Fortress of Redemption

Posted by admin on Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I put together the Fortress of Redemption last night.  I have seen Beasts of War do their build video and was impressed by the scale of this Fortress, but was actually surprised by how large this model actually is.  It was fairly easy to build with a lot of larger pieces that all fit together [...]

Confrontation: Isle D’Spare

Posted by admin on Friday, January 29th, 2010

I am almost finished making my Confrontation Campaign.  I decided to call it Isle D’Spare.  I did a write up of the rules, but as of this posting…the game it’s self isn’t quite ready yet.  You can see what I’m doing here:
Instructions
Go ahead and tinker around in there if you’d like.  When it’s time to [...]

Metal Figures

Friday, February 5th, 2010 - Privateer Press, Reviews

As most of you know I got started in mini gaming with AT-43 and Confrontation from Rackham.  They are both pre painted plastic miniatures.  When I discovered the game Warmachine, it was so fantastic that I decided I’d give the hobby aspect of the game a try.  It was a rewarding experience for me to [...]

Monday, January 25th, 2010 - Confrontation, Featured, Reviews

I cracked open all the new releases of the Ram Army that were released this month and set them up for a photo shoot.  These pictures are representing all the current Ram releases that came out this January.  I am very happy with how they turned out.  I have been anticipating this army for quite [...]

First Confrontation Game

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010 - Battle Report, Confrontation, Featured, Reviews

I played my first Confrontation game tonight.  It was Lions Battlebox vs the Wolven Battlebox.  This is my first game of Confrontation, and as there are no rules experts around me, I had to plug away at it on my own.  There is an awful lot to remember (like most games I’m finding out).  The [...]

Game Review: Confrontation

Sunday, January 17th, 2010 - Confrontation, Featured, Reviews

A game that I have been collecting now for a few years is Rackham Entertainments Confrontation: The Age of the Rag’Narok.  I was first introduced to Mini Gaming by getting into Rackhams other game AT-43.  Naturally, I decided to check out Confrontation as well.  A bit of history first.
Confrontation was the brain child of Rackham [...]

If you are a player of Privateer Presses Warmachine, then you no doubt have been hearing of the new updated rule book Warmachine Prime MKII.  If you are in the other camp of those who have been aware of the game, but have passed it up for one reason or another, then perhaps it’s time [...]

Building a Force

Friday, January 8th, 2010 - 40k, Featured, News, Reviews

I have begun putting together my Space Marines from the list I came up with.  It’s an interesting process.  I am enjoying the customization of the models to match what I came up with on my list.  But it does lead to an interesting question.  In the Mega Force box there are 20 Tactical Marines.  [...]
