  • SITREP – Game Prep

    Oh boy. So as with every game planning, I left it far latter than I should have done. But, I should be able to get it all done. Because I’m a mad man who likes writing his own worlds, I decided that this game will be the first game out using my Chaos Warriors. Looking…

  • SITREP – Big Fantasy Warriors Time

    Aside from finishing off massive impression pieces, hobby time has mostly been focused on Fantasy figures. Mostly Games Workshop’s Chaos range. I am well on the way with the limited edition Chaos Warrior that turned up on the weekend (and then I immediately modified). Took me a little bit to remember how I painted the…

  • SITREP – And now for something, Completely Different

    I just wanted to shout out to everyone reading along with these posts (I’m seeing the pleasing bump in my stats) – I’m having a really fun time writing semi-regular updates and it’s much more fun than throwing together a tweet. One little change to them going forward, I’m going to be setting them to…

  • SITREP โ€“ Operation Jann Strike Prep Pt.3 – A Pause

    Time for a slight change of plan – I’m sadly not running this game this weekend. Due to a few factors, I haven’t had time to get things together for the game (or even write up the scenario) so I asked my friend if we could put a raincheck on it. Hopefully we’ll run it…

  • SITREP โ€“ Operation Jann Strike Prep Pt.2

    Okay, not as much progress as I should have done because of work shenanigans but I did assembled the hell cannons onto bases and get all my infantry undercoated. As you can see, I’ve split them into four bases. For the ammo, I was going to pile them on a sheet but realised that would…

  • SITREP – Operation Jann Strike Prep Pt.1

    My next wargaming scenario is being run on Sunday afternoon – two lots of regulars from different nations moving into an insurgent held area to remove the threat. I’ve actually worked out the scenario now, including the objectives and traps I’m going to throw in my way. And now, I just have to get everything…

  • SITREP – Unleash GROM Pt.2

    There he is – GROM is finished. Well mostly finished – I still need to paint up his base in some rust colours and add some final highlights but I’d be happy enough to put this guy on the board. I’m very excited about getting this guy on the board – the figure came out…

  • SITREP – Unleash GROM Pt.1

    This weekend is another Necromunda weekend, where I’ll be heading northwards with my enforcer band. However, before i go I need some addition firepower assembled and painted. After all, I did have a heavy bolter in the stash. Assembled a few weeks ago, I finally got him undercoated and began the painting. He’s still a…

  • SITREP – Initial Play of Black Powder Red Earth 28mm

    In shocking news, I’m reporting on a monthly game against my Dastardly Regular Opponent without going into a full battle report (you’ll have to wait until the end of the month for that). Instead, we were giving Black Powder Red Earth 28mm a go. Not going to go into too much detail on it (that’s…

  • 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…

  • 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…
