I got another year of lies and deception and possibly scammed out of over $2,000.00 to $2,500.00 by Architects of Destruction' s Rampaging Dungeons for almost 6 years overdue kickstarter and Knight Models/Games Escape from Arkham Asylum closing 8n onover one year. Both companies have gone silent. Knight Models/Games have 🤬 deleted negative comments and both have ignored significant updates, communication, etc. for months. I and thousands more like me must have been very naughty to put our trust in these treacherous, fleeces!!

It lasts until Epiphany, right? :)

Well, as mentioned elsewhere, in early December I got my pledge for By Fire and Sword 2nd edition. Beside the books and a few units, there are so many bonus special characters (in 15mm) that I have to allocate a full day for identifying and labelling them. lol

Then right after the New Year I got a parcel of Warmonger goblins, very Adams-heavy, ordered from their Christmas sale. Therefore it clearly counts as Christmas stuff. Santa just got stuck in customs.

All actual hobby activity, apart from buying, has been on hold for a long time for reasons. Now there definitely is plenty of raw material. Regarding actual re-activation, there could be some hope, but that belongs to another topic.

Without wishing to downplay your obviously traumatic experience, just remember the words of the (anonymous) wise man: “Disappointment isn’t just for Christmas - it’s for life”.

I suppose it’s only fair to add that my gifts to myself included an unauthorised overdraft.
