The cover photo shows a hand painted 90mm Knight by a Russian artist who started to learn at age 6. He is now 86. If I can find his name I will give due credit because the paint job on this miniature is awesome.

Concerns are all over the net in regard to Games Workshop pulling the hardcover Warhammer 40k rulebooks off their stores shelves, prompting rumours of an early release 7th Edition WH40k. That would make this edition the shortest yet. Pictures are already being shown online with regard to the races represented in the box set, and at this stage it might be Blood
Angels and Orks. The rumours also put the release of 7th Edition at the end of this month. We’ll have to wait and see. Necromunda is still ongoing so don’t forget to squeeze in a game, if you can. This can be done at your place as well so if you have the gear at home get into it. Just let me know the result please. GGG Glen Taylor has started a great new game, using his own creativity and having drawn on his experience with other games. He has used Darian Chase, Michael Orton and myself as game testers. Once you grasp the concept, the game was very much an enjoyable experience. It made me start putting figures together that had sat in boxes on the shelf, and Darian went straight out and put in a $160 order to Warlord Games. Glen tells me I can’t let out too much as he still has to twig certain things and lock in a name for the game. What I can tell you is, to get your Villagers ready...

Gamer for life, but where do you get the time? I love miniature gaming and I often berate myself for not making a serious business out of it. Whenever I go into one of those older hobby stores and look around at all of the different hobbies that are out there, I am always drawn to the ones with the little people, be that model railways, architect models, model aircraft and of course Wargaming. When I was a member of a club in the mid ninties we had our club meet every second Saturday. Games with friends
would also be played outside of these times to allow for campaign type games which wouldn’t be suited for the club, and roleplay. When my kids came into my life, I saw them as little future wargamers who would always be there as an opponent at home. Bless them to have their own likes when they grew up and wargaming was not a big one. I posted in a similar vein on facebook about how I miss the hobby as it was, where I would
look forward to my White Dwarf, and the seclusion of reading it, savouring the models to be added to my future collection. Now, time is against me, and finding that balance of game/work/family time has to be planned better than the next holiday or work schedule, as it has to match up with someone in my same situation. They say that it’s “There are only a waste of time, if you many gaming didn’t enjoy it. Enjoy it all. systems out
Hints & Tips - Terrain Tables Continuing on the trend of gaming tables, I am currently experimenting with another technique to get the most out of your gaming room space, and terrain variety. Get hold of some sheets of foam, the heavier density if you can but the cheaper will do. Try and get sheets as thick as you can. We spoke about MDF squares last issue, but imagine a 4 foot x 4 foot sheet that you can create modular terrain. If it is a good density and thickness, you can plan out an entire battlefield of your choice. Make yourself rivers or trenches by marking out the foam and cut-
ting into it. Ensure that you don’t cut more than half the depth of your piece, as this will reduce the strength of the foam board. You can choose to glue buildings right onto this, if you can store it upright or have the room, otherwise leave the buildings off if you plan to store it on it’s edge. Make sure that when you store the piece on its edge, make sure that you have something to support the weight to save dents and chips in your new battle board. Mine here will be permanent so I will be gluing buildings and other scenery directly onto it. Either way you can lift it
off the table should you wish to use different terrain or a different game system. The great thing is that it is easily transportable to other parts of your gaming area.
there...all you have to do is find one that suits you”
The other table I will mention is the Sand Table, and requires a table especially built with raised edges to hold sand. This allows you to sculpt the ground before each battle, and can be coloured with spray paint. Eventually after many games you will have free flock for your bases, however this is for a more permanent gaming table. Check the website for Foam suppliers and Good Luck.
From the Collector’s Vault Collecting. Why do we do it? Why do we do anything? It’s something that gives one a sense of achievement and satisfaction. I recall listening to a radio program many years ago about collecting, and I vividly recall the collector responding with this answer to a question I can’t quite recall precisely. “We collect because ultimately we like to show off to
others what it is that we collect.” This is true, at the heart of all this banter about collecting, we like to show off what we have accumulated, otherwise, who but the individual ever knows what they have, and where is the satisfaction and purpose in that? The desire people have in collecting can be many and varied. Some like to collect only one particular theme SNAKE

or perhaps they are overly ambitious and collect everything; it comes down to an individuals taste and budget. Myself, if I collect something I am a completionist, which is a person who has to complete the series or set. Half completed sets just leave me unsatisfied and unhappy. It’s one reason why I refuse to even look at anything that is collectable.

