Sorry for the silence in the last few months, but I promise it has been with good reason!<br />
<br />
I have decided to launch a line of supers minis later this year through <b>Kitbash Games</b>!<br />
<br />

<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-c2ulP0tRzTM/WIzaxeAQDpI/AAAAAAAAFwo/4y-bP2Mo-DQRyzbMHVopMuVppb9b4JJrQCLcB/s1600/Feartigo%2B1.1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-c2ulP0tRzTM/WIzaxeAQDpI/AAAAAAAAFwo/4y-bP2Mo-DQRyzbMHVopMuVppb9b4JJrQCLcB/s320/Feartigo%2B1.1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<b>Feartigo</b> is my second <i>Pulp City</i> mini of the year, making for a better start than 2016 (although I had a very good February).<br />
<br />
I got inspired to do him when I saw someone else had painted theirs up, helping motivate me. As I had a few days off work (a lot spent assembling terrain), I felt confident I would get him finished without him falling into 'painting queue limbo', and thankfully that proved accurate. With all the browns he was going to have I thought the purple/magenta trousers would make a nice counterpoint while sticking with my colour vocabulary for <i>Villains</i>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0rn8Y2NPZn4/WIzbEK2klTI/AAAAAAAAFww/JBYgmwY7QykQ_hWZX1RjmZao0unCMYu0ACLcB/s1600/Feartigo%2B1.2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="289" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0rn8Y2NPZn4/WIzbEK2klTI/AAAAAAAAFww/JBYgmwY7QykQ_hWZX1RjmZao0unCMYu0ACLcB/s320/Feartigo%2B1.2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
In terms of game-play, <b>Feartigo</b> straddles two Factions, as a <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Necroplane">Necroplane</a></i> agent who has infiltrated the <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Coven">Coven</a></i> ranks through subterfuge, secretly serving <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/dr-tenebrous.html">Dr. Tenebrous</a></b>, but whose loyalties may be uncertain for either side. Painting him adds my first new <i>Coven</i> in fifteen months, and my first new <i>Necroplane</i> in three and half years! At least one of those Teams needs to make it to the table this year I think.<br />
<br />
<b>Feartigo</b> is a <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Blaster">Blaster</a> </i>with added durability, whose Actions all work against Spirit (ideal against <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/ARC">A.R.C.</a></i> or <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Heavy%20Metal">Heavy Metal</a></i>). His added durablity is due to the fact that he has two defensive Trumps, adds +1 die to Defend when Attacked out of Base to Base, and because he also Damages Attackers who Damage him with Mind or Spirit Actions. Basically, as an overall package he can be a nasty surprise for an unwary opponent, especially as his main Attack will typically generate 4 dice against Living Targets.<br />

<b>Grimm Lee Chan</b> is my first painted <i>Pulp City</i> mini of 2017, and that means I am happy to have made a start right at the beginning of the year. Even better is the fact he has been hanging around the painting queue for a few months and is now done. I actually finished him a week or so ago, but was waiting to be able to spray varnish him.<br />
<br />
The jumpsuit is a colour reversal of the classic Bruce Lee outfit as I am planning to do another model from the range in the classic yellow scheme with black arm stripes.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cAC4oY6SojQ/WInVFUlJ7wI/AAAAAAAAFvg/Drop83MSk3I5rL2vlgd5yrFjnGRbMHTigCLcB/s1600/Grimm%2BLee%2BChan%2B1.2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="301" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cAC4oY6SojQ/WInVFUlJ7wI/AAAAAAAAFvg/Drop83MSk3I5rL2vlgd5yrFjnGRbMHTigCLcB/s320/Grimm%2BLee%2BChan%2B1.2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<b>Grimm Lee Chan</b> is one of the many <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Grimm">Grimm</a></i> available, and a Level 1 Brawler. He can also be used in <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/The%20Way">The Way</a></i> Teams. In <i>The Way</i> he has great synergy with <b>White Tiger</b> as she boosts his basic Attack die pool to 3 dice, which can help trigger his Power that allows reduced cost Follow Up Attacks. The Attack that this works on is Grimm Chucks which has an impressive Damage 2 as basic Effect (FX), itself pretty unusual for a Level 1 <a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Supremes">Supreme</a>.<br />
<br />
Not sure what will be painted next. Maybe <b>Feartigo</b>, although I have my eye on <b>Scarab</b> too, but really I should get <b>White Tiger</b> and/or <b>Grimmsham </b>done as soon as possible for their respective Factions, so time will tell!<br />
<br />

