I first started my Tyranid army tenuously, with 10 Termagants here, a Winged Tyranid Prime there. I just wanted enough to proxy the Tyranid Combat Patrol as released in White Dwarf 497. However, as I painted my models I was surprised to discover that Tyranids were actually, puzzlingly, impossibly...
One of my favourite games is Dungeoneer by Thomas Denmark and published by Atlas Games. Dungeoneer is sold as card decks, but it's really a board game. Some cards are board tiles, and others are monsters, items, and power-ups. I own 5 Dungeoneer decks, and I'm reviewing them each. In this post...

I'm playing through the missions in the Pariah Nexus Crusade book, in order of appearance. The missions don't have to be played in order, and in fact the book provides random tables for selecting a mission to play. I want to play through each one, though, so I'm just starting at the first in print...
I needed some generic monsters for a campaign I was running. I was running campaigns back to back, and I wanted to make them feel distinct from one another. I didn't want to re-use the same 2 enemy armies I'd already used, and I'd already used an army that normally is an ally as an opposing force. I...
I ran a Warhammer 40,000 Halloween campaign using a custom detachment of zombie miniatures from Zombicide. There were 3 scenarios, with a failsafe scenario in case the Astra Militarum detachment falters. In the campaign, the Astra Militarum survived each scenario, so there wasn't a need to play...

For some RPG players, the concept of building a character seems like an unecessary chore. Sometimes I agree, and I happily admit to a healthy appreciation of pre-generated characters. Because pregenerated characters are possible, some people might wonder why they would ever bother building a chara...

I was looking for some sci-fi soldiers for a game of Space Station Zero, and I stumbled upon Wargames Atlantic. They had a shipping centre nearby, so I decided to give them a try. The closest thing to generic sci-fi soldiers I could find, at the time, was their Iron Core product line, which then...

A few years ago a skate park got built across the road from my house. I'd always wanted to skate, but never learned how. With a skate park within a 45 second stroll, I figured I had no excuse not to take up a hobby that I'd been considering since childhood.
So I bought a skateboard and started ska...
