Nev's Wargaming

Since I last updated the blog some things have changed for me in the hobbying world. The first thing that has happened is Warlord Games announcing that at the end of September this year a third edition of Bolt Action will be released. All 'Army of...' books will become obsolete but, allegedly all armies will still be usable, though I do wonder where my SAS stand in all of this. Due to this new development I have decided that my 8th Army project will be put on hold until later this year. Below are pictures of the 8th Army project so far. I also played my first game of Blood Bowl against a friend, a break from all the historical stuff. I used my Skaven and managed to pull off a draw, which, given my track record with games, was good. Anyway that is all for now. Happy hobbying

As I have not posted in a couple of years I thought I would start off with an unboxing of an order I recieved from Warlord Games in September 2023. I originally posted it on Tumblr but thought I would do a review on here also. The post is picture heavy.  The parcel arrived well packed and secure with a free sprue of Italian Bersaglieri (I hope I spelt that right) as a gift from Warlord Games  The first model in the package was Warlord's soldier of fortune for September, Jock Lewes. Jock Lewes was one of the founding members of the SAS and inventor of the Lewes bomb which they used to great effect in the Western Desert against German and Italian planes.  The blister pack contained the following: SAS hero Jock Lewes (metal) The second item I unpacked was an 8th Army HQ blister. I rather like these models, they're fun and full of character, particularly the officer who is standing there with his mug of tea and pipe, the other model I like is the radio...
