Honour among thieves is the latest attempt to bring the popular role playing game to the silver screen; but this time it seems that Hasbro have finally managed to pull it off and create a movie which is actually a Dungeons and Dragons film. The early noughties efforts may have had the excellently overacted performanceContinue reading “Honour among thieves. Enough cheese and ham for a sandwich but still pure DnD”

The end of the Imperium
So after 80 editions the Imperium magazine has come to an end. Thought I was clickbaiting for a moment there didn’t you? After 80 magazines worth of paint, sprues and brushes the question is whether or not it was any good. It’s undeniable that the subscription, even at the premium tier which I had, isContinue reading “The end of the Imperium”
GW pre-orders. Here we go again, and again and again
I had not planned to do a GW article this weekend to be honest. I had intended to do an unboxing blog for my new anime figure and none of the pre-orders/new releases this weekend interested me. I like the new Farsight model but not enough to want a box of Tau (I still haveContinue reading “GW pre-orders. Here we go again, and again and again”
Begun the culture wars have (round 300 million-ish)
So recently I have not been online much due to a mix of ill health and real life events. It’s no bad thing to take a break of course but predictably as soon as I went back online I saw that Magic the Gathering was trending. Never a good sign. So, ignoring all wisdom andContinue reading “Begun the culture wars have (round 300 million-ish)”
Do all roads lead to ten?
You have to hand it to GW; they know how to both build a hype train and also shoot themselves in the foot at the same time. We’re a few days out from adepticon 2023 and they simultaneously drop this and then they manage to send a model out which had not even been revealedContinue reading “Do all roads lead to ten?”
High on Life, a glob of meh on my hard drive
High on Life is a game you play if you want less frenzied gameplay than Doom, less zany nonsense than Saints Row 3 and are a fan of the Rick and Morty animated series. For anyone else though this game is a glob of sheer meh all over your console or PC. I am generallyContinue reading “High on Life, a glob of meh on my hard drive”
A bit of an update; I still live!!
So, bar my last post you may have noticed I have not been posting much lately (and if you haven’t noticed then how dare you not!! I jest of course). Being honest my mental health has not been, and continues not to be. the best this last two months. Am not going to go intoContinue reading “A bit of an update; I still live!!”
Anger, bikes and dogs; a week of GW reveals
Well it would appear that GW have been extremely busy behind the scenes of late if the reveal show is anything to go by; and the ‘I hate GW but they make me sweet clickbait money’ crowd have been equally busy. I really don’t understand what goes through their minds but that’s probably a blogContinue reading “Anger, bikes and dogs; a week of GW reveals”
The psychological tricks of game design
So, after a rather successful launch and a massive amount of vitriol; the noise around Diablo immortal has started to die down. Not the hatred of it by any means, but the endless coverage on social media Twitch and YouTube has finally started to subside. Though the recent delay of it’s China release may bringContinue reading “The psychological tricks of game design”
Crypto and NFT. Why?
If you have any interest in gaming then it is impossible to avoid mention of crypto and NFTs these days. Games are being built with built in crypto farming and NFT (though I do use the term game loosely in reference to things like Earth2) whilst big studios like Square Enix are open in admittingContinue reading “Crypto and NFT. Why?”
