Hiatus

2 week break for christmas...see you around new years...

Christmas

Well, I'm a wiccan so technically it's Yule but, whatever.

Actually no, not whatever, I'm fed up with Christmas! Every year it gets less and less about family and more and more about gadgets and blinking lights. I swear to gods if I have to see another Holiday Shopping Guide, I'm just going to lose it. It seems the older I get the less I care about the gifts, and the more I realise Christmas just doesn't mean much anymore. It's sad.

Well this year is different, screw the presents, screw the lights. I just want to spend time with my family.

To spread the chear, just listen here and have a

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HC Tournament Report 12/13/07

Here we go, the weekly Heroclix tourney report. Nothing formal, just me talking about the goings on at my local HC tournaments that are held every thursday.

-------------------------

This week was a floor event,

I used a really fun and thematic team this week...

Hulkbuster -165

Guardsman x4 - 128

And Stay Down - 6

-------------------------

Well my first game was against Ike, he was playing Apocalypse with Fortitude and Repulser Shields. I was wary about it because Apoc is a beast.

We start off setting up positions, but I end up misjudging and fucking my first attack up. So it takes 3 turns to reposition. I end up hitting him a few times and every fig ended up in a big heap in the middle of the map. He takes down a guardsman but the others rally and smack him for four damage on a critical hit. Hulkbuster swoops in a finishes him off.

It would have been over for me on turn 5 if Apoc could have rolled higher than a 4, but he failed 5 times in a row. I got lucky, that's about it.

1-0

My second game was against James and his avengers + rampaging hulk, it wasn't theme of course. Bad rolls on my part ended it for me quickly, I don't wanna talk about it.

1-1

My last game was against Riza and her phalanx of randomness. Not very exciting, the game ended up going to time with me winning by 32 points.

2-1

-----------

It was a fun week, my prize was a zombie spidey from M+M. Next week is a 300 pt restricted...interesting...

I'm dying to use Silver Savage so he's prolly gonna be what I play w/ a warrior theme.

Well, that's it. Transmission Closed...

TDK 2000

Movie time!

--------------------



The Dark Knight (2008), sequel to Batman Begins (2005), is the upcoming second film in Christopher Nolan's (Director) reboot of the Batman film franchise. Christian Bale is reprising his role as Batman from the first film, joined by a new villian, the psychopathic Joker (Heath Ledger). Also appearing is Aaron Eckhart (Harvey Dent/Two Face) but, it's unsure if he will have too much of a villianous role yet.



OK, enough with the mumbo jumbo journalist crap....



-------------------



I think based on what I've seen, this movie is going to be every bit as good as the last, if not better. Ledger as Joker looks great and sounds truly unbalanced. And we'll finally get a Batman costume which lets the wearer move his damn head. I'm hoping for more gadgets and violence in this chapter and less romantic sub-plots.



I'm excited and can't wait.....and to all the naysayers I ask.... Why so serious?
