Grim... wrote: Is that the player that mustn't kneel? Yup. So if you drop your dice, better hope you're pretty flexible! There's a whole bunch of these rules, one of them is '+1 to wounds if you have a bigger beard than your opponent' They're designed for fun, something silly to add to the game once you and your mates have had a few drinks. They're entirely optional, but I can assure you that staring at your opponent and intoning "WAR" at them in a deadly-serious voice as you roll the dice is hilarious. Download the rules and have a look! It's a brilliant skirmish game that you can scale up as much as you want. |

This morning, all the staff here at Games Workshop Towers were summoned to the reception bit where there used to be a great big Space Marine statue. It's been replaced by this: Attachment: sigmar.jpg which is certainly striking... |

It's under the big hammer thing, there. I should have said car park but I've been writing about plastic goblins all morning and am finding it hard to words good. No idea what it's made of, I seriously hope it's been treated to withstand the horrid rains of Rottingham otherwise by December it'll be a mess and a half. Ever visited Warhammer World? it got rebuilt and reopened a couple of months ago, it's pretty cool now. |

My pleasure. Get a picture up once it's assembled! Apologies for clipping a couple of bits off the sprue - I was going to build it but I've basically got a 1500pt Skitarii army already. |

What? I didn't get any Haribo! Yeah, there's some cross people out there. I picked up my Age of Sigmar box at the weekend and I like it (I'm going to paint my Relictor like Papa Shango!), but then I was never into Fantasy especially. I get why it's pissed off a lot of people but (obviously) I hope a lot of people like it. |

I've been working on a 20mm (1/72 for aero modellers) scale modern warfare set up to play with the boys. I've painted 20 or so modern Russian soldiers - 20mm is so much bloody smaller than the regular 28mm-plus scale GW stuff - fiddly little bastards. I'll post some pictures this weekend. I'm halfway through making some T-90 tanks, then I've got an Apache, a Hind, three Abrams, an M2 Bradley, two BMP-1s, a pair of Humvees and about 10 US soldiers to do... then some HO scale Western German buildings and a 4x4 foot terrain board to build. I'm also ordering some Russian Gaz jeep things. fun fun fun... |

GW must be shitting themselves. http://www.gambody.com/blog/top-10-warh ... ing-files/ The WH40k Titans and knights cost more than a 3D Printer itself! I know up close there's not the same detail but that's surely only a matter of time. |

I know up close there's not the same detail but that's surely only a matter of time. Sort of but once you get into it you realise that there are limitations to what you can actually do vs injection molding. e.g. 3D printers cannot print onto thin air so you end up having to tell the slicer software to print supports but then removing these always leaves a mark. You can mitigate it by printing in multiple pieces or placing the model on the bed so as to minimise the number of supports needed but there are things they do really well and others that they just don't. |

If it's just lots of the little plastic space marine guys then I'd doubt that it would be worth getting them made vs just buying them but if there's something in particular I can have a look. Have you seen something on Thingiverse or somewhere? |
