Has anyone had a go at Dreamblade? it's ridiculously cheap to get into now and absolutely top gameplay. It's like a surreal version of chess but with your own selection of pieces most of which have unique powers. It's simple to learn and seems quite popular with women probably because it doesn't require reading any rulebooks, a bonus if you are after something you can play with your girlfriend or family. I really rate it as one of the best games I've purchased - I just wondered if anyone else was into it or was thinking of giving it a go? There's a lot of information and an online demo to show you how it works HERE but the demo only shows the very basics. My only criticism is that the plastic on some of the minis is too thin and some need a bit of work to bend them back into shape a bit like the Star Wars minis. |

I have a few Dreamblade minis for other projects. Some of the minis are hard to come by as it is no longer supported by WoTC. |

I only discovered it a couple of days ago when someone was hocking them off on eBay, then of course I had to hunt around to see what it was all about... |

Like Whiskyrat, I picked up some figures. Have no intention of involving myself in a "collectible" game, other than getting conversion fodder cheap.  Examples from other games: http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Big-Terminator-80263508 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Zombie-Ventriloquist-85562036 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Lightish-Red-82773481 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Skullbuster-Repaint-80292795 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Taskmaster-Repaint-80290959 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Android-in-Purple-80169269 Edited by RavenFeast, May 28 2009, 03:49 AM.

Thanks! All you need to do with these is prime over & paint. And the Skullbuster figure has a great minigun that cuts off & swaps so nicely: http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/Mototerminator-123046650 http://ravenfeast.deviantart.com/art/MBF-80172252 |

That Mototerminator is genius! Do the hotwheels bikes scale up nicely with 28mm? |

Thank you! As for compatibility with 28mm:  L to R Mongoose Miniatures Mobile Infantry LAMI Iron Wind Metals VOR Union Trooper East Riding Miniatures Interpol Trooper Hot Wheels Dodge Tomahawk Motorcycle eM4 Miniatures Killer Robot Victory Force Miniatures - JC Figures New Eden Rifleman HeroClix Hellfire Club Guard This is one of the bigger bikes out there - being a Viper engine with a pair of wheels slapped on to either end as an afterthought - so it SHOULD be huge. In general, Hot Wheels motorcycles are a "bring a figure to compare" affair. If you want bikes designed for 28mm then try West Wind Productions Road Kill line - http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=106_107 - also available through Old Glory in the U.S. |

Love the Zombie Ventriloquist Al, and the dialog between A&B  Reminds me of an episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond" when Frank has issues with Timmy, the ventriloquist dummy!!

I have one of those hotwheels bikes...I am trying to sort a rider for it from my box of Westwind bikers. There is big problems bending arms and legs to the right position as the westwind figres are chopper riders and this bike is a crouch up and climb all over it riding position. |
