Ground Zero Games makes these spiffy little figures they call “Sci-Fi Mercenaries” or somesuch, but they’re really space orcs.  We’re gonna go with the ‘black primer/white drybrush” method on these bad boys.  As my first 15mm figures, I’m not sure how well it’s going to work, but it’s hard...

Behold!  Cows…in…Spaaaaaace! These are Pendraken’s SF36, “Minotaur with Heavy Weapon”, but they look like space cows to me. The guy in the center has sergeant stripes and white hair, just in case I need a sarge for future rulesets. This one’s for the ladies? The figures tower over human...

As we trundle along, merrily throwing alien after alien at the hapless human intruders, it’s always nice to pause and add a little sumpin sumpin to the lists of the fantasy dungeon.  Why not some twin manticores to spice things up? DN58 – Manticore  These ugly mugs can be...
