Happy weekend all, the one good thing about not being able to sleep past 6am is that on Saturday and Sunday there is the weekender to keep me entertained!
Happy weekend from the other side of the Atlantic – where we normally get the weekender at 0:00
Absolutely amazing amount of terrain. Hope I win it!
TT-Combat have very nice terrain stuff! We used lots of the stuff for a Malifaux event in the club.
I´m hoping for some fantasy stuff coming in the future. 🙂
I am really excited seeing stuff which I think everyone can use what is great about TT combat is that they have such an amazing range.
Also, I think everyone should get the new white dwarf has a great mini, and you’d be supporting a new direction for GW.
And I think I may actually support that new hand grip.
The Thornwood looks great, but I am not sure I am going to support it because I cannot have infinite board games ha ha.
Alright guys have a great weekend.
Well after watching everything in full I have to say that prize is truly, phenomenal. The second thing is I think Carnevale is certainly looking really interesting. I certainly like the look of the terrain. I think sometimes you guys have tunnel vision I looked at those terrain pieces and thought instead of just the streets of Venice and the sunken ruins it could just as easily been Louisiana swamp town, one of the areas in Malifaux but mainly I was thinking about some sort of Brazilian setting as well. Like when I looked at the wrestling minis, though I… Read more »
I love the TT Combat stuff, while not the most deailed on the market, Its fatastically priced and fills somes in ranges.
Sweet, that’s a lot of terrain packs. I really like the bridge section pack!
Love the studio and the tables 🙂
That new White Dwarf…. man, I’ve been trying to stay AWAY from GW stuff but that was like a blast from the good old days of the late 90’s early 2000’s. I mean hell, it’s worth the fiver just to save yourself paying full whack for the Slaughterpriest (which whilst not my cup of tea is a great introduction to how good their plastics are today).
It’s the Weekend! Over to a friend’s later for a games party. Best get in the mood and catchnup with the news by watching this…
Carnevale is a fame I’ve almost jumped aboard a coupke of times now, but have either had to pull vack for my own reasons or due to stumbling KS. Mised feelings over the new look models… There is a charm to the old range but as a Malifaux fan the artwork direction is great in a different way. Did I miss something or so far do we only have a sexy slave or sexy harlot as female minis for now? … Ummm…?!? … Moving on… Their modular raised land tiles creating the canals is a clever idea. Something I’ve toyed… Read more »
Apologies for typos – but retyping this a second time on my tablet (because when I pressed submit for sone reason I’d been logged out the first time) I couldn’t be arsed to spellcheck. Hopefully these foibles of the site will be sorted in BoW2.0 !?
Uhhh! Bridges!
Happy Saturday…
White Dwarf is finally back to how it should always have been. 🙂
Also… Am I missing something with the figure holder KS..? HobbyZone have been selling those for years.
“The worst nightmares you’ve ever had; that’s a marrow”.
Now given that this is Justin’s mind here, I now worry what he thinks a marrow might actually be. There’s a whole new cartoon series there but does anyone want explore this path?
Love you guys!!!
Good stuff man!!
Beautiful MDF piecese!
Happy Saturday everyone! Really gutted that I won’t be able to go to a Boot Camp, looks like such a great time. 🙁 Perhaps if I had some awesome TT Terrain to make me feel better. 😉
Good to see Carnevale found a good home.
Another excellent show guys and a fantastic prize yet again.
If I won this I’d donate it to our club and would help with our sci-fi games and tournaments
Keep up the good work
Mmmmh winning the terrain could be a perfect excuse for my wife!^^
Absolutely beautiful terrain, means I can spend more time gaming instead end of scenery building!
Really looking forward to @mage‘s Halloween competition. I have some nice Reaper pumpkin miniatures to do a little diorama. Been following it for a couple of day now.
Love TTCombat stuff. Have some of it for Pulp City and MUMG. Works well in a pinch for Infinity too.
The buildings look amazing and the Carnivale artwork was beautiful.
Still waiting for my set of halo ground command, I can’t wait.
A Prospero burns box set sounds good, Thousands vs Space wolves. My brother and I will like that.
TT Combat are brilliant
