New home, new hope but no internet connection

Hi all, it's been a while since I gave any updates but my life changed a bit.
I eventually found a flat in Nantes !
Agrandir le plan

The flat has four rooms and is 52 square meters. The living room is really clear and faces SW.
But I still don't have any internet access. I am in the process of negociating a nice price with my ISP but they don't appear to be willing to do a single rebate. Wateva ...

I hope everything is still in good shape because I saw the guys manipulate the boxes and I fear that there will be a lot of glue job to be expected ...

Well, I will let you know as soon as I am back in the hobby :)

Bon anniversaire

Well well, it's been one year now since I first post on this blog. Things have been going rather slowly but I enjoyed them so far. I think it is time for a quick look back.

I got back to business after feeling bored by the MMORPG I was playing last summer and was looking forward to participate in the Guild Beta of Warhammer Online. So I spent a couple of months tidying and gluing my Imperial Guards.

Then the Beta launched and I spent less time to the Hobby. But I was quickly disappointed at the release of Warhammer Online and eventually went back to the hobby and some minor MMORPG.

I only played 3 games in one year, lost all of them, but increased the ranks of my valorous guardsmen.

Now that I was about to paint the first colour scheme test, I had to move home. So, another delay in the completion of my objectives... fingers crossed...

Anyway, it's been a year of fun and it was really interesting to get in touch with some members of the community. Ideas wildly flourished and I had to struggle before getting flooded :p
So this is it, I hope to get back to business once I have my new flat (within a couple of weeks hopefully).

I'll keep in touch from time to time before then :)

Beta Dawn of War II

La béta de DoW2 est disponible pour tout le monde depuis quelques jours déja.

J'ai pu grace a mon compte Steam y jouer un peu avant tout le monde. Je dois avouer que je suis plutot supris par cette nouvelle version. Et d'une maniere générale, plutot décu ...

La vitesse de deplacement, le fait que les escouades sont limitées en nombre (3 pour les SM sans compter le sergent), l'abscence d'unité d'élite (Baneblade, Land Raider, etc ...) me deplaisent. J'ai vraiment l'impression de jouer a Necromunda plutot qu'a Warhammer 40.000 ...

A l'heure actuelle, je ne suis pas pret de l'acheter, c'est tant mieux, j'ai d'autres choses a acheter ! Comme de la carte plastique, des pinceaux, des forets de modélisme et de la peinture... Bref, a suivre ...
