Blood Angels debut: 9th place and a 2:1 finish
We love these little hobby milestones, especially when a new army starts to click on the tabletop.
We love these little hobby milestones, especially when a new army starts to click on the tabletop.
We had one of those small but very satisfying hobby moments this week: end3r spotted a beautifully painted Captain from Armageddon, done up as a Salamander, and immediately shared it with us because the style felt a bit familiar —...
Salamanders vs World Eaters in the Colosseum League Finale
We love those hobby nights that remind us how much terrain changes everything.
We had one of those very relatable hobby conversations this week: yes, that Kill Team looks amazing, but first we really should paint and build the pile of shame a bit more before buying another box.
Sometimes all it takes is one post to completely derail our painting plans in the best possible way.
We had one of those hobby updates that says a lot about where our gaming table is heading over the next few months: one campaign ended, a few new plans appeared immediately, and of course there are fresh models already...
Salamanders vs Tyranids in the Colosseum: two lightning-fast 500-point games
We love those hobby moments that start with one very specific question and then suddenly turn into an entire army plan.
This one was exactly the kind of game we love reporting on: Space Marines deciding that the biggest threat on the table was, in fact, other Space Marines.
Every now and then we end up talking less about who won and more about whether the game itself was actually fun to play. This time the spark was a discussion about a very specific kind of scenario: one where...
Sometimes army-building starts with grand strategy. Sometimes it starts with spotting a nicely painted second-hand transport online and thinking: honestly, this is cheaper than the box, and someone else already did the hard part. This week was definitely more of...
We’ve got another painting project rolling across the hobby desk: end3r is working through the remaining models from the Salamanders Combat Patrol for Colosseum.
Tournament evening: frustration, laughs, and objective play to the bitter end
Sometimes the best battle reports start before the first dice roll — with someone asking in chat whether anybody has the rules handy.
We love it when a game report arrives as a complete stream-of-consciousness brain dump, because somehow those are often the most fun to turn into a proper battle report. This time, end3r took his Salamanders into a King of the...
Sometimes army-building starts with careful planning, spreadsheets, and a long-term collecting strategy.
Yesterday end3r went to a Kill Team tournament at Xjoy, with a very realistic goal: learn something, survive three games, and ideally squeeze out one win. And honestly? Mission accomplished.
We had one of those very hobby-group moments this week: a quick invitation to a league game, a suspicious-looking 500-point list on the other side of the table, and immediate list-chat in the comments.
end3r kicked off his first King of the Colosseum league game for Warhammer 40,000, and honestly, this was supposed to be one of those educational beatings. You know the kind: we show up, get tabled, and at least come back...
