Astonishingly cool bit of rare RPG/CCG history right here!

Draft manuscript of the unpublished Magic: The Gathering RPG in development at Wizards in the mid-90s

For me it was a brilliant continuation, but the timing of the series- global infections etc - was not ideal!

I know we all know that Kingdom is never coming back, but the fact that @netflix.com have still not officially cancelled the show, even after 5 years, is wild.

The despairing threat of hope!

Always enjoy a Jon Green adventure and the Dystopian Age is a great setting so I’m thoroughly looking forward to this one!

A brand new Jonathan Green gamebook set in the dystopian age? Yes please! Looking forward to checking this out properly!

Many thanks to Warcradle Studios for sending me over a copy of Valiant to have a play with!

I’m quite partial to the Sea Elves at the moment, but there are some Marauder Undead and Chaos Dwarf models that keep calling to me!

Alas, not yet. Definitely a topic I’d like to drill into at some point though!

Some of those Marauder minis are absolute classics; so many cool ranges!

I just found out that a collection of early John Blanche artworks were recently featured on the auction show Dickinson’s Real Deal.

I’m not surprised the traditional auctioneers had no feel for their value, but an initial offer of just Β£800 was wild. And the winning bid was only Β£10k. Astonishing!

A - Sculptor Nick Lund joined Citadel in the mid-80s and his Chronicle range continued to be produced as a Citadel β€˜brand’ from 1985. In 1987 Bob Olley joined Citadel to launch Iron Claw Miniatures. Marauder was created by Trish Carden and Aly Morrison under Bryan Ansell in 1988 and Forge World launched in 1998

An Oldhammer-style minis Kickstarter reached out and asked if I think they’re cool would I mention them to other folks? And I think they’re cool!

Heavy Metal Hordes, particularly the chaos goblins & animal Beastmen, looks ace! And very classic Citadel/Warhammer

There can surely be no honest & legitimate justification for the Nurse in Dead by Daylight, right?

Sure she’s hard to learn, but she’s also utterly game breaking by design. It’s absurd!

Monarch season 2 started reasonably well for me. I enjoyed the popcorn fun of S1 so hopefully things continue well this time around!

On a related note, the Warhammer Film Club's halloween special last year tackled Color Out of Space and I was asked for my favourite Lovecraft adaptation. I realised I hadn't seen many so I am trying to correct that!
