These are table top wargames in which you become lord commander of an army of little plastic space men solely for the purposes of doing battle against another commander of little plastic space men.
In Aeronautica Imperialis: Wings of Vengeance, you take to the skies above the war-torn worlds of the Warhammer 40k universe. Commanding squadrons from the Imperial Navy or Orks. I had been interested in this tactical game since I saw the previews. But how was it?
Next up, we look at the mysterious being known only as Cypher (again). A different Cypher, but kinda the same anyway…
Today we take a look at Cypher. Fallen son of Lion El’Jonson. This 1999 pewter model is still one of my favorites.
As he (too) often does, Tyson bought some models. This time it was the Indomitus box, which came with some more boring marines as usual. I knew that those would be his since he likes that crap, maybe too much. The other half were some funky looking robot dudes, I told the husband maybe I should try my hand at them.
My Ulfenkarn Journey
Today I’m talking (well typing) about one of my favorite projects, Warhammer Quest Cursed City. The main focus of my writing will look at the models (since they are my favorite part), but I will also briefly touch on the game itself.
Since I posted about my first match of Warhammer 40k a few months ago, I felt it was fitting to do the same for the next tabletop skirmish game that I found myself playing. This turned out to be Star Wars: Legion
With my Warhound finished, I would now put all of my efforts into finishing the diorama base. Which I had been working on at the same time as the titan. In addition to building the base, I would also craft a story for the scene I was making. When the dust settled, I was left with something I could be super proud of.
In Part 2 of my Warhound build I work on, and finish, the upper half of the model. Bringing this model to completion. I also finally figure out what I am going to do about my little problem with the titans left foot.
From June to November 2020, during the first year of COVID hell, I was working on a massive project. Titanic even. This is the first in a three part series detailing how I achieved my ever evolving vision for this project. From start to finish.
Another year has gone by. Indeed, another year down the crapper. I have a hard time imagining that anyone can look back and feel particularly good about 2021. The pandemic seems to have gained momentum, current events were miserable, disturbing or both, and people are clearly tired of it all. What an utter dumpster fire.
