So I finally got around to painting something again last week. After getting the Elf Blood Bowl (or rather ‘Gridiron’, Blood Bowl being a ®) team from Shadowforge, I got to painting them at a pretty good rate — painting a model most days — and had got most of them finished when I stopped. …
I have now had my hands on Chaosium’s new Basic Roleplaying rulebook for a fortnight or so, and so I’ve had a proper chance to read it and see if it’s any good. My feelings are mixed. First impressions are good. It’s a weighty tome (400 pages) and nicely presented. The artwork ranges from okay …
Lots of photos of miniatures in this post, so if you found my posts last year about my Epic Chaos boring, you might want to skip this one. Some time last month, the subject came up of the game of Blood Bowl, and I ended up offering to teach some people how to play. Having …
Whee! I have now finished repainting the models from the GameSoc copy of Robo Rally. This procedure should hopefully have removed the ambiguities about which way some of the robots are facing, as well as making them look nicer (some of the previous paint jobs weren’t all that good, and they were all quite badly …

If you disagree, feel free …
While I was at home over the weekend, I was able to get at my collection of spare parts and scrape together the bits I needed to convert my Imperial Reaver Titan into its Chaos equivalent. However, since I left most of my tools and modelling putty behind, I had to wait until I got …
Meant to post about this before. 14mm d10s made of haematite = awesome.
I had been planning to replace Badbreff. But he wasn’t having any of it. He looked at me and didn’t say a word and I was silently cowed into submission. Incidentally, Babreff is 37mm tall. Including his base. Badbreff is the Nob (leader) of my mob in Gorkamorka. A total of two models have had …
Yesterday, the new edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay was released. Since I had preordered it, it arrived that very morning. As far as the new rules are concerned, I’m fairly pleased. The careers system has been left more or less intact. The skills system has been expanded and modified. The old standard tests have been …
