Blog from the Sewers

I've already written about the DC UNIVERSE MINIATURE GAME from the Spanish company Knight Models , but recently I've been putting some more play time into its older sibling: The BATMAN MINIATURE GAME. Originally it was a rather clunky but tactical intense system. The 3rd edition threw a lot of things out but introduced a deck-building system that really helps making each faction feel distinct. And as you might have guessed, it is also very good for homebrewing other franchises into it.

Hi everybody. Let's hope this year will be better than the last, ey? Anyway, I decided to cut down on hobby purchases this year and concentrate on my backlog. And for that purpose I decided to write down every unbuild models I already own on a list and work it off bit by bit. 

Our small 40k group held the yearly APOCALYPSE game a few weeks ago and I wanted to share some pics.  In this game Abbaddon returned to the war-torn world of Vigilus to gain some of the remaining Black Stone. The danger was so great - and the rewards to enticing - that the Adeptus Mechanicus Titan Legions of Vigilus cooperated with a Necron Lord also eyeing the Warp-controlling resource for themselves.

I said I also wanted to use this blog to write some fluff for my tabletop games (altough fanfiction might be the better term in this case). The idea behind #GrimDarkVania was "what if vampires and skeletons but in the 41. millenium?", so from the start I had some basic ideas I wanted to put to paper.

Having a tabletop blog to document my current projects is a good idea, but it only really works if I keep updating the damn thing and not just post everything on Twitter. So here's a project I recently had a lot of fun with. Why only make one mutant shark when I can build two?

One of my favourite game systems from the last few years is the DC UNIVERSE MINIATURE GAME from Knight Models. It's a "beer & pretzels" tabletop game about superheroes duking it out with big punches and laser beams. But the reason I really like it, is that the system itself is flexible enough to write a lot of homebrew or house-rules. For example, bringing anime characters in to fight the Western superheroes.
