Bolt Action Germany Strikes!
With the Pacific Expansion right around the corner, Warlord Games makes a jump back to the beginning of World War II with "Germany Strikes!", Early War in Europe.
Tool-time!
This week LIDL has an offer on art products (brushes, frames etc.) and i got these sets of brushes for 3 euros each. Those are always a good choice for terrain or larger kits. Beside that, i am currently giving a bit of painting a try, as i need some motives for the living room, but can't find the right thing.
Lego hobby basement
We all know about the one or the other man cave, hobby den or impressive basement focused on gaming. Well and there is this impressive Lego filled one, i found at houzz.
Mantic Mars Attacks Trucks
Mantic Games released for Mars Attacks these nice Trucks in 28mm scale. They are proper hard plastic, come in a sprue etc., no restic, no resin, straight forward good old plastic. I got myself a set of 3, for general purpose in Necromunda, Zombie Survival etc.
gamescom 2015 – Part I
On wednesday, August 5th 2015, gamescom 2015 started for the trade visitors and press. On thursday the gates will open for everybody.
gamescom 2015 – Part II
And of course, part II of the gamescom visit. So what does a wargamer do on a video game show? He takes a look at wargames and wargame-themed games.
Neocore Games, a small independend studio from hungary, had Inquisitor Martyr with them, and even some death cult assassins to guard their booth. The game is still in an early pre-alpha status, but you could give it a try. It's a sci-fi hack & slay, where you control an Inquisitor against the foul heretics with already some nice graphics and grim dark feel. Some of the details are missing, but it is a pre-alpha so i am pretty sure, we will see more of it.
Vintage Wargaming
I have to thank Driscoles from the Sweetwater Board for this great found, that i'd like to share with you.
This is some vintage wargaming, captured on tape, and i really like the gentlemen like way of gaming. These videos were made in the late 70s and it the terrain looks very impressive. They cover Gettysburg (ACW) and Waterloo (Napoleonics), but enough introduction. I'll let you take at the videos by yourself.
Bolt Action Afrikakorps II
In addition to the short review on the plastic Afrikakorps, i will show you the other miniatures of this project. Head of this army is no other than Rommel himself. The Perrys do offer him inside his famous Greif, but this one is a show exclusive from World War AE / Cipher Studio. He is accompanied by the Zug Command from the Perry metal range.
Bolt Action Afrikakorps
I built my Afrikakorps already, but want to share my impressions of the plastic Afrikorps by the Perrys in this small review.
