finally a game for my Battletech minis 😉
A new home
I downloaded the free Hardware rules yesterday. Looks promising!
Yet more stuff for the pile of shame, some great stuff this week.
Yay it’s weekender time for 👋✨️👍🏻
Yay another stompy bot game 🤖
They are fighting the children of the corn !?!🤔
I need that Hardwar Totally-Not-An-Urbanmech!
Did you check Lloyds she’s for the hills on his train table’s @avernos 🤔
Could be good for the other walking dead series at the start of the outbreak ?
Ooh a Chinese Buckbeak ?
A new Odin droid ?
Captain Becky and his band ?
A new dogtanian game ? ducktsnian
Their pirate’s surly one of the group’s likes the Rum casks ?
Field commission medal ?
Or the lawyer in the bog ?
Fab show guy’s 👍
I do like the terrain for Hardwar.
How well they match the video game? It is the other way around, GW designed them so the could be used in Total War. GW still in their old way, new army and they are over the top.
My spring clean challenge truly fell on its arse. There was far too much real life going on.
Winners for Spring Clean? I’d say: prior to Christmas 2026
Awesome episode as always!
So for the Ka-mi battling away with some LVT (probably the A as I can’t really see the 50 cals destroying the light tank) was is the battle of Leyte ? it seems to be disputed wether it really happens or not.
But the idea to do it in 15mm with a few LVT vs a few Ka-mi sounds really cool.
Also better than frog in space? Dogs in Space of course, check it out it’s quite a good show 😉
Shameless comment aimed at winning 50 quid voucher!
Love the Warbands for Port Royal. Have a great weekend!
I agree with Wargames Atlantic. You can never have too much head.
The sci-fi epic revival gathers pace! How long until we see the surge of epic fantasy releases?
