It’s been a while since I had a forum to support my ruleset, but I found proboards which seemed an easy route to building one. So here it is.
If you’re interested in Open Combat (available in paperback on Amazon or hardback on my website - links in thread) please join in. 🙂

After many years without one (sadly all the previous cool discussions are lost) I’ve started a new forum. If you’re an Open Combat player (or just fancy finding out more) please join (and share). 🙂 second-thunder.proboards.com

It’s been a long time posting here. But Open Combat is now available in soft back on Amazon using the print on demand service so you should be able to get a copy ‘locally’ (depending on printing house location) whatever country you’re in!
So grab it now!

In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war… and disagreement about the best colour to paint your base rims! Which side are you on? ow.ly/OGIq50VnwQr

@SvenFu Thanks Sven, chariot was finished in a rush for an event but it does the job. 🙂

Been a while since I completed any painting but here’s a couple for my Slaves to Darkness AoS and Spearhead forces.

@gridmaster60 Thanks Michael! Brush control always takes a wobble when I have an extended period off painting. But feels good to get a bit of momentum going again. 🙂

The chariot was a rush job at the end as I had a Spearhead event. I’d been so busy so hadn’t got it done in time, I was sticking parts together on the morning before the event in the evening (the horses and warrior on the back weren’t even started) 😂

Old English is the coolest language you’ve never heard of
From Beowulf to Lord of the Rings, its influence is legendary — but most people know nothing about it.
Here’s a primer on Old English, and an explanation of why we wrote "ye olde" instead of "the old"...

@MoreGamesPls @TimClarePoet Thanks for sharing Ross. Agree with you Tim, well said.

@Yugblad I remember my wife and I sitting in the cinema and both turning to look at each other with a ‘what the…?’ when it all changed. I felt the same way as you leaving the cinema, everything about it felt different.

Old hat to say this, but going to see this at the cinema pre-internet, knowing almost nothing about it places this in my top-5 transformational film experiences.
Not just the plot, the look of it, the vibe - I exited the cinema with the crowd into that cold dark night, changed.

I've just finished off this Chaos Sorcerer. Possibly my favourite part of the model is the little skull and bone spider on the horses neck.

@TooFatLardies The design looks beautiful, great piece of work. Raising a professional respect glass to your graphic designer 😊

Some great news from the website management. With a little luck and as sprinkle of pixie dust, we will have Midgard available for advanced order tomorrow.
Without the pixie dust, it'll be Wednesday. Either way, I thought you'd like to see a bit of what the book looks like.

Bit of a ‘getting back on the horse’ mini thread about my games publishing biz…

👀 looks at last time I posted on Twitter. (I thought I’d been a while off the radar recovering from various health events and surgeries but blimey!)
