Flames of War at the NOVA 2012

Hello All,

RGH Here with a one more set of Pictures from NOVA 2012. Last but certainly not least I bring you Flames of War! This was the first year for this fantastic game. As a matter of fact I ended up purchasing my own (Early war German) army from Spiky Bits. The more I look into this game the more I understand it's appeal.

Check out these cool shots of tables and armies from the Late war Tournament.



















Till Next Time

WarMachine and Hordes at the NOVA 2012


Hello All,

Continuing with my picture coverage of the events at NOVA 2012 I bring you Warmachine and Hordes. These guys were amazing! they ran tournaments around the clock through the entire event. Literally right up to the awards ceremony. 

Game in Progress sometime Saturday
Another Game



Privateer Press recently released a series of "colossal" warjacks and Beasts that are freaking awesome! check these out.


   
Lastly the folks at Tectonic Craft Studios (one of our venders ) let us borrow a tables worth of their cool product. Their site can be seen here.


 

 Well that's all for now...


Till next time

INFINITY AT THE NOVA 2012

Hello all,

As you already know we had some new games at the NOVA this year one of them is called Infinity and its pretty cool! I did not get a chance to play but many of my friends did and they could not say enough about this small scale skirmish system that plays more like Kill Team or Necromunda than 40K or Fantasy.
So with out further adieu here are some shots of the fun!


Armies
Nice display board
Another good one!

These guys are soooo different from 40K dudesmen
Tables

Demo Table 1
Demo Table 2
NOVA 40K terrain pressed into service
Refinery
Shanty town
More Shanty goodness
Tech Town

So this is what happened to the final piece of terrain from the last build session







 From what I saw the Infinity tournament was a great success and I hope it will continue for years to come.

Till next time

More Pictures from the 2012 NOVA Open (blogger is having issues)

 Hello all,

Sorry for the delay but it looks like Blogger has been having some issues the last few days. Well anyway I have more pictures from the 2012 nova. This time around I am focusing on 40K. It looks like Necrons are the new Grey Knights as everyone and their brother had a Necron army. Here are a few that I got snapshots of.


That is not to say that Grey Knight armies were not around as seen below.



6th Edition seems to be opening doors for people to bring armies off the bench and onto the table. Here are some pictures of a couple of former bench warmers getting a chance to see some game time.


Games were played all through the extended weekend with tournaments going on through the days and open gaming all night.  In all it looked like everyone in attendance had a great time. I know I did.



Lastly here is a picture of a cannon painted by one of our local gamers. Pretty cool huh?


Well there will be more to come soon

Till next time…
