We take a look at some cool 3D set-ups for Space Hulk and give you some helpful suggestions as to where you might want to look when building your own in the face of another release of this premier Genestealer hunting game from Games Workshop.
Time for another look into the past as the guys get to grips with the Armoured Rifle Platoon for your mid to late war American forces in Flames of War. This great little piece looks to be a must have for anyone playing the U.S armies.
Space Hulk is, arguably, one of the most popular board games of the past three decades. It has gone through three versions since it first appeared, helped to influence the main game of 40k and has a special place on the shelf for many gamers. With the new version just around the corner, we thought we'd step in the Beasts of War TARDIS and go back in time to see just how this classic has come along.
We're unboxing the Imperatus Heavy Myrmidon for Warmachine and the Retribution of Scyrah! See what we think of this real beast of a miniature and what tactics it might be able to employ on the battlefield!
We continue work on the Dropzone Commander Reaver Gunship where Romain adds the final bloody details and some creepy eyes! It's time to finish up this epic paint scheme!
So while we all run out and pre-order what is one of the most magnificent products Games workshop has released in the last five years, I know one or two of you in the community, will be wondering about the motivation behind this release.
Space Hulk is back and will be hitting pre-orders this coming weekend. Terminators Vs Genestealers are duking it out once again in a repackaged version of the 2009 game with some additional content!
