![Warcradle Studios Reveal TINY New 10mm Festive Marker! [Updated]](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2025/11/christmas-kyle-main-600-338.jpg)
Hallo? Hallo! Haaaaaallo.
Oh Halo… now I get it.
ODST!!!!
so … Rome soon then ? 😉
Did it have a train station?
It will this time 🤔
Possibly…a wagon train station? I guess it depends if your train fetish extends to horses or not.
😁😁🤞🏻
Hope I win
Good summer to all 🙂
Looking forwards to all of the Wargames Atlantic rules coming soon, Deathfields looks great so far
Yeah – feels like they’re starting the ball rolling on a lot of stuff
The Bloody Miniatures figures might work well with the Flashing Blades system if Sydney Roundwood ever gets it sorted out.
Hah hope so – want something to use the minis with!
Those Bloody Miniatures might reignite the bonfire for my Witchfinder General (I think that’s what the rules are called) project.
Grand idea
Sitting down to it now.
ODST are here..
Love the look of the ODST for any generic sci-fi setting
The tank power problem goes away if you play bolt action tank war at 15mm. Half the movement and keep the weapon ranges. Its awesome
I am tempted to actually give that a go
Umm. I watch the weekender every week and this week Gerry was looking younger and slimmer!?! Was it a diet? Haircut? or a lack of GW?
the later, definitely the later
Friday comes round again and more goodies to drool over…. lovely
Happy weekender time folk’s 👍✨👍
Weekender is the perfect wa5vh for a slow Saturday morning, cuppa and some painting.
Good one guy’s 👍
I’m not sure the new Gentleman’s War redux represents as good value as the previous one!
Also, have you seen Medbury Miniatures have a Kickstarter running for WW2 Australian’s in 28mm? Check it out, they look excellent 👌
We have indeed seen that – will be talking about it next week as went live after we filmed 🙂
I’m always tempted by new Bloody Miniatures.
Like the look of the Bloody Miniatures
OnTableyPots people, OnTableyPots
Just played an exciting game of capture the flag tonight. Super hyped for the ODST’s, can’t wait:)
I’m hoping to break out Flashpoint again soon
ODST was a nice change of pace in Halo and it was fun that they brought Buck back as a Spartan.
I agree with Gerry, you don’t need tanks in Bolt action.
I was waiting for the bigger stuff in Warcrow.
I’m interested in the WGA rules, I’ve got a shed load of the damned arriving at some point this year so it would be good to have options on top of one page rules. Although I have considered using them as a trench crusade force to some extent.
Terrible Kids Stuff are of exceptional quality.
Damn, I’m more and more tempted to try Warcrow. Must resist!
Great show this week. Not often you guys pick an Indie I don’t know but this one looks cool. I’m going to check it out. Thanks.
How am I only finding out about Aetherstream now? I bought the og Crimson Skies game when it originally came out in the late ’90s and have always loved it. Aetherstorm looks similar a number of ways (the move plotting sheet in particular looks almost the same) man the nostalgia rush I just got…welp, damn, looks like I’m getting a new game.
The more you know!
If I can just ask about the new Black Templars… lol
No GW this week! Someone somewhere is sitting in a corner right now wailing and rocking themselves. Am I a bad person for laughing? Do I care if I am a bad person? Do ethics and morals even apply to GW related issues anyway? Who really knows….
Dear Wargames Atlantic, It’s all great, but when will the warring States Infantry set come out? My Cathay army is waiting…
I sense they might come out sooner than you’d think – WGA tend to go whole hog on something and it has been brewing in the background for a while so I’d guess it’ll be soon!
I like to Winn this
Halo really needs vehicles and by the sounds of what Ronnie had to say they are coming. Also whilst the aesthetic of Infinity has always caught my eye the metal minis have always put me off. Warcrow however looks incredible and from what I understand is metal free so maybe I’ll give it a go.
I will be interested to see how the vehicles work and if the space for Flashpoint will get bigger – I suppose we can just look at Deadzone for a way that it’ll all work!
Terrible kids minis are outstanding! And Hag28!!! Just mega! This episode is like my hobby these days…devoid of Warhammer!
The beta for that Halo expansion didn’t test very well so they made some changes. Apparently, Feet First In To Hull was boring.
Guess the Slough expansion pack is out of the question then?
a big fan of your show writes here
Love the art from Hag28, looks almost Froud like. New flames of war starter looks tempting tbf. Always fancied getting into FOW.
Thanks for another great show guys
Nice one 🙂
Quite interested in deathfields, just down loaded the pdf.
I feel the urge to give Mantic even more money. Damn you Ronnie!
I love the Unequal Working Conditions design for the cockpit of the War Rigs: Pilot? Yeah, reinforced mecha head and big front plate to keep you safe. Gunner? Just sit on the chair up there, yes, head up high, please. Helmet you say? What about it?
Also, hashtag hag life… surely you mean hagstag.
They take only the bravest (or stupidest) to be gunners
To be fair, they give them the most comfortable chair the Hegemony can offer, so swings and roundabouts, I guess.
Great show as usual lads!
Just looking at Terrible Kids webstore. The Al Capone is hilarious.
Would so much love to win 🍀🍀
Glad to see FASA is still going, one of the longest running legends in the Industry, going as they have since the 70s with Battlestar Galactica an early Space game, and about 10 yrs of Star Trek before losing the licence which has a space game also, I should dust off. Most enduringly ofc they created BattleDroids before it became BattleTech
This weeks indie has my bank account screaming. What fantastic range, those goblins 😍
Oh yes, more juicy Halo goodness.
