As well as that we're also talking two sets which have really captured our attention this week. Warren is very enamoured by the new Chamber Of Secrets expansion from Knight Models for their Harry Potter Miniature Adventure Game.
Gerry, on the other hand, is looking at Atomic Mass Games' new game, Marvel: Crisis Protocol, which we unboxed this week. Check out that video HERE and Ben's preview of the rules HERE. We're very excited to take this to the tabletop and build Metro...errr...New York for a proper heroic royal rumble.

true
I’m really happy mantic has kept updating kings of war and that its growing in popularity, with the loss of warhammer fantasy to age of sigmar it’s been hard to find people to play games with.
happy weekend to all
Happy Weekend!!!
I have to say I’m one of the people completely unimpressed by the Ossiarch faction. I am curious about Eberron as an adventuring world though!!
Love hearing about Warzans time he spends with his kids, I have the same special gaming bond with my two Grandchildren and I wouldn’t chance it for anything.
Soooooo…….My main 40k army is Imperial Fists. Thems my boyz!
In the past, I’ve bought anything that pertains to them. But now I’m at a point where I’m not sure if I need this new Imperial Fist book.
I have NO desire to replace my current true Space Marines with the Primaris models. SO, do I need this new book? Will it have anything for my current Imperial Firsts or is it all written for Primaris models?
I’m in a similar spot Dennis, I have a big Black Templar force, some of which have been painted 😉
After reading the description on the GW Store I was none the wiser about the BTs. The Crimson Fists were the only successor chapter mentioned.
Ash Barker of Guerrilla Miniature Games usually does video walk throughs of the GW books. I use those as input for my purchase decision making.
They generally appear on the Saturday when the pre-orders go up, so the two reviews shouldn’t be far away. The YouTube channel can be found here
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbO4Vs1vlAA9hz7Ad7IMgug/featured
@templar007 For some reason it doesn’t appear on the Video page of the channel, but is on the Home page…. Here it is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am-KV4O-0tc&t=10s
As expected, no Black Templars in this Supplement.
Are all the spacemarine supplements this boring ?
Never mind that if that video is correct all of them are Primaris models which kind of sucks as I’d expect a non-primaris ‘historic’ list to still be viable in the game.
OTOH … it’s like he says : every (tournament/win-at-any-cost) player is going to pick the named characters that give them the best chance to survive.
Seeing this makes me both happy and sad that none of the other factions have had sub-factions codexes (yet).
Well.…(sorry)…I know that this isn’t strictly true, but I’d consider Death Guard and Thousand Sons are supplements to the Chaos Space Marine Codex.
(Note: I haven’t read them, so my opinion is based upon not very much at all…
But hey, it’s the internet, so I don’t feel toooo bad. 😉 )
Happy weekender!
The minis in Kings of War starter is quite the leap of progress compared to the Elves I got ten+ years ago. Great to see that development!
You lads are the Lost Boys of HobbyLand. Peter Pan would be proud of you guys. However, thanks to you folks, Oathsworn has Captain Hooked my wallet (a gift for my son). Thanks a lot guys.
Do comments on discord count for competitions?
Nope
Do you get a notification when you win? Or have to check yourself on the claim page?
I can never remember what they say to do..
check the prize claim form they normally go up a week later, so next saturday will have this saturday’s winner
And how long do you get to claim if you win?
Thanks for the info!
30 days from the winner being announced.
There will be a competition section with the winners name beside it
If you have put in a claim and not got yourself a notification make sure to tap one of us and we’ll follow it up.
I have my copy on advanced order and cannot wait to get my hands on it. The new figures for the northern alliance look great.
Yeah me two. I can’t wait for it to land
Never liked Harry Potter, thought it was a load of balls. Meg and Mog and Sabrina the Teenage Witch were much better.
The Marvel game is tempting as are the Fighting Fantasy minis. Funnily enough, I started going through The Warlock of Firetop Mountain this week – no cheating either, loving it!
@robert I’ve never watched or read any Harry Potter stuff but I’m sure theres worse stuff out there. Oh look superhero rubbish I was right
Sabrina the Witch as in the tv-series with Melissa ?
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115341/
Yeah that was kind of fun.
I’ve never read the Potter books and after seeing the movies I don’t feel tempted to do so, because they’re definitely aimed at kids (plus the Gandalf clone in it annoys me).
It’s the Weekend! In my case leading to a week off where I hooe to get my hobby mojo re-energised… So inspire me!
There are many interpretations of a basilisk through time. According to the Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder (ad 23-79), the basilisk of Cyrene is a small snake, “being not more than twelve fingers in length”, that is so venomous, it leaves a wide trail of deadly venom in its wake, and its gaze is likewise lethal.
