Games Workshop aren’t the only ones running a little pre-Christmas advent calendar. Hawk Wargames – the minds behind Dropzone Commander – are doing one as well, releasing teaser-images for a host of new miniatures that will be revealed around Christmas. I briefly dabbled in Dropzone Commander, though I admittedly haven’t played it since. The one […]
Terrain in miniature wargaming is an odd affair. Without doubt, the look of your gaming table, the “feel” of your game depends as much (if not more so) on the terrain you have, as it does depend on your miniatures. Nevertheless, wargames terrain (for a lot of people) only gets a fraction of the effort compared […]
Last weekend, one of Europe’s biggest gaming convention – Essen Spiel – was held in – as the name says – Essen in Germany. Lots of interesting things going on, and several miniatures companies were present to show off their newest games and miniatures. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to attend. However, the guys (and girls?) […]
Last year, a new miniatures gaming company – Hawk Wargames – launched a new 10mm sci-fi miniatures game – Dropzone Commander (and without Kickstarter!). Fans lovingly call it DZC.

Despite this, thousands of pages of fan fiction are written every day, and not a few of them for wargaming universes such as Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K or the […]
With TempleCon in full swing, many miniatures wargaming companies are unveiling new stuff. The biggest reveal was easily the new Warmachine Faction from Privateer Press, the Convergence of Cyriss. Hawk Wargames has been busy as well, however. They used TempleCon to show off a number of new miniatures for all their 4 factions, including the […]
The people over at Spartan Games in Somerset, UK, have certainly been very, very busy of late. For Gen-Con, they just revealed their entry into the field of 28mm miniature skirmish wargaming: the upcoming Dystopian Legions. The models on show at Gen-Con were nothing but awe-inspiring. But as exciting (and ambitious) Dystopian Legions already is, it […]
The Infinity Campaign Book Paradiso is now available for preorder from Corvus Belli, as well as various online retailers. Though it comes with a slightly higher price, Corvus Belli is sweetening the preorder deal by throwing in (not quite for free) an exclusive miniature of Go-Go Marlene, tipped as the most famous and most gorgeous journalist […]
