Our first episode of 2026 is delayed one week due to illness - when a host says, "Well, maybe I can set up the mic next to my bedside so I don't have to get up," it's a good reason to call an audible and wait a week. We love the dedication, but we'd rather have everyone healthy and together!

It is also EXTREMELY easy to buy an army because They’re Strong In The Meta or whatever, and then have their rules completely changed by the time you finish painting. Don’t do it.

…you Just Think Are Neat. Choose the one that excites you. Choose the one that makes you wanna draw fanart. Choose the one where you get a goofy grin just from reading the timeline section in old codices. Choose that one, because THAT’S what’s gonna keep all the hours of assembly and painting fun.

This is fine with me, though, because I’ve accepted that Actually Playing Games Of Warhammer is a TINY percentage of my hobbying, and mostly just serves as this sort of guiding star for everything else. Collecting, building, painting, thinking about, writing about, looking at; that’s the bulk of…

GW gave Rob a chance to paint up the new XV26 Stealth Suits from the Dead Silence box. He’s always liked stealth suits, and the new ones are only very slightly up-scaled while being much more varied.
