Flip A Coin
Before we delve into the show, it's time to look at some sweet sweet moneys.
Drawlab Entertainment make a range of high quality metal coins for use in games and have now returned to kickstarter to fund their Legendary Metal Coins Season 4. We were lucky enough to get a few of these in the studio and couldn't resist showing them off.

Three new trailers launched this week, revealing a new set of pre-orders Corvus Belli are bringing out for Infinity.
Carlos joins Justin to tell us more about what we can expect from the new campaign book Daedalus' Fall and just who are the Spiral Corps.

excellent. glad I was up to start the ball rolling
I think you need to scream first!!
But I’m a fan of the subdued talk
Those demon models are ace!
the weekend is here, super, fantastic great!
So from what I get in the first three minutes… you and sam will do a “min max” gaming presentation? 😉
Happy Weekender all!
Looks like we’re gett’n some Carlos goodness this week.
I’m putting the Fallout RPG on my list to watch out for.
It looks like ‘Things From The Basement Mediterranean Village’ might finally make it possible for me to get some Spanish building on my ‘Blood and Plunder’ tables.
I think they’re a fantastic set, I’m looking at them for Napoleonics and some WW2 myself
Everything Looks great! Love the new Abaddon model. Maybe one day when the snow melts my Doom Legion can take him on.
Great Show guys, Bonus Points for Mel in Studio looking forward to seeing what he made while you guys had him chained up. Abandon with the Apnoea mask and Cape is how I’d build him. Bigger Marines look weird without a Cape to fill them out. Mel’s Channel is great. He gave me the confidence to start building some terrain and if you follow his video’s it’s very easy. I’d recommend the Spray Foam Rocks video. I agree with Justin, the Fallout Universe is fantastic. The 50’s aesthetic with future tech is a really unique choice and it works. The… Read more »
Things from the basement is partnering with 4Ground, so hopefully these will be available through a local dealer via them. But I really wanted them on the show in case that isn’t going to happen, or going to happen soon ^^
I can get 4Ground through some local companies so I’ll be fine it’ll just take a while. Thanks for putting them in the weekender or I might have missed them.
Also the notification email was funny
“new reply have been posted by the Gerry”
I didn’t realise you were “THE” Gerry. Good to know we’re dealing with the real thing rather than some fake Gerry 🙂 🙂 🙂
Glad my stuff helped you bud
Great show, looking forward to the “pre-wetting” tutorial!
It was a good one!
Hell yeah, nice to see Mel back over
It’s the Weekend!
Although with some work to finish at home by Monday it might not feel like it. Can just about squeeze in some BOWOTT output, and maybe some Rugby… Better get on with it…
Reminds me – must paint those figures for ?Monday night’s game of Infinity… Aaaaargh
Got a couple of sets of the coins – Viking and Far East – but like the idea of getting a couple more. Maybe the Drow and something generic or futuristic.
The Mediterranean buildings are very adaptable. 15mm versions would be great for FoW.
If Undaunted: Normandy is not out by June 6th – but it might be out for the 75th of the break out
even Cobra was done by the end of July, it’s post breakout launch. Hey I guess there are schedules and production times to get sorted, it’s like a lot of things that seem to be missing out. Bolt Action has a D-Day book that comes out 3 weeks after D-Day, why not have that pulled forward, it seems a bit stupid!
Timing is about 99% of sales!
I’ll actually have to give a vote for Fallout 76. Yes it is a very different game to the main franchise but it’s another chance to romp through the Fallout universe. I’ve almost finished the main story playing solo (really not interested in multiplayer) and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. If Modiohius wanted to bring it to Wasteland Warfare I think it would work best as a big box expansion with the new baddies (Scorchbeasts, Scorched, Wendigo, Mothman etc etc) and a co-op campaign, and then you could use your existing wanderers/survivors/raiders whatever to have a romp through Appalachia. I’m… Read more »
for the 2 RPG systems – if it can be done so they can share modules and just have stats for each in them – feeding both systems would not be too hard
Wrath and Rature
I’m putting the Abaddon model into the ‘Never going to do it justice’ category. It looks fantastic, so much so, it’s tempting to go back to 40k just to have it on the table. But, it’s so good, my painting would just make it look worse than an unpainted model.
Another must pledge kickstarter……my credit card thanks you lol. Love the terrain.
Up Front is the only WW2 ground game that I can think of
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_Front_(game)
interesting, never heard of it, but then it’s before my time as far as second world war gaming goes 🙂
Happy Weekender.
Abaddon looks great.
not really awake yet – great show
Digs at Sam’s height – no mention how compared to Ben he looks tiny on the screen? ? Fictional coins: always nice to see. I remember as a kid I had some Star Wars Credits that came as part of a collectors set or something. No idea what happened to them; probably lost to the dark depths of a back of a draw somewhere, lol. Mel’s friend sounds evil, lol. Abaddon: don’t like the mask, hard to decide between the other two; I think angry head looks better in the middle of melee while regal looks better comanding. I’m leaning… Read more »
Oh, my friends are evil, but so am I! ;-D
The WW2 deckbuilding game looks interesting, will have to give it a try with my histophile friend
I don’t even play 40k, but I need to pick up Abaddon for a painting project! What an incredible model.
is this the section where you leave replies to enter contests? either way great videos, I really enjoy watching these weekly videos deffinitly something I look forward too. learn so much from them
Yes you’re grand here
Did you guys forget to announce with Wild West Exodus prize of 2 posse boxes from two weekends ago? Usually you announce winners from weekends on the following weekender and there’s no sign of this one. Did it fall between the cracks?
oops sorry about that!
we shall fill that crack pronto! 🙂
OTT: Come for the games, stay for the not so subtle filth 😉
And thank you!
Just finished reading through all the comments and the only one @warzan you replied to was to make a cheap innuendo… Kudos!!! Must be the weekend 🙂
Great weekender again, always good to see Mel!
Uh, @dracs on cam. So you guys now have a USB Microscope for a webcam? 😉
it was trying to get him on the slide was the hardest part. He mostly went wheeeeee and fell off the edge.
I love you all too.
I’m really looking forward to the new Infinity stuff. Haven’t jumped into it yet.
