Interfectorem Vespa blinked for the first time, clearing its birth ichor from its eyes. Now that its mechanical face was gone, it could finally see clearly, see in ways that had previously been forbidden to it. But with this new warp site, it could see new and delicious ways to destroy the enemies of the loving chaos and anarchy for which it longed...

So one of my favorite games of all time is Epic. I've played most of the editions, starting armies as the game gets popular the selling my army when everyone local quits playing. The last time that happened, I decided to buy up a second army (I now have a third too!). But this post isn't about my second or third armies, it's about my primary army, the Dark Angels.

As I work my way through a second company of Dark Angels, I've now completed a Devastator detachments. Nothing special here, some green space marines and their rhinos.

So I've been promising to do a review on the A-Case (formerly Feldmaster) for months now, but various things have gotten in the way, so now I can shill it on my new blog!

I picked up the A-Case (http://army-case.com/) for my epic armies. I wanted something that was reasonably small and had magnetic trays. And to top it off, I am way to lazy to build something myself. I had seen their indiegogo campaign shared somewhere, maybe Facebook or Bell of Lost Souls, and bookmarked it and forgotten about it.  Getting a case for my epic was on a backburner. Then I took everything to an event in the tacklebox set up I had only to see how much my models were smashing around on each other. After that, I began seriously researching magnetic tray carrying cases. It came down to this and the Tablewar small case. I went with the A-Case for two reasons: I dislike hard cases and the Tabelwar tray system required more effort to think about that I wanted to deal with (like I said, I'm lazy!).

First thing to mention, I ordered this on a Sunday, mid afternoon EST. The owner responded almost immediately. I'm not sure the exact time difference, but it was way later than any normal person should be working on a Sunday night. It arrived from Poland to the USA by Wednesday. I can't get domestic mail delivered that quickly! In other words, the customer service is great.

Once it arrived, I was able to assemble it pretty quickly, it has a neat system where the metal frame goes together without any fasteners, it's held together by the bag (I'm an engineer, I nerd out for stuff like that). Once assembled, the models are simply placed on the metal tray and stay with magnets in their bases. Pretty simple.

There are several videos already online showing people doing dangerous things with their cases to show how sturdy it is. I'm not doing that. I trust the case, but I am still not willing to risk damaging my models! If you want to see those, they're not hard to find. But, I did take pictures of all the epic models I can fit into it.

Here is the case, fully loaded:
