Men In Boxes

A bit of nostalgia here. I'm gearing up for a weekend of working on my wargame table and was surfing for inspiration. Happily, I rediscovered Major General Tremorden Rederring's Colonial-era Wargames at the Wayback Machine. This wargaming group's been a source of inspiration ever since I discovered the wonderful world of miniature wargaming. Just look at that picture above and tell me you're not impressed. WOW! was all I could think off when I saw it. The page has since given its last huzzah and I don't know what's become of the group, but I'm sure I'll be rereading the material they still have archived. A veritable treasure chest of miniature gaming gems, the page embodied the FUN side of miniature gaming, neither taking itself too seriously nor scrimping on the joys of the hobby and its subsidiary hobbies/crafts. It's a pity if such a wonderful resource and such a huge contribution to the hobby is lost. I discovered the page waaaay back...

Screencap from Machinima's youtube video FRAK! FRAK! FRAK! Was that a frakkin' classic cylon raider I just saw! Battlestar Galatica: Blood & Chrome would not air on television. The first of ten segments of the web series will air on November 9th on the Machinima Prime YouTube channel. All of the episodes will air together, on the Syfy channel, in early 2013, and a DVD release will follow. Check out the trailer! http://youtu.be/Qj50xJhWdcM

I just joined a scale modelling and miniature painting community with tons of awesome work. Mainly mecha but very inspiring, especially with regards to the paint effects. Check out the galleries, they have something for everyone. Here's the link to Painted Hobbies.

Just saw the link this morning and pretty excited to catch up on HotT stuff from the best HotT resource on the net. Check out the Stronghold Rebuilt!
