Drizzt and Wulfgar have exactly the same stats. Drizzt is a new sculpt, Wulfgar a new paintjob.

Not sure about it's stats.

I was just doing an inventory on my Star Wars collection, and I noticed that I seem to be missing my hardboard map from the Revenge of the Sith starter as well as the Cloud City promo map that I picked up from Scott a few months ago.....

Anybody seen these things lying around @ Game Knight? My RotS map has a few little greasy spots on it, in case this rings a bell...

I have a few more places to look, but please let me know if anyone finds these maps. Thanks.

I haven't found a ROTS cardboard map around.  I know there are copies of the cloud city one floating around, but I can't confirm they are mine, extra store copies, or yours.  Ask me next time you're in and we'll take a quick look.

Always tough to get the hours you want when starting a new job. Hopefully you'll be out for SWM Saturday Andy. Someone has to stop Joseph's Ewoks of Doom squad.

So I beat Scott to go in first place.

Brian beats me to go into first place.

Mark beats Brian to go into first place.

All hail Mark at the top of the ladder.

8 people out tonight, not too bad considering those stuck working, with family or pestilence. Mark, Brian, Scott, Paula, Jory, Bram, Garret, and myself. Mark was the big 3-0 earning an Asura for his efforts.

Many, many changes in position tonight. I should be able to post updated standings soon.

Yeah, I had to bump the October Saturday one back because of work scheduling. Not exactly how I'd like them to be spaced but sometimes these things happen.

Actually, it probably isn't. 1183 is likely when Roy and Belkar started adventuring together.

Thanks for the link Mike, I'll see if I can make my Griffon Cavalry fly again. I also need to fix my Werewolf because even though he is shaped like he has melee reach 3, his card claims he doesnt.

"The hot water method works only for repositioning thin elements"

I may need to put those two pieces on a diet before trying to reshape them.

As for league, this is what I played:

Free League Ranger
Greyhawk City Militia Sergeant
Wild Mage
Dire Tiger
Shadow Dancer X2
Wild Elf Warsinger
Changeling Rogue

It should work on the GC without a problem.

Sometime you need to do it a second time to get it right though.

"Champion of the Centaur Commander. Knight of the Gnoll Druid. Vindicated Champion of the Dragon Wrought Kobold!

09/28/2007 9:21 AM  
For all those who weren't in attendance last night, I just want to go on the record to show what kind of luck haunts me:

Last night in my match with MJ, it was going in my favour until I had to make a moral save with the Fire Giant Forge Priest. Using the tyranical moral of the Blackguard, I rolled a "1" and destroyed the forgepriest. Sighhhh.....

Statistically, it's bound to happen eventually. My ForgePriest had a bad habit of failing over 75% of those first moral saves, even though he has a 50/50 chance, and better with some of the other low-level commanders I had been using up until the Blackguard was added. Since adding the Blackguard, I've used the tyrannical moral only twice on the FGFP, as the blackguard usually hangs back out of harms way. So far, tyrannical moral has killed my FGFP 50% of the time.

Sigghhhh.......back to 12th place I go.........
