... and you can only have one ball in play?

You can play a provisional (extra ball) at any time......Usually only when you think you've lost the original....Or it's gone out of bounds.
(Saves you walking all the way back where you played the previous shot.)

You can also play two balls if you think that you may have broken a rule ....But aren't sure.....You play, and note the scores with both balls and check with a rules' 'lawyer' at the end of the round to check which score should count.
Never EVER seen anybody do that though.

For what should be a very simple game......The rules can get very confusing sometimes.
I still wish I could go out and swing the golf bats about, every so often. :(

Of course what you do in the privacy of your own bathroom is up to the individual
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Not privacy per se, however, FSN's webcams will be working overtime  ;)

I was going to say nothing this year, but note I bought 8 'Really Useful Box' trays in Jan (£24), and £30 on stuff to make scenery for 7TV.  The odd pot of paint. I haven't bought figures for ages I think
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Shame on you!  :D
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Varies hugely.

This year i spent about 350 € i think in total, mostly on x-wing miniatures (well 250 to be exact) and a copy of memoir, some ringwraiths and paints/cardsleeves etc.

I did have a 450 € blowout around crisis in november though  :D

And last year on pendraken stuff, well i didn't count, here's the picture  :D :D :D



And that's without the acw and buildings etc etc...

Starting my magazine and overall this year totals 200 - 250 pounds. There is more afoot and paints, brushes etc. are not even included.
Which brings me about a PM to the other half of the new boss at minibits....  :d

About £25 per month not including books.

I prefer to small frequent orders to big ones and I generally wait until I've run out of things to paint before ordering more, the postage may be a bit higher but the shock to the bank account seems less and I don't amass a depressing 'lead mountain'.
