Hi!

I am mostly collecting Warhammer AoS and sometimes playing Spearhead and Warcry with my partner. As much as she likes Spearhead/Warcry rules and gameplay, she is not the biggest fan of the models as those must be "cute". I am looking for something that could potentially hit that "cute" spot. We do have some Moonstone minis but these are quite detailed for her to paint (and I am ending on painting duty because of that) and also we both like gameplay including rolling some dice. We both like cutthroat rules and open conflict so I am just looking for game with "cute" models.

Thanks for your help!

So I was thinking of getting into Blkout, the game models look great and the gameplay seems interesting. But im a bit on the fence because it markets itself heavily as a "ultra tactical realistic military game" and thats fine but as someone whos been on the internet for a while 9/10 times these tactical, "realistic", milsim game communities have some of the worst most edgy losers in them and the people who make the product are with them or just let them go on with it. From the bit of research I could do it seems most of the Blkout community is like in a discord server I think.

As someone who likes to interact with the communities of things I like I was wondering if the Blkout community has a bad rep. Like if any wargaming drama happens people go "its probably from 40k or trench crusade fans" as I hear pretty negative things about those communities. I know I can play without interacting with the fans of stuff mostly but I feel like its a big part of the hobby for me at least.

(also if people can say how they feel about the gameplay itself that would be appreciated)

Mainly looking on what to improve, what terrain pieces I should add , etc.

All Hell Let Loose Great War in 6mm. Canadian troops try to drive in the German defenders on the Passchendaele Ridge, Nov 1917. Despite following the creeping barrage and actually getting into the German defence, the Canadians were held at bay and forced to retire to their start lines...

Got my first tabletop wargame. I've dabbled in 40k and Trench, but my heart longs for Antiquity. Took a few weeks to find everything online. If you guys have any good SOLO antiquity wargames please let me know. Ideally in the time period of the Peloponnesian War to the fall of Rome. Alexander, Cesear, Hannibal, Pompey, etc. I ask for Solo because my area has no community beyond 40k and my friends dont fan girl over hammer and anvil tactics like I do.

What games focus on simulating artillery or indirect fire as the most important element to gameplay? How did they make it primary? What about the mechanics of the simulation related thematically to artillery?

(I’m a little high and imagining a more board game style thing where players manage competing artillery teams.)

A couple of weeks ago I bought (what I thought at the time) an entire wargame for the price of five space marines.

This week I finished painting up all the models on the set, and these were my thoughts.

The big brute with his weapon options- heavy gun, lighter gun, and missile launcher. Painted in the style of the old Paul Donner artwork.

Finally finished and based up these late Roman heavy cavalry! Minis are from Northstar (Crusader), very simple and nice to paint. LBMS transfers. Next up is probably some Zona Alfa stuff.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my latest weekend project fresh from the basement printer. I’ve been working on expanding my infantry proxy range, and the Elite Scouts are finally done and cured. I was planning to use them as Kasrkin.

And with this last Unit I now have a complete range of infantry units ready for Armageddon!

I wanted to put a heavy focus on the characters for this squad, so the Sergeant and the Sniper got some extra love with their poses and gear to make them stand out in a standard infantry line.

They are fully single-piece and scaled for standard grimdark tabletop games.

If you want to support a solo basement-creator or need some fresh scouts for your regiment, you can find the STLs on Cults3D or Etsy under TileLabs Gaming.

Let me know what you think of the designs!

Have a nice weekend!

I see these on noble knight and I fell in love with the idea. Especially as someone who could never get into card games. Bad news for me all the collectible miniatures games I like are discontinued. Heroclix looks alright but are there any others or is that really it. Allies and Axis looked sick.

I decided to paint these as an Ii -clan army, mainly to have a reason to go for a unified colour scheme. Also, I think red armour looks cool. No snapped spears yet!

I have a solid Star Wars Miniatures (Wizards of the Coast)lot, all brand new with cards that I’m looking to sell for 400$. Here’s the list below.

Hi all, I'm just looking for some advice, experience and insight.

Me and my wife are looking to open up a small 17m2 friednly local ganmes store in the North of England. There are no competitir stores for 20 miles south and over 35 miles North. We have scope out a site that woudl cost less than £350pm to rent, operate and maintain which has led us to look to turn our interests into a busniess.

Given the low running cost and expected magins of around 35-40% does this seem viable?

We are looking to have a large community focus with painting workshops, demos, fun game nights and more for people of the local areas to enjoy.

The town itself has about 7000 residents and now has heavy tourist footfall especially in the summer. The shop would be at the very top of the main high street in the town also.

The main draw would be Warhammer but we are also lokking to stock bands such as Bolt Action, Konflikt 47, Trench crusade, Army Painter, Vallejo, pokemon, Magic the gathering, Lorcana etc and have converstations startted with stockists and suppliers.

Any advice on this or people that have had a similar venture that could provide some info would be fantastic. We have loved getting back into the community of wargaming and board games and would love to give back while mainiting a viable business.

Thanks!

I dont mean a swarm mode or campaign engine but just a solo engine that can emulate a second player relatively well.

I love blkout setting-wise but i dont think the game would work well solo since small decisions can be really important and a solo engine cant be accurate to that degree.
