I really enjoy the story, and the paint jobs are amazing !

I'm with PJON, really appreciate these reports; you have a great, relaxed writing style, and it's always nice to see more of your minis. Plus, I can never get a group together, so it's nice to kind of go through a game, especially Scenarios I've never gotten to play. Cheers, Trev!

[samuraitrev]

Thank you both so much. It makes my day to know people are reading these reports and enjoying them. It makes it worth while doing them. I will have more painted figures and another game report coming soon!

I can't believe Billy was so danged useful. He never does anything for us when we play. I guess it is time to give him another shot... maybe. Love the Elvis Zed.

Thanks OD and vikinglad. Yeah regarding Billy this is not the first time he's done really well. That extra movement he's got can really help sometimes. I say cut the snivelling weed some slack he may surprise you. If he fails feed him to the brain munchers
