Two by Two

two elohi doug meyer

Why have one stunning Basilean Elohi when you can have two!

Doug has done a great job on these Armada ships, with some fantastically realistic waves on the bases. 


Tigrax has the Power!

Simon has done a great job at painting his Tigrax to look like everyone’s favorite battle cat!

As you would expect from any battle ready cat, a Tigrax is able to sneak through the densest jungle or creep through the shadowy streets of mega cities, the tigrax is a foe to be feared. They’re also pretty nifty in the Overdrive arena too! 


Two Hot to Handle

abyssal chroneas tom robinson

We couldn’t decide which of Tom’s fine works of art to show off, so here, have them both!

The basing is smashing and really helps make the models pop. 

The Chroneas is a fantastic model that really lends itself well to a heavy drybrush like this. 

Tom has delved into our undead range to create his Abyssal Ghouls and added a blood red paint job to tie them into the army.

Highlight of the Day

reddit kordeus deadzone

Over on Reddit, Kordeus has been painstakingly edge highlighting these Asterians and it’s worth it for the results!   

Again some lovely basing being done this week, this simple yet effective idea really gives a sense of SciFi.


Heather Basing

halfling rifleman on dog

Like we say, some excellent basing projects this week, including this wonderful floral display from Heather.

Great work on the heather…Heather (sorry) 

Not to forget the brilliant work on the actual model itself! This Halfling Cavalry model, seen here with a black powder rifle so it can be used as a Wild Runner!

Deadzone: Rulebook & Force Lists

In the far-flung worlds of the galaxy, humans and aliens clash in the battlefields of the future. The galaxy is full of opportunity, adventure peril and horror for those willing to gamble life for profit. Beyond the core worlds of the planets settled by humanity, the GCPS has made new allies and faced alien threats, as the mega corporations strip planets of their resources with no regard for the inhabitants. As a result, humankind has both encroached upon, and consumed, ancient races and star realms. But when alien horrors are uncovered, or deadly new diseases take hold, whole planets are shut off from civilization under a Containment Protocol, and wiped from navigational maps. With the veil of civilization lifted, rival factions descend into furious conflict, each with their own unique claim to the spoils of the ensuing chaos.

Deadzone is the fast-paced, breathtakingly elegant, and immersive game of sci-fi skirmish combat for two players.

Together, these books include all of the core rules you’ll need to play, a full campaign system, updated unit lists for each faction, and 16 exciting missions to challenge your strike forces.
