Game Knight new location

I also popped into the new location of Game Knight, a local game store. They have a much bigger place. It looks really nice. I was looking for expansions for the Firefly board game (which they no longer had) and ended up picking up some figures while I was there.
They had a lot of the Reaper Bones figures. I picked up a dumpster, 5 western figures, and 3 other figures. The dumpster is for scenery for Batman miniatures / Universe / Last Days.

The western figures are for RWNN and Dracula’s America.

The three other figures caught my eye and looked like they would be fun to paint.

I also picked up some 30mm and 40mm bases for some proxy Universe figures. I picked up a 2” base in the hopes that it would be close to a 60mm bases but it is too small.

The Reaper figures don’t come with bases. I almost picked up 25 1” GW-type bases for $5 but decided not to.
I’ll have to go back and get them.

Birds of Prey

I also took some of the money that I was saving for Burning of Prospero and made another miniature order. I picked up some more Batman Miniatures/DC Universe figures. I bought the Birds of Prey and the Enchantress.

The Birds of Prey were a repacking of the older metal figures for Black Canary, Hawkgirl, and the Huntress. These came with DC Universe cards on one side and Batman Miniature Game cards on the other. The first two had cards in the rulebook but this is the first time for the Huntress for DC Universe.

The Enchantress is one of the new resin figures. Since I already had the Suicide Squad set, I figured that I should probably pick her up to complete it. Plus she is one of the magic users for the new magic rules of the second edition.

The figures were complete, which is often a worry with Knight Models (although I haven’t had too much trouble). They are lovely figures but the sculpts are tiny and the joins are very small and fiddly.

Osprey Wargame Series

I’ve picked up a few more books from Osprey. They have been doing a Wargame series with small rules for skirmish games. They also numbered the books, so I feel compelled to get them all. Some are quite good. I do hope to be able to give a bunch of them a try. With the extra Heroclix and Arcane Legions sets, I should have enough figures to try out a bunch of them.
I just picked up Broken Legions – skirmish rules for Roman warbands, and Poseidon’s Warriors – ancients ship battles. They both look pretty good.

Their newest hardcover set thought is Last Days Zombie Apocalypse. It is by Ash Baker from Guerilla Miniature Games, which is a youtube channel I found when looking for playthroughs of the Batman Miniature game. He’s from Ontario and used to work for Game’s Workshop. He seems to have a pretty good attitude about games and is fun to watch.
His game looks like it will be good to try. I will see if I can get it to the table sooner rather than later.
