Bits of War

Fridaaaaaaaaaaay!

It has been quite a week. Lots got done. Lots still to do. But it will be the weekend afterward, and that's always fun. Gonna be hanging out with a friend and celebrate her birthday (which was Thursday). So, should be good times. But before we have cake and ice cream and such, we should snack on some bite-sized gaming stories.

It's a new week. And we're into a new month as well. We've made it to June, and Summer (or Winter, for you Southern Hemisphere watchers) will be here soon as well. How the time does fly. "Noticing the calendar" aside, it's time to get you some new terrain pieces to make your gaming tables look good.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: 15mm Roman Fort Available From Baueda, New Hive City News Stands Available From Tabletop Scenics, New: Bolt Action Rural Village Set, New: Sarissa Scenery Sets, and New: Bolt Action Battlefield Accessories.

Weekend Eve. We've made it. And a day faster than usual, since we started this week on Tuesday (or, at least, many of us here in the US did). Tomorrow will be filled with Dungeons & Doggies... which reminds me, I should finish writing up that character. He's a Great Pyr, but he thinks he's actually a long-tailed, pygmy polar bear... because it's my character and I can decide to do that kind of stuff if I want. Anyway, before I dine on dog snacks, let's have some bite-sized gaming snacks.

Today on the platter we have: New Egyptian Fighters Available From Brother Vinni, Amazons of See Up On Kickstarter, Infernal Chaos Dwarves and Hobgoblins Up On Kickstarter, Ruins of Sanctuary 90mm Bases Available from Tabletop-Art, and Green Baron Available From Kromlech.

Friday Eve! We're almost back to the weekend. Just another day and change and we'll get there. I'm certainly confident. And, at least here in Atlanta, it's supposed to rain much of the weekend. I'm certainly thrilled about that. We'll see if we actually get the rain, though. In the meantime, let's make sure your gaming tables look good.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: War World Gaming Taking Pre-Orders For Medieval Guard Tower Terrain, Updated Happy Panda Cafe Terrain Available From Antenociti's Workshop, Hive City Bundles Available From Tabletop Scenics, and Pwork Wargames Taking Pre-orders for UK Games Expo.

It's Monday. Who would've expected that?

We're now firmly in the latter-half of the week. The weekend will be here soon. And, with it, I hope you have some gaming prepped. I do. Other than that, we'll just have to see. As for said gaming, you'll want your gaming tables looking good, and we're here to help with that.

It's Monday. I don't know what you did over the weekend, but I did... a decent amount of cleaning. Maybe not as much as I could've/would've/should've, but I came across Hot Ones on YouTube. Yeah, I know, many of you are already huge fans and have been for quite some time. They're in Season 8 and I just found them. It happens. But seriously, most of my weekend was spent binging that show.
For those of you that don't know, it's an interview show where a guy interviews all sorts of celebrities: chefs, comedians, recording artists, stuff like that. Oh, and they eat progressively hotter chicken wings as they go along, ending with stuff that's got 2mil+ Scoville ratings. That's a thing.
Anyway, what does that have to do with gaming? Well, a lot of the gamers I know are chow-hounds, and many like spicy food. So there's that. But, I know, you want to know about terrain. So we'll get to that.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: New Dead Horses and Dead Cows from Warlord Games, Hive City Transit Stations Available from Tabletop Scenics, and Sci-fi/PostApocalyptic 3d Printable Terrain Up On Kickstarter.

It's cold out. Like, really cold out. And, I mean, I'm here in Atlanta, which, relatively speaking, isn't all that cold. But back up in Chicago where I grew up... yeah, that's cold. Best to stay inside and do some gaming. With how cold it is outside, it seems all the terrain-makers are taking a bit of a break. Just a quick Terrain Corner for you today.

We have: Grimdark Statues Bundle Available From Bits of War.

