Re: Best way to remove old paint?
Simple Green works very well. Let a mini soak in it for a day (less if you get the concentrated stuff and you're stripping plastic), then scrub with a toothbrush.

Re: Great Eagle alternative models
A Sky Sloop is a 9th Age unit and doesn't have a official GW model, right? Is there a reason the Skycutter model can't be used? Also, should it be an eagle model or would a different creature work? Gamezone makes alternative eagles as does Reaper. The ones from Gamezone look more like they may be pu...

Re: Alternative minitures-a near and dear subject (some imag
I really like that dragon! Their price is reasonable, if a bit high. Similar to what I've spent on a forgeworld dragon. If I didn't already have half a dozen unpainted dragons I'd consider it. I also wish it was from a company I'd purchased from before, but what are you going to do? At least Kicksta...

Re: List of alternative models for Warhammer Fantasy
Mierce is a company I don't buy from. They have this whole weird bankruptcy history as Maelstrom where they hosed their creditors and customers. Mierce was spun off and purchased by the owner of Maelstrom for a steal as his other company went under. It's fun to see my old alternative minis thread re...

Re: an unfortunate warning...
I doubt that Asurion Whitestar is scamming people. He has had a long tenure on this forum and many other successful trades. However, he hasn't made a new post since late March. It seems you might be out of luck, but if it's any consolation, I don't think it was out of malice.

That's pretty cool! They're effectively a guy (or maybe more) who does commissions for conversions, but that's selling them short. I really recommend that everybody look at the Ogre Stronghold link. Just looking at the high elf gallery doesn't do the company justice. The Nippon "Mournfang Caval...

Re: Suggestions Please: building a better Scene at a hobby s
You could modify the old rules for Warbands. They allowed for a unit champion to be the general, for undersized units to be used (say 4 archers), and other modifications that allow for small games. You start with a certain point level, say 100 points, then each week or two you add to it. The goal is...

I've also received a package notification from my post office that I have a package waiting I won't be back in town for another week yet though, so it will have to sit there a while.

First I tend to choose what I want for my Lord choice. If I'm going to take a dragon, that obviously dictates my list design. If not, the question becomes what your magic is intended to do.
