Lizzid Peeple Hilux
The fallen stars teem with saurian peoples, and wherever humanity has encountered the variegated reptilian species, there has been war. The cold-blooded Reticulans who once preyed on ancient Terrans were the first to be hunted to extinction, but not the last. But fore every stinking, sweltering broodworld scoured, the Serpent arises on two more, forever…

R.O.A.C.H. Patrol!
The far-ranging Arqualan mechanized cavalry now have the mobility they need to patrol the vast, arid polar highlands of Xiandao thanks to the Recon/Offense Adaptable Configuration Harrier.

Except for certain historical miniatures, I have avoided painting ‘box standard’ color schemes for years. I suppose there’s nothing actually wrong with following the…

Fire and Maneuver in Oldhammer
In response to my post on fire and maneuver in Bolt Action, friend, author, and toy soldier enthusiast J.P. Medved alerted me to a page from the Codex: Imperial Guard back in Warhammer 40k 2nd edition that allows Guard squads to split up just as I described. Back in those days, the boxed IG squads…

The LIC Autonomous Drone Initiative. 3d printable miniatures
Today I bring you a new kickstarter. The LIC Autonomous Drone Initiative. 3d printable miniatures As always I try to be transparent, I did receive The Piranha for free, on the caveat that I paint it up for the kickstarter.
