More Eldar Images Leaked
Two more little gems for you from the up coming White Dwarf of new Eldar stuff. Wraithblades and the new Eldar flyer, the name of which escapes me. I’m not convinced by the distinctly human design of the flyer. Looks a little bit like the Eurofig…
Horus Heresy Weekender Charity Giveaway
John Caboche of The First Expedition forum is running a Horus Heresy Weekender charity raffle to raise money for Swindon Children without a Diagnosis which is an extremely worthwhile and important cause to support. Because it’s for children for crying out loud. The prize is a fully signed copy of the Imperial Truth. I shit thee not. […]
Batman – Arkham Origins Trailer
This is just too cool not to share. They’ve done me Batman proud with this one. Can’t wait for the game release in a couple of short months.
Dreadball Arena – A Review
Whilst at Salute this year I stopped off at good friend of The Shell Case, Amera Plastic Mouldings. I’ve always been a fan of the company as they produce great looking terrain at prices that won’t make you begrudge paying it. And as scenery is often the last thing on a gamer’s mind, that’s a […]
The Importance of Chaps
This was supposed to be my 700th post but the excitement of new Eldar stuff got the better of me. So if we can focus on the 700th post landmark rather than my over eagerness that’s be great. As it is/was a landmark I thought I’d write about something very important. The Chaps. The Chaps, […]
Decisions, Decisions
I recall as a child that it would take me an age to decide what toys to buy. The reason for this was simple, I had only a finite amount of pocket money and no matter how much I might wish I could, I could never possess all the shiny Transformers, GI Joe, or MASK […]
Eldar Images Leaked
Another imminent release another batch of leaked photos. Below we have the rumoured Wraith Knight as well as a glimpse at the Codex art. The eagle eyed amongst you will also notice the Iyanden Codex Supplement which pretty much tells you what you’ll have to do if you had a specific craftworld in mind. Prepare […]
Forge World Crisis Suits – A Review
So regular readers will know that I rather took to the Tau Empire Codex. Followers on Twitter will know that I decided to collect a small 1,000 point force to use as allies with my Ultramarines. Quite what 9,000 points of Ultramarines, including the full first company needs from 1,000 points of Tau I don’t know but […]
Tomb Raider – A Review
It’s been a wee while since I looked at a video game and as I was given Tomb Raider by my lovely wife for my birthday earlier in the month I figured it would be a good opportunity. Back in the distant 20th Century in the year 1996 a game came out that changed video […]
Dark Potential Reclaimers – A Review
This is long overdue, but following on from my interview all those months ago with Matthew Glanfield, one the creative minds behind Dark Potential, I got to take a look at a set of the toys from Dark Potential. Specifically the Reclaimers. The Reclaimers, for those not in know, are the descendants of the crew aboard humanities […]
Fantascape – A Review
One of the foundations of The Shell Case is the search for companies that produce great toys and games that deserve attention from the wargaming community but may not be getting. One such company is called Fantascape. Fantascape produces a small but growing range of bases, accessories, and scenery and as the business was just […]
Changing of the Guard
You may have noticed a general lack of content coming from me in recent weeks. This is partly due to adventures in fatherhood and increased pressure at work knackering me out, but it’s primarily due to the aforementioned adventures impacting on my already limited free time to the extent that I don’t have time to [...]
A Reflection on Tau Fire Warriors
So once again the Tau march across gaming boards around the globe for the greater good of the galaxy. And, as ever, the Fire Caste are at its vanguard, blazing a path through those that will not join in the Tau’s noble undertaking. At its heart are the Fire Warriors, the front line troopers of every [...]
Dreadball Pelgar Mystics – A Review
The first my Dreadball Season 2 articles I take a look at the Pelgar Mystics, the Judwan team featured in the all new Dreadball: Season 2. The Judwans are the space hippies of the Dreadball universe boycotting the usual tactic of kicking in faces and instead try to out play their opponent. Had I read [...]
