We tip our hat to the enduring "loot the post-catastrophe fantasy city" skirmish wargame genre, featuring Mordheim, Frostgrave, Port Royal (not really fantasy, but close enough), and the upcoming Black Death City. Any other good examples you can think of?

Ah gotcha. We're mostly playing homebrews and indie games these days. I'm pretty oblivious to what's going on with GW.

Have they gone out of fashion? I was not informed. Oh well, we soldier on regardless!

Me: "I sold some Tallarn blister packs on eBay today."

Wife: "That's great! What are we going to do with the money?"

Me: "Umm, yeah. About that..."

So the banana-man was sold under the name of "Gareth," but does anyone remember what the survivor with a briefcase was called? I believe both figures were offered by Hasslefree Miniatures. Please and thank you!

Waxing nostalgic about the brilliant candy-colored Codexes of the early to mid β€˜90s, and the subsequent jarring pivot to much darker imagery.

A photo from the camera roll, taken on this day, two years ago. Glorious 2nd edition cover art.

Rented this on Amazon the other day. So happy to see Mordheim, Trench Crusade, 1490 Doom, 28 Mag, etc., all get some screen time. Currently listening to the awesome soundtrack. Heh. youtu.be/4r0wI7m79Mc?...

Holiday candy was 90 percent off at the market, so I may have spent $6 to buy 15 individual containers of Christmas Story sexy lamp PEZ-like pellet treats. Because I wanted the crates, apparently. Not sure what to do with all those suspicious-looking orange pills though.

Ogryn! Or is it Ogryns? I’ve seen it spelled both ways in the official sanctioned periodical. Anywho, back in the day, most of your Imperial Ogryn were primitive savages from feral worlds. Which was the style at the time.

It’s been roughly a quarter century (!) since I last visited Black & Read. Their collection of new and used RPGs is insane.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

Yep. That tracks.
