Betrayal at Calth: Enough to last through Christmas


Demand for a lot of things tends to always be underestimated, and the fear that the Betrayal at Calth box game will run out early is being very realistic. This looks like it might be high on the list for a lot of people to get a hold of.

Dropfleet Commander Kickstarter Update- Shaltari Starter Set!



Hawk Wargames has just updated their kickstarter again with information and a break down of the latest stretch goals and add-ons. Here is the latest information.

More Limited Exclusive Rules- The Tau Tidewall Counterstrike Cadre



Today Games Workshop released to pre-orders the individual Tau Tidewall segments and a new formation that includes the Tau Tidewall. The Tau Tidewall is really a beautiful model, and gives us some insight that we might get some new xenos fortifications in the future.

However, once again we are getting a limited rule set only available through the purchase of an expensive GW Bundle (without downloading, scanning, or copying from somewhere). It's one of those jabs to the ribs when a game company makes rules only available people wanting to purchase these large bundles.

Tau Tidewall and Seraphon Pre-Orders for AoS



This week's pre-order list is a big one for Games Workshop. It includes a the Tau Tidewall segments, and a full set of repacks for the Age of Sigmar.

Well, its finally here and Lizardmen are not dead. It's one of those huge fears that GW created with the End Times and the birth of the Age of Sigmar, that lizardmen would be no more.

Beyond that, the Shaltari are being unlocked and there is much more coming with more announcements tomorrow!!! .... pls be phr pics!!!!!

What's On Your Table: Daemon Prince


What's On Your Table: To Submit your work send up to 8 images to natfka@live.com

Here's one of my more recent projects - Daemon Prince Hakanor, master of the Chaos Warband Hakanor's Reavers. This was a fun experiment with lighting - I figured if the Reavers themselves had armour that cracked and melted like molten lava, the daemons they ally with or serve would look even fiery-er. So, here's my attempt at creating a fire/lava daemon.

Dropfleet Commander Kickstarter Updates!!!!!



Here is the latest update from Hawk Wargames regarding their kickstarter.......Expect this kickstarter to start off tomorrow around 2pm GMT.

Question about Raven Guard and Kauyon Rules.



A question and answer from a reader to Forgeworld regarding the new Kauyon rules for Raven Guard.

Betrayal at Calth Unboxing...



That was fast, and now everything is out. A full unboxing a great look at the new board game from Games Workshop is hitting. This really shows just about everything you need to see for the game.

Updated:.... The pics removed from the original site just a few moments ago. There are all over now though, so I have updated the link so that if you missed it you can still check out some of the pics.

Leaked Images Reveal Box Contents and Close Ups of the Sprues

Images from the box of Betrayal at Calth show us the full contents of the box. This is what is in there, including only 1 Contemptor. Its fully listed with a total of 38 miniatures. There are lots of close up pics of the sprues here.

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada- Ork Screenshots



Battlefleet Gothic: Armada has some new screenshots showing off a 40k favorite.... Orks! Nothing like an Ork ship ramming its opponents.

What's On Your Table: 30k Night Lords



What's On Your Table: To submit your work, email up to 8 images to natfka@live.com

The club I go to has been bitten by the 30k bug hard in the last couple of months.  Ever since I read the Night Lords trilogy I’ve always wanted a 30k NL army and when I read the Terror Assault RoW I had guidelines to stick to.  With that in mind, especially as to the scavenger like nature of the claws the ongoing output into the FOC is a mish-mash of armour types and weapons.  I’ve used almost everything from old metal rogue trader marines, FW armour kits, CSM kits and vanilla marine kits. The end result actually seems to work.

New Facelift: The Black Library and Warhammer Digital



The Black Library/ Warhammer Digital have had a new facelift. Go over and check it out.

War Zone Damocles: Kauyon Unvieled



It seems that the latest War Zone has already arrived for some lucky people, and the images are now starting to flow. check them out below.

Betrayal At Calth: Contemptor Leaked Image +


The Contemptor Dreadnought looks like a very static design compared to what we are used to, but hey, this is a board game. There are lots of cool things in here, and the weapon load outs are visible on the sprues we saw earlier and the image found below.

Dropfleet Commander



Dropfleet Commander is just a few days away.... Friday!!!!! For some reason my newsletters stopped coming, so I am behind a day on the latest Dropfleet. Now we get to see the pledge levels and what will be offered in the days to come. Definitely getting excited for this!!!!!

Imperial Armour 11 Eldar Corsair Rules



Now these are really interesting, especially the Eldar Vampire Raider being a Lord of War. Lots of cool things here, and right now I am grabbing coffee and doing some reading.

