MTG Without Sleeves is Great

I've stumbled upon the Bar Cube again. The idea is to play Magic as god intended, without sleeves, wherever you want, in the best format: Cube 1 . So before I went off to the Brutal Assault festival, I spent too much time building my own quick bar cube, instead of packing my camping gear. I even went into my basement, to find my boxes of commons and uncommons. The initial goal was, to just find…

Brutal Assault 2026: 24 Hour Bender and Cool Bands

I'm here at Brutal Assault in Jaromer and it's pretty neat. After that 24 hour bender we had that started with getting up at 3:30 and then driving to Josevof Fortress, and ending with Witch Club Satan and walking back to our tents, I kinda fucked up my left foot. Walking hurts after 40.000 steps I guess. But I am still having a great time. Carpenter Brut yesterday was fucking sick. I never saw so…

First Nurgle Testmodel and Sculpting a Belly-Mouth

Finally painted my first test model for my little Nurgle project. Well test models usually are just the first model I paint in that scheme and I never paint a second one, but I think this scheme goes pretty hard, so there is no need for more test models. I'll just post the paint recipe here as well, so I find it somewhere. The scheme is pretty simple and I think I painted this guy in 1-2 hours I…

Scratching That Nurgle Itch and Getting Into Green Stuff

As you do as a normal Warhammer player, you sometimes fall into a hole of building an entirely new army. After a long time of being pretty content I have finally caved and started a new bigger project: Nurgle Daemons. Aesthetically I firmly fall inbetween two of the four chaos gods: Tzeentch and Nurgle. I love pink and blue horrors, and I love plaguebearers and nurglings. Both just have great…

Floor Naps Instead of Runner's High

I never was a really sporty person. Always preferred staying inside and playing video games to doing anything sporty. Only in my mid-20s I started doing sports at all, since I really did put on some weight after school and I really didn't feel good about it. Started bouldering, because all my friends did it, and that was really rough in the beginning. But between that and getting a little into…

Battle Report: Orks vs Death Guard (One Page Rules)

Warboss Fastklaw's Speedwaaagh! has tracked down more of the "Go Fasta Goop" in the remains of an old Prometheum refinery. Problem was, that the heretical marines of the 14th Legion, the Death Guard, are standing in their way to stake a claim on the speed juice for their Trukks. Will the Orks loot the fuel, or will Nurgles apostles further grow the Grandfathers garden of wonders? After playing…

OPR Is the Best Casual Tabletop Wargame (for Me)

I'm gonna be honest. I love my slightly more crunchy Age of Sigmar. But sometimes I really want to give my Space Orks a spin. Does that mean I want to read up on how to play the newest edition of 40k? Not really. I just want to put those Boyz into my Trukks and send 'em towards my friends' Death Guard, while some Lootaz are trying to hit anything on the board. Getting that feeling doesn't need…

WIP: Old School Battlewagon

Now after I have complained about people printing too many silly garbage toys, I will commence writing about printing and painting silly garbage toys. They are okay for me to print because I say so. Not because I am a hypocrite or anything else. I came across the Retro Battle Truck on MyMiniFactory, a recreation of the old Armorcast Ork Battlewagon, by Doctor Spork and I just had to buy and print…

3D Printing Maximalist Culture Is Weird

3D printing is the Asbestos of our generation. I will always say that if someone asks me if they should buy a 3D printer. It's strange how I get asked if people should buy themselves a 3D printer more and more often. I see the appeal. You can print your own parts for just whatever you might need. Most of the time i would like to tell them to just don't. Most people don't need it. I certainly don't…

Vienna Summer Major 2026 with Sons of Behemat: How I Stopped Worrying and Started Throwing Rocks

Vienna Summer Major is over and I had a blast at my first GT sith the new General's Handbook. The GT was organized by the Wiener Würfel Wappler and Marcus Miniatures who did a great job running the event and stocking the player lounge with drinks and snacks. The Tournament was at the Spielefest in Vienna, so there was lots of cool stuff to check out between the games. Luckily I played Sons of…
