This past Sunday I’m thankful for the axolotl. I’ve always thought they were cool little creatures. And in Mexico City right now, they’re everywhere as part of their World Cup decorations and celebrations. I was tempted to buy a pinata of one but resisted. I couldn’t figure out how to get it home. Instead… Read more »
Luchadors Rule!
Last Sunday I was thankful for Mexican Wrestling. Though, unlike the fan I caught in this next photo, I was a bit unsure of who was who. I did eventually sort them out though. It’s made easier by the bad guys loving being bad guys. I came home wanting to rewatch some El Santo… Read more »
RT601
This past Sunday I’m thankful for Adventurers. Specifically creators who’ve set about painting each and every figure from the Rogue Trader miniature series RT601. Thus: I recently discovered there is a subculture of incredibly talented painters who — over the last decade or so — set themselves the goal of painting all of the… Read more »
Alien Legion
This Sunday I’m thankful for Alien Legion comics. I mean, look at these magnificent bastards!: I collected it as it was coming out in the 1980s and -90s. It was such a fun read! About a decade ago I tracked down a few of the compilations and graphic novels. I still pull them out… Read more »
Vargr!
This past Sunday I’m thankful for Vargr in combat armour. Some time ago I backed this Kickstarter in hopes of finally getting my hands on some Zhodani commandoes. That didn’t pan out as well as I’d hoped it would. What did happen though was an unexpected bonus. Over the course of the project they… Read more »
Genetically Engineered Uplifted Cigar-Smoking Mountain Gorillas. In SPACE!
This Sunday I’m thankful for half-price AT-43 Karmans. Yeeaars ago I bought these two figs from my local shop: I wasn’t looking for a new game to get into, I just thought they were cool models. Fast forward to early last year and my discovery of Xenos Rampant. What a game! While coming up… Read more »
Asking for Pirate Dinosaurs! With a Side of Egyptians.
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Now that Reaper is finally wrapping up Bones 6 I’m looking forward to them launching Bones 7 sometime — hopefully early — this year. As I mentioned — Holy Hannah! Six years ago? — Bones 4 gave us both Sci-Fi Dinos and Savage Dinos. Bones 5 gave us Fantasy Dinos… Read more »

Contact!
This Sunday I’m thankful for Flint & Feather, by Crucible Crush. Specifically their about-to-end-in-a-few-days Kickstarter for … Now I can game all my ancestors!
The Gray Champion of the ’20s
I recently decided to look into the concept of The Fourth Turning: Turns out I’m not the only one thinking the ’20s are going to get even more interesting. And, since there’s already been some discussion, what if he is The Gray Champion?: Whether you decide to go with Spectre’s striding, or Dragon Bait’s shooting… Read more »
