Gaslands – 3d printed items
With the deadline on the access to my 3d printer, I am going through the different project that are in need of attention of 3d printed items. And one of the system that is on that schedule, is Gaslands!
While I do have the cars, the question is - what else do I need? I do have the upgrade sprues that Northstar offers, I have the dice and in terms of core game items, am only missing the tokens and templates.
But beyond that, I need mostly terrain:
- Barriers
- Stacks of Cars (considering just buying a cheap set of Matchbox cars and smashing them in a vice)
- Something to mark the gates / check points
- Pieces to convert the vehicles
Marvel Crisis Protocol – Inhuman Royal Court
Today, we will be reviewing the fourth box in our Marvel Crisis Protocol series: the CP166 Inhuman Royal Court.
This affiliation pack, CP166 Inhuman Royal Court, has an RRP of 64,99 USD and contains four miniatures.
As the Inhumans were not as prominent or successful in the MCU — they "only" had a TV series that was cancelled after one season — I would like to briefly introduce the Royal Court. They are the ruling body of the Inhumans, a genetically advanced offshoot of humanity created by the Kree. Residing in the hidden city of Attilan, the Royal Court governs their isolated and highly stratified society. Each member plays a unique role, balancing political, philosophical and military responsibilities, and protecting Inhuman culture and interests from outside threats.
If you have access to Disney+, you can stream the TV show there.
The set includes the following items:
June 2025 review
Half time for 2025! And it is time for a recap of June.
Even with the few holidays and bridging days, it was quite busy. Especially in combination with heat since the mid of the month. My son and I did a trip to the Limes Fortlet and Watchtower in Pohl. You can find the visit on the blog, and it will certainly not be the last trip report you'll see here this year. Looking forward with the kids getting older, to check out some sights like Teutoburger Wald, Niederwalddenkmal and Völkerschlachtdenkmal.
One activity was clearing out my studio. Sorting items and projects that I no longer follow and mostly reducing my terrain collection. Among those items for example is the Pegasus Hobbies Gothic City, of which I have five sets here. I'll publish a trade post on here, with various bundles and lots, as I want to free up space.
Marvel Crisis Protocol – Guardians of the Galaxy
We've already shown you two Guardians of the Galaxy here: CP126 Yondu and Nova. Now it's time to cover the Guardians of the Galaxy Affiliation Pack CP222, which features three well-known Guardians and Cosmic Ghost Rider. Ghost Rider? Yes, but more on that later.
The CP222 Guardians of the Galaxy Affiliation Pack has a RRP of 64.99 USD and contains four miniatures from the Guardians of the Galaxy affiliation. The other Guardians are currently not available and are probably in schedule for a redesign (CP16 - Gamora & Nebula and CP20 - Drax and Ronan)
The set includes the following items:
Marvel Crisis Protocol – Elsa Bloodstone and Man-Thing
After Star Wars Legion and Star Wars Shatterpoint we jump to Marvel Crisis Protocol, who had their own roadmap introduced at Adepticon by Asmodee / Atomic Mass Games. In this case we have a double-feature and cover Yondu & Nova as well as Elsa Bloodstone & Man-Thing. But each in their own review, continuing with Elsa and Man-Thing.
The second character pack, CP186 Elsa Bloodstone & Man-Thing, is available for a RRP of 44.99 USD. Slightly more expensive than CP126, but we have larger miniatures and more content in here, which justifies this decision, but more on that within this review.
The set includes the following items:
Limes fortlet and watch tower Pohl
Last weekend, we took a short trip to the Taunus mountains in glorious weather to visit Pohl and the Limeskastell. This is a replica of a Roman wooden fort with a watchtower, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site for 20 years.
Here, the Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes (ORL) around 100 AD is recreated on the border with the Germanic tribal areas. The site was built in 2011 according to the latest research and is located near the site of a small fort.
The fort is open during the main season (March to October) from Friday to Sunday, usually from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please check before your visit to see if there are any special closing days or other events taking place there. Admission is €5 for adults/young people and €2.50 for children aged 7 to 14. Younger children are admitted free of charge.
Parking is available directly at the fort, which is located on the B260 between Nassau and Naststätten. We encountered a colourful mix of visitors, and the taverna, which offers reasonably priced drinks and food (including hot meals and cakes), makes it a great place to stop off as part of a day trip.
Marvel Crisis Protocol – Yondu and Nova
For the next Marvel Crisis Protocol reviews, we have a double feature of character duos, starting with Yondu Udonta and Nova/Richard Rider. Elsa Bloodstone and Man-Thing will receive their own unboxing and build review.
This character pack, CP126 Yondu & Nova, is available for a RRP of 39.99 USD. Both heroes are probably best known for their appearances in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, but more on that below.
The set includes the following items:
Warhammer The Old World – Grand Cathay Battalion
We are pleased to welcome a brand new army to the Warhammer The Old World tabletop - the forces of Grand Cathay. Those of you who play the Total War: Warhammer Series know more about this than those who have stuck with the miniature game, which is why we are going to cover the battalion in a slightly different way.
Games Workshop sent us the Grand Cathay Battalion boxed set, which is available for pre-order from June 21st and will officially be released on July 5th, with an RRP of 145 EUR or 110 GBP.
But before we unbox the battalion and take a closer look at its contents, we want to introduce Cathay in a similar way to how we did it with the first two Old World factions:
Legions Imperialis – Mustering the Imperial Fists
I did an initial draft of the theme of my Epic scale Imperial Fists, long before the rules of Legions Imperialis (or even the game itself) were announced. And now with access to the various formations and detachments, I want to create a proper scope for this project.
Initially, they are meant to be Defenders of Terra, the Imperial Fists forces of the Third Sphere. We made an example army list, using the content of the starter boxes and first wave. This is somewhat limited, but gave us around 2.000 points to work with.
The access to the Sicarans, Predators and Kratos will give us the option to use a proper armoured company, as well as solid transports within a Demi-Company using the Rhinos.
