Flames of War – East of Bastogne (Scenario 2)
I’m looking forward to game two of this mini campaign. The last game was somewhat of a stalemate with the Germans slowly pushing the American paratroopers back towards Bizory. That game was set on the evening of the 20th December … Continue reading
Flames of War – East of Bastogne
Some games revolve around a single dice role. This was one of those games. After writing this scenario I stumbled upon an excellent blog post about the fighting of the Second Battalion 501st PIR at Bizory, Belgium in December 1944 … Continue reading

Second-hand Artillery
I love the painting element of this hobby and the idea of buying models that have already been painting generally doesn’t appeal to me. My FLGS (Gamers World) buys and sells second-hand models and recently there was some German WWII … Continue reading
Malifaux: Angel of Justice (WIP; Video)

Thought I’d share a little something I’ve been working on over Christmas – I like the concept of the Lady Justice Avatar, but not the model. The pose looks awkward. However, the battle between Ram and Crow is pretty cool. … Continue reading
