First the bad news. As my job has dramatically increased my workload, we will not be able to finish the battle table for Cold Wars. There is no way we can finish the table in time. At this rate I will be lucky to be able to go to the con.
So these 2 events are canceled:
F-332 – The Battle of Five Armies
S-356 – The Battle of Five Armies
I apologize if you registered for these events but it is beyond my control. We will continue to build slowly as time allows and hope to have this complete for NJ Con in June. We will also look to put the game on at Fall In 2015. The table is too big to take to Historicon. You try sticking the 3 gamers and the Erebor into a minivan for 6 hours.
Anyway here is the small amount of progress we made,
Our large order of Black Raven Foundry arrived. My friend Lou has already dived into painting this.
Gluing the gate down.
Again lots of test fits and mock builds as we are not 100% certain how to join it all together.
Trying this and that. It's a bit of a juggling act. We have to balance out, what Tolkien wrote, what works for a game, what works for a battle table, and what works for a battle table that needs to fit into a minivan AND go up the stairs out of my basement.
That's it for now, and the near future. We apologize again if you registered for this event.
