They just don't know what's good in life...Conan, tell them what is good in life.
To rip the boosters. To count the minis spilled out before you, and to hear the indifference of the women... | |

| | After looking at all 4 obstacles... I would have liked something a little more then a sign for the minefield. Maybe some small dots of plastic to represnt mines or maybe do a bosing like some of the other minis. It just looks so naked. | |

But that wouldn't be too good either... mines aren't supposed to be seen [:p] I thought of little basing. Tank obstacles look fine, but others need some work or I want to do them from scratch.
They are simple items with fixed effect, so they don't need even cards /actual minis (you can always check the text online if in doubt) | |

| True mines are not to be seen, it just looks so bare.
5 more planes and I'm sure people will be trying hard to get them all. I'm glad I got one of each from Contested Skies. | |

| No, sorry, I can't get behind the idea at all. Mines should be counters, not minis. Worst idea yet.
And the "tank obstacles" aren't. They're anti-landing-craft triangles, not anti-tank.
Don't know what happened to the R&D folks, but they clearly lost their minds at some point in this process. And you can tell it's finally coming home to roost on the WotC pages. The complaint level, hostility, and disappointment is palpable. I stopped posting there.

Vaughan: You seem like a thinker. You seem to always be deep in thought. So what are you thinking right now?
Karl: I'm thinking I could use some more o' that potted meat, if you got any extry.

I can see your point and I'm sure that some other people could be really upset. I think that someone over in R&D feel asleep at the wheel on this one and just made some mistakes. I feel bad that someone at WotC is most likely getting grilled over this as we speak, but people get crazy if things don't look exactly as they want them to. | |

| | I too thought the Mines should be counters and not a mini. I think the same things happening to DDM happened to AAM - Dreamscape drain. | |

So Dreamscape is drainning AAM? As they are seperate parts of the company and I'm not sure how much cross over is taking place... is it fair to blame a game for something? Can't we all just get along? [:)] | |
