Hi everyone, I'm Matt!

I've been hammering wars since 94 and haven't yet really achieved anything significant with it apart from having a great time.

Ex GW staff, I now exist in the space between GW skirmish games and other systems.

Back home after a glorious lunch, Tess is napping off the food before the inevitable cheese dinner.

I used acrylic paints and there are all these goblins and a bee. Goblins love bees.

Happy Christmas Bluesky friends!

My wish for you all today is that you eat too many roast potatoes yet find room for cheese later*

*vegan alternatives are available, probably. Check your house for full t's & c's. Options may vary per homestead.

Today i played Old World with my best friend @cyanid32600.bsky.social.

The table wasnt the right size, the terrain was salvaged together. We used half painted armies and new units.

Its the best game of Old World ive played, took me right back to being 11 years old - full nostalgiahammer

Starting to look into #nohammer26, so far im definitely going to be dabbling with:

- Arcworlde by @warpminiatures.bsky.social
- Konflikt 47 by @warlordgames.com

So #nerdlings, has anyone got some non GW systems they really love? Let me know!

Genndy Tartakovsky shared test footage from his film ‘The Black Knight’. It follows a knight who controls a 20ft suit of armor. Sony isn't sure there's an audience for the film and haven’t greenlit it yet.

After Kpop demon hunters success I don't understand why Sony are dragging their feet on this!

Thats half the Arcworlde starter set painted, we'll be playing Troll Bridge in no time! #wepaintminis

Arcworlde on the painting desk, Guards of Traitors Toll on the build and Konflikt 47 on pre order.

After having a chat with some buddies, I think im inspired to do a no GW year next year (except for old world, I have TO duties.)

Can't think of a fun hashtag yet, but could be super super fun
