100%. Doesn't this guy look happier out of his clam shell?

Its also managed to simulate that thing where you go for a run and end up desperately needing a poo.

There are lots of insane buy it now auctions on ebay that you'd never buy...and then there's pretty expensive ones where you're like "I still would if I was rich though"

Each box/ tray is its own little project. This is without looking at the sprues in a big coffin box that could become part of a turnip army at any moment.

I dont have the most impressive lead pile, but do you ever think about how long, working at your current rate, it would take you to finish all of your currently tabled projects?

I'm interested in selling that legions imperialis box though. Its untouched, its been two years, its not going to happen.

Wider man.

Almost all other folk horror films ask "what if Magaret Murray was right?" The Wicker Man asks "what if reading too much Margaret Murray can drive you crazy?"

What I love about this is that it hits at something true about the Wicker Man: Its not a horror film about folk belief, its a film about people who got too into reading about folklore. They get the idea for the wider man from a 19th Century book and probably did have to have the wicker shipped in.

I’ll never forget watching The Wicker Man with my outer Hebridean mum. “I just don’t know where there got all that wicker from”

100% I was also just commenting earlier that I want to run a west country oldhammer event.

In which James proposes at the end that he might run an oldhammer event in Cambridge and I realise we could be in a "let a thousand oldhammer fan events bloom" era.

Furthermore, the game you set out to run is not the one you end up running. I aimed to run a game about a vicious power struggle to climb to the top of a London fractured by sectarian war and it ended up with a Tzimisce becoming a sea monster that hunted the coast off South End On Sea.

There goes someone who did as much as anyone to create 40K as a narrative prospect. Bad on women in the setting, bad on fat people, but nevertheless he understood how to describe the psychotic setting like no one else at the time and proved what was possible when others said it couldn't be done.

Yes...So maybe a winter one (although sprucon isnt exactly an oldhammer overlap)

Thats a good call, Firestorm have always been great. There is Bristol Independent Gaming...I also wonder about exploring not shops- Lead and Steel is just in a space i think. Obviously lots of logistical challenges there

With Lead and Steel in the North in the Spring, Bring Out Your Lead in the Midlands in the Summer, i feel like there's a gap for an Oldhammer event in the West Country (probably Bristol?) in the Autumn/ Winter. Would this interest anyone?

I suspect this is going to be sort of brilliant but also make Dark Future or Man O War look like snakes and ladders.

I'll be interested if it will imply anything about the imagined setting- was it meant to be eldar vs imperial as Space Fleet and ergo Ian Watson's Harlequin imagined.

Makes you wonder how much 2002's World of Darkness Mafia was influenced by the supernatural elements of the Sopranos.

Calling close male relatives of the king "clito".

Oi, Clito!

My latest video charts a course for the classic game of raging sea battles in the Warhammer world:

There was a time when the difference between them was that the 2.50 ones had 4 models in in them and the 2.99 ones had 5.

I'm just saying that the Jamie profile of "very good at sports and finds his blonde sister hot" Has to apply to huge swathes of young Republican men in the US.

Otzi the Iceman frozen in a position with his arms flung to one side like he is about to execute a sick spin.

All the photos of Otzi the Iceman make him look like he's about to do his bit of dancing for the boys team in the Run DMC/ Jason Nivens "Its Like That" music video.

The only difference is that people who are really into ketamine are way nicer than people how are really into AI.

Fundamentally I have a need for a format that services my need to write "ive been thinking a lot about...." and then you do an 8 post thread about how early 90s space marines were gay but not in the way you think, and instagram doesn't allow for that properly.

The passive voice to describe his own actions!

"If you are a young person captured in my child catcher van disguised as a sweet shop, or a parent watching your child be captured in that van, I understand why the actions of me (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's the Child Catcher) may feel frightening"

I know its far from the most egregious or clever example of this, but ive just found myself thinking about Game of Thrones, where the prologue goes "BTW, an ice zombie apocalypse is coming" and then doesn't mention it again but it puts the next 400 pages of political wrangling in perspective.

This has been a really good series- introducing old world of darkness settings through radio plays.
