Sunday Night Musings: Warhammer Quest

So I played some Warhammer Quest with the Brockshow this weekend, and had a good time. There's not a whole lot of strategy involved, but it was still kinda fun running through a dungeon killing things and collecting gold. Maybe by adding some role-playing elements to the mix, it would be even more enjoyable.

Of course, just the idea of playing the game again made me want to do some additional things, like come up with my own character and have him/her modeled and painted for the next playing session, etc. I just can't enjoy the game for what it is; instead, I must try and expand it beyond my means.

  • I am currently attempting to model a couple ratling guns for various bits I have in my collection. This is not easy, and I don't know why I don't just buy a couple of the models themselves. However, knowing me, I'm going to try and finish this even if it doesn't turn out well, just because I'm stubborn like that.
  • I still need to model up a full command for my second Clanrat unit.
  • When the weather gets a little warmer, I'm planning on priming the two clanrat blocks--and whatever random metallic figure left in the Eshin army--so that I will only have a bunch of painting to go.
  • Remember when I said I wasn't going to add anything to the army, and just finish it so that I could say I finished an army? Yeah, that was a good idea. I wonder what happened to it...
  • I'm not very motivated to work on my Daemons right now. I don't know what happened, but I haven't really though about putting a brush to one this week.
  • I have a lot of ideas on what to do modeling wise for my Dark Elves, but I never seem to have the right pieces and parts to make it happen. The army will never get up and running unless I just sit down and start assembling things with the items I already have instead of always thinking up ways to make them better.
  • I really want to paint the Warhammer Quest Wardancer model that Brock left at my place. I remember putting some warpaint on it waaaaaaaaaay back in the day, and I'd love to give it a fresh paint job. I think I could do it justice.
