Hey everybody, I just wrote up a new battle report for Jain's Guide (
http://www.wildlink.com/lego/jain/ ) - I don't know why I never thought of
doing it before. It's from a game we played on the 7th of May at Matthew
Wilkins' place in Portland. Matthew played the mysterious unidentified gray
invaders, my brother Joe played the evil DarkTron, and I played the heroic
Buttercup's Brigadiers. I easily scored the most kills in the battle, thanks
to a large number of friendly-fire casualties among my own troops. (A few of
them may have been a little overzealous.)

Glorious! Although you didn't get any good shots of the scorpian, the spider or
the monestary...

...You have to love those friendly-fire results! Often the best way to die in a good game!

Wow, the report in question only lightly describes the extent to which my
hindquarters were booted. *smile* If anyone cares, the gray forces in question
are from the Imperial Space Forces of His Imperial Majesty, the Unquestioned
Ruler of the Nine Skies, Immortal Son of the One True Governor, Stinky, His
Pre-eminent Grace, Lord Clayhaven Illiswerth Nepomuk Jim-Bob McCoy Geoffrey
Charles Fauntleroy, Hovis the Twenty-Third. Or, if you don't want to wear
yourself out, the Space Marines of Hovis 23rd.
I was hoping that Mike would post some better pictures of my forces... how
'bout it Mike? I would, but they'd be hand-drawn, and not representative of
the MOCs. *smirk*

The important thing is, that I had to send that boot through my own
hindquarters to get to yours.

Holy smokes, even if I had known I would've pretended I didn't!

You're not going to believe this, but those are all the pictures I have. I
totally screwed up in not getting better pictures of your army. If I had had
them, I sure would've posted them.

I request that that name be stricken from the record!

I think the whole reason Mike took pictures of this battle was to show off
Buttercup, so don't feel bad. I was hoping he'd take a good shot of my spider
(which is a blatent ripoff of Adrian Drake's idea). I intend to get the thing
into a .dat file if only I could figure out where the 2x2 slope brick is kept
(I'm sure I'll feel like a dolt after i finally find it...)

Try other parts/ S (S for slopes...)

You can search for parts on partsref
<http://www.lugnet.com/cad/ldraw/parts/ref/>. Once you've got the part
name and number, you should be able to find it more easily in your
software. Like Pearson said, if you're using MLCad, slope bricks are
under the Other Parts hierarchy.

Don't worry about it. Somehow I screwed up the parts update installation,
which is why I was unable to find such a basic part. It's fixed now. Now I'm
waiting for the X-1 Tie windshield to come out :P

I just need to get off of my duff and borrow/steal a camera from someone. Then
post the pix... uh, I'll do it later.

...Oh, and the reporter's stipend of 5KStC for this submission was converted into CMu
(Command Monetary) and deposited in the central bank on 1-3 Lidic under your name as per
the submissions guidelines at http://wildlink.com/lego/jain/submissions.htm. You can pick
it up there at your convenience.
