Doggone Good Minis

So I eager awaited the arrival of the postlady today, as my kickstarter reward for the Dungeons & Doggies campaign was delivered.  I did a short unboxing video to try it out.  I know it's awful, but I don't care I posted it anyways.


Please be kind in your comment, and I'll try and add more video content to the site once I get the whole thing more streamlined.  Catch you all later.

It's Nice to See Some Chaos Love

So, in Warhammer 40000, there are some old and well established armies that have been in sore need of an update.  Think of the Eldar, Dark Eldar, Tau, and Chaos Space Marines.  Prior to 8th edition, these armies hadn't seen a huge improvement in any significant way, with many HQ and elite options still being resin-only casts or even metal.  This is a problem for sales.

You see, no one wants to purchase miniatures that look ancient for a brand new army.  They want them to look as cool as all their other miniatures.

So to get to the point of my article, it's been nice to see the new chaos space marine miniatures in the Blackstone Fortress and Shadowspear boxes, and with other hints at updates to more of the range with the rest of the Vigilus campaign.  It feels like Games Workshop might care about keeping their player base, not just adding new people.

So, as these new models emerge, my Black legion and Crimson Slaughter forces will swell, and maybe we'll see a few more chaos armies on the table in the future.
