They should have remade Highlander 2 instead. Very low bar on improving that one. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Looking at this picture, I can HEAR the noise the librarian’s stamp makes.

Finally done. An entire early war IJA platoon, with supports. #ChainofCommand #BoltAction #SpreadtheLard #Wargaming @pchieza.bsky.social

@wyrdscience.bsky.social bought Ad Astra Per Croydon by @colossive.com based on your review. I'm now imagining playing it as a mashup of Orbital Blues & The Goon Show:

Got my copy of @wyrdscience.bsky.social 8. The fanzine article, with different typefaces & styles on each page, and Tippexed typos, is layout as art. Well done!

Matilda II from @warlordgames.com completed for #ChainofCommand & #BoltAction Like its MkI sibling behind it, it's slow, but able to laugh at most enemy AT guns. #SpreadtheLard #Wargaming

First purchase from Salute @slondonwarlords.bsky.social finished: motorcycle combo from Wargames Foundry for #ChainofCommand and #BoltAction #SpreadtheLard

@iain2411.bsky.social think this is what we were both waiting for?

Don’t even point!

I remember this prog (issue), but I don’t think I picked up on the planet’s name at the time.

@mottokrosh.bsky.social thanks for getting Knightcore out on schedule as promised, looking forward to receiving my copy.

Based on a true story. About a dozen true stories in our experience...

I'm sure all the doctors of history I follow on here would testify to the accuracy of this statement.

without stating your age, post your favourite film released the year you turned 18.

@wyrdscience.bsky.social just ordered latest issue, sorry for the delay!

MARTY: Why don’t you just make ten louder and make ten be the top... number... and make that a little louder? (pause) NIGEL: These go to eleven.

Damn. Best 40K author ever.

Why do I suddenly crave Tunnock’s teacakes?

But why not just have it go to ten, and make ten louder?

Wanted to visit Crossbones graveyard in Southwark on my trip to London, but turns out it’s only accessible a few hours each afternoon. Got a photo of the votive wall outside though.

In ancient times Hundreds of years Before the dawn of history There lived a strange race of people - the druids

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

@eurosky.social hi, trying to migrate my account to you, but no invite code arriving by email. Tried twice now.

Watching Sisu 2 and thinking “There must be stats for these armoured motorcyclists in #BoltAction” #wargaming

Chain of Command Gembloux Gap PSC Turn 8, counterattack at Noirmont. A French loss this time, failed to hold the road junction objective. The R35 tank, although heavily armoured, was unable to withstand a flank shot from a PzIII. #SpreadtheLard #wargames #wargaming

Assassin nuns and questions of deep theological import. A good read so far. www.goodreads.com/book/show/24...

As someone who has lived in the Toon, can confirm.

Turn 7 of Gembloux Gap PSC for Chain of Command. French counterattack, seized the objective, but faced 3 panzers! Expected to be overrun, but rolled a turn end at the last minute to score a bloodless victory! Three missions left to play. #SpreadtheLard #wargames #wargaming

Saga Age of Chivalry last night, Resupply mission, my Swiss vs French. Lost, but went down fighting. Dice luck moderate to poo. My Gewalthut pike block withstood multiple assaults. Here they repel a charge by the flower of French nobility. #wargaming #sagawargame

Rather enjoying One Piece on Flix, lots of weirdness they don’t bother to explain: snail telephones, pelican postmen, & the marines’ uniforms are about as militaristic as a mashup of the cub scouts & a fast food chain.

Is it ears? It's ears, isn't it?

@newedgeswordmag.bsky.social have you considered a print on demand service for customers outside the US? I can get copies of @oldmoonquarterly.bsky.social from the evil rainforest wizards, printed to order in Poland. I have an e-reader, but much prefer the printed page.

Apparently it was #NationalProofreadingDay yesterday, or #TagdesKorrekturlesens as a local editor put it. Online search says 'Judy Beaver created National Proofreading Day in honour of her mother, Flo, who loved to correct other people's mistakes'. Funny, but a good editor needs tact. #editing

More Gembloux Gap PSC for Chain of Command tonight. A slow German deployment and poor artillery spotting allowed the French to form a solid line defending their heavy guns. The arrival of French armour was enough to precipitate a hasty withdrawal by the attackers. #spreadthelard #wargaming #wargames

Britain. 1813. Across the island, the folk ballads of the common people are coming to life. The dead walk, dragons rise, lovers betray one another, authorities condemn innocents to die — whatever happens in the song happens in real life. My latest TTRPG is coming soon to Kickstarter! #ttrpg

RPGs have got to stop writing flavor text like, “You’re the apex of this discipline, all bow before you in awe,” and then the ability associated with it is, “You can do a thing you could do at level 1 an extra time before you need to take a nap.”

I’m rewatching Blue Eye Samurai, and it’s just as good second time around. That & Cyberpunk Edgerunners are the only recent shows I’ve had wanted to watch twice.

French Panhard armoured car (Warlord Games) and Hotchkiss 25mm AT gun (Crusader Minis) for my Chain of Command games. The AT gun took out an armoured car last game, hence the kill ring on the barrel. #SpreadtheLard #wargaming #wargames

Any druids need spell components? This tree near us will have a bumper crop of mistletoe later this year. #OSR #TTRPG

Chain of Command Gembloux Gap PSC continues: Blitz on Villeroux. Here, French infantry deploy to cover the main road, using a German armoured car for cover. It got overconfident and exposed its rear to a 25mm AT gun that was happy to take the opportunity presented #spreadthelard #wargaming #wargames

I need to finish my Roman Limes watch tower that's been vandalised by the locals. #wargaming #sagawargame

Cooked a full Sunday lunch for friends and family today. I’m particularly proud of my giant Yorkshire pudding. #reetgrand

(Nelson Muntz voice): "Ha ha!" www.bbc.com/news/live/c0...

Jump-off points for Chain of Command, from the Lardies. But too big to serve as JoPs IMO, and only two per side. Better used as objective markers or general decoration. #SpreadtheLard #Wargaming

More Gembloux Gap PSC Chain of Command tonight: the Culverts at Noirmont. French defenders kept the attacking Germans back long enough for the Royal Engineers to blow the culverts. #SpreadtheLard #wargaming

Rodney. Headington Quarry morris tune played badly on the #AngloConcertina, best take I could manage with least number of fluffs. This one's harder than it looks. #Folkmusic #murderatuneaday.
