A Day of Nothing or Is it Possible to do LESS Than Nothing?
So I did absolutely NOTHING today. I mean I had to work this morning, but after sleeping post shift I literally did dick all. I was on the net for a while reading about Hero Quest. Hero Quest is a sweet board game that was made in the EARLY 90's where you have little figures and a board and stuff. It's a little dungeon crawl game that was super fun. I have most of the released sets for it and I have painted all of the miniatures. There were a few European only released sets which I wouldn't mind picking up but they go for a shit load on ebay. I found a bunch of tools to print out the info from them on your own, but then you still need the actual figures. It's possible to use Warhammer figures however. The amount of Hero Quest resources on the net is staggering. I had no idea how big it still was. There are custom rules for just about EVERYTHING. If I ever get around to buying miniatures again, I can use them in the game! All that is required is people who would actually want to play it with me. Oh yeah, I also found out that they made a more complicated and cool version of the game called Warhammer Quest. It was never released this side of the Atlantic so to try to get some of it will be SUPER expensive. Looking at the game though makes me want to. It looks super cool. The only thing is that it follows the typical Games Workshop bullshit where you have to buy a ton of expansions to get everything out of it. I found a guy selling pretty much everything there was on ebay and I figure it would probably cost me upwards of 300$ U.S. to get it all. I'm not prepared to spend that much money. To just get the basic set will cost me $100 U.S. Ouch! Maybe I'll just concentrate on trying to complete the Hero Quest set first...
Apart from all the Hero Quest reading I did, I can't think of anything constructive I've done today. I managed to get my essay and sketches done yesterday so I am pretty much good to go on the school front. I just need to do some finishing touches on the sketches (ie. put them in a model sheet format.) but apart from that, all is good. I guess I'll just take today as a write off and do nothing for the rest of the night either... Maybe I'll watch a movie or something.... or maybe not....
