Thanksgiving and gaming with grandpa… November 24, 2006
Posted by webofwebhead in Uncategorized.add a comment
Hey everyone, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. We had a traditional feast over at my folks place, followed by naps and then poker, as is tradition. My grandparents taught my sister and I poker when we were young (like 9 and 6 or something like that), and it’s been a family past time ever since. Usually we play dealer calls the game, which is great, as each hand is played different from the last. My grandpa in particular is very good at introducing new games he has picked up, and I noticed he never (or rarely) deals the same game twice in a night. I think I’ve learned more from him than I would have thought when it comes to games. What’s great, when you call the game, you can make it up on the fly, or tweak the variations as you go…a great mental exercise.
Anyway…back to Marvel Attacktix previews today…and with any luck they’ll be on the shelves soon… – B

The parent company of Scrye magazine has purchased gamingreport.com, one of the best sources for gaming news on the internet. You can read the news on www.gamingreport.com. I’m hoping that the eclectic range of both publications mesh well…I look forward to seeing how the too merge up. – B

Attacktix Strategy Guide: The Evolution of Bait – Ordering Attacks November 10, 2006
Posted by webofwebhead in Attacktix, CMG, Game Theory, Star Wars, Transformers.add a comment
One of the most important in-game strategies for Attacktix is a concept I call Ordering Attacks. This theory has evolved from my HeroClix theory on Bait, which I’ll recap in a moment.
Today I’m going to try and define the concept of Ordering Attacks and give you some of the fundamentals of using it during the game. Chances are, some of you are doing this already, but might not have an overriding philosophy guiding those choices.

Today’s preview is probably amongst the most obscure of the Marvel set…due to the fact that it is in reality a charcter from the forthcoming Ghost Rider movie…
Marines out in force for Toys for Tots November 7, 2006
Posted by webofwebhead in Uncategorized.1 comment so far
My daughter and I were doing a little Christmas shopping at TRU over the weekend, and it was very cool to see a pair of uniformed Marines taking collection for the Toys for Tots program. I dontated some Attacktix boosters (surprise surprise), and next time I think it will be some Barbies or Polly Pockets, whichever my daughter picks out. Being so into toys, this very well might be favorite charity, I encourage everyone that can spare a five spot to consider how far that might go towards a great toy for a kid in need. – Brett
