Warfighter Update

Still have not played a game, busy as I’ve been with other stuff. *cough*Batman Miniatures Game*cough*

I did, however, purchase Tabletop Simulator and the downloadable content for Warfighter, which gives you the entire game PLUS all the expansions.  All for much lower than the physical expansions would cost.

But that didn’t stop me from getting a couple more physical expansions for my original game, namely the Support  and Eastern European Adversaries sets, and the Foot Locker.

UAVs and stuff
Gotta have my SAS boys stay close to home, ya?
Should be more than enough storage space, seeing that I’m not picking up all of the expansions, which this is designed for.

It was this video that sold me on the Foot Locker:

Well, this video and me discovering how shallow the current Warfighter box is.  As it stands now, the box will not close all the way.

Plans for my first game are still to take a squad into the South American jungles to find a drug cartel leader.

Star Trek 50th

There were 29 episodes of the Original Series that premiered in the year I was born, 1967.  These were the voyages from the back half of Season 1 and the front of Season 2.

I haven’t written about all of them, just favorites of mine.  Perhaps I should have been doing them all along. Ah well.  I’ll continue blogging about my favorite episodes.

For the record, “The Alternative Factor” premiered 50 years ago today.

It was never one of my favorite episodes, truth be told, but it may have been the first time I ever heard of the idea of parallel universes.

And this was the first episode where one of my favorite ‘minor’ Enterprise crewmen got his first screen credit.

Alternative Crew

Subbing in this guy for Adam West and Tim Drake Robin brings the total down to 334.

Which then leaves some points and monies for some gear.  The other list used up all available funding/money

I’m a little disappointed that there’s no Michael Keaton Batman figure.  But I’m more than happy with the Adam West and Ben Affleck figures, along with the ‘classic’ comic Batman.

First Crew?

Playing around with Hero-Builder, I came up with what may be my first 350-point team for the Batman Miniature Game.  It actually comes up to 352 points.

Na na na na na na na na Batman!
With Robin, the Boy Wonder!
Gordon and his SWAT team
Redshirts, er, additional cops…
