The Freebootaz go to Salute 2013

So Salute came and the Freebootaz went and had a blast. Our first attendance in an official capacity.
A table was set with some fine looking models thanks to Andy for his Wolves, Orks, Deathwatch. Cowface for his friends Storm Ravens, me for a few Necrons and I think the star attraction was Brother Grim's 2 Warhound and the Reaver Titans. These seemed to pull in the crowds.

We were there promoting our forum The Freebootaz www.thefreebootaz.com/forum the official forum of 40K Radio podcast.

There were loads of stands with some great models and games to be had. Here is a few of the flyers/cards that I picked up.

ANVIL INDUSTRY

What I realy liked about these is their "Black OPS" Exo-Lords. models that haven't fell to far for the GW tree by the look. Some very impressive looking "SM" with great weapons options.

WARGAMES TERRAIN WORKSHOP
www.wargamesterrainworkshop.co.uk/
A company that produces some modular tables and scenery.
including a great looking BloodBowl pitch for £60 unpainted and £90 painted. Had a hold of this peice and wasnt heavy totransport at all.

DA CLASH

A kickstarter for a grest looking fantasy wrestling game
"Da Clash!" is a boardgame with miniatures for 2 players created and developed by Ammon Miniatures. Fun, fast and addictive, a game lasts for about 20 minutes.

"Unique in its kind and innovative, it is a perfect crossover between a miniatures game and a board game. Da Clash! is intended for both pure gamers and miniatures lovers.
Inspired by the Mexican Lucha Libre, Z m"


Ive jumped in this as I think that it would be a great little travel game to have.

Let the Wookie Win!!!

Well the Wookie is back in the game! I have finally done it and got back on the hobbying horse (Not the rocking kind). After what seams like a long time I have re-acquainted my hobby tools with my hands. I've been off work now since Jan 31st after having a op to remove some of the end of my collar bone. So While sat at a job rehabilitation center in sunny (well snowing actually) Oxfordshire country side I decided to bring some new Necrons with me and get on with the job in hand.
So what have I done then? Ive so far built a 3 Tomb Blades from my secret Santa, A Command Barge and half way through a Ghost Ark. Hope to have them all prepped for painting by the end of the week. I then am hoping for a Air Brush for my B'Day so will then be able to get painting again.

Stay posted for further updates

Stay Frosty
