Okay, I went out and bought a few more things on Boxing Day...
It was a nice ride... Clear, which often means FUCKING COLD around this time of year, but today was quite mild (as it has been for a few days now)
I arrived four minutes after they opened and the store was already packed with people and the line went from the register all the way to the back of the store! (Not the longest line up I've seen in there on a Boxing Day... but still!)
I just grabbed a few things and was on my way home within 20 minutes, most of that was standing in line!
There was a PLAN for all the purchases. I went in looking for specific things, got those and got out!
I got a box of Tree-Revenants (which can be built as Spite-Revenants) to have a second unit of Spite Revenants. With those, I can field the Lost-Song Spirits Regiment of Renown - which includes a Treelord and two units of five Spite-Revenants. The Regiment can be included in Soulblight Gravelords or Nighthaunt army! (or Idoneth Deepkin, or Ossiarch Bonereapers, or Flesh-Eater Courts - but I don't have any of those!)
The box of Deadwalker Zombies I'm splitting with Orion. Units of Deadwalker Zombies are fielded in groups of TWENTY. Warhammer Quest: Cursed City only comes with ten. So I suggested we could split a box to add to our Cursed City zombies to each have a unit of twenty in our respective Soulblight Gravelord armies!
The Arkonaut Company is to make up the crew of the Grungi's Face (and later the Grund) - Kharadron Overlord skyvessels the player characters encounter in the first few adventures - and if all goes according to plan, become recurring allies!
The Magister on the Disc of Tzeentch I picked up because Tzeentch is going to be a regular foe in the campaign (as ALL the player characters met because they were chasing down a Sorceress of Tzeentch)... but also this model leads the Disciples of Tzeentch Spearhead Army... and isn't normally available on it's own anymore (not on GWs online catalogue) and I DON'T want to buy a Spearhead Army box to play a Disciples of Tzeentch Spearhead army... because I just don't need MORE Kairic Acolytes or Tzaangors. I would also need to pick up some Flamers of Tzeentch, at some point, to finish up the army... But as Tzeetch are going to be recurring opponents in the campaign... I'd probably pick those up at some point, anyway...
The book, Blackened Earth, is an adventure for Soulbound in the city of Greywater Fastness in the realm of Ghyran. Most of the antagonists are followers of Khorne and Skaven - both of which I already HAVE a lot of! And Sylvaneth also show up in the game (maybe allies... maybe opponents) but I have some of those already, as well!
Probably getting ahead of myself as the campaign is currently heading towards Brightspear, a city in the Southwest of corner of Aqshy... and I have other adventures and an entire campaign (Shadows in the Mist) set in Aqshy... but I have high hopes it will be a fairly regular, on-going thing!
After I got home we started playing ANOTHER game of Warhammer Quest: Cursed City! I'll be posting a game report of that later this evening!
So this should be IT for the year... and hopefully shouldn't need anything else for a bit!
Snow picture looks great.
