So, I've decided to give #D&D 5e a go. I've read through both the 2014 and 2024 Players Handbooks, and I have to say that the 2024 book doesn't seem like D&D to me at all. While reading the 2014 character creation I was getting nice ideas for a character and everything seemed to click.

Came across these ships while looking for something else (always the way). The top row is possibly #Battletech and #RenegadeLegion and the second row maybe Battletech but I've no idea about the bottom two rows, do any of you old gronards out there have any ideas?

My 2nd hand copy of the #Worms board game arrived yesterday, and I had to get it all painted, so it was a bit of a late night! 😄

Since 40k was first released I've wanted a 'true scale' marine force. I loved the original black armoured Dark Angels, so I've decided to use Primaris and their ilk to create a DA force usable for 1st to 3rd ed. A bit of customising will be needed for things like heavy weapons.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I'm down with a touch of man-flu, being cold, wet, and windy isn't helping.
On top of that the weather isn't great either...

More #AgeofSigmar #Nighthaunt characters. I painted the army four or five years ago using Contrast paints but I've yet to play a game of AoS 😄

This is what I painted to use as the Black Coach for my #AgeofSigmar #Nighthaunts army. I changed the base to the correct size and added the Queen of Thorns figure.

First game of #WotC #StarWars Miniatures after so many years last night. I based the scenario on the Death Star escape, the Rebels had to get R2 off the end of the map which they managed as the Imperial player was concentrating on trying to take out the heroes 😄
