Deathworld Jungle: #2 – Refurbished Planimals

PodClixGroup

Horrorclix is a subset of the pre-painted “clix” miniature games which have themselves been doing the rounds for over a decade now.  I picked up a few Horrorclix cheaply on Ebay and gave them a quick zhuzh to rapidly bulk out and add some variety to my ongoing Deathworld/Alien Flora & Fauna project.

In addition to playing a few casual games with old friends, I often try to run a game/tournament of something at Warpcon to keep me busy.  With 2013 being the year of DreadBall at Chateau Sho3box the obvious choice this time was to run a day-long DreadBall tournament. Continue reading
