GYFTOOMF: Army Lists

Originally posted 28th September 2010

I've updated some of the army lists for Get Your Frickin' Tentacle Out Of My Face (the sci-fi variant of IABSM) to take into account new releases from Khurasan Miniatures. These include two ridiculously superheavy vehicles for the Garn (the tank variant is shown below) and the Myzontid Ranger infantry for the Pelagic Dominate (the standard infantry grouping also shown below).

I haven't had a chance to do much gaming in the last month or so:  holidays, work, real life etc! I have, however, been able to do a little painting: here are the first pictures of the Protolene Khanate, Critical Mass Games' excellent range of dog-headed sci-fi infantry and walkers. 

To give you some idea of how large the medium walkers are, the infantry below are mounted on 20p plastic tokens, the medium walkers on large FOW bases...

Can't wait to try them out on the table!

I've updated all the army lists for Get Your Frickin' Tentacle Out Of My Face (the sci-fi variant of IABSM) to take into account new releases, extra information, and to make the initiative dice for each type of infantry more consistent.

Charlie Don't Surf published!

Originally posted 31st May 2010

For all those who game the Vietnam war, or who have wanted to but never found a set of rules you liked, I am very pleased to announce the release of the latest TFL ruleset: Charlie Don't Surf.

Available from the TFL website, along with Surf's Up a companion book of scenarios, I cannot recommend this ruleset highly enough. Not only does it incorporate all the latest TFL game mechanics and tweaks destined for IABSM v3, but it totally and 100% captures the feel of the period. So di di mau to the TFL website and get yourself a copy of this Number Ten Thousand ruleset!

I've added details for Zombiesmith's beautifully realised quasi-WW1 alien race: the Quar. Highly recommended figures for those who play either GYFTOOMF or even M&B.
