  • The News Stand: 26/11/2025

    With a little delay for technical reasons (and also because of the multiple bits of news I noticed were dropping today), it’s time for the Black Friday edition of The News Stand! This edition is packed full of new releases, previews, Kickstarters and more!

  • The News Stand: 18/11/2025

    New week, new edition of The News Stand. I managed to peel myself away from rounds of Breakthrough in Battlefield 6 to grab this week’s collection of previews, Kickstarter updates and more from all corners of the Ultramodern Wargaming World. Read on for more!

  • The News Stand: 11/11/2025

    Today is Remembrance Day (or Veterans’ Day, depending on whereabouts you are). It can feel strange writing about wargaming on such a day, but that doesn’t stop the fact that wargaming is one of the ways to understand the sacrifices of the past. This week’s edition of the News Stand covers a wide variety of…

    We’re into November and the weather is getting increasingly grim. Now is the season to break out the paints, settle down in a comfortable chair and focus on painting up all those figures you’ve been collecting. Or, slightly easier, sitting down with this week’s edition of The News Stand to get all the latest news,…

  • The News Stand: 28/10/2025

    This week’s post might be a little on the brisk side, as I’m in the middle of a busy time at work. However, that doesn’t stop me from bringing the news in the Spookiest of seasons, and it seems a few of the usual companies are in the right mood for it.

  • The News Stand: 21/10/2025

    Yesterday, I said something I regretted. I was looking at the news and going “huh, a bit quiet this week”. I should have learned by now. Stand by for a packed edition of the News Stand, featuring news, previews and more!

  • The News Stand: 14/10/2025

    Well, after an unplanned delay from last week due to a traffic incident (I’m okay, my car’s side door is less so), we’re now back with a Bumper Edition of the News Stand. Two weeks of news means double the releases, previews, updates and more! Oh, and the Kickstarters. So many Kickstarters.

  • The News Stand: 30/09/2025

    We’re at the end of September, and it’s time for a wrap-up. I think this is the shortest News Stand I’ve done for a while, but the quality bar remains pretty high. We have Spectre, BobMack3D, Echo Dark Studios and Modern Miniatures bringing all we need to keep things exciting.

  • The News Stand: 23/09/2025

    We’re reaching the end of September, and this week is a little bit quiet. However, quiet doesn’t mean dead – we’ve got updates from Spectre, Austin Miniatures, BobMack3d, Flank March Miniatures, Miska Miniatures, Combat Octopus AND Wargames Atlantic. Heck, we even have a sale from Desk-Ops, just to give you plenty to play with. Read…

  • The News Stand: 16/09/2025

    We had our first proper Autumn weekend (complete with pouring rain and high winds), meaning it’s time – welcome to hobby season! The good news is that the Ultramodern community has been hard at work giving us things to play with when it’s too wet to go outside. Stalkers for the zone, Cuban soldiers for…

  • The News Stand: 09/09/2025

    You thought I was stopping at Edition 100? Nope, we’re keeping this train going until I run out of figures or get REALLY into some other hobby. This week on The News Stand, we’re back with releases, previews and more, from all your favourite Ultramodern Wargaming creators. Read on for more!

  • The News Stand: 02/09/2025

    Well, here we are – Edition 100 of The News Stand. 100 editions of bringing all the latest news from the Ultramodern Wargaming space direct to you, the reader. Every week (minus a few breaks for Christmas, Holidays and the day job), we’ve seen some incredible releases from a whole host of suppliers to help…

  • The News Stand: 26/08/2025

    It’s the last News Stand of the summer, as by the time we next talk, it will be September. As you might expect from the last News Stand of the month, we have plenty of previews and releases. Kickstarters coming, Patreons being prepared, all the latest and greatest for Ultramodern Wargaming.

  • The News Stand: 19/08/2025

    Oh goody! This week, I get to talk about real-world distribution issues. However, it is balanced out by the fact that we have great updates from Spectre, Austin Miniatures, Combat Octopus, SEN Games and White Dragon Miniatures! Read on for all the details.

  • The News Stand: 12/08/2025

    We are into August, and that means things are heating up both outside and in the news space. We’ve got the final house of the USMC Kickstarter, we’ve got releases, previews and more. We even have the first hints for some hard plastic figures coming to the Ultramodern space. Read on for more!
