Since I only have the funds for one bag it'll be either the Infinity bag and me buying a few custom trays for Sedition Wars or the other way round. <br /><br />A question to people who own metal Sedition Wars miniatures. Would you say there size is significantly larger than Infinity miniatures?Aeria_Glorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809554922625492683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-50468818037729226282012-06-27T15:42:44.405+01:002012-06-27T15:42:44.405+01:00Bah, that explains alot..

There's advantages and disadvantages both to being an online or an offline app. So there's stuff that I can do more easily than Barracks could and stuff they can do more easily than I can.<br /><br />Card creation on your iPAD or trivial sharing of cards are some online benefits :) Not going away because I get hit by a bus tomorrow are offline app benefits!<br /><br />BTW, thanks a lot for linking to the Grunt'o'Matic :)Quozlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122600666719494075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-67035722540594091362012-06-27T12:43:56.838+01:002012-06-27T12:43:56.838+01:00Maybe so Quozl, I have to be honest if I'd kno...Maybe so Quozl, I have to be honest if I'd known about your army builder I'd never have pledged to Barracks.

I didn't want to risk having a negative impact on it.<br /><br />So, I really don't think it had an influence on Barracks funding levels.Quozlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122600666719494075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-7553814304229701022012-06-27T12:00:13.355+01:002012-06-27T12:00:13.355+01:00Yeah well ordering Battlefoam here in the UK is a ...Yeah well ordering Battlefoam here in the UK is a pain in the ass too, despite Battlefoam UK.

It looks like the basic bag is the same as the Infinity Alpha one to me, so I'll probably either buy the custom foam later or the full bag if I'm wrong. Need money for the shiny first!<br /><br />Too bad about customs though.. Or I'd cancel the Infinity bag I ordered from Wayland as this one will probably ship sooner..<br /><br />I'm looking forward to the end of the campaign as well to see where they end :) Some people were talking about 1 mil+ but I doubt it'll get that crazy.Aeria_Glorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809554922625492683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-61913145690611707002012-06-27T04:15:11.483+01:002012-06-27T04:15:11.483+01:00At this point I've already rented a storage un...At this point I've already rented a storage unit just for sedition wars minis.

If it helps, right now were I reviewing the current (and I believe) final set of rules it'd most likely be an 8 out of 10, which is a good solid game.
