We are having a lot of fun with this and it's all thanks to Archon Studio for sending over their masses of plastic terrain which we've been using to build this insane tabletop which stretches into the skies.

We got a chance to dive into a chat with Charlie from Warlord Games about what we have to look forward to when folks dive into Bolt Action: Korea.

It’s the Weekender! I’m loving the updates on the 40k Apocalyptic 18′ table build. It’s fun to watch Lloyd get jazzed about this new build. I’m really enjoying it! Warcry has sucked me into Age of Sigmar finally. I didn’t what to play any Chaos armies so I had to look around. The ‘Idoneth Deepkin’ is listed as one of the three armies of ‘Order’. I remember when the Idoneth Deepkin was first being presented to the AoS community, I told myself that if I ever get into AoS that that would be a cool and different kind of army… Read more »
Gene Wolfe was a veteran of the Korean War. Apparently he used his memories of the experience for his Book of the New Sun.
I think that Peanuts character was Pig Pen, who always had the cloud around him
Linus was the kid with the security blanket and was Lucy’s younger brother.
cheers, all I really remember is that Charlie wouldn’t talk to us at Historicon
Good grief
Great to see some Nork’s for Korea, I’m tossing up between getting South Korean’s or Nork’s and South Koreans. The Reason the Chinese had so much stuff is that during (for the Germans prior to) WWII the Allies poured weapons into China to support Chiang Kai Shek against the Japanese. The Germans armed parts of Chiang Kai Shek’s Nationalist Army prior to the war as well but for obvious reasons their aid was not able to continue. The Communists obviously beat Chiang Kai Shek and his Nationalists and managed to capture a lot of his equipment. Please do some Asian… Read more »
Derelict town falling to bits . No sentient life visible. Danger lurking round every corner. I name this town Lurgan
lol I fell in love with a girl from there once…
That has to be a story for an XLBS!
The scatter terrain is easy then, bottles of a legendary tonic known to cure all woes!
Lurgan Champagne!
The Clone Wars stuff is going to be huge in my local group and I’m very excited.
The Prequels are one of the best stories that was extremely poorly executed and badly acted (plus those horrendous Gungans) and has so much cool stuff just waiting to be explored. What was it 5 seasons of Clone Wars plus the Two Movies meas we’ll see so many epic Jedi and Droids.
If anyone hasn’t seen the best breakdown of Star Wars ever I direct you to Alex Jones explaining Star Wars in under 3 minutes.

THEY’RE TURNING THE FRIGGIN’ WOOKIES GAY!!!!
lol
also don’t forgot the two amazing clone wars series that tied episode 2 and 3
Clone Wars is a great series. The really good stuff is at the end though but it’s very worth it to see so much cool stuff.
Genndy is a fantastic director it was really great seeing that samurai jack style brought to star wars. Shame the episodes were only 10 mins long
It’s the Weekend!!
Truuudvaaang looks interesting, but nowadays a pile of plastic looks daunting and I’m not yet convinced about the gameplay elements.
OK, the Apocalypse table, hmmm… The planet is called… hmmm… TABEL, and it’s where Space marines from all over the galaxy come to… umm… EAT, yeah that’s it… Eat, the third building is a big canteen where Spacemarines come to eat! There are long tables where, after collecting their meals on a tray from the Emperor’s servery… That’s it, it’s called “The Emperor’s Servery”. anyway after getting their food they sit at long tables to eat. They recently had to build an extension allowing bigger chairs and tables to accommodate the Primaris. That means the second building is… umm…the Kitchen… Read more »

Through early morning fog I see visions of the things to be the pains that are withheld for me I realize and I can see… that suicide is painless It brings on many changes and I can take or leave it if I please. The game of life is hard to play I’m gonna lose it anyway The losing card I’ll someday lay so this is all I have to say. suicide is painless It brings on many changes and I can take or leave it if I please. The sword of time will pierce our skins It doesn’t hurt… Read more »

While I fully appreciate the context of these lyrics I hopefully don’t need to point out that there’s some deep serious s#it in them.
Should anyone seriously consider that suicide is painless and is something to be taken or left as one pleases, please seek some help based upon up-to-date thinking about such matters as PTSD, depression etc.

