The Warhammer Cafe: Coming Soon to North America



Hmmmm. Perhaps the few new manager positions ive seen are attached to this? Very interesting, and if indeed one is coming to me... this will be new place to get coffee. I wonder if they will match up with my PNW Coffee requirements. Games.... Coffee..... Talking shop......

I will be very interested to see if one comes to the NW here in my neck of the woods, where places like Starbucks originated. We already have cafes that have live music, a real nightlife, good food, and amazing sweets. It looks like a huge challenge to break into the market here, and one I am willing to support if they can do it.

Battletome Preview: Legions of Nagash- Magic


Another preview for the Legions of Nagash. This time the Warhammer Community takes a good look at magic, which is exactly what anyone interested in Tomb Kings/ Nagash is interested in.

Battletome Preview: Legions of Nagash



I know a lot of people wanted to see several new releases for Nagash.... but I do say that I still really like the a lot of the current range. I recently was digging through countless sites looking for good Skeleton miniatures, and have had to keep coming back to Games Workshop's.

Anyhow, here is today's preview for the Legions of Nagash!

This Week's Rumour Engine Teaser


This week's Rumour Engine Teaser is up. I don't really have any comments on this on..... OK maybe just one. Probably the most boring of teasers. Please bring us a little more hype next week.

Games Workshop is this year really settling in with their new mode of interactions with the community and putting down in writing just how things will progress. While it often felt thrown together at the last minute and chaotic, it finally is settling down with order coming on top.

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

Hey man. Just got my five knights back from my good friend David over at Invested Painting. I wanted my favorite knight household represented, but in an unique way that I feel was captured perfectly. If you’d like to see more pictures you can find them on Invested Painting’s Facebook page where he has several detailed shots of the knights from assembly to finished product and display board. 

Daughters of Khaine. Amazing Models Coming.


These new Witch Aelves really are amazing, and I look forward to them coming, and of course to see how I can use them for conversion pieces (my real interest here). Some great detail in them.

The New Eisenhorn Model Revealed!!!



We had rumors of this a few days back, and now we not only have confirmations of its existence, but a pic as well!

Coming Next Weekend: Legions of Nagash + Malign Portents



Coming next weekend to pre-order is a full array of Death, with the Legions of Nagash and Malign Portents being the highlights of the week to come. Take a look.... it could be an expensive week.

Miniature Deals of the Week



There are some deals out there that are worth getting in on, and I am always looking for more when it come to my own miniatures. If there is a real good deal out there, whether it be bundles, discounts, or just something amazing...... I would really like to hear about it, and I know others would as well.

Dropfleet Commander and Dropzone Pre-Orders


Both Dropfleet and Dropzone have been since become part of the the TT Combat's lineup. While they are working on fielding the last bits of the Kickstarter, product is now up on the TT Combat Webstore. This is great news to keep the support for the game going.

Adeptus Custodes Limited Edition Codex unboxing


By the Emperors glorious grace, it has arrived! Here is my unboxing video for the Adeptus Custodes Limited Edition Codex, only 900 were printed. I wanted to share my experience and show off what you actually get in the box.








Big Day of Pre-Orders: Thousand Sons and Vertus Praetors


The Thousand Sons codex is now up for pre-orders alongside the Adeptus Custodes bikes. Finally getting a Thousand Sons codex is a big deal and something a lot of people have been waiting for years to get. The only question is whether or not other factions will get theirs.

Ep 229 Combat Phase podcast - Codex Thousand Sons pt 1


http://traffic.libsyn.com/combatphase/EP_229_-_Thousand_Sons_Codex_Pt_1.mp3

Ahem *taps mic*.... THOUSAND SONS CODEX!
We are stupidly excited and race against time (you'd think we'd learn by now but Ahriman's stubborness rubs off on us) to pump out a Codex: army review for those chomping at the bit. This is Kenny's current--and favorite--40K army and Shawn loves them too.

February White Dwarf Preview


February will be an interesting month as we move past the Adeptus Custodes and towards some xenos releases. However there is still a lot going on in the Age of Sigmar and other specialty games... so here is your preview from the Warhammer Community.

As the community gets a hold of early editions of the magazine, we will get more details.

Forgeworld: New Space Marine Doors


New sets of vehicle doors are available today from Forgeworld. Having Chapter specific doors makes a huge difference in the appearance on your army when fielded on the tabletop. Here is your chance to fill in some of the gaps youve been waiting for.

Large Number of Leaked Warscrolls for Legions of Nagash



The Legions of Nagash is coming soon for the Age of Sigmar, and today there are groups of Warscrolls being being found and collected from various places.

LVO 40k and AoS News.... No Asdrubael Vect.... and Much more.


No Asdrubael Vect model coming? Youve got to be kidding. While a codex for Dark Eldar is great, missing Asdrubael Vect is a major flaw. Already my Dark Eldar are collecting a lot of dust, and this is a rather sad turn of events.

There are other breaking bits, including some hints that Kroot may get something down the road. We will definitely be keeping an eye out for anything following that line of information.

Thousand Son Codex Preview: New Units



There are new units in the Thousand Sons Codex, the Tzaangors alongside the Grotesque Mutalith Vortex Beast. Today's preview digs into them
