One of the more-popular Imperial Guard groups is the Death Korps of Krieg. I’ve always loved how they look, with their trench coats and gas masks. It’s a very WWI-feel to me, which I think is awesome, since I think that war gets overlooked a lot more than it should. Anyway, there’s some new units, …

We all know my love of “try before you buy.” Being an informed consumer is very important in this day and age. I also think it shows a company feels they’ve got a quality product. “Look, we’ll let you try it for free and we know you’ll come back for more.” That’s what Knuckleduster is …
Even Origins-Award Winning games can sometimes use an update. Such is the case with Kampfgruppe Command, the game of WWII conflicts.

Whether it’s Blue Apron or Lootcrate or Graze or Comic Bento, every month they’re getting a mystery box of goods, often with exclusive or special-release items. Well, fans of Privateer Press can now get their own, specially-made box, as they have announced the …

Meanwhile, on the Blood Bowl pitches, Skaven players can recruit Glart Smashrip to their team. From the website: A figure whose repute was known well beyond his Legion during the …
One of the games that’s been around for as long as I can remember is Battletech. I was first introduced to it as Mechwarrior II on my computer, but it’s been a tabletop game (in several forms) for just as long. Well, Catalyst Game Labs has moved around some personnel to make sure it continues …
