Identifying ‘Penny Dreadfuls’

My hyper focus over the past few days is tracing the origins of my cheap Deathzap army men of choice or Penny Dreadfuls as the Man of Tin calls them. I’ve given them code names for ease of identification if you want to help me out in the comments. A somewhat simple example is below: […]

Crusage: The Battle of The Rift

The forces of Hell freshly emerge from the great rend in reality where the city of Jerusalem once stood. Now they begin their own damned crusade against mankind. Can the splintered forces of humanity rise to the occasion and save the world? Rolling a D12 and consulting the Bolt Action 2 Rulebook led me to […]

Elemental Knights

Sometimes I just do things for fun, strange I know. Ever since I was a kid playing with toy knights on my bedroom floor I’ve loved the plate armour look.

Mechanics Lab: Knight Fight

As the sun slowly rose over the grassy plain, two bands of armoured warriors readied themselves to draw blood, to feel steel bite through armour and flesh, and to fall into eternal obscurity or taste the immortal glory of legendary victory. Also there were paint pots nearby and some unfinished Death Guard models that I […]
