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!

AAR: Hold Until Overrun

The first (of hopefully many!) After Action Reports using Get Your Frickin' Tentacle Out Of My Face: the IABSM sci-fi variant from the TFL Christmas Special 2009. Here, a brave rapid reaction force is ordered to "Hold until Overrun" in the face of insectoid assault from The Hive. Epic stuff!

Read the AAR here.

GYFTOOMF: Protolene Khanate

I've added details for Critical Mass Games' Marrok Walkers: medium walkers to support the Protolene Khanate infantry.

The image below doesn't really do justice to the size of this thing, but a 15mm infantryman comes in at under the walker's knee height!

If there is such a thing as trends in wargaming, then 15mm science-fiction is currently it. The last year or so has seen an explosion in the range and variety of figures available: the mainly human ranges already existent have been joined by Aphids, Quar, Spugs, Garn, Karkarines, Felids, Dracon, Blarad and Greys to name but a few.

In the TooFatLardies 2009 Xmas Special, I wrote a sci-fi adaptation of IABSM so that I could play with all my new sci-fi toys. Although you'll need the 2009 Xmas Special article to play the game, here is the start of a host of useful support material, along with the usual Army Gallery and AAR sections.