The first 'welcome to the blog' post in a while, this time to greet Mark Kitching. Thanks for signing on as a blog follower Mark, and once again, thank you to everyone who checks in.<br />
<br />
Last year was a big improvement on my <i>Pulp City</i> painting output so that was very pleasing.<br />
<br />
Late 2016 also finally saw the resumption of regular releases following delivery of the second <i>Kickstarter</i>.<br />
<br />
Going forward we have plenty of new <i>Supremes</i> lined up and some very cool developments for the game which will be very positive for the game when things finally click into place. We have had a few hurdles to clear, but we are working our way through them we hope, so stay tuned!pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-44141061848398532282017-01-01T04:24:00.000-08:002017-01-01T04:24:02.008-08:00My Pulp City Painting 2016<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Another year is over, and my personal painted <i>Pulp City</i> collection has grown! I set myself a target of 12 minis for the year and managed 22, my best output for <i>Pulp City</i> since 2010!<br />
<br />
Even then, I had hoped to finish one or two more, so hopefully that will translate into momentum for 2017.<br />
<br />
With this year's output I am past 150 painted <i>Pulp City</i> minis in the collection, so I really should make an effort to do a 'whole collection' picture before too long, but I have been saying that for a while as it takes a long time to set up!<br />
<br />
In 2017 I hope to finish off the <i>Forgotten</i> and make good headway with both <i>Supreme Alliance</i> and <i>Red Republik</i>, but we shall see where my meandering attention takes me!pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-34750797103889341412016-12-24T06:47:00.000-08:002016-12-24T06:48:11.405-08:00Merry Christmas<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Robo-Chimp</b> is my 22nd painted<i> Pulp City</i> mini of the year, and continued my <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Minions">Minion</a></i> focus. I had a bit of a struggle, possibly because I think I started it around the time when a painting slump hit, but I finally finished it this weekend in a determination to clear something out of the dread painting queue.<br />
<br />
The painting is not my best, but it will suffice since I am far from a perfectionist when it comes to slapping minis with the hairy sticks. Finishing <b>Robo-Chimp</b> gives me 14 Levels of painted <i>Minions</i> this year, which has been pretty cool on a personal level to be honest, so no doubt will see some more varied choices whenever I get around to any future Battle Reports. I have a few more part-painted <i>Pulp City</i> minis so I hope to keep some momentum into the start of 2017, even as new releases continue.<br />

An <i><a href="http://a.r.c./">A.R.C.</a>-</i>specific <i>Minion</i>, in game terms, <b>Robo-Chimp</b> typically offers a decent 3-dice pool for its Monkey Rockets Attacks which have Blast 2 as part of their FX. The Action does not deal any EFX (Extra Effects), but can be an effective way of peppering a few models with Damage 1 - try and pick out the lowest Agility Trait in a group of models if possible. In addition, <b>Robo-Chimp</b> also usually rolls 3 dice when defending, which combined with its 3 HP means it can potentially surprise your opponent by sticking around in the face of low to moderate Attacks.<br />

<b>Bramble</b> is one of the first <i>Supreme Genesis</i> characters that we have gained capacity to create through running <i>Kickstarter</i> campaigns for <i>Pulp City</i>. She was also a mini I was very much looking forward to tackling as a change of pace from a lot of recent stuff I have finished, especially in terms of colour palette. It has also meant my painting this month has been exclusively for my own <i>Pulp City</i> collection and it has been a long while since I last did that.<br />
<br />
I went for a super-simple colour scheme featuring browns and greens for obvious reasons. Once I had laid down base colours I was unable to paint for a couple of weeks, which maybe helped me when it came to finishing her off as I was able to do the main work quite quickly in the end, maybe with fresh eyes.<br />
<br />

In game terms <b>Bramble</b> is an <i>Infiltrator</i> affiliated with <i>Settler's Green</i>, and is also a <i>Freelancer</i>. That makes <b>Dead Eye</b> and <b>Dark Solar</b> ideal <i>Leader</i> options for her Team. Her Actions give ranged threat as well as some board control, and I think she will offer some interesting options and surprises for players as they get to grips with her. Hopefully we will be able to add more <i>Supremes</i> to <i>Settler's Green</i> before too long.<br />

