Love that the new Dystopian sprues allow so many ship class builds
It is pretty cool seeing a lot of options on one sprue
*blubb* *blubb* *blubb* now the fleet is a submarine fleet 😀
Dystopian Wars AND Brigade Models? Your spoiling me….Happy Weekender All
With Kings of War Armada and Dystopian Wars all we really need something from GW and a mini-agnostic rulesystem like Frosthaven to use everything at the same time 😉
A Dystopian weekend… Just what I need!?!?! 😉
Yay weekender time again.
Looking forward to seeing more Cursed City reveals.
I remember walking around the Wayland store in Hockley back in the day and it was the first time I came across Dystopian Wars. Had just left the world of GW behind and was discovering the gaming world beyond and was intrigued. I think I was looking at stuff for the Ottoman (?) forces. Weirdly further research led me to BOW. Wheels within wheels!!
I’m not saying that I’m drunk… but I have just watched IAmBeer on twitch and now quench a thirst for beer while looking at this here video.
Aeronef was the original game and Robert Fitton (Rottenlead) wrote Imperial Skies and also wrote the 15mm sci fi game Gruntz
I believe Imperial Skies is a slightly more detailed game which gas now taken over from Aerogel
Sadly nothing has been added to the landships range for quite some time
they will be good for people wanting to play mortal engines games?
I had a good snoop around Brigade myself: so much stuff and so tempting!
The Belgian WWI models made me think of the book War and Turpentine, which is based on the memoirs of the authors grandfather, who fought in the war on the Belgian side. I can definitely recommend it, and thinking now, would have recommended it for the OTT book club.
I used to have a lovely 6mm WW2 Belgian army
A nice way to start the weekend after my last exam! 🙂
Hammer’s Slammers. There aren’t many opportunities for me to watch a thing on the internet and feel young but here we are. Note this is not a complaint, so far from it!
I have white dwarf 67 that reviewed it, the review is not kind 😀 😀 but they quote mined it for the wiki entry to make it sound better
Blimey that’s over a year before I started.. First was #80. Excerpt from the Light Fantastic and just missed That John Blanche cover. Yes that one.
The fantasy scifi group newsletter Ragnarok used to gave loads of articles for Hammers Slammerz
I thought the Hammers Crucible was quite recent and came out about 10 years ago. Was there an earlier ruleset
no the WD review was for the novel, atrocious was one word that was used and went downhill from there
Ooh alien bread the board game?
Next on deathmatch Lloyd V Gerry for the 20mm Germans?
“loads of new stuff coming out *now* for warhammer 40k…”
yeah…
WHEREZ MY O’KZ?!
just for Lloyd.

are the sticky additions static or gluey? an can you wash them if dropped guys
static
nice they won’t get to dirty in use then.
they’re like window stickers used by shops, you can give them a wash in warm soapy water and leave them to dry if they do get manky
I have 100% been pouring over WWX material and reading the old Jesse James novels from 2013-2017 and doing my best to avoid looking too closely at Dystopian Wars.. I swear… seriously… lol… not another word about such a great setting… lol
you’ll have plenty of lupus/werewolf’s then Gerry?
Nice one Guys.
Love it! Avast yee scurvy b@#$%#ds
Do we know if there are 20mm lrdg in the pipeline? I have a scenario in mind
