Indeed!

Vampifan, talking about coolness, you can use this link to resize your LAF's avatar picture online with much better quality to make justice to our beloved Fanged Goddess: https://www.reduceimages.com/

(I use 80X80 pixels size image)   ;)

Unless, of course, that small and out of focus image is part of a larger and absolutely wicked plan...   ;D

Thanks for the hint on resizing my profile pic. Sadly, no matter how small I reduce it to, I can't change it. This is the only forum that will not allow me to use my normal profile picture. I even reduced it to 10x10 pixels! Bah, humbug! >:(

Try this one (by Frazetta, of course!); just save it, export to the online picture resizing site and set it to 79X79 pixels with 90% quality in PNG format:  

It works - see the second picture:

BTW — no chance that the Nosferatu figure (the one called Broadsire in the Red Hand Coven or whatever) will ever be sold and advertised separately again? This magnificent one should deserve wide promotion outside the range.

Lots of guys in the FB page are asking the same! But for 7.50 I think it's still worth to buy the Broodsire and get a couple of Broodkins in the package - really great sculpts full of character!  ;)

OK, yes I'll do that. I've also noticed some nice new products on your website - the "fruits & veg baskets and boxes" in your Skytrex range - ...I'll order them together, and perhaps travelling in the same postal box the vampires will change their diet and turn veggie. lol

...I still think that the Nosferatu / broodsire (um yes not "broadsire" as I wrote earlier, forgive my Klatchian accent) figure would deserve a larger promotion outside the specific range, but you do as you think good.

Oooops... You were so willing to talk favourably about them that I got confused, sorry.  ::) :-X :)

What's not to talk favourably about Nick and North Star?!  ;)

Good morning gentlemen,

Apologies if the question was already asked but I'm not sure on one point of rules.
Rulesbook says on page 116 about Supernatural Creatures:

"If their first Move takes them into Contact with an enemy model, they will
use their second Action to Fight if possible
. Note that a Charging Creature ends
its Activation after making its free Fight – it does not Fight twice!"

I get that if the creature get into contact (in other words, manages to Charge), it will have to use its second action to fight.
But then the non-bold part of the rules says creature do not get a second action after the free fight one when they charge.

So could you good people let me know how do you play this?

Thanks ahead

Enjoy your day!

@c12: Good morning!
The intent behind this rule was simply to stop creatures slaughtering their way through the player's Posses! Some (especially some of the creatures in upcoming books) are pretty lethal...

So to break it down for you, a creature will get two Actions to Move towards a victim (or Move and Shoot in some cases), but once it is in Contact with somebody it will only get a single Fight Action.

Remember that a model can engage an enemy and not count as Charging (if it couldn't see them at the start of the Move- see page 20)- a Move into Contact is not always a Charge by definition!  :)

Hope that helps.

@All: My turn to ask for some help! I received a big box of official DA figures from the kind folks at Osprey this week, and I've already been feverishly painting- can anybody recommend a free picture hosting site (Photobucket is not an option!) so I can get some photos up? Cheers!
I now have a Blog, like an actual modern-day human!
