En Taro Adun, Reader!

The Starcraft Tabletop Miniatures Game is available for preorder through April 15th (though they’ll still be in the online store following that time, albeit with some of the bundle options leaving circulation, so if you’re interested, check it out)! Last time we looked at the Zerg, and today we’re finishing our first look with their ancient foes: the Protoss, the firstborn of the gods, and a powerful psionic race.

We here at No Dice No Glory had the privilege of looking through an advance copy of the upcoming Armies of Italy book.  The new Army Special Rules are a welcome addition and add unique flavor to Italian armies in Bolt Action.  Veteran Italian players will be relieved to see familiar entries but with new twists that will provide an opportunity to reevaluate their army builds.  Aaron will cover some exciting new units in another article so I will focus my attention on the new Special Army Rules and the book as a whole.

Just back from Adepticon and yes I got into a new game! ESR Napoleonics, while I have known Dave for a while I never sat in one of his demos. However I got the book and got into the game. Dave and I talk about the design and how this game is a different take on playing Napoleonics.

Hey Reader!

The Starcraft Tabletop Miniatures Game is now available for preorder! Last time we looked at the Terran Army, and today we’re shifting to the Zerg: the quintessential “Bug Race” commonly found in the sci-fi descendants of Robert Heinlein. And wow did Archon Studios go all-out on these!

Hey Reader!

The Starcraft Tabletop Miniatures Game is now available for preorder! After almost 10 months of waiting, reading up on how the game would be played, and joining in the beta tester program, I’m excited that miniatures are soon coming to stores near you – and can be ordered to your house right now!

Today we’re looking at what’s available to you for the Terran Armed Forces: the forces of humans that first arrived in the Koprulu Sector as a prison colony given a new chance at freedom, but over the centuries has now become several full civilizations carving out a living on new planets among alien races.

My Bolt Action army project of the year is a winter American army project.  While my infantry will advance through the snow on foot, they are in desperate need of armor support.  In order to fully commit to the theme I decided to paint the armor support in winter camouflage.  The general idea was to paint it white with the green undercoat showing through where the white paint rubbed off.

My recent Bolt Action projects have, in-part, been chosen to challenge myself with new basing techniques.  I’ve played around with desert bases for my North African Italian army, stacked rubble with urban bases for my Stalingrad German army, and now plan on making snow angels with winter bases for my Battle of the Bulge US army.  So let’s get into how this project came together on the painting table.

I recently wrote an article about a Bolt Action tournament I attended in February.  One of the commenters made me think about how different Tournament Organizers across the country approach the time management piece of running a tournament.  So I set out to collect some answers.

I reached out to TOs from coast to coast, some I knew from attending their events and others via Facebook or recommendations from others, and started to compile some ideas.  The conversations began with point/order dice limits, how long rounds lasted, scenarios chosen or avoided, and additional measures put in place to help ensure well timed events.   Take a look below on comments made by eight TOs.  At the end you’ll find my key take-aways from this experience.

I have been super excited about Konflikt 47 since I saw it on the discount shelf at my local store six years ago after first edition floundered. Now with the rerelease and the new plastic kits, I get to live the best parts of German tanks and multilegged battlemechs in one! To create my dream K47 army, I took a little bit of liberty to head cannon my own reasons for why I will be playing my favorite models. Notice I didn’t say the best units…a dozen or so games in, and I have only actually won a single game.

I’ve jumped into the Early-War period of Flames of War, and am in the middle of building the British half of the Dunkirk two-player starter set. I recently took a look at what is in the box, and now I’m painting the infantry.

The purpose of this article is to step through my process for painting FOW infantry, in the hope that this may be of use to players who are just getting into FOW and looking to paint their first figures.
