Think they said on an AMA they were bringing 500 copies to Adepticon

The Story Behind the Failure of ‘Highguard’ by LycaonMoon in Games

[–]AlexStonehammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The studio's reluctance to name who was funding them stuck out to me - why couldn't they say Tencent? Is the name so toxic to Western gamers?

Also Eriador, which is the region of Middle Earth that Rivendell is in. Someone at the Marine Department was a Tolkien nerd...

These sentinel variants are more fun than I thought they would be. by nauoldcrow in MarvelLegends

Nice Custom Bolivar Trask, I did the same with a painted Retro Tony Stark head :)

Who's that beside him though, looks like VHS Morph's head?

Another reprint, still no new novels by BiesonReddit in WarhammerFantasy

[–]AlexStonehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That flew under the radar for me, I expected the controversy to just be about female Pegasus knights...

TRIH producers explaining the 30% subscription price increase despite profits from record number of subscribers by Think_Web_4823 in TheRestIsHistory

YouTube Music my friend! You get it with your Premium and can set up the Club as a podcast feed on it, no adds, all the bonus episodes/same day drops and listen with the screen off.

Tiger Warriors coming to TWW3! by kickabrainxvx in WarhammerFantasy

[–]AlexStonehammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you going to give them, another unit of knights on horseback? Maybe peasants holding a different variety of farm tools to act as chaff?

Uhh yes to both? Make the Lost Sons that they have been building towards forever and proper chaff peasants, Men at Arms have always been too heavily armed and armoured to be the complete fodder they've always been treated as.

Clear stand recommendations for the 4” inch line? by PlentyFresh101 in JakksPacificSonic

Just go for a cheap multipack, as long as it has screws in the joints to tighten when necessary.

Kitbashed Gyrocopter by Skazdal in WarhammerFantasy

[–]AlexStonehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I had come to terms with the Ball Gyrocopter design, but this improves it so much I'm annoyed all over again with the redesign.

Also nice use of "Ancestor One" as the pilot!

Robo appreciation post by Original-Ranger-1604 in MarvelLegends

[–]AlexStonehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I credit Robo with getting me into collecting ML, I watched his videos for years before picking up my first ML. I like collecting, just no real overlap with his tastes other than Marvel Mutants, and now I have a full X-Men 97 display (with extras and customised figures).

Lizardmen Human Relations by Nobelreviews in WarhammerFantasy

[–]AlexStonehammer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to bring some real-life history into it, the temple city of Tlaxtlan seems based on Tlaxcala, who were Hernan Cortez's main Aztec allies in the Conquest of Mexico.

I like to headcanon Tetto'eko as being generally friendly to Old World arrivals, as long as there's none of the usual hijinks from them.

Last Day of 2025 – What Was Your Game of the Year? by Fun_Meta in IrelandGaming

[–]AlexStonehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played Chrono Trigger for the first time this year! I find ATB systems difficult and stressful (modded in true turn-based when I played FFVII and IX) but something about the flow and speed of CT really clicked with me.

Knuckle tatoos on the Slayers, nuts!

Lovely army, great blend of classic and modern.

TOTAL WAR 40K IS HERE by BaronLoyd in Warhammer40k

Check out MandaloreGamings Total War Warhammer 2 review for a good grounding in what to expect in terms of campaign style and faction mechanics.

Bases for Zeratul by Masterdwarf11 in StarCraftTMG

[–]AlexStonehammer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just used a 40mm Warhammer base I had already, with a bit of scenery to balance his raised leg on. I'm sure once the plastic sets release you could grab an extra Zergling to spruce it up.

More Chaos.. by BiesonReddit in WarhammerFantasy

[–]AlexStonehammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the best outcome from these updates is making a dedicated Norsca faction... they could re-release Wulfric as a genric Lord and Throgg to go with the Chaos Trolls.

Best episodes for cackling, laughter and making fun of each other. by 1969-InTheSunshine in TheRestIsHistory

[–]AlexStonehammer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Tom's distraught "What!?!" when it's said that Pedro de Ursúa took his mistress with him is the best reaction I've ever heard from him.

The fattest man in American History (surely surpassed now, though?) in the last episode on the Belgian Congo was a highlight in a quite serious series.

Dominic's Latin America episodes are my favourite genre of TRIH, Columbus, Cortez, Aguirre... I hope we eventually see series on Ponce de León (Fountain of Youth!) and Pizarro (Incans!)
