Sometimes work and fun do collide. In Edinburgh for a conference, and not only do I get to be in my favourite UK city, I get to hang with @orbitaeartus.bsky.social and catch up. 11/10 evening. Stoked

Hey everyone, I was off on another international trip. This time I answered the call of the Danish national team captain and hopped on a plane to Manchester to play in a team tournament. @team-england-aos.bsky.social @aos-denmark.bsky.social @sugarfreekid.bsky.social youtu.be/EInBgy8NHVo?...

It’s been a great year for the team, and very difficult to select the final 8. Wishing them all the best in Italy. I can’t be there this year, but I’ll sure be supporting them from home!

For anyone who’s into event stats or attended the event this weekend, the run down on Manchester Teams at Justice Series are here for you to look at!! justplay.events/manchester20...

This weekend I had the privilege to TO 10 lovely teams from all over the UK and some lovely friends from Germany and Denmark at Justice Series Teams. Great games, some incredible hobby on display and 11/10 vibes! Tickets for our other events this year are here; justplay.events/justiceserie...

Starting a thread of Age of Sigmar Players and Tournament organisers and trying to build a community vibe here on bluesky. Tag yourself if you want people to follow your AOS journey

Hitting my Hobby Dad Arc HARD… Tester model for Lumpin Croop’s Distinguished Diners. Decided to use the original Dogs of War regiment (really showing my age now) as my inspiration. What you guys think? #bloodbowl #warhammer

Brotherhood 2026!! What a great year. One of the best events out there. Natty, Becky, Chris, Evan and Ross were all amazing opponents and playing the Helsmiths was a lot of fun. LIT coming 6th with our pairings “process” was frankly amoral though. 11/10 vibes. Can’t wait for next year.

Just had my latest order of custom gaming aids completed by @propaintedstudios.bsky.social! Safe to say these might be my favourite ones yet! Matt & Jen are fantastic work with and would highly recommend them to everyone for all your gaming aid needs! If you want a cheeky discount use BIGPHIL10!

This weekends hobby goal!! Want to get these finished for brotherhood and so I can move on to other projects… Narrator: “Marc always told funny lies like this, we all knew he’d be in his pants playing ARC Raiders all weekend. But it was nice to see him try”.

It’s a very special practice event this weekend, with ourselves @ao-wales.bsky.social @aos- and scotland.bsky.social all joining up, and playing a mixed nations teams event. A great opportunity for us all to get together, improve our game and have a great time!!

It’s Linked Ley Lines for round 3 at @kirtongames.bsky.social Devon Destruction! Been a great day so far, and looking forward to a beer tonight with friends!

Round 2 is Bountiful Equinox here at @kirtongames.bsky.social Devon Destruction!

It’s that time of year! I’m TO for the wonderful @kirtongames.bsky.social guys and Devon Destruction! Lifecycle Round 1, and the round is underway!!

What a wonderful weekend. It was a privilege to step in and support @aossweden.bsky.social at 6N. Nils and the team were fantastic, and it was the most fun I’ve had playing in a long time! All my opponents were fantastic, and congratulations to @team-england-aos.bsky.social on the win!

So @thingster.bsky.social and I are stepping in for @aossweden.bsky.social this weekend at AoS 6N. We were obviously picked because we’re tall, handsome and have great beards 👀

This weekend was The Justice Series teams event in Coventry, with players attending across a bunch of teams. This meant @zhorph.bsky.social had to defend the belt! He did a fine job, but @studioerstwood.bsky.social was able to wrestle it from him! (see what we did there?) We have a new champ!

Had a small amount of hobby time yesterday, so I finished these! Another brilliant kit! GW need to release the rest of the range asap. I can’t wait any longer 😂

Finished the first of the Infernal Cohort units I have. The models hit all the right things for me. They look great, they have lots of character but also aren’t to complex that it takes too long to finish a unit. Next up is the Bombard and the Rocket Battery!

