Unexpected Acquisitions

My wife and I stopped in at Harlequin Hobbies, my friendly local game store (there's something like 40+ game stores of various stripes in my county, including two that are, on a cool day, within walking distance of my house. Due to niche partitioning amongst game stores in order to not overly compete in a limited ecosystem, not every store is going to stock things I want to buy, but Harlequin is very much a wargamer's game store) on our way to try a new Vietnamese restaurant today.

I swear, I had every intention of only going in to buy a few paints and maybe a new brush. 

We walked down the aisle that has all the non-Games Workshop terrain kits and prepainted sets (I wanted to see if they had more hills for when payday comes around later this week), and Gina pulls a box off the shelf.

"Would these work for you for Devilry Afoot?" she asked.

Why yes, yes I do believe they would. 

I balked a little bit at the $40 price tag, but Gina waved off any such objections, announcing she'd buy it for me, and insisted she cover my paints as well this trip. 

Yes, you're right, I am a very lucky man who married out of his league. You best believe I'm always deeply mindful of that fact. 

Our anniversary is coming up, and I'd already put some scatter terrain for Devilry Afoot on my Wishlist for her to shop from; and knowing her, this isn't going to detract from what else she plans to get me gift-wise. With figures for the game already on their way, I think my next step is going to be sourcing some actual buildings! 

Do I count the cows and farmer towards my tracker for the year?
