Oh that's interesting- feels like it covers the broader time range of the book better than the original Test Card Girl one did

I used to play a lot of UFS back in the day before the rebrand. Alas I don't think I'll be at your local game store anytime soon 🤣

Oh that's looking good! I like the idea of a midway balcony for a wizard or archers

Closest is probably the old "Christmas Marine" figures from early Rogue Trader era. It is the only one I can think of with a mug/tankard anyway

Star Trek Lower Decks #12 is out now! Which means my variant cover is out there, too. Go pick up a copy.
Comic book cover illustration for Star Trek Lower Decks #12. The logo STAR TREK LOWER DECKS is on the top of the image. Below are Kimolu and Matt dressed as Kirk and Spock from Star Trek IV The Voyage Home. The USS Cerritos is in the middle of the page moving right to left with a rainbow trail of warp behind it as it slingshots around a star. The bottom is an underwater scene with a pod of humpback whales swimming through coral reefs and other undersea life.

Quite possibly never nefore has one British politican gone on such a roller coaster.

Weird to think how differently things could have turned out if the Lib Dems had either not formed a coalition or had done so on stronger terms

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social asks Lord Heseltine about remarks he made at Conservative Party Conference.

That's one of the big appeals to 3D printers for me - doing proxies of stuff where buying physically would be impractical. (That and printing parts so spare torsos/heads/etc can get used elsewhere)

TBF it was going to be a bigger part of the game originally- including wanting to use Space Oddity and Ashes fo Ashes as opening/closing tracks

Statistically Backed Stereotypes for Each 40k Faction. Astounding. Motion for Deathwatch to be renamed to Hotwifewatch.

www.reddit.com/r/Grimdank/c...
Text tong to fit - it's a list of subreddit memberships for each of the 40k factions. Here's a sample... r/AdeptusCustodes: gundam (19.71), airforce (19.20), daytrading (16.56), sandersforpresident (9.82), centrist (6.93). Conclusion: Ex-military guys with schizophrenic politics. r/AdeptusMechanicus: pathfinder_rpg (14.05), adhdmeme (7.27), dankleft (6.07), theowlhouse (5.88), kerbalspaceprogram (5.39). Conclusion: Current stereotypes are pretty much correct. r/BloodAngels: preppers (15.98), airforce (15.74), menslib (9.04), asktrp (9.01), asktrumpsupporters (8.45). Conclusion: Black Templars got nothing on these guys.

The year is 2025. There are three social networks remaining. They are run by Dweeb Lowtax, Tweaker Lowtax, and Girlboss Lowtax. You have to pick at least one.

This amazing article from @vic-parsons.bsky.social via @wearequeeraf.com shows the absolute criminal state of trans healthcare in the UK.

Scotland has a 224 year wait for a first appointment. Yes, you read that right.

Revealed waiting times of all GICs in UK: Most Trans+ people in the UK will wait more than a third of their adult life to get an appointment, and some will never receive care

WHY DID THEY GENTRIFY THE AUDACITY LOGO
the regular audacity logo on the left (a waveform between two headphones) and the REAL NEW audacity logo on the right (flat style red headphones, where one of the headphones is a half-circle to fit with the rest of musehub's design Thing. It simultaneously looks extremely generic and like a sperm cell is flying out of a semicircle)

A few of the Bruhammer peeps play TOW and KT, you shouldn't struggle to get a game. (I have missed the last couple of editions of KT but there's some gorgeous minis there)

It's been mostly Necromunda for me lately although a couple of our gang have got the Konflikt 47 itch from visiting Warlord.

I help keep a gaming group together in Glasgow, but we do some occasional pan-Scottish meetups in Stirling and the like - depending on where you are based you should look up Bruhammer

(Currently mostly organise on Facebook but we are mooting a Discord)

I only just saw this Blood Bowl team Kickstarter - sculpted by a fellow Scot, I believe, judging bu their social media - and these look cracking!

This is the kind of stuff I want to roll from Secret League into my Bruhammer league

Renegade Minis @renegademinis.bsky.social · 21d
The Kickstarter for this project now has a sign up page, launching in November, sign up now to get notified.

www.kickstarter.com/projects/blu...

They can be played using the Secret League rules for Lumbria or as a proxy for humans or halflings, and there's still more to reveal