The planet is Carbopluviam, found in the Septentrionalem System, which is part of the Herberinosa Galaxy, located far, far, away…oops wrong IP. Carbopluviam was a relative normal planet, except for one thing – how fanatically religious its populus was. Many miracles, visions of the Emperor and other Imperial Heroes (notably a lack of Dark Angels o-O) and many mysterious icons and artefacts. Many of these icons were claimed to have certains powers, the priests on Carbopluviam claimed they channelled the will of the Emperor, and all the troubles on the planet began when these claims started to investigated by Inquistator… Read more »
Must resist naming table anything political…. although if the tall building isn’t at least nicknamed Trump towers for reasons (I have my background ??)
You could call it Clamp towers and have lots of little gremlins. I mean termagants running about the board
would the little gremlins be clampets then?
good morning everyone
the heat is finally gone 41.8 º ?
I love the Bolt Action: Korea figure (MASH) now I’m going to whistle all day the theme song from M.A.S.H 4077 ???
Those MASH minis might break @sundancer!
https://youtu.be/ARt9HV9T0w8
and it’s technically not a new system if it’s for display purposes, AM I RITE ?
Stop pressing blood from a stone (aka money from my wallet). But, to be honest, if any of my local store would carry them… they somehow would find their way to me…. I fear…
So I’ll stay at home. for ever.
The warlord resin might be a good material for extra heads? A tiny bit lighter than metal, and perhaps a more attractive material to those non-metal believers.
And those KPA are so nice. Agree with Warren about the love for the person or persons whom painted them up… They have really flicked my shiny syndrome switch on these!
They’ve done them for SPQR so I think they will change them all in time from metal. Just a matter of when
The Chinese PVA sounds like an army who would stick around for a long time…
I also had to rewind when Gerry said the guy would make a great spotter, I actually thought he said train spotter and was wondering if Lloyd had invented a new game!
Cheers mate, I had a blast painting them
I really need that Mash squad – it brings back memories of being allowed to stay up late to watch the show on BBC2 when I was a kid. Fingers crossed warlord does the helicopter ambulances with the patient bubbles on the sides.
Now, how shall I build “the swamp” in 28mm scale? 🙂
I’m looking forward to picking up some of the Chinese and Korean infantry. You could use the Chinese for the civil War in China just prior to Korea, 1946/7-1949, though fighting between the Nationalists and Communist factions goes further back to pre-WW2.
I think that entire sector is one big Administratum centre, with many branches represented. But the big tower I would name the Basilica Administratum and that is the primary hub of governance. Filled with thousands of Administratum clerks whose sole job is to oversee the rest of the facility, whose job in turn it is to manage the rest of the planet. The large tower would probably be the seat of the planetary governor, its not big enough to be a primary space port but it probably has (had?) a private spaceport for use by the governor and their family… Read more »
Now I think about it, I think the whole complex should be the Basilica Administratum. Like a cathedral to the sacred administrators of the Imperium. The spire needs a new name.
ill try the big tower out for a name. I was thinking The Spire of The Heretics. The bottom of the building is a front administration, followed by prison cells, the troops that are deemed heretics and outlaws are brought up to the top of the tower to be thrown to their death as a “final fall from grace”
THE CITY OF ANSWERS This city is the sanctuary of humanity, where the spiritual power given by the Emperor to his children gathers. And that makes it the most vulnerable place in all galaxies. When this city falls, everything is lost to the darkness for ever. Building 1 = THE COMMANDERS HALL – There, all commanders receive their final consecration. Whoever harbored any doubts will find his destiny in these halls Building 2 = THE CATHEDRAL OF THE LOST – Where all fallen souls can find peace Many have left, but their pure souls have resisted chaos. They will find… Read more »
With GW naming everything to make it sound like Latin the very obvious and predictable name for the massive tower would be Bigus Dickus
Constructed by the Erectus Maximus?
How about keeping it simple for for the actual city
Culranius Imperialis
For some of the buildings like the one that’s going to have all the skulls in I can picture as a tomb full of the emperors heroes so something like Sepulcrum of the Chosen.
I can also imagine the large tower as something like the Tower of Babel so referencing trying to reach the God Emperor like the Eternal Stairway.
I quite like the idea of Warcry only having Chaos Warbands because they’re not really mainstream chaos, they are more like Necromunda gangs than chaos warbands. Apart from being barbaric, aggressive and violent there is nothing about the Warcry warbands that really looks like Chaos as we know it. I would like to see some other warbands, maybe something like the Fyreslayers could work or maybe a bunch of human mercenaries from the free cities, but I am not really convinced that I want to see Stormcast stealing the show again.
At the end of the BA Korea segment they talk about the tickets for October probably being gone by now.
I get that the segment is pre-recorded but the guys in the main show didn’t follow-up or clarify that at all.
I haven’t seen them offered yet – have I missed it?
Talked about it last week in the segment on warlords organised play. They will be announced to backstagers first but haven’t been released yet. I forgot Charlie had talked about that in that interview
I saw that last week and have been keeping an eye out so when I heard them saying the tickets might all be gone I was ‘wait, what!!’ so thank you for putting my mind at rest.
I shall keep an eye and ear out on tomorrow’s show to see if there’s an update.
MASH is a great show.
I think you’ll find it’s spelled M*A*S*H 😉
Well, the way I spell it is MASH.
The City of Kolrayne on the planet Kult The Kolrayne Muster Ground is a vast complex of stately buildings which opulently demonstrate Kult’s allegiance to the Imperial creed. Ostensibly, Kult is a compliant world that takes great pride in supporting the Imperial fleets as they come to collect their tithes of conscripts, initiates, and psykers. However this show of allegiance would seem to some to be a bit too keen, raising suspicion that the High Lords of Kult have hidden agendas that they wish to hide. Perhaps one day in the not too distant future, some of these agendas may… Read more »
@lloyd the baneblade variant you are referring to is the storm lord.
