Welcome Nazgob...

Yeah dude...Welcome to the Merry Mayhem News Crew...

After long chats through Facebook,Nazgob finally told me that he wanted to be a part of the crew.He told me that his life was becoming a little boring and,he wanted to enjoy the pleasures (mainly girls and booze) of being a Mega Star.

Since im such a cool guy,i´ve talked with the other (cool) guys and,we´ve decided that we were going to accept Nazgob in our little den of the 1000 corpses....thats what we call to the secret room in which we play Blood Bowl by the way....yes....we do have a secret room...but its not a den...

So,brother Nazgob,here´s a taste of the privileges you´ve won by entering our brotherhood...yes....we are a brotherwood...with a secret den...or room...but its still secret.



LOLOLOL

The truth is,Nazgob has a cool blog (click HERE),he painted some cool teams,he´s a Blood Bowl fanatic like the rest of us and,most important,he seems like a great guy...and for me,thats everything...so...Welcome to the crew mate,i hope you enjoy it and please feel free to contact the other MMN members because they are great guys too.

The "Iron Man"...



"Ozzy Osbourne's Black Sabbath bandmate Tony Iommi diagnosed with cancer...

Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi is to undergo treatment for cancer after being diagnosed with lymphoma.
His bandmates - with whom he has recently been reunited to record a new album - have asked for fans to send 'positive vibes' to the 63-year-old musician.
The hard rock pioneers recently reformed with their original line-up to work on their first album together for 33 years.

A statement released on behalf of the band said: 'Iommi is currently working with his doctors to establish the best treatment plan - the Iron Man of rock & roll remains upbeat and determined to make a full and successful recovery.'
The group, widely credited with creating heavy metal, insist they will plough on with plans for the new album.

Black Sabbath had also lined up a series of major dates during the year.
Iommi and colleagues Ozzy Osbourne, bass player Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward announced last year that they were together again once more.

They had been writing and recording in Los Angeles with producer Rick Rubin on an album due for release in the autumn.


The statement said the group would continue to work on the recording: 'They will now go to the UK to continue to work with Tony. Further information will be released as it becomes available.'
Left-handed player Iommi famously lost the tips of two fingers working in a sheet metal factory as a teenager but learned to play with thimble-like devices to extend them.

The Birmingham-based band, renowned for their powerful riffs, made their debut as Black Sabbath in 1969 and continue to be cited as a major influence on successive generations of rock bands.

Wild-living Osbourne was axed from the line-up in 1979 and replaced by Ronnie James Dio who died of cancer in 2010.

Black Sabbath had been due to play the UK's Download Festival this summer."

This is sad...Tony Iommi is one of my all time favourite guitar players and had a great influence on me guitar wise.Get well soon.

"G-Dub to the feetup whutupshun! This time for reals… hear the debut of G-Dub’s first song, called #WHUTUPSHUN. He takes over the show from Jonny P this month with his cohost/ “secretary bitch” Xtreme. Full coverage of December tournaments, along with a preview of what’s to come in January. For an in-depth preview, the guys talk with Steve and Scott from the newest Blood Bowl Podcast, Both Down, and also the organizers of Orclahoma Bowl. Lastly, this episode is a two-parter since part 2 is the 2011 Awards show! Find out who won the Best Tournament Model Award, Iron Man, Best Guest, Best Star Player Guest, Meatloaf, and Zlurpcast Coach of the Year! This episode clocks in at just under 2 hours and according to G-Dub it’s about a 1 hour and 57 minutes of filler when his song isn’t playing. Zlurp Nation members will get a seperate download of the song including lyrics later this month. Download Episode 30 thrice please. Tell two friends. Tell one enemy."

Star players...

Nothing like a festive weekend with plenty of 'nothing to do' and a few boring shows on TV, to dig out the paint set!
With the painting mode: ON, and lots of lead begging for ink on the shelves, I've decided to have a go with a couple of Blood Bowl 'Star Players' that will sooner or later be useful in our league games.

The first one is an home made version of the "Slibli" (how silly is that name?) a Saurus Lizardmen Star player with Block, Grab, Guard and Stand Firm. A really nice addition to any new Liz team, specially in a perpetual league such as ours.
The body is from an Warhammer saurus (5th edition box), a head from a more recent sprue, all joined together with some green stuff and a couple of other bits .




The second star is this stout little guy I had around since ever, that goes by the name of Puggy Baconbreath. Game wise it's quite a tough guy for is size (Block Dodge, Nerves of Steel,...), but like his halfling counterparts (and despite his look), it has an armour made of paper (AV 6)...




Hope you enjoy them!
A.

Merry New Year!




It's the first day of the new year!
In most cultures a new year means new beginnings, new hopes, and new resolves.
The chance to fix the wrongs, and plan for higher things...

Over here at Merry Mayhem News, I dont have the pretentiousness to aim that deep, therefore a "new year" will hopefully mean new miniatures, new games, and new fun stuff all together!
Kudos to us all if we achieve that!

With this new year spirit in mind it would be really cool to know "gaming wise", what would be your plans for this new year.

Do you want to paint a new Blood Bowl team? A new gang? A new army?
Please, let us know!

Is there a new game you've been dying to try out? Or an old gaming opponent you really want to beat?
By all means, let us know!

Is there a tournament or competition you wish to win, or just attend to?
Don't be shy, let us know!

Don't hold back, its the beginning of a new year, aim high and please share your plans and wishes with us all!

And please have a
MERRY NEW YEAR!
