< afny>
agh
13:33
< afny>
I'm afraid to put this new build on flikr
13:33
< afny>
because I know it's going to draw wh4k comparisons
13:33
< afny>
and I'll have to knife somebody

< Mantisking>
Just checking in to see if anyone's around.
16:35
< afny>
o/
16:35
< afny>
watching starcraft all morning
16:35
< afny>
and building
16:35
< afny>
whats up
16:44
< Mantisking>
Not much. Just lazing around after going out for dinner last night.
16:46
< afny>
whadja eat
16:46
< Mantisking>
Whiskey glazed Beef Brisket.
16:47
< Mantisking>
We went to our favorite restaurant in Boston.

16:56
< Mantisking>
So, Afny, what are you building?
16:58
< afny>
fiddling with weapons for these two

16:58
< afny>
finished the red one this morning
17:00
< Mantisking>
I saw that earlier. Is the red one built on your mini-commisar frame?
17:01
< afny>
which one is the mini commissar
17:01
< afny>
the one with minifig legs for legs?
17:02
< Mantisking>
Yeah.
17:02
< afny>
nah, nothing similar to that one really
17:02
< afny>
it uses the same legs as the hop wallop though
17:03
< afny>
but the similarities are only below the waist
17:04
< Mantisking>
I like the beefed ous shoulders on REd.
17:06
< afny>
thanks
17:06
< afny>
I wanted to push the aesthetic away from Solar Calendar stuff and the shoulders were how I did it
17:06
< Mantisking>
Cool.
17:07
< Mantisking>
None of my stuff is really built for the SC anyway.
17:08
< afny>
makes sense if you were building for mechaton before it had lore
17:08
< Mantisking>
True.
17:09
< afny>
I really like the setting, but I haven't built anything outside of it
17:09
< afny>
with the exception of that chub that had a car grille
17:09
< afny>
since I started building
17:09
< afny>
until these frames, anyway
17:10
< Mantisking>
I'm not sure how I feel about the setting.
17:11
< afny>
I think it's great for a couple reasons
17:11
< afny>
it allows for a let of insertion and flexibility (that's what he said)
17:12
< afny>
but the factions and their motivations are also very believable before the player even touches them
17:12
< afny>
it also isn't callous in its depiction of war
17:19
< Mantisking>
That's a good point but I'm not sure how the things I've created will be able to be incorporated into the setting, if at all.
17:19
< afny>
yeah, it's a little restrictive in that sense
17:20
< afny>
even disregarding the aesthetic (which I also enjoy)
17:20
< afny>
no reason you have to play in it, though
17:20
< afny>
I don't mind that about it, though
17:20
< afny>
I like making different stuff for different settings
17:23
< Mantisking>
Yeah.
17:23
< Mantisking>
I'm not as interested in telling stories as Joshua or Vincent.
17:24
< Mantisking>
I just want to put Lego on the table and chuck dice.
17:25
< afny>
I'm not all that into roleplaying when actually playing the game
17:25
< Mantisking>
A story can add some drama to the game but, I'm generally the type of gamer who plays to solve problems.
17:25
< afny>
but I like digging into the setting when building the frames
17:25
< afny>
I don't need the game itself to tell a story beyond the dice, but I like it to hint at one, at least
17:54
< Mantisking>
Part of me wants to be at Gencon right now.
