  • Wargaming Week 23/10/2017

    Wargaming Week 23/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 16th through to the 22st of October. BLOG STUFF This week’s post looked into the last set of Spectre Releases. From looking at the stats, these posts also do really well. Expect one every month if I pick the releases up. GAMING No gaming –  I had planned to go to the wargames club on Thursday but I ended up missing it due to work. Ah well, just have to make sure I get there for next week (especially as I’m running it). PURCHASES Nothing new was purchased this week but a few things arrived. First up,…

  • Impressions: Spectre’s September Releases

    Impressions: Spectre’s September Releases

    September saw a pretty big set of releases for Spectre. With 5 separate sets covering a selection of collections, there really was something in it for everyone. More importantly, it added some more female figures and filled some capability gaps.  Tier 1 Operator – Delta   We start with a new Tier 1 Operator. She looks just like her male counterparts, with SIG MCX, silenced pistol and fast mag equipped battle belt. She fits perfectly into the rest of the range and provides some variety to the squad. I’ve painted her up to match the rest of my Argo contractors…

    Wargaming Week 16/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 9th of October through to the 15th of October. BLOG STUFF My article on Tiny Terrain’s recent releases is now out. Nice figures, but not exactly the style I like. However, I’m still excited to see what comes out from them next – I’m keeping a close eye on the current kickstarter. Speaking of upcoming posts, I think I’ve worked out what I’m doing for the Modern Wargames comparison post. Looking at the rulesets left available to me, I’m going to split this into two parts. Part Two is looking at modern day focused rules while Part…

    Initial Impressions: Tiny Terrain’s Figures

    So far most of this blog has been filled with models from Empress, Eureka and Spectre. Today however, I’m going to take a look at Tiny Terrain’s current offerings – in particular his law enforcement pack (that was released a few weeks ago)and the two man JTAC team released earlier this year. This is just a small selection from the range, that seeks to cover some figures not normally seen. Based on reading around, these figures are sculpted by Phil Lewis, formerly of Games Workshop fame. In regards to customer service, its excellent for such a small operation. I ended…

  • Wargaming Week 09/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 2nd of October through to the 8th of October. BLOG STUFF Last week’s post was looking into Spectre’s unreleased stuff. It was a fun piece to write and has lead me to write a companion piece looking at rare items Spectre has released over the years. It also meant I got to write some posts that didn’t need painted figures for. GAMING Nothing. PURCHASES Nope, nothing here. I am looking at a few scatter items to liven up the demo board. HOBBY Sadly most of my hobby time this week was split between finishing off some…

  • Spectre Miniatures Unreleased Models: October 2017

    Spectre Miniatures Unreleased Models: October 2017

    As you may have seen based on the posts, I really like Spectre Miniatures. They make a great set of rules and make some of the coolest figures available to the modern gamer. Another thing that particularly good about them is how often they post up some previews and show the world what is coming out, fresh from the workbench. Most of these previewed products are released soon after they are shown but amongst them there are a few figures hiding out, biding their time. In this post, we’re going to take a quick look at some of these. The…

    Wargaming Week 02/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 25th of September through to the 1st of October. BLOG STUFF Last weeks post was on the AAR for 100 Years of War! It was a really fun time and incredible fulfilling to get the game out and for people to play. But, there are still things to work before its first showing at Fiasco.   If you’ve been enjoying the blog, I’ve set up a way to donate via Ko-Fi page to make things easy. I’m really enjoying writing all these blogs and getting some great feedback on my Impressions pieces. A few quid helps to…