MORDHEIM Simon Machin, Courtney Halverson and myself kicked off the Mordheim Campaign in April. After organising our Warbands, we rolled off to select sides. We had decided on a Treasure Hunt scenario, as all of us would be playing at the same time. Simon had an Orc Warband, including a Shaman that had a spell that would shoot green bolts of stuff, out of it’s nostrils. Courtney had Skaven, and rubbed his hands together as he spoke of poisoned blades. I had Dwarf Treasure Hunters, which considering the scenario wasn’t too bad. I won the roll and picked my gaming edge first. The nature of the scenario was your Warband searched all buildings and on a roll of two 6’s, you found the treasure and then had to get it back to your deployment edge. I suggested we play to the opposite side, as buildings in our deployment zone were exempt from search under the scenario. This changed that rule so that all buildings were able to be searched. I might add that if no one managed two 6’s then the last building not searched would automatically hold the treasure.
The Mordheim table. I set up from this side . Simon was to my right. Courtney set up opposite.
I began my turn by searching all of the closest buildings, but with only 5 Dwarfs my pace was as slow as the Dwarves movement of 3. Simon went next, rolling for his animosity with the Orcs (All 12 of them) and then began searching the buildings on his side. His deployment allowed him to set up part of his Warband on the castle wall. Courtney then began the same actions with his Skaven.

The board setup from another view, My Thunderer tries to line up one of Courtney’s Skaven through the gate, as Simon draws a bead on my Trollslayer…
Courtney’s Grey Seer was the first to die, being shot down by several arrows from the Orcs. The battle then really began between the Skaven and the Orcs, leaving the Dwarves to continue their search of the buildings of the city. The Trollslayer ran toward a tower on the outskirts of the city, drawing the attention of two Orcs on the castle tower. Fortunately for the Trollslayer, negatives for moving and shooting proved a boon. The Orcs get into the city proper, searching every area while at the same time, clashing with the Skaven. Numbers began to tell as Courtney lost 25% of his Warband and started his leadership rolls. The Skaven leader desperately tried to close with the Orcs to gain revenge for the killing of the Seer. The Orcs animosity rolls did not always go their way and many an Orc began to turn on their fellows or stand their and do nothing at all. The Dwarves had searched all that they could and were now making their way to the last few buildings to try As the and source the Thunderer frantically treasure. Only five reloads, the buildings were left Courtney’s Skaven scuttle through the outskirts Skaven to search, and the enemies were closing.. launch their attack..

MORDHEIM The tension was too much and Courtney’s Skaven withdrew, after killing a Dwarf Thunderer, running back to their hidden lairs, and unwilling to face both the Orcs and the vengeful Dwarves. Two buildings were left to search. Two towers, one in the city and one on the outskirts. As the Orcs began to mass their Warband toward the city one, the lone Trollslayer made his way to the furthest tower at the edge of the table. The other Dwarves began forming positions to try to halt the Orcs with firepower. Only one tower would hold the treasure, but which? I rolled for the Trollslayer, but the elusive double 6’s would not come up. That meant that the Orcs had access to the treasure. The Trollslayer raced his way back to help in the final battle as the Orcs seized the treasure. At half movement speed while carrying the treasure, the Orcs had to strategize, favouring the Dwarves who had plenty of time to get into their positions. The Engineer and the remaining Dwarf fired their weapons, targeting the Shaman and the Orc warrior protecting him. Both survived and the Shaman lifted his head to target the Engineer with his nostrils. The spell went off but to the Dwarf’s relief, no injuries were taken. It was during the Orc animosity rolls that one Orc killed another, dropping Simons force below 25%, and causing his leadership test. He passed the initial one, but failed the next one at the start of his turn. The Orcs turned and fled from the table in a disorganised rabble. The treasure belonged to the Dwarves...
I have to say I was surprised by this as I really thought that the Orcs had the game, but it goes to show that play them all till the end, because you never know how the dice will roll...
The last building on the block...

