  • I’ve been assembling and priming the Dreadfleet ships this week. The rules seem fun and random, and the models are nifty and OH MY GOD THE MOLD LINES, THE MOLD LINES THEY NEVER END It’s not that they’re especially bad. It’s just that there are about a kilometer of them,...

    Tentakel Games: Dreadfleeting

  • The discourse (oh, how I loathe that word) on 40k and Warhammer has become mind-bogglingly stupid over the years. It’s all competitive this and spam this unit that and I’m-a-casual-gamer-it’s-the-way-it’s-meant-to-be. Then James S comes along and explains it all. He’s a soothing academic voice in the festering cesspit of the...

  • Tentakel Games: Welcome back

    It’s been awfully quiet  here. It’s because I was in a team, making a thing. If you have an Ipad and are interested in journalism, by all means go check it out. It’s in Swedish so I won’t guarantee you’ll actually understand anything in it. So. Gaming. There’s been a...

  • Tentakel Games: My man-cave

    I’ve mentioned that we moved to a new apartment. Beforehand, me and my girlfriend made an agreement. One of the rooms would house a guest bed – and all my hobby stuff. After a few trips to Ikea it’s starting to shape up really well. The table can be extended...

  • Tentakel Games: Contemptor Dread Parts Rundown

    I forgot to add these in the last post. Here you can see the sheer madness of the Contemptor. You could pose this in any way you’d like, action figure style. There is even an extra set of feet that are in a kinda-running-pose. As usual, click th...

  • www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsrmkoggLuM Martin bought a box of GW trees yesterday. The foliage sprues had an … uncommon characteristic. The rubber-y material has the same colour as the regular plastic, so I didn’t notice anything until I picked up a sprue, and it started flopping around like a dead fish. Link to...

  • This photo was taken at 5.30 in the morning, with an Iphone. I finished this lad for the local GW’s Finecast painting competition this Saturday. He didn’t place – the competition was staggering! Still, I’m very happy with how he turned out and wanted to share it with you. May be one of my best [...]

  • Tentakel Games: The hidden Chaotic Contemptor

    Forgeworld previewed their pre-heresy dreadnought variant last Friday. Naturally, I had to order one for my Blood Angels Dreadmob (click here to do the same). Besides being a beautiful update of the old Epic dreadnought model, it borrows its name from one of the very first dreadnought variants. Aah, nostalgia, you are sweet and poisonous. [...]
