SITREP: The Regular Opponents Try Warcry
One major advantage of moving back to Leeds was putting me back in range of my university friends, many of whom have appeared on this blog as what I have jokingly called the Regular Opponents. We have the Creative (the man of big gaming rooms, too much Napoleonics and my 3d printing sensei), we have…

Gunslinger Release: January 2024 โ Raptor Diagnostics Field Operations Team
Smoke from the crash site could be seen from a mile away as the two SUVs swerved through Damascusโs early afternoon traffic. While the drivers concentrate on the road, the teamโs technician begins downloading briefing packets to the team, sending directly to their heads-up displays in their glasses and handheld tactical units to store them.…

The News Stand: 22/01/2024
When I started writing this post, I was about to say it was a quiet week. Wrong, there is a actually a whole chunk of stuff! The preview bucket is overflowing, all ready to give you inspiration before they release. So read on and get inspired! As always, thanks to the News Fans and other…

SITREP: How To FDM A City
I bought a replacement FDM printer back in September last year after seeing the Neptune 4 on a good deal. The previous printer (an Ender 5 Pro) worked but time has moved on and the Neptune on paper was such a huge step up, that it just made sense. So it’s strangely odd that this…

SITREP: Warcry and Other Fantastical Things
I think most wargamers, even historical ones who claim they want nothing to do with things outside of history books, find themselves having to decide if they prefer fantasy or sci-fi. The two aren’t mutually exclusive, it’s easy enough to enjoy the two side by side, but deep down, everyone has a preference for the…

The News Stand: 15/01/2024
Halfway through the month, and it’s felt like a warzone already! Or maybe it’s just because today is my first day back at the day job. This week kicks off strong with a brand new game on pre-order, details of what’s coming up from Echelon AND the ever-continuing stream of Patreon updates. Oh yeah, and…

SITREP: New Year, New Club
I’ve been in Leeds since February 2020 and despite this city having multiple wargames clubs, I’ve only just managed to get my ass to one. The Leeds Wargames Club (those guys who run Fiasco every year including when I demo’d Dragon’s Hoard back in the day) are based out of Hicks Hall in the Burley…

The News Stand: 08/01/2024
First up, it’s my birthday today! So I’m very glad that as a present every company spent the last few weeks of just HAMMERING out news stories and updates all ready to make sure this is the bumper post to kick off the new year. So let’s get into it! As always, thanks to the…

SITREP: Behind the Scenes Updates
Not every improvement I’m making this year is just about the figures I’m painting or the games I’m playing. I had planned to do some tweaks about how I present the figures I have and how I store them but through the process, I have actually managed to go a step beyond and open up…

SITREP: Elf Fighter – Vae Victis
Start as you mean to go on, or so they say. Feeling the general burnout of the Christmas season, I decided to take advantage of being an adult and instead (after apologising to my former housemate up in Middlesbrough and forgoing New Year shawarma) celebrate New Year’s Eve quietly, watching good films and sitting down…
