Thanks for the Great Tournaments

Thanks for the Great Tournaments

Jonny and I on behalf of Zlurpcast would like to thank all the people that put together tournaments in the US in 2011.  Without you we wouldn’t have the fun events to go to, and would have a lot less to talk about on the podcast.  Here is the list of people everyone that attends [...]

Part 2 “the Other team”

Part 2 “the Other team”

Progress has been going a lot slower then I need it to.  I’m sure there are some other gamers out there that can understand this but i’ve lost focus on this team, and feel the deadline creeping up on me very quickly.  I really hope this doesn’t turn into a mad rush to get the [...]

Scott Sigler

Scott Sigler

This is not an advertisement we are getting nothing from this.
As i’ve mentioned a couple times now on the podcast i’m a big fan of Scott Sigler, particularly his GFL series.  If I had to briefly describe it to a bloodbowl crowd I would say it’s Sci-Fi Bloodbowl well written and entertaining, but more real football rules [...]

Part 1: The Building of the ‘Other’ Team

Part 1: The Building of the ‘Other’ Team

As Jonny teased in the Zlurpnation email and i’m sure we have talked about everywhere on the net.  We are both starting new teams with intentions of having them done for the same tournament.  So we thought we would do a series of blog posts talking about the teams, everything from theme to models and [...]

Fantasy Flight Games

So the Bloodbowl game is going to be released soon, and I imagine there will be a lot of people ordering it.
Thought I would throw out a suggestion to add to your order.
I demoed this game at GenCon and had a blast,

I’ve thought of it many times since GenCon and really regret not buying it. [...]

Going to try to talk to someone [...]

Why it’s okay to hate GW

Why it’s okay to hate GW

So GW makes itself a very easy target with some of their business decisions.  Often when someone starts bitching about the latest nitemare GW has caused there is usually one guy that jumps in with “Well they created these games didn’t they they must not be that bad”, or “Just quit playing then”.
I think a [...]

All your Base…

All your Base…

Public service Announcement.
Basing your models is an important area that some very good painters often over look.  A bad base on a model can really take away from the overall look of the model, and at times it can be so bad that what would be a very good paint job can be easily overlooked [...]
