Andy (aka Ruckdog) is back with the second video in the DW 3.0 Captain’s Academy series! This video discusses how movement is handled in the new Dystopian Wars.
Greetings! For this post, I’ve got some comparison photos of Warcradle’s new Enlightened models alongside some of Spartan’s old CoA models. These shots will also be featured in a YouTube video where I discuss their similarities and differences. Enjoy!
Greetings! I had the opportunity to get my hands on a copy of the new Dystopian Wars 3.0 starter set, The Hunt for the Prometheus, a little ahead of the general release (ah, the perks of being a Warhost!). I’ve had the opportunity to dig through the goodies in the box, and take some pictures. Here is the gallery of the shots I took!
I’ll be posting a YouTube video soon where I’ll discuss my thoughts on all this stuff in a little more detail! Until next time…
Greetings! It’s been quite some time since I’ve straightened up and cleaned out the ol’ Blogroll (which you can find on the right hand side of the page, under Recent Posts). As inevitably happens, some of the blogs listed there are now defunct, and others are no longer updating. So, I figured it would be a good idea to take out the completely dead ones, and add a few more than I’ve found over the years. I’ll be going through each one in the revised list, and giving a short description. The blogs will be listed in the same order that they are on the right, and I’ll also include the games they cover and if they are active or not as of this post. And so, away we go!
This blog is co-run by a great friend of mine, Ian. He has some great Dystopian Wars content up there, including files for his own homebrew pirate/mercenary faction. It’s no longer updated, but still worth a look.
B6R7 is one of the more impressive sci-fi space gaming websites I’ve run across. Joe has posted all manner of useful guides, unboxings, and product reviews.
CGYSO is a great reference for Star Wars Armada players. Their in-depth tactics articles, references, and custom content make this one not to be missed.
Element 270 (Dystopian Wars Blog/Podcast) – INACTIVE
Element 270 was one of the most prominent DW blogs and podcasts back at the height of the game’s popularity under Spartan. While there have not been any new posts or episodes since 2016, there is still a lot of back-content here that is worth checking out.
FSD has an amazing collection of DW painting, gaming, and news articles. The owner of the blog has shifted his efforts to other social media platforms over the last couple years, but FSD remains a very impressive project, and a great source of inspiration for DW painting and modeling projects!
The Ops Center is the personal blog of my friend Ryjak, where he has posted a wealth of great resources for Firestorm Armada 2.0, including his custom terrain templates. While it has not been updated since 2017, the tactics articles are still interesting.
This is the hobby blog of my good friend Aaron. There is some great stuff here, including some event reports where you might spot some of my models engaged in pitched battle! Though it hasn’t been updated in a while, I still like to go back to this blog once in a while for inspiration.
There you have it! A nice, freshly curated blogroll. I’m hoping to be a bit better about adding and removing blogs to this list in the future. To be honest, it’s a bit disheartening to see just how many of the blogs in the old list were no longer active! If you have a blog yourself, or else know of one that would be a good addition to the list, please let me know. Commenting on this post will do just fine!
Greg and Andy are back to close out the year with the final ep of 2020! As is their tradition, they look back over their gaming experiences from 2020, and then talk about some of the things they are looking forward to in 2021.
For Episode 48, Greg and Andy have Rob on to talk about his store, Fight’s On!, that sells all manner of interesting accessories for both naval games and air combat games. Rob has graciously provided some discount codes to listeners of the show, which you can find below!
Prior to starting the interview, however, Greg, Andy, and Rob went down a bit of a rabbit hole while discussing Disney’s Star Wars TV show, The Mandalorian. You can find this discussion in the second segment of this episode, but be warned; HERE BE SPOILERS!