I absolutely succumbed to the FOMO, and got me some Helsmiths!! These models are 11/10 and I’ve had so much fun painting them!

In non-hobby related news… Baby Chaos Spawn discovered! Deployment is April 2026. The next piece in the Colwill-Garcia family ❤️

And this is what we’re all playing for, the Team England Masters belt!

Today is the Team England Masters!! We’re into the end of Round 3 which will complete the pools, and then it’s onto the Semi finals!!

Cities of Sigmar v Idoneth Deepkin and Kharadron Overlords v Daughters of Khaine make up our Team England Masters Semi-Finals. The mission is Bountiful Equinox. Which army do you want to see in the final?!

It’s final time! After an 8am start and 4 games of Warhammer, we start the final of the Masters at 11pm. It’s Seb with KO v Alex’s Cities. For the belt…. Game on!!

Up early for Day 1 of our 6 Nations Practice weekend! Games will be going late into the night, but it’s also a great opportunity for the team to get together and hang out!

Got some visitors this weekend. Warhammer, Food and Drinks are the name of the game. Tour of the Plymouth Gin Distillery tomorrow. I’m sure that’ll be just fine.

Thanks to all the support of our wonderful players, the Welsh Open raised £1,400 for charity this weekend, with funds going to Children's Cancer and Leukemia. We are so grateful to everyone for contributing their hard-earned funds for such a worthy cause!

That's a wrap on the Welsh Open! Congratulations and thanks to all the players - you are truly what makes these events special. It was so good to see so many happy people in one place, and makes all of the hard work worthwhile. Awards and winners will be posted up tomorrow.

First on the roster, the Welsh Spoon award (with an engraved hand-carved Welsh love spoon as the prize) went to Liam Winch! 🥄

A favourite for those that have attended Blackout previously, and an award that resonates with us well in Wales, the Caledor Memorial Award (for best dragon) went to Tom Matthews with his gorgeous blood-soaked Vhordrai!

Cleanest Gamer(s) tied at 4/5 votes each for Glen Chalk and Dominik de Cassan! A fantastic achievement for both getting that many votes. Glen took home the custom WarVault, provided Pro Painted Studios. We'll be passing a trophy to Dominik as he was the highest placed player.

The player-voted "Well Tidy" Award (overall best army across all measures) went to Tony Kirby with his SEAHAUNT! 👻 You can tell that Tony has put so much time into these conversions and the display board - was a joy to see it on the table.

Crimson Brush (TO-judged technical painting) 3rd place was Neill Caughey with his very imaginative goblin-themed Slaves to Darkness army!

Crimson Brush (TO-judged technical painting) runner-up was Mo Ashraf with his stunning Seraphon!

Crimson Brush (TO-judged technical painting) Champion was Jon Cann (paint), with his strikingly beautiful Ogroid-themed Slaves to Darkness army!

On to gaming, Pendragon's Champion (best order outside of podium) went to Josh Cann on Cities of Sigmar!

Daemon Prince of Wales (best chaos outside of the podium) went to Krzysztof Zylawy running Blades of Khorne!

Mortarch of Wales (best death outside of the podium) went to Matthew Gouldesbrough with Ossiarch Bonereapers!

Aaron's favourite award, Da Valleyz Boss (best destruction outside of the podium), went to Mike Chadderton on Kruelboyz!

In third place, with Cities of Sigmar, was Peter Twigg!

In second place, with Cities of Sigmar, was Alex Bruce!

Flying in all the way from Germany to take out the event, all while being a great human being and winning Cleanest Gamer, was Dominik de Cassan with Disciples of Tzeentch!

You know what this means… It’s event weekend baby!! This weekend it’s @aoswelshopen.bsky.social and I can’t wait to see everyone and get started!! See you in the morning!

Afternoon Everyone! Unfortunately, some devasting news has come in for one of our community. He has done a lot for AOS at Element Games. Have a read of the link and donate if you are able to. gofund.me/c03e03c1

Also… Painted this little creep today. He’s wonderful and I love him.
