Awesome stuff @tomjmegan! Is that all of your kickstarter set or extras as well? Can’t wait to see what you do with this Tom.

After a quiet few weeks hobby time I made it to Joy of Six show at Sheffield yesterday. Great to see so many lovely 6mm games underway. Enthusiasm suitably restored! #wargaming

Richard. Sorry to hear you are wrapping up the business but entirely understandable in the circumstances. I’ve bought a fair bit of stuff from you over the last couple of years and I’ll miss your great products and service. Sorry I didn’t get my purchases painted to help promote your content more πŸ˜…

From humble beginnings to the biggest 6mm show in the world! Had so much fun and met so many great people in the hobby over the last 12 years. The Joy of Six, 13th july in Sheffield. I will try to make an effort, perhaps you could do too by reposting this? More here www.joysofsix.co.uk

Nice find on the mat. I wish someone would come and help me with my pile of shame lol. You and Beth sound like the wargaming stash A-team.

Every time I watch this movie I have an urge to stand on the prow of a boat and yell β€œOdin!” into the fog 🀣

Just started reading this. I am only 100 pages in but it has me hooked already. You can say what you like about GW prices and their game rules and commercial practices but the 40K lore they’ve created and continue to expand through their Black Library is so atmospheric and entertaining.

Excellent Tom. Yes I have a copy of the game so can provide the physical game components.

Thanks for sharing this Tom. It would be great to get a game of this with you sometime when you are in UK. I’ve not played my copy yet but had a read through of the rules. I love the ammo/logistics mechanic and how it can influence planning and decision making.

Douglas Hill’s Last Legionary series got me into reading Sci Fi as a 10 year old. So good. A lone warrior from a destroyed world armed with an indestructible titanium skeleton and accompanied by his trusty alien pterodactyl on a quest for revenge against an evil empire.

I didn’t realise it was Indy Bookshop Week. I might take a run to @scarthinbooks.bsky.social near Matlock tomorrow.
