New Year, New Campaign. This time around we’re playing a 5-game ANNIHILATION campaign. Here’s the battle report for the first game – We haven’t quite figured out the fluffy context for the campaign yet, but something to do with the Circle Orboros forces trying to cut the movement of supplies north, thus isolating the Legion [...]

After Action Report This game is set just before dawn on the 21st December 1944, just on the northern edge of Bizory, near Bastogne. The German’s are pressing their attack which started the night before. Dog company from 2nd Battalion 501st PIR have moved forward in an attempt to prevent the enemy advance. This photo [...]

I started this model before Christmas and got the horse done pretty quickly. I only finished Alexia yesterday. This is an easy model to paint. I had planned to paint if for Paint it Pink, but I ran short on time. I also abandoned pink as a colour. Alexia doesn’t strike me as a girly [...]

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 1944. This game is set at daybreak early on the following day. TERRAIN This scenario [...]

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 and January 1945. I decided to base the game on the events of the 20th [...]

I’m really enjoying painting these now. Here’s the Convict Gunslinger, Lady J and a Silurid. Owen

In December 1944 Hitler launched his last offensive, but it was more than Bradley or anyone else expected. Four German armies converged on the densely wooded Ardennes, which at the time only [...]

I’ve enjoyed painting these. The colours are so bright and vibrant, it makes a real change from how I usually paint. These are five of the ‘demo’ models used in the intro games described in the Pattern Book. From top to bottom, left to right – Seamus, Ronin, Rotten Belle, Punk Zombie and Razorworm. Until [...]

Kallus had flawless eyesight. He was sure he was the first of his army to spot the mechanika abominations across the other side of the burning village. Even the eyeless beasts under his command had not perceived the rapid advance of the Cryxian helljacks yet. Kallus had not spotted what was commanding them, but there [...]

I really enjoyed working on this model. I first came up with the idea around the time of GenCon 2011 when Wyrd had their online sale (I picked up the alternative sculpt of Lady Justice and the Dead Justice crew). I’m really happy with how it turned out. The base was pretty easy to build [...]