Dark Heresy
is a role playing game set in the grim darkness of the 41st
millennium , the decaying dark future of Warhammer 40,000. Below is the continuing background story of Bekki Imam, GGG member Simon Machins’ character in Dark Heresy, continued from last 3 issues. Sister Krankies diaries Part 5 My name is Bekki Imam, I am an Acolyte of the Handmaidens of the Emperor, an Adepta Sororitas.
We search the Inquisitional section to find a recording on a holo-tablet left by the Inquisitor Razamos. We access the security codes and find the entrance to his personal quarters through a special elevator, and, using the code we gain access to the secure area. The Tech Priest tries to download all the information directly from the holo-tablet into his internal memory chip, and almost cooks what meat parts he still possesses. He seems inexperienced. Why we ended up with him I have no idea but the Emperor protects. He must be here for a reason. The holo-tablet accepted our Inquisitorial badges as identification and we were able to get the pass-codes. We enter the secure personal quarters of Inquisitor Razemos. The area appears to be a similar to a prison cell block. We gain access to a data terminal in a secure data terminal room and the Tech Priest again downloads information and gains us access to the cell block proper. We search the area and find a security room where the two Duskworlders each find a set of Stormtrooper Armour which they immediately make use of. We also find a two handed naval shot cannon that Carno utilizes. We search the first available cell and find a Tech Priest in cryogenic status. We decide to awaken him as we discovered he was only put in status 48.37 years ago. He awakens. He identifies himself as Hastus, an Inquisitional agent of the late Inquisitor Razamos himself. He shows his rosette and tells us that he has been putting himself in status every fifty years. He searches for a way off the ship every fifty years but to no avail, as the ship has been drifting in the warp for several hundred years. We verify his story by checking the records in the data terminal room. He says he needs information stored in Inquisitors Razamos’s room but is unable to gather it. We tell him we need the same data, and he agrees to help. He remained in the data terminal room while we make our way to the Inquisitors personal data storage room. We find out several of the Inquisitors prisoners have escaped. The Tech Priest tells us they are Genestealers. We ask for further information and find out they are very dangerous organisms that the late Inquisitor was studying. We find out we have a limited time frame as the ships engines are building up too much energy, and that they are going to blow in the next twelve hours. He explains the energy will automatically be redirected to warp drives. We know we must get the information soon so we can escape the ship.

RIVERHORSE GAMES Founder and Games Designer Alessio Cavatore and GGG member, tells us more about his game site creations...
Shuuro is the core of a new system of abstract war gaming, where you are in command of armies of chess pieces. Differently from traditional chess, you are not forced to field a given set of pieces on the board, but can choose which pieces to field, based on your skill and tactical preferences. The innovative gaming board features terrain elements that change position every time you play, so that each game introduces a different challenge. Shuuro is a game for two players, which merges the precision and rigour of chess with the creativity and variety of war-gaming. It does so by attaching a points value to each traditional chess piece and allowing the players to spend a predetermined amount of these points (say, a total of 800 points) to select the chess ‘army’ that they think makes the best use of the points. This creates a feeling of ‘ownership’ towards the particular combination the player thinks is the most effective. The ‘battle’ will then take place on a large chess board of twelve by twelve squares. This board, however, also introduces a new and unique element to the game. Each of the four six-by-six quadrants of the board contains two plinths that block the movement of the pieces. These plinths are placed randomly at the beginning of every game with the help of a dice, ensuring that every game will be different and present unique challenges. The plinths also help in balancing the game, restricting the movement of Queens, Bishops and Rooks, while at the same time allowing Knights to land onto them and using them as defensive positions (as only an enemy Knight can take them while they’re there). It is worth noting that game box also includes a normal chessboard and full rules for traditional chess, making it good to learn chess and allowing players to engage in this great classic as well as the innovative Shuuro.
LOKA is a fantastically sculpted Chess sets and a brand new take on playing Chess, brought to you by River Horse. LOKA is played with fantasy-inspired Chess pieces, each evoking the powerful imagery of one of the four elements. At its heart, LOKA uses the rules of Chess, and Alessio has some significant twists in mind in the form of new mechanics: Choose your army - Each player get to choose which pieces they put onto the board, meaning both players command different armies on the battlefield – do you field a small but elite force with three Queens, or do you go for a mass horde of Pawns? Fantasy Scenery – Change the shape of the battlefield with movement blocking terrain that alters the path you’ll take into combat. Dice Driven Combat – a simple and elegant system using eight sided dice adds some unpredictability to combat, placing extra emphasis on strategy and positioning as pieces build in power with support from their comrades."

