Oh dear, I seem to have become slightly addicted to the Star Wars Miniatures Game by Wizards of the Coast. I was going to have a night off gaming this evening as Seth couldn't make it, Nicole was feeling a bit poorly and I had a shitload of work to do but decided to go ahead with it anyway as Dom was about to leave when I finally got through to him (turn your phone on boy! :p).
Anyway, we decided on giving the Star Wars Miniature game a whirl and, er, really enjoyed it.
So now along with Heroclix I'm going to be seeing even more little painted figures laying round the place! Joy! :|
Actually, quite pleased it was good fun. Will probably be running demos of it at the end of October in the store and am thinking about starting up a WOTC League for it if there's enough interest. Also talking about doing Heroclix League/Tournament type affair too with WizKids atm.
So, any of you more London based readers fancy joining in either Star Wars or Heroclix figure action onb about a monthly basis?

Low budget but sometimes AWESOME.
'For the Love of the film' is a genuine delight (Lucas himself said its his fave- easy to see why) and 'Star Wars:Revelations' is an awesome 45 minute spectacular that links the first three movies with the classic three movies, has SPFX and a storyline that matches anything in the movies themselves... has occasional dialogue and acting that can be as ropey as the actual films themselves... and more importantly was made by a guy, his wife and some friends, mostly at home.
Lightsaber duels, cantina's, a couple of star ship battles (the sic TiE fighters chasing down a smugglers ship in a space dock is cool); roguish smugglers; Darth Vader... it's got the lot!
Spot the addict!
