Dreadball Veer-myn Booster pack “parting”

I picked up the Veer-myn Booster Pack the other day, as the last few models I need to get my AdeptiCon models done. I opened the box and found 3 of the now well known Mantic baggies inside. The sprue-less plastic is nice for packing and shipping. Hell for figuring out what pieces go with what model! Thankfully they have done a superb job of ensuring that the joins for each piece are different – you literally can’t put the wrong tail on the wrong rat.

I thought I’d write and post a photo of the final sorting. The easiest bag is the Keeper, who is in the bottom left of the photo. There are 2 bags that are identical, containing 1 prone marker, 1 alternative guard and 1 alternative striker. The other 4 models in this photo are from 1 of these bags. (I opened the other bag before realizing that I didn’t want to do that…)

I’m playing in a Dreadball one-day league this weekend (or rather, I’m organizing it…) so I’m hoping to figure out roughly how many extra models I’ll need for the Adepticon League in a Night event. I want to get the Keeper done, at a minimum, because I love the idea of a rat who’s sole purpose is to knock people over, take the ball and then punt it into the other end zone. YAY RATS!

I also constructed a name for my team — the Cheddar City Blade Runners. I think it’s a delicious mix of goofiness and sci-fi tropes. Now they all need names. 🙂