SPECIAL INTEREST - MORDHEIM TABLE PROJECT - PART 2 This issue we again look at an exiting project undertaken by Matt Garside who resides in the UK. Over a period of four months he created a MORDHEIM gaming table that spurred a fresh interest in the game, now out of production. As we at GGG have started our own Mordheim campaign this month, it seemed timely that we were able to share Matts endeavour, and after making contact with him, he shared the following photographs and explanations. My buildings... The materials I use are either MDF again 6mm, or foam core . MDF is easier to glue and you don't need to hide the foam bit from spray but the foam core doesn't require a jigsaw, it's also easier to make windows with the foam core method.
Both of these are decorated with Tudor style coffee stirrers plus timber strips for extra durability and change of texture. I also have quite a few Warhammer building bits which I've used sparingly across all the buildings.
All my buildings are mounted on Games Workshop movement tray, this makes the buildings stronger and comes with a flagstone pattern, I just chip the edges with a knife. Roof tiles are done by the tried and tested method of lots and lots of individual shingles cut from card. ( This drove me mad ) SNAKE EYES
12
This is how I set up my street, 4" wide and 3"deep ..
All the buildings were then sprayed black with Humbrol dark brown acrylic spray, they were then dust sprayed here and there with a grey spray, all flagstones, tiles and timber was base coated and then drybrushed up with a cream paint, this was the same technique on all my walls and fences (limited palate to keep the board drab and dreary)
Next I'm just adding some scatter rubble to break up the flat areas and I'll be building a temple corner piece and probably a pub.
The fountain is an upside down cake stand with an MDF brick surround, and some Warhammer bits on top.

The Mordheim campaign has kicked off now, the idea was to only use fully painted War Bands and scenery and the games look amazing. I’ve included some of the game shots out of coolness…

Welcome to the world of BloodBowl, the fast paced and take no prisoners game of fantasy football! Before you dive too deeply into creation of a team take a moment to stand back and look at every faction. I'll go over the factions in each issue and talk about their strengths and weaknesses.
Humans: The Empire or Human team is probably the most versatile of any in the entire game, they have the blistering speed of MV8 catchers coupled with the strong muscle game offered by the Ogre, Blitzers and available star players. As for weaknesses the only true frailty the human team has is being 'too vanilla'. They never excel at anything in particular and can get caught off guard by teams that are excellent at speed or strength. After a few (good) games, a well rounded human team is something to be feared!!
For a starting roster with the Human team I'd recommend: 1 Thrower 3 Blitzers 2 Catchers & 7 Linemen. Fill out your initial coin purse with re rolls and team staff.
This team will give you the biggest impact on the pitch, allowing you to hold the field using the power of your blitzers and hiding your catchers from punishment on the turn you kick off.
Skills: The first still for a Catcher should always be block. Having the ability to Blodge (block and dodge) on a player that is movement 8 is crazy! Unless you roll well enough for +1 Str! After that max out on the agility tree first. Linemen should always get block or guard first, allowing them to assist better in the player turn and defensively improve their survivability. Throwers should aim for strong arm, safe pass and also block. Blitzers can benefit from mighty blow and guard, however tackle is also invaluable.