So by Pliny’s definition the only thing wrong is the size!
Is that the same Pliny the Elder that gets quoted on QI a lot for silly things the Romans did/thought ?
I wouldn’t trust him 😉
Yes indeed. One must bear in mind that this Naturalis Historia included all kinds of what were considered real beasts and creatures but which we now consider from folklore and fable.
But that aside, it’s probably the earliest Bestiary for GMs etc..
I bought into the origional Harry potter kick starter as my wife is a Harry potter fanatic, she felt distinctly let down by the feel of the rules. So we are now looking round for a games system to use the figures with. This compared with Core space who’s rules where so good my none war gaming wife has thrown herself into it 100% and played through the whole initial campaign and is now chasing me to play through all the additional scenarios.
I have also heard that the rules aren’t great. Serviceable, but not great. I have seen a lot of people picking up the models to use for roleplaying games though and for tweaks on dungeon delving.
Anyone noticed the Elephant face on the Lloyd shot of the Bonereapers Mortisan Soulmason? I’d see two eyes, a trunk and tusks… cute ^^
Really looking forward to Kings of War 3rd Edition as are other members of my gaming community but got the FoW Campaign coming up soon and still some minis to finish first.
Marvel models look interesting. Wonder if it will be around in 2 years? Great job, Have a great weekend all.
I reckon it will. I think Atomic Mass has got a good thing going here.
Happy Weekender and congratulations to the people right now have the copy of KoW3, I am to wait unitl the second half of December to buy the mine, when the Spanish editorial plain to launch it, and wait a litle more for the uncharted empires with my finally Twilight Kin, yeahhh, I was waiting for it YEARS.
I hope all enjoy the new edition, and Long live to KoW 😉
Happy weekender lady’s & Gents.
Houses of The Wizards of BOW
House Avernos: sigil The mighty Squirrel
House Warrantus: sigil 3 Kids playing
House Justintius: sigil a cogwheel on a steak.
House Ben: sigil a Guy on a box
House LJ sigil a picture of Lloyed in a pirate hat (sigil funding ran out)
Buy The Expansion now and get sigils for House Tank, House Hobbit House, House dont Hurt us Cass and sooo many more.
Tho iam waiting more on KOW mk III then Any Aos or potter stuff, since its a good way to use all My old world fantasy stuff.
Excited to get in on KoW3. Those Northern Alliance beasties look great!
When you’ve got a big mountain of plastic already no sane person would want to add more.
Then again … I never claimed to be sane 😉
I know too little of that universe to pick a faction.
The only reason Primaris exist is to coerce players into buying new Space Marines despite already having enough. The only reason grav tanks exist is to coerce players into buying new tanks despite already having enough. At least the Primaris look good (apart from the specialist troops types) and would have sold anyways but the grav tanks look terminally… pants. Would have been much better to cast up the washing up liquid grav tanks from Rogue Trader, at least they had their own style and originality. Lore wise, mass producing new Space Marines and grav tanks is going against everything… Read more »
The only reason anything in 40k exists is because it sells new models to players. GW old and new never cared about consistency or ‘balance’
As for in-univeres reasons for this sort of stuff.
Stagnant tech never makes sense unless there is a good reason that everyone in-universe buys into.
Chaos is invading reality (again) so everyone had better invent new weapons and tactics or else they’re dead. Orks and Tyranids are the only ones who might not need to do so, because they’re the cockroaches of the 40k universe.
I’m really excited for 3rd edition of Kings of War. I multibased my undead, so I can start right when I get the rules. The minis in the starter set are brilliant, got Nightstalkers and Northern Alliance for Vanguard already. Hope to win the set?
As for what factions to play in 3rd… I have about 2,000 points of Undead and 1,000 points of Dwarfs actually finshed. Undead is skeleton infantry heavy, I need zombies, more ghouls, more werewolves, more Balefires…. the list is endless. Dwarfs need Brocks, Rocks, Cannons, more Shooty Guys, more infantry! Then I need to think about allies!
@warzan I came across this on drive through RPG site, a source book called Ancient Tombs for the Savage World system. it may give you some ideas for your games.
https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/291833/Ancient-Tombs-SWADE?src=sub
BLOODBEAST! My favourite of the FF cover artworks. Is this the sculpt that was teased some years ago already? I was very excited about it then but thought it never came to fruition. Got to get this one.
For the Warlock of Firetop Mountain, I think I prefer the Otherworld version (now OOP unfortunately). This render here looks like Jeremy Corbyn. And he ain’t no wizard.
