Your way adds more time to searching a room by making two draws. The whole point of the deck is to cut down on the time searching a building.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-38993469100479563902011-11-19T09:47:02.783+00:002011-11-19T09:47:02.783+00:00Great batrep as usual.

That way you don't know in advance whether it worth it to spend a turn searching in advance. Plus it would add more variety to the deck.<br />Draw a risks card/spend a turn searching/draw a rewards card.Brazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18152323114775917185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-2322690478787002852011-11-18T09:58:58.212+00:002011-11-18T09:58:58.212+00:00@Joe.

Congrats on taking the plunge into card modelling. Making your ground tiles first is definitely the way to get started. Buildings and scenery can come later. Also, you're right to concentrate on simple models like the shipping containers for your first builds. Start with something easy to get the hang of card modelling. And don't be afraid to drop me a line if you want any advice.<br /><br />A new blog? Woot! If you let me know what its address is I'll add it to my list of favourite blogs for you.

The road and concrete tiles are from the TLX Streets of Legends set, whilst the grass tiles come from the TLX Hinterland Woods set. The four houses were built from the old style Shellendrak Manor set, whilst the general store was from a couple of kitbashes for the ground floor and sloped roof. The first floor came from the old style Mayhem Armoury set. The Horseman's Deli and Dry Cleaning store are a pair of Microtactix models glued side by side and reviewed on this blog very recently.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-72016479594868622212011-11-16T18:52:34.073+00:002011-11-16T18:52:34.073+00:00Another very cool write up Vampifan.