My first <i>Pulp City</i> minis for a while, and back to the <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Minions">Minion</a></i> focus I have had this year. I have been struggling for painting motivation in general in the last few weeks, so needed a 'quick win', which the <b>Cyber Dogs</b> were perfect for.<br />
<br />
We were able to produce the <b>Cyber Dogs</b> due to the great success of the <i>Cold War Kickstarter</i>, and they have a neat rule function in that each <b>Dog</b> brings a separate boost which affects the whole game card of <i>Minions</i>, which can be bought as 2, 4 or 6 Levels (1, 2 or 3 models).<br />

I went for a quick and done approach simply to regain some momentum as mentioned, and I hope it brings me back to some more regular painting. I still hope to finish at least a couple more <i>Pulp City</i> minis before year end, but even if I don't, it has been a much better year after the previous two years' outputs. This also takes past 150 painted <i>Pulp City</i> minis, so high time I did another 'all my painted collection' post!pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-76199374915929257762016-11-27T10:27:00.000-08:002016-11-27T10:27:01.036-08:00Pulp City New Releases<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Want new releases? <i>Pulp City</i> has got 'em! <br />
<br />
New <a href="http://newstore.pulp-city.com/">in store</a> this week are a new sculpt for <b><a href="http://newstore.pulp-city.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=205">Androida</a></b> and the <i>Supreme Genesis</i> character called <a href="http://newstore.pulp-city.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=206"><b>Dr. Warlock</b></a><b>. </b>We are really happy to finally resume what will be regular releases for the range, starting with these two great <i>Supremes.</i><br />
<br />
First up is <b><a href="http://newstore.pulp-city.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=205">Androida (new)</a></b> – an updated version of the classic Supreme Hero. Androida was one of the first models sculpted for the <i>Pulp City</i> range, and we are very pleased to be able to give her a new sculpt. Coupled with her new sculpt, <b>Androida's </b>storyline continues to evolve, and the new mini comes with upgraded rules making her a Level 2 <i>Supreme</i> and the first character with the new Field Commander Power (think <i>Leader</i>-lite).<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://newstore.pulp-city.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=206">Dr. Warlock</a></b> joins Androida as the second of our new releases this month. <b>Dr. Warlock</b> is one of the <i>Supreme Genesis</i> characters which were created thanks to our first Kickstarter. Thought-up by the inimitable Drew Wood, this incarnation of his character has inherited mysterious power which he is using to protect <i>Pulp City</i> in its time of need.pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-57232298476972330722016-08-29T12:26:00.000-07:002016-08-29T12:26:31.353-07:00Ankle Biters (Minions)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Ankle Biters</b> done! I tackled these now as I was starting to lose some motivation and momentum on the <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Citizens">Citizens</a></b>, so I needed to finish something different to keep myself going. Thankfully the <b>Ankle Biters</b> offered a pretty quick turnaround. On another plus side, painting them is in line with <a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2016/05/hovercats-minions.html">my intention to paint more <i>Minions</i> this year</a>.<br />
<br />
I kept the painting scheme pretty simple as the most important thing for me was simply finishing 'something'. That helped them get finished fairly quickly and my renewed motivation has extended to prepping some more minis (Including <b>Voicelings</b>!), which was a nice bonus. These two are my 146th and 147th painted <i>Pulp City</i> minis, taking me a step closer to the 'magic 150'.<br />
<br />

<b>Ankle Biters</b> have been appearing in increasing numbers on the streets of <i>Pulp City</i>, and many assume <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2010/04/mysterious-man.html">Mysterious Man</a></b> is responsible for their creation, but rumour has it that he now has a rival in his field.<br />
<br />
In game terms <b>Ankle Biters</b> are nice simple Level 1 <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Brawler">Brawler</a> <a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Minions">Minions</a></i>. They are best used in tandem, ganging up on a single opposing model, preferably with added Momentum bonus (they can each roll 3 to 4 dice then if attacking the same model). If you can trigger an EFX, they become especially dangerous as one of their EFX options is Fatigue, meaning these lowly Minions can potentially lock even a mighty Supreme in place.<br />

