So my first ever hardcore event! I managed to snag one of the absentee spots in the end, wrote up a quick list and juts dived in! How did it go? Not too well I’m afraid but I did hold my own and have a great time so I’m still happy with it!
Part 3 of my SmogCon report will be up soon but in the meantime I wanted to shout out for a new site that was officially announced last. The brainchild of the same guys that brought us SmogCon, they started out Livestreaming Vassal games and have now created a full site aimed at being a real centre of the community.
Part 2 of my report where we shall have a look at the event itself! There were 3 types of events: the tournaments, casual gaming and painting/modeling.
Heres the first part of my SmogCon event report guys. I’ve broken it down into 3 parts: Venue, event and games. This should make it easier to write for me and to read for you so I hope you enjoy it! (as well as the new website art w00t!)
Well what a weekend. All I can say is that I have never played Warmachine, or any other wargame for that matter, like that before. Absolutely fantastic weekend and I was just too tired to do anything when I got back Sunday. Needless to say this has left me with a lot to talk about to in the next coming days I’ll post up a few articles about the con itself, the games and lots of photos!
I would like to apologise for the lack of live coverage whilst I was there as the only bad thing about my weekend was that I had such an issue trying to get a good internet signal, just tweeting was a chore! Anyways I’ll make up for it over the next few days so stay tuned!
Thanks to those of you who voted on the last post, that kind of feedback means a lot! So I now have a twitter account @WhelpSlayer which you’ll now see is linked into a live feed at the side of the blog! Be sure to follow up for lots of mini blogging adventures! I’ll be using it a lot at SmogCon this weekend tweeting not only my games but loads of pictures as well as big results and events during the con.
I’ll be at Firestorm at around 12 I imagine, so if you see me around then feel free to come chat or have a game 😉 On that note I will also be posting a recap here on the blog each night with loads of pictures for you guys to peruse as you please! Hope that works for you lot!
SmogCon is under a week away and as such so is my first ever Warmachine event and what an event to kick off with! Its looking like it’s going to be a boat load of fun, reall looking forward to it! I do however need to finalise the lists I plan on taking as so far I’ll be playing in the 35pts steamroller and the 15pts doubles. I will of course be using the boys in red (although they wont be painted in time so more boys in silver and brown).
So I return with tidings! My apologies guys for the lack of fresh material recently, I’ve been pretty busy with work and lifes other little joys and most of my free time has gone into preparing for Smogcon! On this subject I do have a few little things to show so lets get to it!
