Happy Friday all!
Stay my little Ray of aunshine, it will be gloomy without you.
Were … warriors? Were bear bunch please! Love Mierce – my wolves for Silver Bayonet (as yet unpainted) are from there. And the blood vore, oh I love that kit!
It’s the Weekender! Release the hounds!!!
I will miss seeing Free and hearing her perspective on gaming. Good luck on what comes next Dear Lady.
That painting book sounds very interesting! It would be nice to have a copy.
The ‘Mierce Miniatures’ look very nice. I may go on a shopping spree. At 32-40mm would these go well with my Conquest human Kingdoms Army? Also, I may just have found some new nightmare figures for ‘Reign in Hell’.

Site seems to be a bit glitchy. Double post and Very short time frame for editing a post.
upgrades so I believe that makes them features not bugs
Yes, that is exactly what the IT Dept at work tells me too! 🤓👍
Mierce have some of my favourite minis for a variety of fantasy skirmish games. Also the BEST not-Bretonnian Knight going….
Yes please but no foreign languages pretty please, hold it this is mostly foreign to me.
Best of luck Free and enjoy.
Hi weekender fan’s.
Ooh Magnificent Massive Monsters.
The blue one’s remind me of the sprites? in GOT.
For Free? What about everyone else Gerry.!
Oh no Free sorry to see you go. You brought a very welcome breathe of fresh air into the team with the board game world news and opened my eyes to ones that would have passed me by. I wish you all the best with the move and the new job.
Nice one guy’s.
Live long an prosper Free an Pascal.
Surely if you wear your sword on the left then you draw it with your right
correct, I’ve been on a Roman binge the last two weeks and I’m stuck in spanish blade mode, drawing with the same hand you fight with.
Oh yes Romans with their underarm draw. “Roman binge” What are you working on?
Morning guys, I would like the Spanish copy of “How to Paint War Games Miniatures”. Finally, it looks like I might be able to win a prize for once :). Happy weekender everyone!
I guess I’ll drop my comment here too for the Weekender. I’ve already got an idea for Talos thanks to Gerry. Should I put together a Giftmas list of wants?
It will be sad to see Free go. She was such a breath of fresh air to OTT. I wish her luck in her future adventures.
I’m not Spanish, can’t speak or read Spanish so the English copy will be perfect for me, just saying 😉
It’s always a Saturday for me, but with my new treatment making me wake in the morning for the first dose, it was good to be able to sit down afterwards watch this and get my Relic Cataphractii Terminators armour done for my 40k Dark Angels. Yes people might think I’m wasting Heresy minis on 40k, but it is my intention to use the cool Inner Circle Knights Cenobium for the Terminator Squad for my small Zone Mortalis force.
Happy Saturday.
I’ve been tempted by some of the miniatures from Mierce for a while, especially that fen beast.
Those Sword & Laser plastics look very appealing, but I’m a little on the fence with those. That’s a lot of new minis to add to the pile of opportunity. I love those bases though and it would be great if we were able to order several sprues of them by them selves.
Wow really mixed feelings about this one; on the one hand glad it’s the weekend and I have another edition of the weekender to watch but I’m really bummed to hear Free is going away. I will really miss her 🙁
Witchsong Miniatures are looing weird its like humanoid and 4 legged beast attached together, they dont fit well in my opinion. torsos are too long
Sorry to see you go Free.
King’s of War is even better in 10mm!!
The Ammo bullet washes are ace too.
All the best for the future Free. You’ve been a joy and you will be missed. Thank you for sharing your time with us, and here’s to the future. Onwards!
Middle Earth stuff again looks great. Just don’t need to invest in another game.
