Gravitas & Gaming

So after a Christmas break and playing a few games, as well as getting some new ones for Christmas, its back to the blog.

Thanks to my wife a copy of X Wing Minis game was waiting for me in my stocking, along with Conquest of planet earth.
I also got Level 7 escape, Star Wars card game and Flash Point.

X wing is a cool game which comes with X wing and a couple of tie fighters all pre painted minis  (and yes I have already bought the expansions and cant wait for the new ones this year), for some space duelling in the star wars universe, quick to learn and fun to play.

Conquest of Planet Earth has the players as different Alein races trying to conquer the Earth, fun game that can also play solo.

As can Level 7 escape as you awake in a test Lab, you are a test subject andyou must escape, but watch out for the Alien clones and the guards out to get you. It uses Fear and Threat to determine which player the bad guys will attempt to get.

Flash Point is a fun family game of firefighting, can you put out the fire, save the residents before the building collapses or too many residnets die. Easy to learn and fun to play.

Star Wars card game has yet to hit the table.

Last week I got along to Ninth Legion games club in Newton Abbot and played Zombicide, wow what a cool game, lots of Zombies, I mean lots of Zombies out to get you, its a fun Co-op game that really plays well. Pricey but you get some great components.

So curently the artist working on SuperHero Dice: Roll Into Action is colouring the artwork for the first batch of heroes and villian, the artwork is looking nice and will soon be revealed.

I am working on backstory for the characters and am writing the story for the first villian Gravitas.
It is turning into a longer piece then expected and would make a full issue of a comic book.
Hmmm theres an idea.

Yes we have talked about a comic book and maybe a graphic novel of the origins of the World and the characters themselves, watch this space.

Next week I will reveal Gravitas and his backstory.
