  • The News Stand: 28/04/2024

    This week, the news returns with a vengeance – new releases from Empress, Kickstarters, previews and more! Read on for more!

  • SITREP: A Matter of Scale

    I’ve been into Ultramodern Wargaming for almost 10 years at this point, from the first figures ordered in a Dundee student flat to running this blog and spending a lot of time talking, writing, painting, playing and thinking about wargaming. That’s a lot of time to gather a lot of rules, a lot of scenery…

  • The News Stand: 22/04/2024

    New updates this week from across the spectrum of Ultramodern Wargaming. Scenarios from Spectre, Vehicles from Miska, Cool Operators from Combat Octopus and Scenery from Urban Scatter Gaming. What’s not to like? As always, thanks to the News Fans and other patrons over on the ChargeBlog patreon for buying my time to make this wrap-up…

  • Combat Geometry

    Listen, I am on record of disliking Combat Geometry.

  • SITREP: Stumbling Through Blender

    As you may have seen, I have a 3D printer (I’ve talked a little bit about it). Since I got my first printer back in December 2020, I’ve been printing with STL files produced by other people – something glorious about having the printer at the beck and call is the fact there are so…

  • The News Stand: 08/04/2024

    April has well and truly begun, complete with our first April showers (I’m writing this as a storm pelts the window). But that doesn’t mean we don’t have a pile of new updates from the world of Ultramodern Gaming – as well as a few other things that had to be included. It appears to…

  • The News Stand: 01/04/2024

    As much as I wanted to start this week’s News Stand with an April Fools, Warlord Games frankly went over the top with the sheer number of them. Instead, I can promise you a post without a single fake entry, instead bringing you a pile of new releases, previews and more! As always, thanks to…
