40K and Competitiveness

This post started as a review of the Grey Knights and my thoughts on it, as well as my thoughts on the general internet opinion of it. (I apologize in advance, as I've had to rearrange my thoughts after deciding to split it into two posts.) Needless to say, I wouldn't be considered part of the current "popular" view o

As I walk into INFINITY

For those who many not have heard of the game, Infinity is a tabletop miniature wargame from Spain that started almost 10 years. I had seen the models back then (even picked up a couple to paint), but I never really went anywhere with it. Mostly because I knew of no one else who played. Advance to 2014, and now I

Tempestus Militarum: A review with 7th Edition in mind

Warhammer 40,000: Militarum Tempestus *This article I've been trying to write since the book came out due to life, so I apologize for what may seem like a late review (and the long gap between posts).

Warmachine Campaign - The Heart of Thornwood

So I had a couple of the guys over the other night for gaming. We had been discussing doing a campaign in WarmaHordes for a while. I have a Mighty Empires tile set I painted up from when I used to work at the one of the GW's in town, and it seems like a waste to not use it again. It even works in an abstract way

Trying out new things

I hope everyone had a good long weekend (at least for those of you in North America). I had a very good weekend, which will probably be one of the last I can play away from home in a bit, as my wife is about to "pop" with our second child. And I admit, I'm a little late on this post, as it has been very busy in th
