AAR- Kings of War Campaign Kickoff!
In an unsurprising development, It’s taken me a month to get around to putting up a brief overview of our first KoW campaign night.

Cheap Sprue Review: WGA Halfling Militia and a Classic Hobbits Roundup.
I recently discovered that McDougall Designs sells Wargames Atlantic (WGA) sprues separately. There are alot of Wargames Atlantic figures that interest me but I have no need for a whole box of 24-40 of them. So, I purchased a variety of single sprues and I’ll be reviewing them over time.

Test Of Honor Demos at Grognard Games
I had the pleasure of attending Grognard Games 3rd anniversary celebration, and ran some Test Of Honor games. I had never been to the store before. It’s a great shop.