I am long overdue painting up some <b>Citizens</b>, having in the past relied on acrylic token stand-ins - (which are great, but aren't painted minis!).<br />
<br />
I have also been in danger of losing painting momentum recently, (that may not be apparent to readers, I am just in one of those phases of finding painting 'hard to do' at times), so a quick win was always going to be a good motivator, which is why I decided to start with the <b>Pets</b>.<br />
<br />
In-game, <b>Citizens</b> are used for Agendas, and there a variety of scoring conditions which can be selected from. They are nice a simple to use and manage during games, so are well worth a try.pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-66264079112082631752016-08-20T05:57:00.000-07:002016-08-20T05:57:42.541-07:00Welcome<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Another 'welcome to the Pulp Citizen blog' post, this time greeting Sander van Straeten, a name familiar to me from certain minis groups. Thanks for Following the blog Sander. :)<br />
<br />
On the hobby front I have been too tired for painting this week, but have been assembling and undercoating a few minis: <b>White Tiger, Feartigo </b>and two <b>Ankle Biters</b>. Hopefully i will manage to do some painting before the weekend is concluded. :)pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-90323403510421509662016-08-16T13:37:00.003-07:002016-08-16T13:37:36.352-07:00100 Voices<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My summer of <i>Pulp City</i> painting continues! <b>100 Voices</b> proved somewhat of a surprise on the painting front, as I had no plans a week earlier to tackle him! (even though I have loved this mini from the moment James showed us the WiP pictures). I had been prepping a big batch of minis across a few ranges to get ready for later painting and opted to include him. Then I decided to do his base blue colour, and well, he ended up getting finished over a couple of quick sessions in one day which was very pleasing. It was a pleasingly straightforward painting job.<br />
<br />
<b>100 Voices</b> is Eric Hanson, a former crooked but successful lawyer who had a sideline as a vicious serial killer, brought to justice by <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2010/05/dead-eye.html">Dead Eye</a></b>. Empowered by the dark whispers which constantly surround him, he ha been remade as <b>100 Voices</b>.<br />
<br />

In game terms <b>100 Voices</b> is a <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Leader">Leader</a></i>, essentially building <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Villain">Villain</a> Teams</i> of <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Supremes">Supremes</a></i> lacking <i>Faction</i> affiliation. Consequently he is something of an alternative to <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2010/04/mysterious-man.html">Mysterious Man</a></b>. Unlike some <i>Leaders</i>, <b>100 Voices</b> is not a heavy Damage dealer. Instead he brings disruption to his foes though Mind Control and some very effective de-buff Actions, and forcing models to rely on Spirit against him, often a weaker Trait.<br />
<br />
Having painted <b>100 Voices</b>, I really need and want to paint the <b>Voicelings</b> to go with him very soon.<br />
<br />
I am really happy to have finished <b>100 Voices</b>, and have recently finished the pets from the <b>Citizens</b> pack too (look for them soon), so I hope to get most of the <b>Citizens</b> family done this month too - watch this space. 100 Voices is my 143rd Pulp City mini, and if I do finish the <b>Citizens</b> soon that will leave just one mini short of the big 150....<br />

