Valpurgius may be a tough foe to face but where there's a will there's a way and Rob from Prodos Games may just have that. He will be pulling the Etoiles Mortants from the Bauhaus sidelines to have a go.
It's time to take to our saddles as we charge our cavalry onto the battlefields of Kings of War. Justin and Rich from Mantic Games take a look at how to utilise these chargers in battle. Badgers may make an appearance...
We get off our horses as Justin and Rich take a look how your army in Kings of War benefits from utilising Heroes to great effect ensuring the tide turns in your favour.
Sometimes in the world of Wild West Exodus the guns need to stay in the holsters and fists do the talking instead (or in Abe Lincoln's case a ruddy big axe). Justin and Sean from Outlaw Miniatures take a look at melee combat in WWX.
We've seen melee combat in action with the Union and the Outlaws but what do the other factions have to offer in regards to their melee options? The guys take a seat to discuss the characters who can get up close and personal.
If you're a Dropzone Commander player with a Shaltari army you need to check out this edition of Drop Tactics. We're showing off a cool technique that Shaltari Battle Strider's can use to gain an advantage on opponents; wall climbing!
We've shown Shaltari players a cool technique for getting the drop on your enemies and now Simon from Hawk Wargames sits down with Warren to go through a 1500 point tournament list for this Dropzone Commander army.
It's time for the return of Bolt Action Locked & Loaded! This time the guys are talking about some of the tactics you can explore during your World War II games concerning High Explosive Shells.

In this episode we're looking at a vehicle Imperials can use in Warzone: Resurrection, the Greyhound LAFV. This light vehicle has the the ‘Chimney’ Gas Cannon mounted on its tracks, one of the less common and very deadly weapon types in the game.
At first look you may think that the Greyhound LAFV might be near impossible to beat but don't fret as Rob from Prodos Games will give you hope as he shows Justin which tactics you can use to stop it.
It wouldn't be fantasy without some magic and Kings of War doesn't disappoint. In this video Justin and Rich from Mantic Games show off some of the magic spells that can be cast in the game including Bane Chant and Lighting Bolt!
In the XLBS edition of the show we have more magic to help your faction protect, attack and defend in Kings of War. We've got spells for all tastes such as Fireball and Windblast.
The miniatures of Wild West Exodus have plenty of options when it comes to traversing terrain and in this episode we show you some cool scenarios detailing how they can utilise climbing, jumping and throwing (from a balcony!) amongst other movements and actions.
Justin and Sean from Outlaw Miniatures have looked at Chaining Standard Actions together but there is more for them to look at as they play out some scenarios utilising special actions.
We have not one but two Dropzone Commander UCM units to look at in this episode of Drop Tactics. We have the dual tank carrying the Condor Medium Dropship and the Smart Smoke deploying Longbow Howitzers.

We enter the world of Warzone: Resurrection as Justin and Rob from Prodos Games discover how to get the best out of the Cybertonic Hero the Immortal.

It's time for action on the Kings of War battlefield as Justin pits the might of the Dwarf army against the Undead hordes controlled by Rich from Mantic Games. Who will win this epic contest?

Justin and Sean from Outlaw Miniatures look into how you can build your Wild West Exodus posse starting off at $500 and working up to $1000 (think of dollars as points!) using the Enlightened faction as an example.
We have built our Enlightened posse and it's ready for a shoot-out. What does it take to tackle them though? In this video we take a look into what Wild West Exodus units work best against the different characters that make up the posse.
We could have titled this video "Warren's Favourite Episode" as we look at how his Dropzone Commander UCM army can utilise the Ferrum and the Starsprite Drones which they launch. Watch to find out what happens when the Drones combine their shots.
The Drones launched by the UCM Ferrum can be tricky to deal with, so with that in mind we discuss what Scourge, Shaltari & PHR players can do to ensure that they can destroy them successfully in their games of Dropzone Commander.
With the Demigods Evolution Kickstarter currently going strong and knocking down stretch goals we have a copy of the game in the studio and couldn't resist showing you how the game plays. Who will ascend as the God of War, watch […]
