The Crimson Slaughter might be the last of the “old school” 6th Edition-style supplements, as “supplements” (or should that now be “sub-Codexes”?) from here on out appear to be stand-alone Militarum Tempestus style books. The Crimson Slaughter book also has a bad rep, mostly because it exists, and the Night Lords/Iron Warriors/whatever-supplement doesn’t. However, it is […]
Games Workshop is riding the Ork-waveWaaagh! to the fullest. The Ork Codex will be available in stores this weekend. Furthermore, issue 22 of the White Dwarf will also bring us pre-orders for Nobz in Megarmour and the Ghazghkull Supplement, which is already included in the Limited Edition version of the Orks Codex. Perhaps the most […]
In many ways, an era is coming to an end next weekend, when Games Workshop will release the first Codex for Warhammer 40K 7th Edition: Codex Orks. It struck me that now would be a good time to take a look back at the nearly 2 years of 6th Edition and ask, which of the […]
The 4th (!) week of Warhammer 40K Ork-releases? Is it just me, or does this feel a lot longer than when Games Workshop was doing these releases once a month? Anyhow… at least in this one we get the Ork Codex, which went up for pre-orders and will arrive in gamers’ hands next weekend! #1 […]
I’ve resisted the TIE Fighter expansion for X-Wing for a while. In many ways, it is the least economical of the expansion, as you get not just one, but two TIE Fighters in the X-Wing miniatures base game (and many people buy multiple copies of that). To make the TIE Fighter expansion attractive, Fantasy Flight […]
Three days ago, I posted an article criticising Mantic Games for their latest announcement of a special ‘Azure Forest edition’ of their bestselling DreadBall game. As pointed out by vigilant Mantic fans and by Mantic Games themselves, pretty much everything I said in that article was wrong. Worse, it was published prematurely and without the […]
Whispers of what we’ll see in the upcoming White Dwarf appeared earlier today. Now there is also a cover (confirming a lot of it, such as the exclusive (?) Looted Wagon Datasheet). Let me know what you think! Z.
Some tiny Ork Rumours via Dakkadakka, on what might await us in next (the last?) week’s Ork releases. Have a look! this one came from a facebook post “Next week releases: Mek, an ugly (not in good way) Painboy, Codex, and a deck of cards (the 36 objectives card except 6 of them are Ork specific, […]
There are many mistakes in this post, and it should never have been published in the first place. Please find the corrections and my apology here. What the hell is Mantic Games up to again? It appears that they are trying to take a page out of Games Workshop’s playbook by launching more limited edition […]
Splendor is an entertaining, abstract game where 2 – 4 players race to the most points. A lot of descriptions – on Amazon for example – describe the game as “addictive”. I don’t think I fully agree, but Splendor is a great way to spend 30 minutes, and the “puzzle” to collect the right combination […]
