There are some awesome miniatures in the new Halo expansions from Mantic Games, especially if you're a fan of the classic Halo from the Xbox days. Additionally, Black Death City, a potential replacement for the classic Mordheim, should begin to turn plenty of heads. With its nods to the classic Games Workshop skirmish game, could this be a new place for you to take your mercenaries, ratmen and shambling Grimdark horrors?

Friday again?!
yeah … how did that happen ?
What happened
😁 🤞🏻
Thank you gentleman for the weekly update. BDC looks promising, pehaps have to dig out the old Skaven warband again.
“Hold your whist”! That’s the first time I’ve heard ‘whist’ outside of The Lambton Worm.
you need to visit Ireland more 😉
Nice one 🙂
I am still waiting for my previous order to start in Halo Flashpoint. I have made a promise to get the Hunters if they come out so I guess I have no choice and place a new order.
Peachy already has a vid out about Black city death and is going to do some of his style content with it.
The Red Caps have that right amount of fun with dangerous. I am curious what will come next for Warcrow as this is the last faction to be released.
Black Death City sounds really interesting. Looking forward to having a read through those rules.
I’ll have to check out BDC. I missed Mordheim first time around and I really love the idea of playing that kind of campaign based game with a few friends. If only everyone I knew wasn’t at that awkward stage of life where they have demanding jobs, young kids, and no free time. Its a shame civilization doesn’t look like it’s going to last long enough for us to move beyond that. Not that we’ll ever be able to afford to retire before we die anyway.
Another weekend comes
Following Blck Death City with interest
Right. Let’s see what to buy this week then 😁
