Top view


Three more terminals


Classic beige


Couldn't help myself - electric dreams!
 
+++Transmition received+++

What weird eggs are these?


And one is already open, which means...


Hold on, I'll just check the database...


Errr, guys...


There's a lot of blips...


Another twelve of them!


I've got them on monitor...


They've breached the wall...


They're coming this way!


We can't stop them!


+++Transmition ends+++
 
Four more crates.
Because...
 
A few extra bits of usefullness to run the game next week.

The stuff of nightmares, a pair of facehuggers!


Really nasty idea


Leaping to capture new victims


Eeep!


A pair of high tech computer terminals


Living in electric dreams...


Sure my Uni had these as high tech in the 90s.


Peek, poke, bytes and ram!


Supply boxes, hopefully with something useful inside.


A & B guns, UA 571-C Automated Sentry Gun


Special edition anyone?


Dakka dakka


"It's wall to wall in there man!"
 
 
Got hold of the 'In The Pipe, Five-by-Five' expansion.
So, here we go, Ferro and Spunkmeyer.


Pistols vs Aliens, not going to end well.


Useful that the name the bases, allows you to identify the bodies...


Pew?


The four named and different warriors, the Guard, Brute, Sulker and Scout, just gives you a bit of variety.


Interesting poses


Waiting


And Ferro's spare head


Four more alien drones from the original set. Well, I needed all eight for last night's game.


Takes it up to 20 aliens now. In motion


Tail swish...


Charge


Odds on the black guys
 
Was up at Boards and Swords the other week, and after playing a fair amount of 'Xenos Rampant', I noticed Rob & Manny had a copy of the "get away from her you B****!" expansion.
Which includes 'enraged' Ripley - i.e. Ripley with Newt, Ripley in Power Loader, Bishop being normal and half a Bishop!
It also included the Alien Queen, Greater Xenomorph anyone!

Power Loader and Queen


Back view, the yellow has worked really well


From above


It's behind you!


Conga line?


Annoyed Ripley and Newt


She's not happy


Tooled up


Back view


Bishop and half-a-Bishop!


He's a bit of a mess!


I can remote pilot the dropship.


Bald patch?


Back off
 
 
And now something really scary (yes, the time it took to assemble them)


They're in the walls...




Oh heck!




They come at night, mostly

 One of those 'I'll never use it but I need it' purchases. Huge fan of Aliens, and I've been eyeing up the Marines set that very sensibly they sell separate from the new Aliens board game. Saying that, I did use them on Wednesday when Cliff at the LB club brought his first edition copy of 'Space Hulk' down and we played it properly!

The heroes of Hadley's Hope


Apone, Hicks and Deitrich


'Eat this!'


Bases come pre sculpted with names too


Weisbowski, Crowe, Hudson and Frost


Team of ultimate badarses!


The camo nearly sent me blind!


Vasquez and Drake


Love the animation on these two


Drake was a nightmare to assemble, all the rest were a dream


Gorman and Burke


One a man out of his depth, the other a nasty little toad


Newt and Ripley


Newt's sculpt is soooo cute


And here they are in action on Wednesday, Three of us played 4 games, it was hilarious!

Warhammer Old World - Goblins vs Empire, Batlle of The Hilly Hill

"Oi, where's the rest of the army?" Stumpy Jason turned round to the musician Thumpy Jason. "We's only playing 1000 points!" "Oh right. But why are there more Empire 'ooomans than us then?" the Goblin Wolfrider capatin pondered. Mort and I met up for a game of Warhammer Old World. I chose my Goblins, with only 1000 points. This led to me taking a unit of spears, with the army standard, a unit of archers, a spear chucker and some wolf riders. A level 1 mage, my general on a giant squig and Stumpy Jason rounded out my selection. I was tooled up with magic standards and characters, so half my points were tied up in characters. Mort had two units of mounted pistolliers, a spear unit, two detachments , one of handgunners, one of halbardiers, and a small unit of knights. Two characters were embedded in his spears and one pistolliers, and a mage strode forwards with the halbardiers. My wolves and general went left, archers, spears, bolt chucker and...

Mortal Gods - Three Sided scrap - finding the treasure.

Typhon woke up, his head was banging, and there would definitely be a new scar on hi sarm... "Nice to see you can take a knock too!" Leandros looked over at the archer. Polykratos sat on a nearby boulder, helmet and shield at his feet, sword bloodied, he was smiling at his two fellow fighters. "Nice to see you two sleepy heads. By the way, we won! Spartans and Etruscans all sent packing, treasures secrured!" Dave, David and I met up for a game of Mortal Gods. Mark was meant to be joining us, but he had to call off. This is only a quick report, as we were haing too much of a laugh! Six objecties were scattered across the field, which you have to find and hold until the end of turn 5. One would go live on a roll of '6', if an action was expended on it. The others then are empty. Three sides means two corners and an edge. 450 points each. I was nearest, Dave the other corned, David the opposite edge.My standard warband took to the field, with their eyes firmly...
