Another weekend and another great event - this time it was a two day event in the form of Another Four Foot Snake thing. Last year I was one of the TO's for the event so it was great to be able to play this time. The List I made no secret that I was … Continue reading Another Four Foot Snake Thing Pt1
Yesterday saw my new army have its inaugural games at the King in the North tournament. I've had a Brotherhood army on the cards since early last year and after buying all the bits I needed for it... it sat on the shelf for 10 months. I kicked myself into gear at the start of … Continue reading King in the North 2018 Writeup
A long while back, I was very apprehensive about the RC providing recommended standard terrain heights for Kings of War. I felt that if they were to do that, then people wouldn’t play around with terrain heights and types and the variation from game to game would diminish in favour of the recommended standards.

Clash this year was a whopper. 80 players attending and, naturally, some absolutely stunning armies in attendance. I had a fantastic time yet again and really enjoyed the entire weekend.

Now, you could just go through the top rankings players but that’s a bit obvious and a bit boring. I want to discuss … Continue reading My bets for Clash of Kings Champ 2018

Mantic have over 70 people booked on last time I checked, making this the biggest UK event of the year – more than doubling the next biggest events. Among that number there will be veterans and regulars … Continue reading Experiencing your first CoK
I don't know if I've mentioned this recently, but I'm quite a big fan of Orks. I know that will come as a shock to some people. I love the story of Da Green Krusade and sadly this seems to be something that's getting lost to the mists of time. People who weren't around for … Continue reading Da Green Krusade – Orksome History
I don't think that the formula used in the UK Rankings Site works as well as it could. Having spoken to a few others, I think this view is shared quite widely, so I'd like to propose that we tweak how the formula works. The Major Issue The biggest issue with the rankings as a whole … Continue reading Proposing a change to the rankings formula
Photo is completely unrelated to the article. I just thought it'd be nice to start with something pretty. Wargaming seems to have been the ugly duckling, in many aspects, of the various intertwined nerd hobbies.
