2012: The Year I Get More Stuff Did

So. 2012. We’re a full month into it and by now I’ve crystallised most of what I want to achieve for the year. As last year, I’m documenting most of it here so I have a reminder and some place to track it.

Warpcon 2012: Day 3: Sunday:

Sunday Morning this year was marked by a lack of tiredness on my part, as I didn’t for once, partake of the shananigans that usually revolve around any group of Cork Gamers and a bar. :)

Trust me, if you want more info, make friends withe the Skibb Wargamers and the lads from WAC… Continue reading

Warpcon 2012: Day 2: Saturday

So, Saturday morning I rocked on up to the Student Center in UCC to get my pass and register. Due to delays with the opening of the center it was about 19.15 when I pitched up to the 40K registration.

This time, the delays were on UCC’s side, not the WARPs Trolls.
Between IT hiccups and general Saturday morning confusion, the games kicked off around 10.30. Warpcon 2012 was being played with the new ETC Primary and Secondary mission objectives. Continue reading

Warpcon 2012: Day 1: Friday

Hello there! If you’re coming from Wee Gamers, Welcome! This is a short piece I wrote for them covering my experience of Warpcon 2012 from the Warhammer 40K scene in Cork.

Just to get a few things out of the way: I’m in no way a Power Gamer or a WAAC kind of person. I’m currently (until the AGM at least) the Secretary of WAC (The Wargamers Association of Cork). And I tend to ramble a bit… :D

These next few posts detail my experiences at what has been my 7th Warpcon to date. Read on for more. Continue reading

On Nerdery; Kindles and PDFs

So my wonderful girlfriend got me an Amazon Kindle for Christmas. And besides actually reading stuff on it, I’ve also managed to realise it allows you to read text files and PDF files as well.

That fact was a godsend. So for warpcon, I’ve gotten PDF copies of the 40K codexes I own and put them on. I’ve also gotten the PDF of my List on there as well. :)

I’ll still print the list, but this time at least I can lighten the load and not drag 7 rule books around!

 

Isn’t technology marvellous when I can bend it to my whim? :D

On Determination…

“I’m tired…”

Two words that encompass a slew of feelings, descriptions and states of being.
It’s what comes after the first two words that makes it far from a simple statement.
