New Scenario Release
Remember the battle report for a scenario called Training Day? It’s one of my favourite games to write and play. Well, I’ve updated the mission, added it to the ChargeReal and created a version for Spectre Operations. Even better, I have released it for free on my Patreon – 30+ pages of background information, faction…

SITREP – Right Tool for the Job
Over the weekend, I took a look at my tank turrets and realised that I had to do something to make them spin more freely in the turret slot. Ignoring the sensible advice to reprint them 1% less in future, I realised that maybe I should be using the dremel I got for chopping plastic…

SITREP – Yet Another Bazi SF Team
Taking a break from scenario work, I decided to start painting up the Spectre’s Criminal Heavies. As my collection is much more focused on the military side rather than the law enforcement, I’d always planned for them to be some kind of Special Forces team. I hadn’t nailed it down but after thinking about the…

SITREP – Patreon Scenarios
One of the perks I’m offering to the backers of my Patreon is access to the scenario files of Battle Reports going forward. I spend a lot of time writing each one, especially when I was playing at the club and wanted each player to feel like they were controlling a proper force, rather than…

Impressions: Spectre’s Covert/Overt Figures
IT HAS BEEN 10,000 YEARS! Okay well actually more like four since I first heard (over several glasses of beer in the Fox at the Excel) someone saying the magic words for the first time. “What if there were figures that came as both covert and overt versions so you can toggle between them during…

October 2021 Project Update
October was a busy month between work and playing in a Necromunda campaign (and the return of Escape from Tarkov to steal my late night gaming time) which left barely any time or motivation for painting. But on the plus side, I did only buy a few tiny extra pieces… Project 365 Lets take a…

SITREP – HEADS… And More Enforcer Work
Over the past few months of Anvil Patreon subscribing, I have a collection of Anvil parts that are just begging to be used. The problem comes with when I’m kit bashing, I usually don’t want to wait for the printing to finish as it interrupts my inspiration. Luckily, I have a solution! Print off a…

SITREP – Emirate of Bazistan Infantry Forces
Taking advantage of Combat Octopus’s latest releases, I’ve started assembling my Bazi Emirati forces. My pitch for these guys (and Bazi Empire as a whole) is that they are a Middle Eastern force that isn’t just Russian Forces but more ragged. For this reason, the new Indian Army guys actually work out very nicely –…

SITREP – Let’s ROCK
One thing I learned from my weekend of Necromunda I just how good a little bit of firepower can be. Since doing rather well in the first game’s trading post visit (hitting a rarity of 13), I’ve had a heavy bolter and suspensor waiting to be used. Of course, there is a problem – the…

ChargeBlog Patreon
I’ve restarted the ChargeBlog Patreon to act as a reoccurring tip jar for anyone wanting to support the blog. Ko-fi has worked okay in the past but with a Patreon, it allows for a little more back and forth, gathering a bit more info into what people are interested in. I go into more details…

SITREP – Whole lot of Necromunda and a Little Tank
Oh boy, that was a lot of Necromunda. Two of my friends from University, along with the Regular Necromunda Opponent and his sneaky boys, decided to spend roughly 24 hours in my house to get in three games of Games Workshop’s Underhive skirmish game as part of our current campaign. It was a really fun…
-
SITREP – Heavy Metal and a Fresh Coat of Paint
And there we are – after a total of 35 hours of printing I have a completed Atlay Tank. The massive time was due to a print error on my first print, a chunk missing from one side of the turret that could be possibly fixed with putty. Now I have it in hand, I’ll…

SITREP – That’s a Big Tank
I’ve been busy with some work things and writing up some Necromunda stuff (especially as I’m playing more this weekend). But, after a few chats (as well as thinking about possible future plans) I decided it was time to do some more experimenting with the 3d printer. My Mars Pro has a printing volume of…

SITREP – Necromunda Day!
Oh boy a full on day of Necromunda. Managed to shuffle some plans around so ended up against the Delaque for two different games. But first, I got my Hired guns painted up – and just in time! They came in very handy during the game day. I didn’t manage to finish off the civilians…

SITREP – Painted Hive Scum
First three mostly done (aside from the base detail), three more well on the way. Should have enough time before game on tomorrow to finish off them and get the civilians and loot markers painted up. Today was a bit of a shitty one in terms of headspace and sleep, so actually getting some figures…
