The first post

Hello, my name is Alex and I'm a gamer.

No, not a PC gamer, or even that much of a video gamer beyond my 3DS these days - I'm an analogue gamer; board games, card games, RPGs and, the main subject I intend for this blog, miniatures-based wargames.

On my Instagram bio I distil my wargaming into 5 main areas:

OGSG - original specialist games from GW which for me is Necromunda, Mordheim and Gorkamorka.

Warlord Games - mainly Bolt Action and Konflikt '47 as at the time of starting the blog.

Osprey Games - I'm a sucker for skirmish games for almost any setting and their Osprey Wargames Series (aka the 'blue series') has all sorts of options.

Darklands - featuring, IMHO the finest fantasy miniatures in the world, this is my labour of love project that I'm building up to by slowly developing my skills on the above games.

Infinity - for me, this is the most engaging sci-fi world I've seen on the tabletop and with miniatures that are heads, shoulder and pecs above their competitiors this is another project I'm working towards.

Of course, beyond these main areas there are some other games and settings that I have/want so there'll be a good mix of stuff here I hope!

I aim to share my painted stuff, my homebrew lore and all sorts of Hobby Stuff I do here going forward so hopefully there'll be more to see here soon!
