicely). I should write it up as a batrep/AAR sometime, it played out pretty neat and was close right to the very end of the last move.... also had a (custom) cowboy DW and assistant theme running all the way through it.<br /><br />Nice post Simon :-)Stephen Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704275344468801259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-15276327739306552622017-10-09T00:06:20.205-07:002017-10-09T00:06:20.205-07:00nice crusader, he looks very grim and determined ;...nice crusader, he looks very grim and determined ;-)Da Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-66876282419380905522017-10-08T23:49:59.931-07:002017-10-08T23:49:59.931-07:00What an interesting figure that crusader is.

But do have a Zed-based BatRep in mind using "M&DRG" if I can get the scenery painted in time!!<br /><br />I'm pleased there is a little Boromite love out there, and these will continue to 'pop' up in posts as I strive towards my 500 point scouting force goal.<br /><br />There are lots of "Heroclix" and "Horrorclix" clowns out there, including official Joker thugs; but they cost an arm and a leg to buy from the UK.

But ultimately I hope to paint the entire Twilight Order up.<br /><br />The Boromites continue to prove to be the most fiddly range of minis I've experienced in a long time. Such a shame as I really like their backstory etc. Still, the half-way mark has finally been crossed.<br /><br />I'm trying to expand all the gangs of my "Gotham" campaign, and add a few new ones for future fights. But felt the Joker would be my first port of call... and obviously Mister J will need his trusty female sidekick at some point soon too.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-87519902512950922042017-10-08T02:25:39.362-07:002017-10-08T02:25:39.362-07:00Cheers Phil.

Likewise I want to 'bulk up' the Joker's gang. The Boromites will continue to plague me until I get them done, as they're sat on my desk persistently pleading to get painted - hence my desire to get them out the way over the next few weeks/months.
