What's On Your Table: The Pig-God!
What's On Your Table: To submit your work, please send up to 8 pics to natfka@live.com
I was inspired to make this monstrosity after I saw Bruticus' amazing Dark Mechanicus Chimeric on Ex Profundis. When creating him, I wanted him to be able to pull double duty as both a "boss fight" for my current Mordheim Campaign (Serene Annihilation) and as a model for my own Mechnicus army. Therefore, he displays both elements of Mordheim and 40K.

A Look at Deadzone 2nd Edition
Article by Ed and Blake from Life After the Cover Save Podcast
This April, my podcast co-host and I were able to visit Mantic Miniatures headquarters. The lovely Ronnie Renton graciously let us tour the building and we got to see all kinds of awesome stuff that his company has been working on. He arranged a quick demo of Deadzone where Ed and I engaged in a fast and furious skirmish between the short, yet powerful, high-tech Forge Fathers and the ruthless military arm of the human Galactic Co-Prosperity Sphere – the Enforcers. To sum up our experience with the rules and models I can simply say: We were very impressed.

Ral Partha's Chaos Wars Dwarf, Undead, Troglodyte Miniatures
Ral Partha and Iron Wind Metals have launched a Kickstarter a few days back. It was funded in about 8 hours, but for many people like myself, I am just hearing about it now. I remember back to my first ever miniatures, which were Ral Partha from way back.
It takes some time to really sit down and explore what this kickstarter has available.

What If..... US vs Russia in Bolt Action
This is an excellent article by Warlord Games, directly related of course to Bolt Action. What if the Allied Forces had clashed into the Soviets at the end of WW2. While I don't think either side had the will to fight beyond what was needed to at that point, it wouldnt of taken much to spark what would of ended up being a very bloody battle at the end of the war.
New Details Emerge About Age of Sigmar "3 Ways to Play"
The Age of Sigmar will be coming up on its first year birthday this summer, and with it, a full points system along with a narrative game play option.

This one i use the old Tau commander that i bought damaged
I put in the spare chest armor and cold star back pack instead of old Resin part.
I also used shield and missiles attached to his left arm to represent similar type of weapon as farsight
I also don't like the way old commander stand as they always fall down. So I posted him in a position up right and make him like he skimming on a broken building

Age of Sigmar- Intel on the Narrative Format + Other Insights.
With the move to a point system and a very positive looking narrative system, the Age of Sigmar is looking like it will have a very nice upsurge of players. This is looking very good for the game, and at least in my mind, a good reason to start taking a fresh look at the game itself.

I have to say that the games I have played of Deadzone were a lot of fun. While it's only been about 5-6 games, each one showed a fast action game, that was extremely enjoyable.

Forgeworld and Specialist Games Rumors
A second set of rumors coming out of the forums sections of Something Awful, this one focuses on Forgeworld. Again, I have no idea on the validity of these rumors. It shouldn't be too difficult in the near future to get some intel to see if this is panning out.
Games Workshop Creates Army Bundles from Tournament Results
Games Workshop has armies bundles together that are "a battle proven" force. There are three of these from the South Coast Grand Tournament. This is in interesting way to move models. I will find this really interesting when this moves to 40k. GW watching tournament results? Nice