On The Home-Front Tim Prenzler is my regular 40k opponent. Normally it is just a mission out of the rulebook, but this time for something different we devised a game were we would have forces of 750 points, each. We would play the game from the end of the table, representing gearing up for an attack on a 2000 point Ork force that was escorting a Stompa across the other end of the table. The Orks would not fire until being fired upon. We as the attacking force, had to hold the table for five rounds until the Shadowsword arrived to deal with the Stompa. We had never used super heavies in a normal game until now. We rolled off to see who would start, and whoever went second would play the Orks initial retaliation.
Various shots of the Ork force as it makes it way across the board end. They would be unaware of the attack until it happened. If any of the Orks moved off the board before they were attacked, then they would come back on in their turn from their deploying edge, representing an ongoing movement...

Tim setup his Dark Angels as I deployed my Blood Angels. We were looking forward to a bloody fight (and the Blood Angels licked their lips in anticipation). Tim fired his Devastator Squad from the top of his bastion, using his Prescience psychic power from the close by librarian. Scoring multiple hits, Tim managed to immediately remove 3 hull points from the 12 initial ones on the Stompa. The Orks halted their advance and turn to face the threat. Their flyers came on to seek out targets of their own against the Marines. The Dark Angels and Blood Angels stood together,
awaiting the Ork onslaught and knowing that they had only to hold on long enough...
SNAKE

Most of the damage sustained to the Space Marines were from the Stompa as it engaged all of it’s fearsome weapons, and from the flyers whose ability to close and strafe. One Ork flyer met its match against the bastion and the other tried to finish the job of taking out the Devastators. The Blood Angels assaulted the Orks while the Dark Angels used ranged warfare.
The Blood Angels Death Company dropped down to assault the Ork force from the rear, cutting through the first mob with relative ease. The Dark Angels had brought down a flyer and were preparing to repeat the action. The Dark Angel tactical squads were being cut down by the flyers and the Stompa was adding to the carnage, each successful hit turning the Marines into paste. Between the Space Marine forces the Stompa was reduced to 3 hull points, then only 1. We had to roll initially on the Shadowsword turning up early. As luck would have it, the dice rolled in our favour and the behemoth arrived on the other edge of the table...behind the Stompa. The Shadowsword, grinding its way onto the battlefield, smote the evil Stompa with its great cannon. The battle was won for the Imperium. We had a great time playing a scenario like this. We found out afterward that we had underplayed the Stompa, having misread the rules for firing at multiple targets, so it could have dished out a lot more than it did. Even so it was still scary. We could have continued the game but stopped it there, although the Orks would've gone down with a few more marines to their tally.

Members Spotlight - Simon Machin I started gaming when I was 14, playing first edition D&D and also the Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone adventure books. My introduction to miniature wargaming was at the Warhounds gaming club roughly 1998 when third edition WH40k was released. I nearly walked away from it as my first opponent was a cheat. The next person wasn’t, luckily, and I stayed. I met some great friends at the gaming club that I am still friends with today, although the club is long gone. I now own every 40k army of some size excepting Tau. I also have three Warhammer Fantasy armies (Beastmen, Daemon & Orc), and a huge Battletech army.
I normally game at friends places, unless I am running an Apocolypse game, as they are held at my home. Although I normally play 40k with my Imperial Guard Army, my favourite gaming system is 40k Roleplay. I run sessions of this game, every few weeks. My next purchase will probably be more Orks for 40k. I want a Stompa. I am also waiting to see what is happening with the 40k 7th edition on the near horizon, and how soon after will the new Ork Codex be from then. My favourite miniature would have to be my old Warhound Titan. It’s the old yellow resin one but I still like him...
