Well, It's finally here. When I covered BPRE 28mm back in November 2021, I said to myself that I wouldn't pick up the big game box until the OPFOR side had figures. Well, jump forward to May and the bad guys have now have some figures, more money has gone to support BPRE, HMRC/Parcelforce got … Continue reading A Contract in Awbari – The Unboxing
SITREP: Butcher Witch
A Butcher Witch? Yeah I've heard of them. Looking for signs and portents in the entrails of slaughtered cows and pigs, using blood and organ as fuel for their magics. Frankly, it's a wonder the Church of the Empress hasn't locked them all up, but the Butcher Witches as an order are much more careful … Continue reading SITREP: Butcher Witch
SITREP: Dogs of War Part 1
We joined a mercenary company operating out of Ferrumgard due our trip out to the Marches. I was surprised to find them clad in Imperial Colours and luckily they were loyal servants to the Empress rather than sim. Well armed and well equipped, they proved to be very useful on the road ahead.Scribe Feldherr, Imperial … Continue reading SITREP: Dogs of War Part 1
SITREP: Bobbies, Baddies and Bootnecks from Anthalonica
Way back in April 2021, Anthalonica Wargaming managed to fund a Kickstarter called Bobbies, Baddies and Bootnecks. Designed to rapidly expand the offerings of Anthalonica from the initial release focused on British Police, the Kickstarter offered up 4 squad packs as the starting point before broadening out into a whole HOST of new additions. Ranging from French … Continue reading SITREP: Bobbies, Baddies and Bootnecks from Anthalonica
April 2022 Update
April is over and it's now time to catch up on what's I've been doing. A pretty good month actually, I managed to get a fair amount done! COLLECTING Shockingly, I continue on my "not buying physical models" spree, mostly because I'm just printing them instead. That said, a friend of mine and I did … Continue reading April 2022 Update
Range Impressions: Courage In Contact
Welcoming a new range to the world of Ultramodern Wargaming is always fun, getting to take a look at new models, new styles and really dig into them. Alan from White Dragon Miniatures, a scrappy new company from Nottingham, very kindly sent me a pack of goodies. Contained within was a selection of models from … Continue reading Range Impressions: Courage In Contact
SITREP: … And Tiny Titans
Previously on... Charge strays further from the 28mm light I assembled some buildings in preparation for a game of tiny machines of war Now, it should be said that my former housemate is someone who has managed to avoid ever collecting mainline Games Workshop, instead preferring to jump into the specialist games (such as his … Continue reading SITREP: … And Tiny Titans
SITREP: Tiny Buildings…
With a company day off on Friday, I was able to arrange an evening of wargaming and food with my former housemate (who now lives relatively close that really, I should be playing more games with him). After some discussions, we decided it was time for him to get his Adeptus Titanicus collection out for … Continue reading SITREP: Tiny Buildings…
SITREP: A Little bit of Playtesting
Thanks to the Easter break, my Dastardly regular opponent found himself with some free time on a Tuesday evening. Which for me meant it was time to finally get some playtesting of my fantasy rules in. I've mentioned them a little bit but this was the first time we actually got it onto a board, … Continue reading SITREP: A Little bit of Playtesting
3d Printing – 16 Months and a Saturn later
In December 2020 I got my first 3D printer, the Elegoo Mars Pro and so began the trip into the 3d printing. I've written about it a few times before over the last year, as well as showing off some more models I've been working on that have been printed out at home. I've even … Continue reading 3d Printing – 16 Months and a Saturn later
A Little Bit of Sharp Practise
Having been working like a mad person, I decided to actually take the easter bank holidays off this year. And so, as is tradition, I messaged my Dastardly Regular opponent to request a scuffle/setup a game. After a misunderstanding of days and me declining to run an Ultramoderns game (the rules still being WIP), I … Continue reading A Little Bit of Sharp Practise
SITREP: Faceless King
Another 3d printed model - this time from Vae Victis. I spotted this "Evil Paladin" among the special characters included in the Match release and just had to get to work on him. With the mask and crown, I was strongly inspired by both the Leper from Darkest Dungeon and Baldwin from Kingdom of Heaven. … Continue reading SITREP: Faceless King
SITREP: Bazi Counter-Espionage Team
Another set of models finished, another set I'm really excited to write about! These guys are 3d printed figures made using two of Combat Octopus's kits - the bodies are from the Eastern European Criminal set with some heads from the MENA Civilians release. After printing on the Elegoo Saturn at 0.03mm, I ended up … Continue reading SITREP: Bazi Counter-Espionage Team
SITREP: Aftermath Team
After having had them sat in the "to be painted" trays for a while, I finally pulled out the Aftermath team from Spectre. I will admit, this is a team that I bought, looked at and went "What a nice team, no idea what I'll do with them". However, I felt in the mood for … Continue reading SITREP: Aftermath Team
March 2022 Update
Oh boy, that time again. So you may have noticed March was a little bit quiet. Going to admit, I'm not having the easiest time at the moment in the old head box - finding it really hard to just sit down and focus on things in general so hobby stuff falls slightly down priority … Continue reading March 2022 Update
