Gaming in the Palace
|
|
We’ve just added a new show to our list this year. We’ve signed up to attend the new Tabletop Gaming Live event run by the Miniature Wargames magazine team at Alexandra Palace on the 29th and 30th of September. It’s the first time we’ve committed to a two-day event, so we’ve yet to work out […]

Bolt from the Blue
|
|
I recently posted about my Lightning Division’s ill-fated debut on the tabletop and their defeat at the hands of the Zaporoskiye Regiment. Regardless of their performance (and believe me, they’re out for revenge) they look striking in their blue/grey/yellow camouflage, so I thought it was time for a photo parade now that the wrecks have […]

Big Wheels
|
|
Today, another seven new 15mm vehicles aimed at Hammer’s Slammers:The Crucible hit the website. To be strictly accurate, they’re actually seven configurations of the same vehicle family – the Centurion Large Transport Vehicle. The Centurion is a large multi-role wheeled vehicle system designed around a common family of components. Each vehicle is composed of multiple […]

Base Over Apex
|
|
Next off the 15mm conveyor belt are three new wheeled vehicles – the Odyssey, Catapult and Broadsword. The primary users of the first two are the Apex Dragoons, while the Broadsword is much more widely used, being fielded by the Han Black Banner Brigade and the Hindi Army amongst others. The Odyssey is a medium-sized […]

Struck by Lightning
|
|
A couple of weeks’ ago I had the good fortune to play a game of Hammer’s Slammers:The Crucible against author John Treadaway. I fielded two detachments of the Lightning Division (infantry and tank platoons) from the updated list, while John had a Zaporoskiye Heavy Assault detachment, both with some slight tweaks. After turn one it […]

New Tracks
|
|
I’ve recently been painting a couple of 15mm Lightning Division detachments for Hammer’s Slammers:The Crucible; these are both upgraded units after the division re-equipped with blower tanks. Some LD units still field the older tracked vehicles, and we’ve now released vehicle options that will allow you to field a pre-upgrade LD force (with a bit […]

Recce Thunderbolt
|
|
Today sees the start of a minor deluge of new 15mm Hammer’s Slammers releases, spread out over the next couple of weeks. First off the production line is the Br64/68 Viking half-track, used by both the Thunderbolt Division and the Wolverines mercenary units. The Thunderbolts use the Br64 Viking armed with a heavy support weapon […]

Salute Video
|
|
Robin Fitton of Rottenlead Publishing (Imperial Skies/Gruntz) fame had a chat with me a Salute recently and has put up a 6-minute video (mercifully I’m only waffling over the start of it, the rest is him panning over most of the stand showing many of our models). Click below to see the video.

Die Luftschiffflotte

|
The German Aeronef Fleet is the latest one to be updated, with the existing battleship and battlecruiser models replaced with new designs. In addition, there are two new models, the Derfflinger class Battlecruiser and Weser class Carrier. All of the new models are digital sculpts featuring resin hulls with metal fittings. Turrets are now separate […]

Furious Joins the Fleet
|
|
Having replaced all of the British Aeronef capital ships earlier this year, it’s now time for the carrier aviation side of the fleet to get a makeover. Joining the fleet today is the Furious class aircraft carrier, a long, slender vessel with a full length flight deck. The ends of the hangar deck are open […]
