Could you get the truck nuts video done for April 1? That seems like a safe way of hedging your bets.

Some of them do! Mostly the ladies on television, tho. TV networks seemingly not ready for boy smooches in their pantomime stunt shows.

 A decayed goblin skeleton in black robes stands in a woodland scene. A gigantic red cap mushroom sprouts from the cap of its robes and smaller mushrooms are growing from inside the hanging skeletal jaw. The goblin holds a giant scythe that is covered in bright green lichen. A spiders web is being strung between the blade tip and the handle. The wooden base has a collection of different mushrooms sprouting from it.Β

Reminder that Firearms existed in Medieval Europe before full plate armour.

If you've got a medieval-fantasy setting that features plate armour, it is absolutely NOT immersion-breaking to include early firearms.

Why would lists be important? The game designers will have built a balanced game where you can just pick the models you like the lore or visuals of and be fine, right?

Figuring out how to incorporate scenery elements and basing material in concert with the @handiworkgames.bsky.social backdrop books is proving to be a lot of fun.

Obviously a lot of these miniatures would benefit from the 'right' base but they each fit well enough for a few tests!

Oh, I’d absolutely _like_ a Green govt, and will aim for it, but sometimes you suck up the less than ideal. I’d take that coalition over Tories or Reform any day.

Slooow start to 2026, here’s my first. She’s another adventurer type rather than a particular faction or cult. She probably has a a gorilla vest on under that armour. Shown with her fellow relic reclamation operatives. She’s an upcoming Dragon Bait, all her lovely friends are @fenrisgames.com

Some players do. I think what’s probably more accurate is that you want your system to match your players preferences and play styles, or they’ll get frustrated.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.
