The selection for "Ship with order 7472880" is missing from the options.

Can you please move the items.


The side cart items did not move to ship with my latest subscription.

Please correct this error.


Since the website upgrade, I can not view order history.


Will there be any future options for a print bundle?


I have just submitted an order for all August items. Please merge the cart so I can save on shipping.


There is one with double falchion at

www.bombshellminis.com


Please cancel this order.

There seems to be a problem with either my account or the side cart system. My last several orders seem to remain stagnant for months at a time until I drive the system through customer service.


As this order has been on hold since June 2014

Remove the items which are unavailable and preventing the processing of the order.


A thread about future releases gets flipped into an edition VS thread in less than 24 hours-----typical


If you want a system that is not quite Pathfinder---13th Age or Five Moons is worth a look.

As far as selling you on Five Moons---it is Sean K. Reynold's system and not really in print yet---so you would have to go on just the value of his name.

5E---New player advantage system---new ways to deal with healing---spell slots ( but more flexible spell slots )

I know not everyone has the extra $$ to spend on a book that they will not use---but every game system out there has pros and cons---read the systems and take away what you like or move on to another system


Nice work---thanks for your efforts.


I have never played the cypher system---this looks like the perfect time to try it out.


Fully funded and now on to the stretch goals.


Third Eye Games has a kickstarter up for the next version of Apocalypse Prevention Inc.

Well reviewed game.
Known Publisher.
And at 89% of target goal with only 130 backers.

Worth checking out.

PC's enter room with and spot a goblin.
Before PC's can make a move, goblin downs large potion, rips off shirt to reveal a tight fitting under shirt with large red letter "S".
---assign random powers as fits the adventure---


Toon
Ghostbusters
Paranoia
V&V


Workout secrets?!?!?

High calorie lean diet.
Heavy drop sets.
Gamma Rays.

Come to think of it, put Gamma Rays at the top.


Tom Baker
The Pyramids of Mars back in 1978 on PBS.

The "Mummies" stuck with me over all these years.
Watched it again on DVD---still fun if a bit dated.


Other Reaper
Dwarf Kneebreaker

Dungeon tiles--City
I think it is from Wizards of the Coast
You can order in online from Walmart for $15.


I am showing my age...but Lupin and Devilman were a few years before Robotech
Battleship Yamoto was probably a good 5 years before Robotech also.

I hope the Kickstarter is a big hit.

On a small side quest from the main adventure---the typical find and rescue an important persons lost kid...

Entering a large cave with a large number of sleeping owl-bears

The party Dwarf--in a whisper--"Hey kid if you are in here don't make a sound"
Then remembering that we were still just following up on rumors of where the kid could be lost at...

Dwarf--in a whisper--"Hey kid are you in here?"


The named characters and special monsters are "mostly" within the Pathfiner adventures---so copyfight will probably keep you from finding anything online.

Start hounding the messageboards/product wishlist with requests for PDF character compendium.


If you want less min/maxing and fewer issues with game mechanic exploitation.....
2 Suggestions
Savage Worlds
Fate System

You may need to do a bit of world building, or luck into a supplement that that you think has the right "feel" to it.


If you are not sure what spells are carried over to 5e, then you can not be sure what magic items are carried over also.....portable holes, bag-o-holding, wasn't there some sort of "basket of plenty"....

Then again, if you can't use the front door for a year, try to make your own door out.

Also, on a side note, Arnwyn is pretty much correct....during deployment it is always the water that is an issue, 2weeks of meal packs are no problem, the water and ammo big problem, on average we were packing in about 200lbs


I will agree with DeathQuaker...Never go cheap on the brush, but I have to add that also never go cheap on the brush cleaner. The cake of brush soap, or you can get a good liquid at most craft stores...this might seem silly when most people have plenty of cleaning supplies around the house...but trust me left over soap is the quickest way to have your paint flake off.

Get gaming paints, there are many good products out there...stay away from craft and model paints. Please stay away from the dollar stores... this may be a bit off putting, but the paints that are made for fabric or aircraft/car kits are good at what they are supposed to do...not always good when scaled down to a 28mm miniature.

Lastly, if you have a bit of a budget to spend....I would suggest getting a small "swing arm" light, or if you can spend a bit you can even get one with a mag lens in the middle.


Castle Snack Attack

Shadowborn already took Game-n-Grub

Buffet and Slay---Ha

Good luck in your endeavor.

Depending on the "type" of stone you want...pick 2 or 3 "spec" colors
Since you have gray you may want to try black, white, and a ghost gray
Take a small brush with very stiff bristles...I use an old toothbrush and a general purpose cleaning brush from a hardware store.

Dip the brush in one color and use your thumb to "flick" the bristles at the miniature...practice on a scrap paper first so you can view what makes a blobby mess and what makes a too fine mist

This will help on your stone texture


If you are looking for a "top" that can be used with many different games, get a sheet of the insulation board---the backing is the same type of plastic used in dry erase boards---it will need a thin sheet of ply backing for strength.

If the table is going to sit and never move again, use doubled up 2x4 for the legs and single for the frame.


Beware this kickstarter. The "models produced are about to be shipped to previous backers" statement is a bit of a joke. The previous kickstarter ended 3 months ago and no product has shipped to date.


Although I think your product is the best, I need to cancel my ongoing subscription to Pathfinder.


The Golem for sure---but I think that I will buy 1 of each.


Please cancel my GameMastery Subscription


Please cancel my Gamemastery ongoing subscription. I have no complaints about your excellent product---this is probably the best print edition module out there---I am just getting too "backloged" in my gaming material with all of the excellent material that you put into Pathfinder. In the future, when all of the 3e v 4e hoopla has died down, I will renew my subscription to build up my library of 4e adventure material.


To reply to the original post--Yes, I am excited about 4th edition.

But with that said, I can understand how upset people are. It was not too long ago that the 3.5 books were released, and anyone looking for an evil corporate presence will have their fears justified.

Anyone that defines their hobby as "gaming" will find problems with any gaming system that is out there...and if you have found the perfect gaming system then stick with it. I have had problems with the D&D magic system all the way back to second edition--At low levels you cast a spell and stand around hoping not to get attacked--At Higher levels you cast bigger spells and then stand around hoping not to get attacked--and the Magic using types have no HP and no melee skills anyway. At least all the rumors to date have a magic system with an "At Will" "Per Encounter" "Per Day" use.

If you are not excited about the potential for good changes then stick to 3.5


I like the idea of this set selling as a complete set. I suggest getting multiples of Item pack #1 if there is an item that you must have multiples of---Or you could just use the backs of the cards to note that there are multiples, the only time you would "need" multiples of a potion card is if every character in an adventuring party carried the same potion


If this set were Dragons Trove I would guess it would be some type of Diamond--but this set is for gear and it should be after crowbar---My official guess is "Crystal Ball"


All the ideas listed here are great, but how about offering the packs in character related groupings. Packs that are sorted to be directed towards specific character types or even related pairs of characters

Fighter/Barbarian
Bard/Rogue
Wizard/Healer


Recceived an e-mail late in the afternoon on Dec. 6---Relics of War Shipping.


Any further updates on item pack 3???
