Darren has joined the challenge this month to make us a legitimate entry to Dreadtober with not one but two primaris dreads. Our week 1 post is here. tOther Despite being distracted… Read More »
I do love a good hobby event and Dreadtober is no exception! The blog for the event is once again live and crewed by none other than Mordian 7th himself. The event premise is simple; through October you build and paint a Dreadnought like model. Although what constitutes that has grown and changed over the… Read More »
As anyone who knows me is aware I am a fan of Imperial Knights. I have really enjoyed putting together and painting several Knight kits, as well as an Archeron and a Castigator.

The game: Dixit The publisher: Libellud The designer: Jean-Louis Roubira I thought for my maiden voyage into the capricious waters of board game reviews that it would be a good starting point to discuss one of my personal favourites. Dixit comes across as a little bit childish on first appearance, with its green, grassy scoring… Read More »
As I have been asked for my Iron Warriors list for Warhammer 40K I thought I might as well put it up for discussion. I am no good at competitive 40K and this isn’t really designed for that, but feel free to point out the glaring errors. The list is built around models I have… Read More »
While I have been busy preparing a new space for airbrushing I noticed I have not out up my Iron Warriors recently. Turns out I had more than I remember. Hence this showcase. Iron Within Thankfully this army can work in both Warhammer 40K and the Horus Heresy. Chaos has always been a draw for… Read More »