This my first 'welcome to the blog' type post for a while. This time it is for Michał Kucharski, author of the <a href="http://dwarfcrypt.blogspot.co.uk/">Dwarfcrypt</a> blog <a href="http://dwarfcrypt.blogspot.co.uk/">(click for link)</a>. Go check out his blog - can we hope to see some Pulp City on there eventually Michał?<br />
<br />
On my own hobby front, I managed to pretty much complete another <i>Supreme</i> over the weekend (basing, varnishing and final touch-ups to finish it off), as well as doing most of the painting for a couple of very easy to paint <i>Pulp City</i> minis, so expect some blog posts for those starting in the next few days.pulpcitizenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10827978428130531133noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329857320140034083.post-36022669701662380082016-07-29T04:00:00.002-07:002016-07-29T04:00:21.155-07:00Phalanx<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bJ0tbCQrgdA/V5s2Lms33zI/AAAAAAAAFis/QKFsX9nbsjITi4eg3_Neob_7g2eOzMA-gCLcB/s1600/Phalanx%2B1.1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bJ0tbCQrgdA/V5s2Lms33zI/AAAAAAAAFis/QKFsX9nbsjITi4eg3_Neob_7g2eOzMA-gCLcB/s320/Phalanx%2B1.1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<b>Phalanx</b> is my third <i>Pulp City</i> <i>Supreme</i> this month (yay!), and finishing him means I have hit my planned goal for the year (more yay!) with a few months to go. Painting <b>Phalanx </b>also takes me to 142 painted <i>Pulp City</i> minis, which leaves me just 8 more short of the next milestone achievement of 150 painted minis from the range. I will probably have to commit to a big picture of them all when I get to that stage (I did something similar when I went past 100 a few years back).<br />
<br />
<b>Phalanx</b> is a member of the <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Forgotten">Forgotten</a></i>, forged by <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2010/03/hellsmith.html">Hellsmith</a></b> to lead the <b>Mecha Spartans. If his body is ever destroyed, </b>he is reborn into a <b>Mecha Spartan</b> shell, transforming it into his traditional form.<br />
<br />
In game terms <b>Phalanx</b> is a typical <i>Forgotten,</i> on a 40 mm base as most of them are. He is tough and hard-hitting despite being a <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Support">Support</a> <a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Supremes">Supreme</a></i>, and with cheap (Level 1) <b>Mecha Spartans</b> around, you can keep him in the game a long time.<br />
<br />

I cleaned up and prepared <b>Phalanx</b> at the same time as <b><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/2016/07/cro-mag.html">Cro Mag</a></b>. The painting on this one was super quick by my standards, started and finished on the same day, with a simple palette and use of washes, a bit of dry-brushing and simple highlights. That said, I am pretty pleased with how he turned out despite the fast turnaround. Not sure what my next <i>Pulp City</i> painting will be, although I want to get <b>TINY!</b> and <b>Grimmsham</b> done as soon as I can, and maybe <b>White Tiger</b> and <b>100 Voices</b> too. If I get 3 more minis painted fro the range before the end of the year, then I will have exceeded my 2014 and 2015 combined output.<br />

<b>Cro Mag </b>smash!<br />
<br />
<b>Cro Mag </b>kind of jumped my 'planned painting queue' for <i>Pulp City</i>, and I am glad he did and that I how have him finished! <b>Cro Mag</b> is big, have no doubt, roughly 3 inches to the top of his head piece from the bottom of his base (that base is 50 mm across!). It is always satisfying to be able to put a big guy <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Powerhouse">Powerhouse</a></i> on the table, and I needed more <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/">Villain</a></i> <i>Powerhouse </i>options painted, so <b>Cro Mag</b> was a perfect option. More importantly, painting <b>Cro Mag</b> leaves me just 1 mini short of the target I set for my own <i>Pulp City</i> painting at the start of the year. The pictures have washed out the highlights a little, but I am happy with the overall outcome (although his left heel needs a touch up).<br />
<br />
<b>Cro Mag </b>is prehistoric man come to superhuman life in contemporary <i>Pulp City</i>, a rampaging creature often working for <b>Mysterious Man</b>. Even by <i>Powerhouse</i> standards, he is far from bright, and is pretty much all in all a destructive force of nature.<br />

<i>Powerhouses</i> are beasts in combat, they just take a bit of getting used to since they do not supply AP to the Pool, and because you want to get the best out of their Power Up dice. Two <i>Powerhouses</i> going toe-to-toe with plenty of Objects to Manipulate (either Throw or Smash with) is just great fun, and really evokes the spirit of over-the-top battles we wanted to create with these massive <i><a href="http://pulp-citizen.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/All%20Supremes">Supremes</a></i>. <b>Cro Mag </b>is no exception to any of that!<br />
<br />
The mini comes in just two parts and is cast in resin, making it very simple to prepare and assemble, and easy to game with. For his colour scheme I generally followed the brown fur/blue skin of the studio version.<br />
<br />
It is nice to get another 'big mini' done, and I still have a number of <i>Powerhouses</i> to paint (eight in all right now, although I have started on <b>TINY!</b>). Now he is painted, I am hoping <b>Cro Mag </b>makes it to the table before too long, and it also reminds me I need to paint up <b>100 Voices</b> as another <i>Leader</i> option for him!<br />
