Finished the weekend with a good solid thrashing from some vampires, which reassured me about the efficacy of a Crimson Keep army in the new year.

Ended the weekend placed 19/26, and bereft of any trophies, but a good time was had by all. I may well return to Milton Keynes...

#AoS
Start of Turn 1 Start of Turn 3, well past the point my army had mostly vanished. A 55-78 loss to Jonny.

First Day 2 have in Milton Keynes saw an Ogre-off and an Andy-off; Andy failed his Turn 1 charges, Andy didn't, Andy defeated Andy.

It'd now be much funnier for me if I didn't post any pictures for context 🤣

#AoS
Start of Turn 1 Start of Turn 3, where most of the other Ogre army is missing. A 75-17 win against Andy Owen.

I've accepted I'm not going to win Coolest Army this weekend, because it's an incredibly competitive field. #AoS

Tagging @ajghostarm.bsky.social @g005e.bsky.social
James Carlin and his 90s Nostalgia Sons of Behemat. Goose's hoarde of Tyranids that are definitely not a Slaves To Darkness army. Alex Jones's exquisite Egyptian Stormcast army that I would bet is going to win. Mark Poole's Kharadron Overlords army, replete with sails on the boats!

Game 3 went decidedly better - had a knockdown punch up with the Hellsmiths, and a very generous out of sequence Feed swung it in my favour. So we end the day with a 1-2! #AoS
Start of Turn 1 Start of Turn 2 Start of Turn 3 A 64-31 win against David the Banbury Bull

Day 1 in Milton Keynes isn't going terribly well, so please keep those 200 likes from a bot army in the bank for now.

Game 1 was an exercise in making silly mistakes, while Game 2 was an exercise in whiffing all the Go Turn rolls.

Also the signal here is atrocious.

#AoS
Game 1, Turn 1 Game 1, 25-74 loss Game 2, Turn 1 Game 2, 51-60 loss

It's that time of the year, where I stop talking about Ogres every few days and start talking about sour beers every day!

Only the one calendar this year; we don't have 2020 play money anymore, and that Sonic calendar annoyed me too much.

#AdventCalendar #IndieBeer #beer
The IndieBeer "It's A Tart Life" sour beer advent calendar. Basically a cardboard box with 24 wrapped up beers, featuring both bottles and cans. This year, I'll be making much better use of ALT text; I'll have more characters to describe the beer if I don't name the beer and brewery in the actual post, so we'll be very much visual-impaired first!

Now that my inexplicable viral moment seems to be petering off, we seem to have landed at nine times more likes than my previous top post, and still no idea what actually happened.

This must be the sort of thing that gives social media managers panic attacks.

Ok, respectable work voting up the Round 2 win - please keep liking that instead of this Round 3 thrashing by some Gitz #AoS
Top of Turn 1 Top of Turn 3 27-68 loss to me

27 of your fuckers were thrilled I shitted up my first have, can I get that much love for squeaking a win at the end of the round time? #AoS
Start of Turn 1 End of Round 3, where we had to call it. 34-33 win to me.

I need to have some smaller gaps between tournaments, because I'm rusty. I also need to not play a Sylvaneth army with 7 units of Spiteriders... #AoS
Top of Turn 1 Top of Turn 3 Top of Turn 4 Kragnos did 24 mortal wounds charging Belthanos

Another really bad leak? I can work with this...
#AoS
I'm sorry, visually-impaired friends, I'm not sure how much you'll get out of this entirely visual gag. Don't worry, you're not missing much... nor were you missing much from the "leaked picture of a new Ogre model".

While I'm in a signal-boosting mood, these guys have been advertising their double-headed AoS and TOW tournament on Reddit and Facebook, so I'm hoisting it here where tournament types might actually see it.

@troggmeta.bsky.social YOU THOUGHT I WAS DONE WITH YOU FOR THE DAY?
Dumfries Gamers presents Twin Realms; a Warhammer Age of Sigmar and The Old World tournament, taking place in Dumfries on Saturday December 13th. For more info, search for "Dumfries Gamers" on Facebook, find the one post about Twin Realms, and then good luck working out what to do from there.

Erm... getting into the venue to see Bob Vylan was a bit less fraught the last time we saw them.

Always fun to be audibly on the right side of history!

It's been a while since we played #GuessThatManeater! I'm flirting with a Roving Maw build, so need a few more Gorgers. Can you guess what these three scrawny fellows are going to be cosplaying as? #AoS
Three mostly-assembled Gorgers for the Maneater Legion.

It's that time of year! Everyone's FLGS is declaring their 2026 tournament schedule! Today it's @tabletoprepublic.bsky.social's turn!

I've never been a fan of the double-header of the glorification of war and the unthinking mandated conformity that both come of wearing a poppy. So instead I'm wearing the white poppy, in the hope of a world that doesn't have to solve its problems by murdering itself.
A white poppy of peace on my shirt.

Officially confirmed; the Great Treasure Chest that #TheManeaterLegion uses as a Mawpot is being revealed at the World Championship this weekend!

Last day of Painttober, and after leaving it for a fortnight, I remembered there's only highlighting to do, and I hate highlighting, so... near enough! One steampunk Hearthkyn in a desert!

Day 16 of the Age Of Painttober, and every part of the model has a layer of paint and at least some shading (base aside).

Now it's just a matter of adding highlights, so it's it's fit for a contest, not my usual flat drab!

So I don't want to start a Hellsmiths army.

But I always want to make more Maneaters.

And they're apparently making it easy for me...

#AoS #TheManeaterLegion
An Ogre Irongut and an Anointed Sentinel next to each other, as shown on MiniCompare.info. Turns out they're about the same size in terms of torso, head, and arms!
