The ANNIHILATION is over and Khador came out on top. Each of the four games was contested closely and the attrition rules limited both of our force selection, particularly in the final game. Here are all of the articles related to this campaign – [Games 1 and 2 | Game 3 | Game 4 | [...]

Honouring the fallen The scene was one of devastation. The Menite crusaders were all fleeing the battle, inert ‘jacks abandoned and the injured left to die where they lay. The Khadoran jubilation was short lived. Yes, the enemy had been vanquished, but the cost has been high. Irusk lamented the death of every Khadoran soldier. [...]

This is an article I wrote a couple of months ago for Issue 3 of the Uplink magazine [pdf] “Play like you’ve got a pair!” is the catchphrase for this fast-paced aggressive game. If you like the sound of a wargame that has a stunning range of miniatures, is based in an immersive and compelling [...]

Here’s a photo from the middle of a great game I played this week – My Marauder had used Combo Smite to slam Deathjack towards Tartarus and the Bane Thralls. Unfortunately I only rolled 1″ on the slam, but that’s another story. Anthony, my savvy opponent, saw the opportunity to cause a little mayhem. He [...]

The Khadoran Avalanche… Irusk’s attempt to blunt the early enemy advance had been less than successful. To add insult to injury he had lost the only Devastator in his force to a rare moment of impetuousness. Severius had brought confusion to the Khadoran ranks, something Irusk was not accustomed to and had managed to sieze [...]

I’ve always been a big fan of Games Workshop’s Epic game. I’ve owned pretty much all of its incarnations over the years and currently have large Blood Angels and Eldar armies, but what does that have to do with Warmachine and Hordes. Well, Epic is for representing large scale battles with a single assault between [...]

The water tower and coal store terrain project distracted me a little and progress on the Commodore was slower than expected, but here it is now. I received about 15 pirates (non-Privateer Press) from Ugo and they are fantastic sculpts. I’ve cleaned off a few Press Gangers and some of the models I received, so [...]

A saltier sea dog you won’t meet anywhere else… I sculpted bases for the Commodore and its crew last night. I’ll clean off the miniatures and attach them today (hopefully). I got a text message from Ugo yesterday to say that he found twelve pirate miniatures (including a Goblin pirate!) during a Spring clean. He’s [...]

Here is Mr. Walls about 80% complete. The metals will be the final stage and I’m going to try to keep them quite bright to lighten the overall colour scheme for the miniature. I picked up the Commodore today, so along with the Press Gangers that will round out 35pts of Privateers. I’ll probably tackle [...]

And just to prove I paint the backs too … Mr. Walls is next on the painting bench. Owen
