Workspace and display...

Starcraft II aside, I'm getting back into the swing of things as far as tabletop gaming and 'hobbying' goes. So much so that I realize I'm woefully lacking in the storage and display space categories.
Well, I have a good bit of storage available, but as with any of the gamers I know, my storage capacity is outweighed by my volume of models. "My cup runneth over" so to speak.
So I'm thinking wall shelving. Something along the lines of the single plank, multiple bracket variety. Something that will allow me to place everything I'm working on out where I can see it while keeping it up out of the way as well.


My next project then is to swing by home depot and pick up some shelf parts. We'll see how that turns out...

I am a tabletop wargamer

Notice the title is wargamer, not painter or hobbyist. That's honestly how I see myself. I'm a gamer. I love to learn new systems and I'm a big fan of plunking some minis down on a table and rolling some dice. The odd caveat to that is, I don't consider it a miniature wargame unless you have to assemble/paint the minis. Strange I know, but who said I had to make any sense? Especially on my own blog. =P

Doubles

The main attraction Casey and I felt for WARGamesCon was the doubles tourney.
She and I have played a few team games with friends locally and had a blast.
So logically, we assumed (and rightly so) that a tournament based around team gaming would be a great way to spend a day.

Back to the grind...

So, Casey and I returned home safe and sound from WARGamesCon and even got some 8th ed fantasy gaming in on Sunday.
Played in the 40k Doubles Tourney Friday.

So... No needles pulling thread here.

Today's post brings about 2 things:
1.) A tourney/con attendance announcement
2.) An experiment in progress.
Hopefully both will aid in the expansion of creativity, and further my mini-wargaming Hobbyness.
