A squadron of vintage Void Fighters hunting for War Rocket Ajax. (Actually, these are cool metal plane tokens from the Parker Brothers "Conflict" game, circa 1960.)

Pleased as “punch” that the corner wine & spirits is carrying JUGZ alcoholic fruit drink. It’s the beverage of choice for discerning wargamers. Or so I’ve been told. (Missing the second “G” in the name, but hey.)

Glueing magnets underneath some second-hand Beaky Smurfs today, and discovered one marine was packing hidden treasure. Looted from a pre-imperial shrine, no doubt.

I still have a box of vintage metal Grenadier ships that's remained unpainted since -- cough -- 1978. Will this finally be their year?

Our nefarious plan -- involving

@sebgames.bsky.social
-- to trim the backlog and get some very deserving classic minis on the table. Sacrifices were made, but for the greater good.

Well, it took more than a year to restore, and it’s definitely not as fancy as it used to be — the flood destroyed most of the wall art — but the command center is finally operational once again. Woot, woot! We’ll call that a win.

Two hobby tips for today: 1. Enlist Jess to help with your painting backlog. She's awesome. 2. Check out the classic metal Void figures from
@sebgames.bsky.social
for your miniatures agnostic sci-fi skirmish games. They're also quite awesome. Thank you. That is all.

Remember that time Fantasy Flight Games went all-in on a rank and flank fantasy miniatures game? Oof. It’s a special type of agony to swing for the fences and then whiff. Still, go big or go home, and all that.

As part of our cleanup project, we gave 1983’s Battle at Sarlacc’s Pit to the neighbor kids up the street. The boys’ parents report it’s being used to reenact furious battles on Jabba’s barge “complete with sound effects,” as baddies are tossed screaming into the gaping maw. Makes me quite happy…

Few tasks in my life have been as arduous as (partially) thinning down the hobby collection and then reorganizing the storage room (somewhat). Holy crap! On the plus side, the exercise equipment has been liberated. But heaven help me if I ever need something from the rear right corner of this room.

It's worth mentioning that for the price of a single GW Space Marine Captain in Gravis Armour you can get 36 Late Roman Armoured Infantry models from Victrix. I'm going to use these in the new Pillage wargame, historical inaccuracies be damned. If I want Vikings fighting my Arthurians, so be it.

Pre-owned metal chaos warriors. I'm pretty sure these are Ral Partha sculpts. It's crazy to me how much cheaper non-GW figures are on the second-hand market. I suppose I couldn't use them at the Warhammer store, but other than that, they work just as good.

Dear friends, I have six weeks to paint some werewolves. Would you kindly show me some cool werewolves? Bonus points for painting tips and color suggestions. I thank you, and these metal lycanthropes thank you. Woof.

Hey
@caseyg.bsky.social
, we played Zombie Weirdos at the FLGs last night. One of the nearby MTG players asked, “Is that Warhammer?” No my friend, it is not. May we evangelize about the merits of $5 wargames? (He listened politely for a minute, then fled.)

Food Fight, the game of food-based cafeteria combat by Bryce Knorr, featured in Dragon magazine #44 back in December of 1980. Magazine cover art by the great Phil Foglio. Despite the constant looming specter of nuclear annihilation, that was a fun time to be a kid.

An ad for TSR’s Dungeon! fantasy adventure board game, featured in the Feb. 1981 issue of Dragon magazine. I played the earlier white box version back in the day, and we have a copy of the current version around here somewhere. Fun game, though I'm unsure if it changed home entertainment really.

Yay. We found a shrink-wrapped copy of 7TV Apocalypse in the vault, if anyone's interested. This box set is pretty hard to come by these days, though you can still get the PDF from Crooked Dice. Oh yeah, and cheers to the iconic traffic warden from Threads.
