You know, you don't have to go full-on with a hobby or talent. You can just do it when you kinda feel like it. You dabble. And soon, you'll be able to dabble more with Malifaux because the Dabblers minions are coming to the game soon.

From the article:

This week, Waldo grew tired of all his old hobbies (setting stuff aflame, watching things burn, dancing in ashes, etc.) and decided to try something new for a change: knitting. Or, at least that’s what he told the police after they caught him weaving on the road.

So, while we make sure Waldo never knits-and-drives again, let’s take a look at what kinds of storms have been brewing up in the design room!

Not everyone gets to utilize their nightmares or step backwards in time immediately when they journey through the Breach. Sometimes you’ve got to dabble until you’ve figured out what sort of special gifts the Breach has given you (if anything).

Which is why we’re taking a look at an upcoming Minion that will be coming out in the next Malifaux expansion: the Dabbler!

Being able to jump in and out of shadows is a pretty handy skill in general. When you're in the dark, twisty passages of the Nethermaze, it's that much better. The Shadeborn, one of the two warbands coming in the new Warhammer Underworlds box can do it. See how they manage this skill in this preview.

From the article:

With Nethermaze coming to pre-order on Saturday, warbands are starting to slink out of the shadows in an attempt to conquer the maddening labyrinth. We’ve run over the rules for up-and-coming Skaven throat-cutter Slynk Skittershank and his motley Clawpack, and today it’s the Shadeborn’s turn to step into the spotlight.

One day, you want to play Fantasy. One day, you want to play Cyberpunk. One day, you want to play Space Opera. If you don't want to have to learn a new gaming system for each of these, you should check out the Furious Action SysTem rules (FAST for short). The new multi-genre RPG book is up on Kickstarter now.

From the campaign:

Welcome to the Furious Action SysTem, or FAST for short! When I set out to create this mechanic, I couldn’t help remembering a talk I’d had with Savage Worlds designer Shayne Hensley at some long-forgotten GenCon in which he said, ‘I designed Savage Worlds in the way I did because I’m a lazy DM’. Those words have stuck with me for over a decade, and the older I get, the more a complex game simply seems like too high a hill to climb. It was for that reason alone that I sat down and decided I wanted to create a multi-genre RPG that not only could play in both Fantasy and Science Fiction with equal ease, but also would take the weight of sustained accounting set-up and table combat off the gamemaster’s shoulders.

The campaign's around 3x funded with 22 days left to go.

<whoop! whoop! whoop!> As you'd expect with a Codex: Imperial Knights preview, we've got a Giant Robot Alert. I'm not saying that I'm going to be starting a 40k army soon, but if I were, it might just be one of these. Get a look at some of the special rules the faction's getting in this preview.

From the article:

War horns blare amid crackling warp storms and twisted flocks of pterrorshades amassing on the sickly horizon. Yes, the Chaos Knights Army Box is making its implacable advance, and the Noble pilots of the Imperial Knight Houses are twitching with righteous fury – both factions will be getting their new codex soon.

How can any warrior hope to take down a baleful machine bearing the Favour of the Dark Gods, you ask? The only way to fight such beasts is through steel and honour. To that end, the new Codex: Imperial Knights helps these valiant pilots draw upon the Code Chivalric, a stringent set of martial codes they follow during battle.

I have to say, my Tuesday went along much like my Monday. I don't know if I caught a mild case of something or what, but when I clock out at the end of the day, it's like, "And time for bed." And, I mean, it does make the days go by quickly. That's for sure. I'm hoping that snacking on some bite-sized gaming stories will help me stay awake. Today on the platter we have:

New HDF Bases Available From Puppets War

18 new HDF bases products just arrived to our store

1UP-Dice II Up On Kickstarter

Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start.

 ...And just like that, we're back with a new and improved campaign! We've got extra lives and we're taking this campaign to the next level!

1UP-Dice is unlocking something radical! Growing up influenced by 8-bit consoles and RPGs, we thought what would be more gnarly than mashing the two worlds together.

Regal Rollers' Premiere Dice Collection Up On Kickstarter

Regal Rollers has been an outlet for me as the world seems to get crazier and crazier. It’s given me the opportunity to be creative when adult life tends to offer so few opportunities for that, and tabletop gaming as a whole has enabled me to meet and play alongside so many talented and delightful people.

I started making dice as a way of contributing to character designs in the games that I ran, as well as the ones I played in. I’ve always enjoyed making dice with themes and ideas in mind. That’s why you’ll see references to natural phenomena, fairytales and science fiction through out. This collection is the culmination of two years of crafting, theorising and mad science.

I chose to use Kickstarter because I want to make more of what people want, and less of what people don't want. My dream is that these dice help you tell your own stories, build your own characters, and go on your adventures, the same as they helped me.

The folks over at Ares Games didn't just want to bring you one new Quartermaster General release. So, they've got two for you. Quartermaster General: 1914 and Quartermaster General WW2 Prelude are both available now over in their webshop.

From the announcement:

Ares Games announces the arrival of two new releases in the Quartermaster General card-driven strategy games series designed by Ian Brody - Quartermaster General: 1914, a new game that recreates the “Great War””, with mechanics reflecting the military, economy, and politics of the time, and Quartermaster General WW2 Prelude, an expansion for Quartermaster General WW2 Second Edition that can be played as a prequel of the game to set the stage for the conflict.
