Trollblood Battlegroup Unboxed!

As I said last week I have a new Warmachine/Hordes project and I'm kicking off by unboxing the new Trollblood battlegroup!

Tabletop Cygnar

This week I've been trying to finish off the last few unpainted models I had in my Cygnar army..

Unboxing the Mk3 Retribution of Scyrah Battlegroup

The new edition of Warmachine has been around for a little while now so I thought it was about time I unboxed the new Retribution of Scyrah Battlegroup set. All of the new Warmachine & Hordes sets are fully plastic, with each set's plastic colour coded by faction. As you might guess, the models in the Retribution set are an off-white colour.

The Collection - A Tale of Resin, Metal and "Ooh, Shiny"

I've gained a reputation in some forums for having what some call "an addiction". I just like to think of it as I collect miniatures. I was recently challenged to take pictures of everything I've acquired. To narrow this down, I've gone just for the pictures of things that are either Work In Progress, Built or Still Boxed - Nothing finished at all.

Basius 2 From Wargames Bakery - Getting Started and the Projects to Come

They're here at last! Earlier this week I got to experience the rush that you get when you find a box of Kickstarter goodies waiting for you. In this instance, it was two large resin squares from Wargames Bakery. Well actually, it was two of their new Basius 2 basing mold pads from their Kickstarter that was run between September and October last year. After a few delays, they were all delivered to Mantic last week, and shipped out this week. 

Unboxing the Retribution of Scyrah All In One Army Box

As promised on our Facebook page when it arrived, here is an unboxing of the recently released All In One Army Box for Retribution of Scyrah from Privateer Press. Inside it is a full 35 point army consisting of 1 Warcaster, 2 Warjacks, 2 units of troops, a troop command unit and 3 solos.

It is described as a limited release box aimed at either new players or veterans wanting to start a new faction, so it won't be around forever. I picked up mine from Element Games for just under £90.

Getting Warmachine Ready

A few years back, when I only bought stuff from Games Workshop, I learnt about a game called Warmachine that existed, but wasn't produced by Games Workshop. Teenage me then went and bought more Space Marines, deciding that since it wasn't GW, it wouldn't be worth it as people around me didn't play. Plus, at the time, nothing screamed out to my "ooh shiny" syndrome and demanded purchasing.

Fast forward a few years and I became aware of the Retribution of Scyrah faction. Part of me went "oh cool, elves. I like elves." Another part of me said "I have nobody to play against, and they would take away spending from my armies I could be playing. I'll pass."

Zip forward through time to the present day and I'm getting ready to eat my words.

Project Decision Time - Help Me Choose What Comes Next

I'm getting towards the end of my current miniature and I'm trying to work out what project to sink my teeth in to next.

Over the last month I've been attending a new gaming club that started up in town, so I want to try and return my focus to painting for gaming rather than painting for painting. The club is only small at the moment, and it's an even split of miniatures and Magic, so what I want to do is get some small warbands/armies built and painted for a few systems to be able to run demo games and get people into things if they aren't already, or to be able to pick up games with others who already run one of these systems.
