It is not often in this hobby that I am caught off guard and
surprised by the actions of a manufacture of games and rules. But Warlord have done just that.
Free army lists to download for Beyond the Gates of Antares. *heavy breathing*
Imagine my delight that only a few moments of finding these
online lists and downloading them and then flicking through them.
Imagine then the immediate disappointment when realising
that perhaps all of the previous lists inside “Listing to Port” are now out of
date *boo hiss*.
Imagine then the delight when I realise that I get to do all
the lists all over again!! *Woop!!*
At least it will be delightful for me. For avid readers of this blog that are permitted
internet access while the doctors perform further tests to determine sanity,
this will also be delightful in time. *heavy

There will also be an arrangement of cabinets, whose surface area covers
6 foot by 4 foot. A good size no
doubt. Work permitting I may also get to
spend some time in the room too.
Finally, in a first for Listing to Port, I will also be including
pictures of the armies I am building. I
can guarantee the painting will NOT set the world alight, but there are other
blogs dedicated to painting by far more talented painters than myself.
So to both of my regular fans out there, the good ship
Bounty is refuelled and ready to traverse another gate as we travel around the
great Antares machine, all the while Listing to Port.
