Robin: Holy positional multitude, Batman! Eight people on a gigantic plastic mat?The Gencon Indy Monster Mash presented an 8 player field. The photos of it look awesome!
Batman: Sounds like a recipe for Innuendo, if you ask me!
Robin: Sounds like a good time to me!
I counted about 34 spaces wide, but I lost count of the length at about 40 spaces.
The field was littered with
Overall the design of the map was made to impersonate New York, the city of the Statue of Liberty, which naturally had that structure placed in the very centre of the field in the midst of a river.
But enough of things that are far from my own availability
This weekend coming is the weekend of "ALL YOU CAN EAT!".
I'm quite excited in case you couldn't tell.
Everyone will be running around throughout the day with their forces, trading forces and monsters here and there, and possibly bringing in some fresh faces.
It'll be very good.
Last night, Scotty and I met a new player. His name is Kevin. He's a nice fellow and keen to play, asking lots of questions about the game and the locals and what monsters are being used. I was honest and told him that our gaming group is fairly even with hardly any 'power-gamers', which is true. We all play what we like, or whatever has come out at the time in my case, and we're very lenient on everyone's style of play.
We had a game and he pulled out his Martians, with Phobos-7 leading the fray, and I pulled out Mogroth (I wanted to go really easy on the fellow) to give him a explanation of the rules and how the game goes. The poor fellow was having some bad dice rolls, however. Three of four turns, he was unable to get a successful Power-up roll,
On the same night, I found out that Monpoc NOW! will be coming out this Friday (9th) and our local store has the Mega King Kondo's available! The deal is that you buy a case of each and you get a Mega King Kondo!
Huzzah!
So soon there will be unit and monster reviews-slash-mockups here for the Subterran Uprising.
In related news, we figured out what the Morpher is for the "Empire of the Apes" in series 6.
Four Monkeys, brought together by a strong truce with the empire, they bring fear and disruption to the world.
They are... a Barrel of Monkeys.
Cool, is Kevin coming on Sunday?
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile.. "hey new guy, whatcha got there?" "oh, I like Phobos, pewpewpew!" "no worries, I'll GO EASY on you with this guy, you can't shoot him" :)
So very much looking forward to the molemen
Haha, yes I realise the irony, but it's Mogroth and he was the only non-morpher monster I had available. And it's Mogroth. Do you see what I'm getting at?
ReplyDeleteThroughout the game, there was only one instance where Decoy was active. Otherwise, I swapped between mauling units and shooting him.
And yes, apparently Kevin is coming Sunday so we might have another player in for All You Can Eat!
