Always great and affordable kits from sarissa, so have a look!

Games Workshop at spiel ’19.

Posted on by

A nice article was posted on warhammer community last thursday, with their new announcements at spiel.

Looks like a new starter set for necromunda with new gangs and terrain is not far off.

Biggest draw for me is the palanite enforcers gang, wich are looking great and are basically the reincarnation of the loved arbites!

They will be facing off against the twisted Corpse Grinder Cult , who look great as well and build on the “khorne berzerkers without armour” estethic we are used to from the chaos releases we got over the last years.

Both gangs get to face off against each other over this gorgeous terrain scape:

Really excited to see more info about this coming out in the next weeks!

Other announcements are for blood Bowl, where the ogres are getting a team box.

Looks like the aesthetic has finally adapted to the more recent ogres of WHF/AOS. Also included are some goblins for them to throw around!

My favourite is the one throwing the gobbo around!

Last but not least, the Spire Tyrants for warcry!

These look like gladiators who don’t like to lose, at all! Some great sculpts in there, and loving the fact that GW is continueing the trend of not locking down in one species for chaos. There is a great dwarf in there, and a gorgeous looking beastman sculpt, who just screams to be released separately as a character !

All in all, some great things coming up in the near future!

Introducing myself

Posted on by

Hello there,

My name is Peter and this is my blog.

I do so much games and miniatures, and post on various forums, but finally want to get everything togheter in one space, so i’m making a brand new blog!

I’ll be writing about new stuff coming out for the various (sub)categories in tabletop gaming: wargaming, boardgaming, strategy games and roleplaying games. Mostly WITH miniatures, as that is what floats my boat, but this can also be hex and counter or traditional boardgaming. I can appreciate a lot of things!

I will also talk about my own experiences, the games i play, the miniatures i paint, the stuff i buy and the rules i read, and this is a lot of stuff!

I currently own 7626 minis (at last count 😀 ) and have 5617 of those painted. I have been doing painting challenges for 3 years in a row to to get them all done (1001 in 2017, 767 in 2018, and i am at 528 at the moment in 2019), so expect quite a bit of painting updates!

I actually hope this blog gives me even more mojo to get them all done!

I hope everyone has fun while i get that going!

just a part of my collection!

Number 1!

Hi There,

My name is Peter and this is the first post on my brand new blog! An attempt by me to get more ‘active’ in my hobby. Tabletop gaming is a big part of my life, and not a day goes past without thinking about it or doing something with it, So why not blog about it?

I hope this will be the start of a great journey, with only one possible outcome : embracing the hobby even more, and planting the community even deeper in my heart!

Keep an eye on this blog because updates should be very regularely!!
