Adventures in Wargaming

Month: July 2024

  • SITREP: Digital Kitbashing with Combat Octopus

    As you might have seen in the past, I’m a huge fan of Combat Octopus‘s modular figures for Ultramodern Wargaming. Each month you get a set of four figures, each split into multiple pieces (usually head, torso, legs and arms) and with multiple weapon options per pose. For example, the image below shows one of…

  • The News Stand: 29/07/2024

    …. I got nothing No fancy intro, lots of news from all the usual folk, I’m off to play the latest Ready or Not update. As always, thanks to the News Fans and other patrons over on the ChargeBlog patreon for buying my time to make this wrap-up each week. If you like these roundups…

  • The Week In ChargeBlog: 28/07/2024

    This week hasn’t actually seen much hobbying unfortunately. Work has been busy, a few games got new updates (such as Ready or Not) that had me spending some time playing games – I’m sure I could class engaging the cartel with Flux Raiders as researching BPRE28mm tactics, but in reality, it was just some time…

  • The News Stand: 22/07/2024

    This week is a bit quieter, the month rolling on as we enter the final full week. However, we still have news from a few familiar faces, including some very cool items coming soon! Read on for more about what’s around for Ultramodern Gaming! As always, thanks to the News Fans and other patrons over…

  • The Week In ChargeBlog: 21/07/2024

    This week was the final one (hopefully) spent rebuilding the various parts of my network infrastructure in my house. Media serving boxes, the backup machine, swapping drives, recovering data, replacing RAM… and all I wanted to do was just sit down, do some hobbies and paint some minis. Alas, I didn’t escape the technical work…

  • ChargeReal Lore Drop: Task Force Volk and The Samory

    The ChargeReal Research team has been in the depths this month on the Zanvult Insurrection. However, as part of their work looking at Mercenaries in the world of the ChargeReal (the full post is available for the ChargeReal Researchers tier) they have managed to uncover some additional information on two of the mercenary groups that…

  • The News Stand: 15/07/2024

    Hey, remember how last week’s edition was really short? Well it turns out everyone was just holding stuff back to pack this week’s edition to the brim. We’ve got updates across the board, from Spectre to White Dragon Miniatures to Combat Octopus and more! As always, thanks to the News Fans and other patrons over…

  • The Week In ChargeBlog: 14/07/2024

    Editor note – there are currently 9 draft SITREP posts sat on the blog. The idea behind SITREPs was originally to write them as fast as possible and get them out, keeping the blog humming along and mapping my own hobby work to posts. The problem is that I take way too long to write…

  • The News Stand: 08/07/2024

    A quieter one this week (I assume last week’s US holiday and UK general election/England football wins are distracting everyone) but good news – there are still enough updates to deliver a News Stand and fill the top image (always the most important part!) Read on for details from Spectre, BobMack3d, Combat Octopus and Modern…

  • SITREP: Remastering The Criminal Heavies

    Last week Spectre released three sets of figures that seemed familiar but different. Taking the original 3D sculpts of the Aftermath Killteam, the Agents QRF and the Criminal Heavies and polishing them up after several years of improvements and planning (as well as changing from metal production to resin allowing for some adjustment). I never…

  • Last Chance for Gunslinger Print-On-Demand from Desk-Ops

    All good things must come to an end sadly. In this case, the 31st of July will see the end of the distribution of Print-On-Demand Gunslinger 2030 models by friend of the site Dan and his store Desk-Ops, as the agreement expires and Flytrap Factory take over production directly. However, as one final celebration of…
