North Star Figures has announced that they are releasing Oathmark: Battles of the Lost Age ahead of schedule. They are worried that if the U.K. government might force them into a total shut them, due to the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak. So rather than sit on their hands for months, they've decided to get the product out early before. Oathmark is a fantasy, massed battle, "rank-n-flank" game in the vein of Warhammer Fantasy Battles, The Ninth Age, or Saga: Age of Magic. But I think it offers a simplicity that WHFB and T9A are lacking. I've been watching this games development with eager anticipation for a while now. Joseph A. McCullough is the guy that created Frostgrave and he's been wiring a design blog over at Osprey Publishing where he's talked about his design goals, the very clever combat system, and the really innovative kingdom creation system.

Don’t touch me when my paint is wet. You wouldn’t like me when my paint is wet.

Those aren’t nightmares. They’re a Calling! Grandfather Nurgle wants you to join the family.

Happy 100th birthday to Toshiro Mifune. A man who, despite having been dead for 23 years, is still more effortlessly badass and undeniably cool than any five Hollywood stars combined.

When in doubt, check Etsy.

“Feminism! Escapism! Retcons! Legal Battles over Trademarked Names! By your powers combined, I am Captain Marvel!”

Crossbones is done. It’s a remarkably simple pose, but it packs a lot of punch, very evocative of the best comic art in the way it’s a static pose but still shows dynamic movement... without being insanely over-the-top. (Citadel should take notes. Less is more, Gee Dubs. Less is more.)

Finished off today, but started last week: Ultron Started today, hope to finish this week: Captain Marvel and Crossbones Running Tally Assembled: All 10 Marvel Crisis Protocol starter minis; Started: Captain Marvel, Crossbones; Completed: Black Widow, Iron Man, Red Skull, Spider-Man, and Ultron; Papercraft MCP Terrain Planned: The Hulk, More MCP Terrain, Necromunda Enforcers

That’s Blood Bowl!

It’s my petty revenge.

That’s not a Shadow Seer, it’s a Callidius Assassin cleverly disguised as a Shadow Seer.

They’re right there behind the Lictor, duh.

You lie! I know Tau Stealth Suits when I (don’t) see ‘em!

Just found this over at On Tabletop (formerly known as Beasts of War): a free Dragon’s Rest STL file for a cool sci-fi ship. Sort of looks like Serenity if it was piloted by The Mandalorian.

Currently in the process of changing the family internet plan to something with faster speeds. ISP pricing bears no resemblance to anything predictable by either free-market capitalism, feudal mercantilism, nor socialist controlled economic models. If Lewis Carroll, H.P. Lovecraft, and Franz Kafka collaborated they could not have created something more nonsensical, madness inducing, and bizarrely counter-productive.

We’ve had one consumption of all bio-mass on the planet, yes. But what about second consumption of all bio-mass?

I’ve found Aggressors to be incredible, but since I play Imperial Fists they might not be as effective for Ultramarines as they are for the sons of Dorn... So no special boltgun shenanigans for you.
