Re: Possible Shinycon '19
In twenty years time Purps will be a drooling idiot like the rest of us - he won't remember what happened to him.
Why us? Cos we're 'ere lad, nobody else.

Technically, heretics and unbelievers are separate categories, so you can do both - you just have to select the right target.

Having said "probably not" I have been looking at shinies and now I am "if I possibly can". I'll get some stuff painted up but it will be dependent upon location and my job situation (on a rolling short-term contract at the moment so things could go belly up quite quickly).

I ask to be excused on the grounds of diminished responsibility and finding Shiny 42mm to be at the bottom of my bucket list.
Although possibly Jeremy and I can run a simultaneous Mattcon

I get lockdown, but I get up again.

Definitely! Just not in 42mm!

I know I will regret the question but...
...what size and shape basing is everyone using?
I may have bought a few FPW Prussians and I need to know which bucket of MDF bases I need dig out.

Basing doesn’t really matter Zen. I’m using 20x25 single bases for my foot and 25x60 for mounted. The bases are really only needed to give stability - they don’t play any part in the rules

And EB is using a system which he will discontinue before they get to the table and rebase in a flurry the week before the game in a system that no one else uses.