Some White Dwarf Leaked Images in English


Just a quick update on a few bits that are out there. Some White Dwarf Leaks in English, and of course a translated hint for next week.

What's On Your Table: World Eaters



What's On Your Table: to submit your work, email up to 8 images to natfka@live.com

I originally started it as a painting experiment. I couldn't paint reds or golds very well, and so I decided that the best way to learn was to paint an army using those colours. So being a fan of chaos (6k+ death guard most with forgeworld upgrades) I decided the followers of the blood God would be a good start. At the moment it's just infantry, but I'm currently finishing off a predator and a squad of bezerkers. In the end it will be ; Zhufor, Kharn, WE Dreadnought, 5 WE forge world terminators, 2x 8 man bezerker squads all with FW chainaxes and WE upgrades, 1 Predator, 2x Rhino and a Missile Havoc Squad with Heresy missile launchers and WE upgrades.

The latest information I have though is not yet definitive, and exactly as I get the info.... I will be on it and let you know what we are looking at.

Betrayal at Calth: Board Game with no rules for Xenos


I know a lot of us are really looking forward to the rumored Horus Heresy game being supported in GW stores. This release though, rumored for November 7th, looks like it's just the box set that we have been hearing about. Here is the latest information coming out now..... most likely from the black boxes arriving.

Black Boxes Arriving- Horus Heresy?



Today I have heard a report of Black Boxes arriving in stores. The oddity is that a Contemptor Dreadnought was inside. The Horus Heresy is coming it seems, and already people are getting ready.

What's On Your Table: Chaos Warband



What's On Your Table- To send in your projects send to natfka@live.com up to 7 images.

I have been working on my Armies on Parade project for a little over a month now. This Landraider is one of my best projects to date.  I love the way it turned out.  The lava look on the board turned out better than I had imagined as well.  My first attempt had my daughters cat drop a hairball on it overnight.  Everyone's a critic.  So I cleaned it up and started fresh, and came up with this pattern...which then found its way onto the landraider, some bikes, terminators...In fact I think my entire CSM army will have this look to it now.  Tomorrow I will see if all my work has paid off.

Full Release List Verified for This Week



Now we have the full list with release dates, prices, etc. Once again its a big list out here for this week.

This Week's Pre-Orders from GW...... It's a Big List


It's a Massive list of repacks, many moving to direct only. Of course there is also the Battletome Seraphon, and Tau Tidewall fortifications (just a break down of the Tidewall Rampart). Its a big list, with no Betrayal of Calth in it. So this is the quiet before the storm.

GW Confirms!!! The Betrayal at Calth is Coming!!!!



The Betrayal at Calth Miniatures game has been revealed by Games Workshop!!!! That's right, the Horus Heresy game we have been talking about for months.

Kauyon Leaked Images and Information. White Scars and Raven Guard

Rumors are going around for next week, including more Tau Scenery releases, a Seraphon Repack, and future releases for Damocles.

I want to give a huge thanks to the Eternal Crusade Team, especially Nathan, Katie, and Garrett, who helped put this together with the Captains Codes. I dont have to tell you that they donated a large amount of codes for us, 10 in all. I hope they found some of our suggestions worth their effort.

A Hint to the Fate of the Missing Lizardmen



Lizardmen may not quite yet go the way of the Dinosaurs. There has been a sighting of a new Skink Box!!!!!

Lizardmen Vanished.... Mass Extinction? or Repack?



Where did all the Lizardmen go? Quite literally the only thing left under the Lizardmen heading is their Warscroll Compendium. A total repack is most likely the candidate, but to have everything just simply disappear?

The Mantle of Heroes: Tau Release Video



The Tau videos just hit in my part of the world, and its always good to see these models up close from all the angles. Also shown in the new video is the new updated Tau Codex and Special Limited Edition Codex.

Giveaway Over and done Eternal Crusade Giveaway Number 2: Input


Giveaway Over and done I talked to two of the Eternal Crusade team a couple days ago, Nathan and Katie.

That is the whole purpose behind behind this alpha, to create the game that we want and have been dying to play for years and years.

Details from This Week's White Dwarf


There is quite a a few releases coming this week from Games Workshop, and we have a few details for the them from the latest White Dwarf. The new Tau Commander, the datacards for both White Scars and Ravenguard, and much more and in the latest details.

Tau Tidewall Rampart Review


The Tau Tidewall Rampart looks fantastic, and being the first Xenos Terrain kit it has me pretty excited to see what else GW has in store for us. I have not yet gotten to see one in person, and this has me a little wary of it, especially with a moving piece of terrain. However, my first impressions are good, as GW is trying to push their boundries.

Gametrust has just done a review of the new release, and I think it's definitely worth checking out.
