  • Post-Salute Planning: 2025

    Phew, okayโ€”I’ve mostly recovered from Salute. This year was definitely one of the more exciting ones, and I actually was there for the vast majority of the show, which is unusual for me. Again, I want to thank Brad Sanders for inviting me down, introducing me to folks as an expert hype man, and giving…

  • The News Stand: 15/04/2025

    I’m glad that this week everyone seems to have the Post-Salute hangover with everyone being on the quieter side. However, that doesn’t mean it’s silent – we’ve got updates from Spectre, Echo Dark Studios, Combat Octopus and more. Also, a friend of the blog is back!

  • The News Stand: 08/04/2025

    It’s Salute week, which means a whole of of people giving out four-digit combinations of letters and numbers to tell you where to spend your hard-earned cash on Saturday.

  • SITREP: The Streets of Al-Bawaaba Begin

    With the Old World taking a pause post-games day (read all about it here) we’re returning to the Ultramoderns. However, before we can hit the table and get Project Elements on the road, we’re going to need a table to fight over. After years of never getting them textured and painted up, I sold most…

  • The News Stand: 18/03/2025

    The waves of Ultramodern releases ebb and flow like the tide BUT that doesn’t mean when the tide is out, there isn’t something exciting to look into. This week has updates from Spectre, Combat Octopus, Austin Miniatures and more!

  • Combat Geometry: The Big Week

    In the last few days, it’s been very Old World-y around here. The reason of course is The Ides of Marc, an Old World event that my group of friends (including the Regular Opponents) arranged at the start of the year. You’ve seen a few updates on the journey since the start of the year…
