Vladimir Tzepesci Xp2's feat leaked?

The Khador board is abuzz with a single rumor about legendary Vladimir's feat, and part of his spell list. So apparently, he got Infernal Machine - some find it bewildering that he got a spell originally belonging to Cryx. I find it strange that I never heard Sturm (Watcher), Naaresh/Borka/Barnabas (Iron Flesh), Constance (Transference), Xerxis (Inhospitable Ground) or their respective Factions wondering about these spells. If you read it as "single jack buff with SPD and MAT bonus and Terror", it's easy to be seen. I'm actually grateful it's not another Superiority Caster. Nice change in flavour.

Oh, the feat, I almost forgot:

Fear & Loathing in the 2060's - Shadowrun P&P #02

Here's a quick update since the last post. After my player managed finding the missing person in Prague, they also took a job that led them to New Monaco, and then one where they infiltrated a Royal Dutch Corp. facility bordering the United Netherland's wasteland.

The cast of shadows was:
DaSilva, the Orc Streetsam
Wheelz, the Norm Combat Rigger
Lazarus, the Elf Shaman
Rouge, the Elf Sniper

The Mission assigned to them by (most likely) Mitsuhama: Infiltrate the facility according to plan, grab an important scientist willing to defect, his data, and get out. And things were going smoothly until they reached the scientist, who, however, revealed to them that they were late - the data & stuff had been relocated earlier, he was no longer in charge of the project, and thusly, he wasn't exactly willing to defect anymore. They do manage to convince to leave at any rate, when additional disaster strikes.

Marth & the Machines #61 - Zerkova v. Madrak

This is #61, which I also like to call "the start of season 4", but that's just me. What we'll be doing today is watching Lady Z going up against "Le Brique" under Madrak Ironhide two times, with one of those going significantly better than the other one.

There'll also be some harsh weather effects involved - we're trying them out for the campaign. Enjoy!

Theatre of War Mk II - Campaign Round 1 Redux

I promised "full" coverage over on dicerage.com, but it's not going to be fully "full". Doing each match is tedious work and probably not as thrilling. So therefore, I'll be giving you a redux each round, covering the situation at the start of the round, the orders given, the conflicts ensuing, and their resolution. I'll try to wedge in pictures where possible and present. I'll also give some insight into the ongoing changes to the system and the specials that'll kick in. Enjoy!

Wargaming Mind

Today I got something very interesting from a salesman at work - post-its in brain shape. They were actually doing advertising for a brain-"dysfunctions" prevention medicine, but that's not what stimulated me. It's just that, by looking at this post-it, I got to realize how crammed my brain is with Warmachine.

The knight in coal-stained armour

Enter the Spriggan. It's Khador's most expensive non-Character Warjack. It's like the amalgamation of Knight with lance and shield, his horse, and warjack, all riveted together by pure awesomeness.

Marth & the Machines # 60 - Zerkova v. Nemo

This time, I'm playing - or rather, I was, the pictures are from last octobre, methinks, we're only very slowly catching up here - Zerkova against Arides' most recent (back then) Nemo list. Enjoy!
