Skirmish, Story, and Steel – Pillage Arrives with New Minis You’ll Want to Paint! #OTTweekender
June 13, 2025 by crew
It's OTTWeekender time! On this week's show we take a look at the stunning new miniatures that are coming from Victrix for their brand new game, Pillage - Ransack The Middle Ages. Adding to their existing range of Vikings, Normans, and Saxons, we can now look forward to some spectacular Carolingians and a cluster of Celts with the new Picts and Scots, all neatly boxed to get you started immediately into their new game. Added to that, there are a couple of sneak peeks at some of the loot your raiders could be carrying off!

First!
Firsties ?
Loot, pillage, plunder …
But what about the other unspeakable things they did ?
I know it’s a game and we might not want to add those things in there, but let’s not pretend it never happened.
Probably for the best
The miniatures for Pillage look awesome! Have a great weekend!
I recently began 3D printing. Tiny Furniture might be in my future.
Yay its Friday night again… pillage looks interesting
Yay it’s weekender time folk’s 👍✨🌠
I’ve never dipped my toes into the Dark Age rules. I always thought I’d go for Saga, but Pillage looks interesting.
I think Pillage will end up being very fun – especially with a real scenario focus on something a bit different from SAGA
Sorry, no word from James May yet.
Booooo! Fingers crossed…
Blake 7 was great and had the Liberator on Elite 2 to fly around In
happy weekender
Pillage looks good – will look out for a few battle reports and see how it plays out first though before investing time and money into a new rules system.
Noodle have some videos in French if you don’t mind youtubes weird auto subtitles they give a decent overview
Yeh. Have been there…. wise
Good show guy’s 👍
Artillery!?! BIG BADABOOM!!! Oh I am in need of including some of these (aside from the bombard I already have)
To be fair, wampas were also a faction in the battle of Hoth, but I guess it would have made the game a little different.
Everyone is pointing at Frazetta for the new Khorne champion, but I’m seeing more of a Simon Bisley or Adrian Smith inspiration in it. The hyperbolic and more heavy-metal inspired details are closer to the nineties visual language of those two rather than the classicism of the former, in my opinion.
Big fan of Adrian Smith and yeah there is something of him in there too
Hey first time I’ve found this bit to comment on. Been watching for years right back into beasts of war days. Good work people !!
Thanks for dropping in a comment 🙂
I had the pleasure of meeting Matt Irvine {BBC special Effects genius) at a con and got to play with some of the guns from Blakes 7 – they did have big battery packs and actually did light up/flash as you see them on the series and he had Orac with him (as well as some Dr Who stuff including Boris the spider (as it was known) from Planet of the Spiders, Pertwee’s regeneration to Baker. Apparently as the Blakes 7 went on when they had to film tighter shots on the transporter bracelets as crew kept nicking them, even… Read more »
Nice one 🙂
Would love to win this one ♥️
I like trench crusades
I like the Memoir 44 system so I might pick this up.
Thanks for reminding me. I keep meaning to watch Blake’s 7 but I keep forgetting. I’m told it’s a solid show. Added to my Plex watch list now. Dunno if I ever saw any as a kid, but I had the toy of the ship. It was great.
Battle of Hoth for the win!!
THe animals for Pillage look good, migth pick up a set or two for SAGA. I am not really interested in Trench Crusade, but I’m going to pick up that Witch Matriarch.
Pillaging!
I sure hope i win the voucher; I’ve spent too much money on hobby lately, so this is the only way I can get any more stuff!
