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.
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:
May 2025 review
Wow, okay, I felt like I just had written the April review and now I'm already writing the next recap.
Another busy but very entertaining month. In May we've been to CONflict Rhineland, and had a blast! I played multiple games, had fun in ancient greece as well as on the high seas, and of course with Deth Wizards.
It was great to see everybody again and it is sad, that it'll probably take at least until September for the next gaming meetup.
Deth Wizards – The Town Part 5
With only a few days to go, I had to get the terrain ready for the CONflict event and our Deth Wizards table - and the next step was a terrain wash.
As I didn't intend to drown them with Army Painter Washes (and drain my hobby budget by buying 17 ml pots), I went online to look for a proper terrain wash recipe and came across the one by Seb Makes Stuff. So I bought these two special ingredients and mixed them with a bit of brown paint.
Give it a good shake and I went with one of these foam brushes, as they work quite well with large(r) surfaces and give you quite a bit of control over the amount of wash you apply. Yet - depending on the structure of your model, you get quite a bit of wear and tear in no time, so make sure you have replacement on hand.
Deth Wizards – The Stitcher’s Warband Pt 2
Let us pick up where we left of the last time - with the Stitcher's Warband. It has a name now and the majority of the base colours has been applied.
I need to do some touch ups and details. And as this blog functions as a notepad for my projects as well, this is what I used for Kemmler. You can see the pictures further below.
- Clothing - Citadel Night Lords Blue
- Hat - AP Alien Purple
- Dark Metal - AP Death Metal
- Hair - P3 Bastion Grey
- Skin - Vallejo MC 70815 Basic Skintone
Deth Wizards – The Town Part 4
The progress on the houses took the majority of my easter holidays and I picked up where I left off the last time.
I added further paints to the buildings, starting with the grey for the chimneys.
CONflict Rhineland 2025
We've been looking forward to this! CONflict Rheinland took place again last weekend, and we once again hosted our own table with Deth Wizards this time.
To put this event into context, CONflict used to be a public event with traders until 2019, but it switched to a closed format when it was relaunched in 2022, and we've been going ever since. We've had tables of our own for the last three years. So, we packed the car with some essentials and headed for Langenfeld, near Leverkusen.
The event runs from Friday evening until Sunday afternoon, with some people only staying for Saturday. As we have shown you the car park so many times over the last few years, we skipped it this time. I know, I know — traditions with our event coverage — but unnecessary repetition is wasteful.
As everyday life caught up with some of the participants, there were some last-minute changes to the hosted games. But don't worry — the replacements and other options were colourful too.
Throwback – RPC 2011 Cologne Tabletop Demo Area
With the concept of the Role Play Convention returning in a re-boot as the Role Play Verse, it is a good opportunity to cover the Tabletop Demo Area of 2011 and 2012.
I went into detail about the beginnings of the T3G (TabletopTestGelände, German for Tabletop Demo Area) in the Throwback of the 2010 show, but to sum it up briefly, the Role Play Convention (RPC) was a show in Cologne (the first two years in Münster) covering various role playing contents, from video games, to LARP/cosplay and tabletop games (board, role playing and miniature based). In this wild mix, we had the great opportunity to introduce people to our hobby. We had a large area of 400m² / ~4,300 sqft area for our tabletop area and I coordinated various clubs, traders and manufacturers for the event.
Deth Wizards – The Town Part 3
My printer has been busy - really busy. Putting through 3 liters of resin in just a month. That might not sound a lot to some of you, but I use a mono 4k - mostly for bits and pieces - so that is a new record for me.
I gave you an overview, on what I printed in the last article, focusing on the scatter terrain itself, and now had a bit of larger and mid-sized sections.
While I did the mock-ups, inspired by the Warhammer Siege and Mordheim barricade sections, I placed them on some spare bases that I have (these are Renedra bases that come with a lot of historical miniatures). You can of course use plastic card, but I have more than enough of these and they provide a sturdy base to work with.
