Munchkin’d! Munchkin is the classic card game of killing monsters and taking their stuff. The Guild is the hot Web series about a gaming group that puts the FUN in dysFUNctional. (Because otherwise it’d be “dysctional,” and that’s hard to say.) Now they’ve come together in a glorious spew of AWESOME, with the new 15-card booster, Munchkin The Guild! Add Codex, Vork, Clara, Bladezz, Tink, and the mighty Zaboo to your adventures. You may meet some of their foes along the way . . . Munchkin The Guild is designed by Steve Jackson and illustrated by Len “Geek a Week” Peralta.
In the next couple of Days we will have a Figure Forge up showing how to assemble the Blitzer/Mauler/Bomber using rare earth magnets, if it is possible. If not I will pick one and assemble it.
Reaper and Dream Pod 9 have teamed together to bring Heavy Gear fans their very own paint set.

And here is the case.

It has been just over a week since Wil Wheaton aired the first episode of TableTop on Geek and Sundry.
I have spent a lot of my time since I watched it the first time being busy with many things, all the while my thought have been turning, thinking about what and how I want to say it. Let us see if I can do this in 100 words.
When I found out about TableTop I was pretty excited. My mind ran wild with crazy scenes of Celeberties using, plastic chainsaws, and rubber duckies. I really couldn’t wait to see the first episode. Then it came. I watched it and I was happy with it and I am looking forward to the next episode of Tabletop.
In the first episode they (Wil, Grant Imahara, Sean Plott, and Jenna Busch) played a game called Small World by Days of Wonder. It is a Risk style game of conquering in a fantasy setting. The show starts with a game demo, and then moves to introducing the celebrities. Which at first I really didn’t like, now I am torn. After Wil’s demo of Small World I was ready to see the game played. But no he went to introductions. Which is equally important, and after some considerable thought it makes sense that the demo is first. The only other gripe have is that there was no primer for the episode to air on the 20th.
I really liked the way Wil approaches the game and the show. It isn’t about him or Geek and Sundry, it is about demonstrating how to have fun. fun with a group of gamers that have different levels of skill. I rally liked the game demo at the beginning of the show and the between round updates were appreciated. But my favorite part was the trophy. Not so much the trophy, but the engraving process. You will have to watch the show to see it, you just won’t appreciate my words.
TableTop has captured a unique perspective of gamers, that allows gamers to see iconic figures be seen doing reallife things and having fun. Cheers to a job done.
Dream pod 9 has resculpted for the Sidewinder and the Tiger.
The newer versions of the gears feature the ball and socket system, new legs, weapon potions. As an added the bonus the MRP fits on any rocket collar.
The new models will be more posable than their predecessors.
The Tiger can find a home in the Northern, Leaugeuless factions, and Port Arthur Korp. While the Sidewinder serves the South, Leaugless Factions, and Port Arthur Korp.
These models should be available at a LGS (Local Game Shop) in May.
Why, o why must the internets conspire against me?!
Okay, the lamenting may be a bit much. In truth, the fault is mine. I deleted a very important e-mail from Matt, resulting in a series of miscommunications between he and I, and therefore this post is getting up rather late. My most sincere and humble appologies. Nonetheless, here it is, a quick overview of the mechanics of the Silvervine Games system.
