Bunkers - Nostalgic Terrain for Warhammer 40k in the 90s | 2nd Edition YouTube video by Miniscape

So it turns out Matthew at #Miniscape also released a video which included a couple of my bunkers yesterday.

Massive thanks to Matthew.

I'm finding this all a bit bonkers ❀️

Space Marine Terminators in 40k:
"IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR!"
*Strong deployment*
*Attacks bounce off armour*
*Doused in 'stealer blood*

Space Marine Terminators in Space Hulk:
"Did you just hear something Brother?"
*All hell breaks loose*
*Storm Bolter jams*
*Armour opened like a tin can*

The reviews used to justify this excluded nearly 97% of all studies from inclusion in their analysis. This is an absolutely obscene hatchet job by the NHS specifically created to eliminate access to hormones for trans youth.

Another request for assistance in #Lexicanum research: Does somebody have the FRENCH πŸ‡«πŸ‡· version of the 2nd edition Codex #Ultramarines? There is an unproven claim it contains the name of a Space Marine chapter that other versions don't have.

Wagner Group PMCs - Snow drifted across the wrecked highway as the first engines growled awake. Through the fog, a column emerged, moving with the slow, deliberate certainty of men who’d crossed too many frontiers. In Ukraine’, the name whispered ahead of them wasn’t a banner but a warning: Wagner.

A cool toy set from my childhood. The Matchbox Adventure 2001 Raider Command and 2000 Tank Raider.

While not connected, the Raiders were used as models for the vehicles in the Cursed Earth Crusade in Judge Dredd in the very early 80s.

And now this set is all mine πŸ‘

WATCH…
This is space. It's sometimes called the final frontier.
(Except that of course you can't have a final frontier, because there'd be nothing for it to be a frontier to, but as frontiers go, it's pretty penultimate..

Reading Moving Pictures now, and right from the start, Pratchett has sass for Star Trek

The @warlordgames.com Cerberus squad are, bar none, one of the most useful units in the British Commonwealth army for Konflikt '47. Fearless, +1 Penetration in combat, Tough Fighters, and Alert - no enemy infiltrators set up within 18" of your force. Not just the dogs, the WHOLE FORCE. That's nuts!

I had an absolute blast at the 2nd Heads event organised by Ed from Minisodes at the weekend. A couple of games of 2nd edition (including a huge 3000pt a side one where we managed to get all my Chaos horde out), a game of Space Crusade, and a great time with like minded folk!

finally finished with a company comm I've been working on the last few months, got really sick during the middle of it so it took a bit longer than I'd have liked it to but everything has come out well ^3^

One of the first #WordBearers I painted was Zardu Layak. I liked his colours so much I have used them on all my Iconoclast units. My army is currently equal parts red and gray.
