I was tempted to call this post “Wyshnalyrr and I”… Anyway, I painted this guy for September’s Paint the Target (G’Day Bloke was good enough to include it, despite my late submission). I undercoated him white and then used washed to colour him. Quick and easy and the result is passable! October’s challenge is to [...]

Running the tournament yesterday was a pleasure – 16 enthusiastic and skilled players turned up and played four very competitive games each. Every game was played in a spirit of camaraderie and any questions I had to answer were genuine rules queries – the players made my job easy. I first advertised the tournament about [...]

The year of the campaign continues. Peter and I have been playing a bit of Flames of War recently, so we decided to give the Infantry Aces campaign (from Cassino) a try. In the past I’ve fielded elite armies, so for this campaign I decided to field some ordinary Grenadiers from the Hoch und Deutschmeister [...]

I only flew back from Italy earlier today, so instead of playing the final 50pt game of the campaign Phil and I played a small 15pt battle that pitted pKaya against Rhyas. It was a fun game… Enjoy! Owen

I love painting miniatures and in particular I love the spectacle of a fully painted army. I’ve had the pleasure of facing Tomek’s sublimely beautiful armies on a couple of occasions and not only were the games fun, but they were also stunning to behold. Tomek has been painting for over 15 years and this [...]

I painted these guys ageas ago, but never really got around to photographing them for the blog. Paul and I played a campaign game last week and I took the opportunity to do up a quick video of this 1500pt force. Owen

This it the third game of four in our Annihilation in the Rustwood campaign. I’ve managed to win the last two (reports here and here), but things could get tricky this time out as Phil already has a good idea what my Absylonia Tier 4 force is capable of. I’m using Absylonia again as I [...]

This is the fourth post in my Audit series and this time I look at Warhammer, a game that has very much fallen out of favour with me. Warhammer My Warmachine, Hordes, Malifaux and Flames of War models all sit in their cases in the house. My Warhammer models are out in the shed! They [...]

This is the third post in my Audit series (the first on, on Warmachine and Hordes, is here and the second on Malifaux is here). This time around it’s a game that I don’t get to play much, but that represents another interest – Flames of War. Flames of War I’ve always been interested in [...]
