Played my first game of Guild Ball last night Brewers vs. Alchemists. Overall review was that its a fun, well balances and tactical game. Its was simple to learn, but I could see that there was scope for refined complexity.
A basic run down of the game is Violet Football (Soccer) in a Victorian style setting with hints of Steampunk and High Fantasy. I found a good playlist of videos which explain the game, rules, tactics and teams better than listing them out here. Also the Rules, Teams, Markers and even paper dolls of the players are available for free download as PDF files from the official site. The games last about an hour tops (even as a beginner) so quick to give a it a go. If and when you do invest in miniatures the sculpts looked great, weren't expensive and were of a high quality.
Let me know what you think if you try it out.

I played the Brewers Guild who were fairly hitty with a longer melee range (polearms) weapons but had good ball handling skills as well.
Brewer Starter Set
Just bought myself the Frostgrave Rulebook for a game in September. Hopefully going to get some mini's soon, want to check through the rules first to see which Wizard I prefer.
Best Deal I found was from Wordery for £9.74 free p&p (UK):
Found a quick Video on YouTube about Frostgrave to give an overview of the game.Undead Army List padded out for UK Suppliers (some available in US and Europe). I will add add more and for other countries as I go through.
I Also found a hint that there will be a book released new year which could contain conversion to different scales but that is just my hopeful conjecture. Cant get Time Code to work so its around 3:00 minutes in.
Have checked through a lot of sources regarding Primer Sprays and it appears that Halfords Primer's might be up to the task. I also saw something about Walmart Spray primers for those in the US
I will be testing the Halfords Paint as I can pick it up on my way home and see how it goes. I will post up results when I'm done.

I found a link but dont want to post it as I'm not sure about the procduct (I cant test it).
Be careful though, according to keezus (see source) Walmart keeps rotating their product lines. This meant that they were not able to find the same product twice.
I just purchased some Army Painter paints from Elemental Games Ebay Store (linked below). What I found interesting was that through Ebay I got a better deal than through their official web site (also linked below). The Ebay Store has a smaller selection than the main site but is still worth a look for the chance of a bargain.
Although they were listed more expensive in outlay on Ebay the postage and packaging was free. I only saved a couple of £'s overall but I think this sort of thing is worth bearing in mind when deal hunting. I have several Ebay and other on-line stores listed on the links page and all of them have really good deals for specific things.
If you have found anything that you think that is worth a mention I would be very great full if you let me know. You may have found deals or good sites (including your own stores and sites), I can then use them and list them.
