Next Year’s Irish Nationals for Warmachine/Hordes will be held at Leprecon on the 4th-5th March 2011 in Dublin. Leprecon is the annual con organised by the DU Gamers of Trinity College Dublin.

Yesterday Harry and I played out a 75pt game (No Mans Land scenario) of Hordes. Here’s a 9+ minutes video battle report – Enjoy! Owen

Continuing my ‘proxied’ Circle Orboros army here’s my Pureblood Warpwolf. The miniature is a limited edition Wolfen from the Confrontation range called Varghar. I chopped off the large axe he was carrying in his left hand and decided to base him on ‘stone’ rather than the skull and bone pile he came with. I think [...]

The good gentlemen (I might be using that term a little loosely!) at Lost Hemisphere have started a new podcast. Check out a blog post introducing it here. I enjoyed their first episode and look forward to many more. I’m a fan of The Iron Agenda and Focus and Fury podcasts. In my mind they [...]
