Age of Sigmar Holiday Bundles (2nd Update)

 Warhammer Holiday Bundles

(Update, thanks to some help from Ben Johnson, we found the Aleguzzler Gargant, and are updating to reflect that missing information)

Update 2 (We have final pricing info for both the US and UK prices)


Hey, we’re going to be breaking down the holiday bundles this year from Games Workshop.  These are the Age of Sigmar Bundles and we’re going to take a look at the point values of your new toys for Christmas (Or equally appropriate winter celebrations). Now a reminder that none of these toys pass the Christmas morning test.  Once you’ve gotten the kit you still need to get them out of the box, cut them free and put them together.

Warhammer Holiday Bundles (updated 2nd time)

 Warhammer Holiday Bundles


Updates (By Popular demand, we're going to put in the UK prices for the separate kits.  We don't have the bundle pricing details from last year for you, but we can put in the current UK prices.  When we find out the retail prices for the bundles, we'll be putting those up for comparison as well.)

Update 2 (Our predictions of around 200$ seemed to be pretty spot on, didn't it?)

Hey, we’re going to be breaking down the holiday bundles this year from Games Workshop.  Now we’re going to take a special interest in the Space Marine and Necron bundles and how they relate to the folks who picked up Indomitus or one of the new combat patrols and see if we can find a point breakdown to what you can put on the field with your brand new toys.  Now a reminder that none of these toys pass the Christmas morning test.  Once you’ve gotten the kit you still need to get them out of the box, cut them free and put them together.

Deathwing 9th Edition (Part 1)

 So the 9th edition Space Marine codex is out, and because of that i’m revisiting my old Deathwing army.  With the new Index rules for the Dark Angels, there’s a brand new army on the block. i am actually thinking about dusting off the army case my Deathwing is in and putting them back on the tabletop.  So what does this look like and why am i considering this now in the middle of a pandemic and almost a year of isolation?  Well, the new rules are kind of neat.

Adventure Review: Wine and Spirits

 Wine and Spirits


Wine and Spirits is billed as a 4 hour adventure for the 5th edition of the Dungeons and Dragons rules set. Published by Rat King Games, and retailing for $7.99, it’s a horror themed adventure focused on a haunting in a small town that plays out over a single night.  I’ll talk a bit about what i like about the adventure, the things that get in the way, and the ease of you running/playing it in your home game.  

Into the Motherlands (Show Premiere)

 Hey everyone, we’re back with a very brief rundown of Into the Motherlands RPG that premiered Oct. 4th on Twitch.  Powered by the Cortex system from Fandom, and telling the story of lost explorers, Into the Motherlands is something that we haven’t seen before in the RPG livestream community.  The cast and crew are all black and/or POC and it’s a space that this cast and crew have created for themselves in our larger community.

Gaming Myths (Pt ?)

Hey Game Fans, we’re going to be tackling an interesting series of gamer cliches/commonly accepted wisdom/myths. These are things we’ve all heard in the past and that seem to have just been accepted as commonly held beliefs. These aren’t necessarily true, and we’re going to take a look at the underlying principles that may have led to these being accepted as truths.

Craftworlds Painting Project Log #2

Hey game fans, we’re back with another article on our Hobby project for 2020. Today we’re going to talk about Colors, and the paints we’re going to be using for this project. Most of this project is going to be using the Contrast line of GW paints. These are a lot of fun and I have had a decent amount of success with in the past. So that’s how we’re going to run most of this painting project. Let’s take a look at the base of this project and then go into some details.

Wraith Army Project Section 1

Hey Game Fans, this is one of the many articles that will be part of my feature for the year on my new Craftworlds army project. Now, this is a big project, full of ambition and hilarity. The goal is to have the army ready to take to Gencon at the end of July this year. Now assuming that this all works out, this army project should be ready to go well ahead of that. First things first though, let’s talk a little bit about Diabetic Retinopathy.
