Black Tree certainly doesn't do much to make the figures affordable for overseas players; shipping is a killer. There is a BTD importer in the US but they...
£50 for free shipping worldwide is OK, although at £2.50 a figure thats still only 20 models, which is getting on for GW prices. I tend to bite the bullet...
"I can...keep them for years.." This suggests you have a problem with miniatures dematerialising. Is this so? :) More importantly, have now played enough...
I agree with the Big Man. BTD have a bit of a monopoly, but they at least you get (half) decent models without the conversion overheads. Allegedly, the BTD...
I guess I have been surprised (and inspired) by the amount of people who have taken to the new series and got around to expending a lot of effort converting to...
... Not dematerialising as such, but every morning my Adric miniature is lying face down surrounded by my Cybermen models. I am sure I keep them entirely...
Original scenarios? Sounds brilliant! I look forward to seeing where our imaginations take this! I have a great idea for a Torchwood scenario - cira 1880's...
-I don't know the full details but its possible they are still allowed to manufacture the figs. A friend of mine used to own the rights to the Time machine. He...
I think the market is in a bit of a mess. We have the show back in full swing, buckets of merchandising, and a rapidly growing mini-gamers community... ...and...
I almost entirely agree with what you say, Graeme, even down to being initially quite vocal in my dislike of Love & Monsters but then coming to appreciate it...
I would agree about the current shows being a bit short for gaming material, the recent New York 2 parter had plenty of potential but could have been better,...
Thanks for all of the ideas guys. I'll definitely be using some alternate figures to flesh things out apart from the doctors, daleks and cybermen. That's the...
http://www.saberpunk.net/DoctorWho/DoctorWhoSerialGenerator.php Works as a scenario name generator as well! Some examples it came up with: Talon of Fear The...
There also are many possibilities in the various novels. I know the quality can be widely variable, but there are plenty of new scenario & monster/alien ideas...
... Death' ... Fantastic! Curse of Doom (Well, duh!) The Claws of Menace The Decay Dead The Fangs of Time The Fear Creatures The God The Keepers The Night of...
Could you elaborate on how you use Mythic in your mini games? Do you use the rule set book or game master book? Do you use this to play solo or do you use it...
I just tried Mythic -- it's pretty interesting. Not sure how it would port to a wargame -- are we looking more intelligent random effects / encounters like in...
Hey Chris The conversion is pretty simple. Its a heroclix fig, the question: http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/dc/figuregallery.asp?unitid=12617 with a head...
Thought i'd introduce myself and pose a couple of questions while i'm at it. Picked up a fair ammount of BTD Dr Who figures at a bring and buy recently and am...
Forget UNIT. Torchwood One with their urban camo troops is where it's at (except for the whole surrendering to the Cybermen at the battle of Canary Wharf...). ...
Cheers for the links Navin. I use the Copplestone ones for my Combat Zone games. Not really that taken with Torchwood to be honest. Sat down with kids to watch...
