Horus Heresy Session Report – Mission 4

Horus Heresy Session Report – Mission 4

Jester and I got a game of Horus Heresy in last night and it was a blast. We played the fourth mission – we are slowly working our way though them all. This mission played quite a bit like the first three with two big differences. The first difference is that four of the zones were ‘nuked’ and were impassable. The second difference was that we had a lot more freedom in placing our troops. Since I played the traitors last time it was my turn for the loyalists. We started out by deploying the nuke markers to show which zones were impassible. We ended up with the eastern section of the palace being walled off. This was both a boon and a bane to me as it kept me safe, but also cut off my access to one of the space ports (which controlling all four is one...

Weekend Malifaux Tourney

Had our first Malifaux tournament this weekend and it was a blast. Good turnout (although we always like to see more Malifauxians out and about) and we got a chance to play through the Halloween Scenarios that Wyrd put out.

I play theSugarKing quite a...

What I’ve Been Up To

Been a while since I had time to post on here. I’ve been quite busy. First up, the shop is still open and doing well. Last night I went through all the numbers from October and had a bit of a surprise. In August and September I focused a lot of my efforts on the online component – bartertown and eBay. In October I pretty much ignored all my online sales – kind of as an experiment and partly out of laziness. The results were pretty shocking. In August and September I had twice as much revenue as I did in October. Due to the much narrower margins on online sales this did not result to twice as much income. I actually turned a small profit in August and September, and had a small deficit in October. At first glance I was crushed. I was seeing the end of...
