Along with not gaming much for a couple months now, I hadn’t been out to Redcap’s Corner in basically forever. Tonight though I swung by and picked up a few updates from Adam and Benn:

• Saturday, Jan 8th they’re holding a painting & scenery day. They didn’t have real plans yet, but most likely low key. They were talking about it mostly in terms of a group paint session to help people get/stay motivated to paint, with people bringing in anything they have in progress and just hanging out and working on it. They’re also planning on working on some more store terrain that day, with everybody pitching in as they want.
• On that note, they’ve definitely beefed up their terrain. Even just on the two tables I saw set up downstairs, they’d done a pretty nice job with one of the Citadel plastic tables & a bunch of modular woods, and had a really nicely done blue hued take on a Planetstrike board, complete with Landing Pad, bunch of Bastions, Aegis Defense Lines, and a Fortress of Redemption (!). They also had a bunch of assembled but unpainted Fantasy terrain that looked pretty good. As I thought from checking it out on the website, the new GW Watchtower in both complete and ruined version is pretty cool.
• The 40k league seems to be doing well. It sounded like they’ve had a regular 4 or so tables going on Thursdays. For the past couple months, they’ve even expanded it out to include a regular game league on Thursdays, and a 200pt Kill Teams league on Tuesday nights. They’ve been using the very bare bones Kill Teams rules in the Battle Missions book, but their informal, non-competitive nature is really starting to show up—unstoppable Dreadnoughts, etc. So, they’re probably going to switch to Adepticon Kill Teams rules, which adds a lot of Combat Patrol styled limitations and I think is definitely a good idea.
• The 40k & Fantasy stock selection on hand was not tremendously beefier than in the past, but enough to be noticeable, so they continue to make progress on it as their community grows. One very notable thing though was that their selection of GW paint is now basically complete, they’ve filled out the standard display rack.

All in all, good stuff! I’m currently planning on both the painting day and at least January & February for Kill Teams, so hopefully I’ll see some other people there as well!
