What is New with Neal?

My job is keeping everyone else busy around here, plus expanding the store offerings and making the website work and look even better.  This is what I am working on right now:

#New logo banner is up, some changes to the checkout screen.  Mostly cosmetic.

#I’m still working on the Wishlist feature – I am not happy with how complicated it is in its current state.  Sorry for the delay on this.

#Major Update to the ABG section of the site

#Zvezda plastic coming soon, and an expansion of the Testor’s line is being considered..

#Loads of pics added to Foundry pages

#Reaper update completed.

#Wyrd Miniatures section update

I’m Out!

News from the Front

This will be the spot where  The WarStore staff will contribute a weekly column on various topics.  Hopefully most of it will make sense, and we will all learn something from it.  This week’s contributor it the Don of WarStore Gaming, Mr Dwyer.

I’d Like to Buy a Vowel

As TheWarStore grows and shelves bulge with more and more product, we the friendly WarStore staff find that we are interested in playing a greater variety of games. This may not sound like a dilemma to most sane people, but for us the indecisive gamer, we can never seem to decide on a game to play. For instance I love both Warmachine and Hordes but have not played either in quite some time. (Frowny Face)

 So to help us with our little dilemma we decided to leave our gaming choices to fate, and are constructing a wheel of fortune. Similar to the “Wheel of Morality” from the Animaniacs that helped determine what lesson they should teach their viewers, this wheel help us with the difficult decision of what game to play.

 So starting this Monday at lunch we will spin “The Wheel of Gamer Fate” and that spin will let us know what games will be played that week. We have hopes that this innovation will put a end to the most dreaded conversation of “What are we playing this week?”

All is now clear on TheWarStore front …