Someone decided it needed to be Monday again. While I'm not all that thrilled with the decision, I do know that it's going to be a short week. So that's gonna be good. Thursday is Thanksgiving here in the US, and so I'll be off Thursday and Friday, just chillin' and trying to avoid all the fracas at the Maul. In the meantime, though, let's get your gaming tables lookin' as good as my dining room table will be this Thursday.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Frosty Plain Gaming Mat Available From Pwork Wargame, TerrainCrate Town & Battlefield available to order now, and Hive City Habitat Available From Tabletop Scenics.

Welcome to November. While October might be my favorite month in terms of weather, November contains my favorite holiday of the year: Thanksgiving (yes, Canadians, I know you have Thanksgiving in October). I've got 4 weeks to prep for Thanksgiving and then Thanksgiving 2: Thank Harder on Friday. But while I make sure my dinner table will look great, I currently need to make sure that your gaming tables look great.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Tabletop Scenics Releases Ork Troop Transmitta and New Gaslands Game Mat Available From Deep-Cut Studio.

The week is rolling along. Mine's been going by pretty quickly. Being busy will do that, I suppose. Lots of stuff going on, so the time goes by. Looking forward to the weekend. Not too much planned for me, but that's entirely the point. Sometimes you gotta just do nothing and be happy about that. But that doesn't mean that other weekends won't be filled with gaming, and that means wanting good-looking gaming tables.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: New Official Butcher's Guild Mat Available From Deep-Cut Studio, Dungeon Flagstones RPG Encounter PVC Mat Available From Loke Battlemats, Dust Town Mat Available From Pwork Wargame, and Hive City Arbitratorum Available From Tabletop Scenics.

So, upsides and downsides. Downside: it's Monday. Upside: it's October. Downside: the weekend is really far away. Upside: I have gaming already lined up for said weekend. Downside: I was reaaally comfy this morning and didn't want to get out of bed. Upside: It's been a pretty decent morning, so far, with some really great e-mails in my inbox on some really cool projects I'm helping out with. Also upside: we've got some terrain articles for you. Also, also upside: After the first "downside/upside," my mental narration turned into Tom Bodett's voice, a-la Good Idea/Bad Idea.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: New Plastic Church Terrain From Warlord Games, Darkburg Gaming Mat Available From Pwork Wargames, and New Triumphal Arch Available From Tabletop Scenics.

Well, it's the price we pay for having a weekend: there has to be a week to go with it. Can't have up without down, light without dark, left without right, weekend without week. But we'll make it back to the weekend eventually. Also, it's Autumn! Woo! *dances around with pumpkins in the falling leaves* So, as it's Monday, lets get your gaming tables looking good.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Tabletop Scenics Taking Orders For Genetorum, Badlands Gaming Mat Available From Pwork Wargame, and The Wizard's Tower 3D Printable Terrain Up On Kickstarter.

Well, it's Monday once again. I can't really say I'm all that thrilled about it. But waddyagonnado? I can't speed up time or alter the harvest (though, entirely tangentially, I had some just-picked Honeycrisp apples this weekend that were (censored) amazing. So that harvest is going well). Anyway, seeing as it's Monday, let's get you a new crop of terrain stories.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Lady Dragon Running RPG Mat Kickstarter, New Line of 15mm Terrain is available at Crescent Root Studio, and Hive City Cathedral Available From Tabletop Scenics.

We've made it to Thursday. Just a bit more work and we'll get back to the weekend. I'm sure we can do it. And while I'm thinking my weekend might be filled with a deep-cleaning of the apartment, that doesn't mean you can't go and do some gaming. In fact, if someone out there could do some extra gaming for me, that'd be appreciated. And when you're out gaming, you'll probably want to have some nice terrain. So let's take care of that.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Industrial Pipe - 45 degrees Available From Tabletop Scenics, Acheson Creations' Last Two Viking Buildings Now Available, and Dark Gotham Game Mat Available From Pwork Wargame.
