  • News – Sourcebook Patreon

    Well, it’s time to kick this project off. For the last three years, I’ve been busy working on crafting wargames scenarios and systems for ultramodern wargaming.

  • Impressions: Spectre Miniatures Drone Systems

    Ultramodern war, especially in the last few years, has been marked with several iconic items. MRAPs, quad eye NVGS, the list of equipment that screams out this current time period. But I think the one that a lot of people think of has to be the unmaned vehicles. Be it an off the shelf quad…
