Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day walk in Washington, DC, October 11-13th. Sam Sedghi collaborated with Team Captain Erica Folange for the donation. With the prevalence of the disease (someone is diagnosed every 19 seconds and dies from the disease every 74 seconds,) this will allow the Susan G.

Play Unplugged opens up and unboxes Centaurs & Pan and Satyrs from Wargames Foundry.



From the unboxing:

Wargames Foundry is one of a few companies that are hobby triple threats, producing great miniatures, paints, and books. But how can you decide what miniatures to unbox when you are talking about a company with such a robust figure line? Having reviewed Jake Thronton’s Tribes of Legend, it seemed only fitting to unbox something from their Greek Mythology range of figures. This episode looks at the Centaurs and Pan and Satyrs packs.
