Secret Weapon Miniatures announced they will be closing back in August 2021. Now we have more details. It seems Trolltrader/TT Combat (TTC) has claimed claimed IP on their HD Bases Kickstarter Campaign, making it impossible for them to get the project sent out. SWM say the claims are false. This has caused the company to […]

In this episode, I revisit the apparent demise of Guild Ball. No, really, it's dead. But only... kind of dead? Stuff happened. I talk about it.   Also, Secret Weapon Miniatures is dead. Probably. Again, kind of. I talk about that.   And Asmodee. Definitely not dead, but responsible for other things maybe kind of dying. But not really. Let's talk about that!

The full team are here again this fortnight with another episode, sadly we're covering the closure of Secret Weapon Miniatures, the heart breaking news surrounding Star Wars Armada, a confusing release by Games Workshop and much much more. In Aiming for the Indy we cover Delta One Zero by Bonza Games In GameTalk we cover the Command of the Scourge in Dropzone Commander.

Hail Mighty Listeners! And welcome to our first Virtual Wargames Convention. During the COVID-19 pandemic many events and conventions will close. Traders and friendly local gaming stores often rely on these events for many things; To promote their product, fund development of new ones, keep stores open on the highstreet etc. We have been trying to think of a way we can help them out and came up with the virtual wargaming convention Every day we have been promoting businesses that would have been an exhibitor at a local or national convention or event. We will also promote as many local venues as me can, spreading out as far as we can from the southwest. This episode is a special podcasts where we will explore all the exhibitors that would have been at Adepticon 2020 so that people can sit down and listen along while they explore what would have been on offer. Follow along with the #vitualwarcon hashtag to keep up All the best, we hope you enjoy it Dan and Ben (The 2Ps)   TIMESTAMPS 00:02:58 - PART 1 00:31:33 - PART 2 00:51:12 - PART 3 01:10:39 - PART 4 01:27:38 -

We talk news, many games as we delayed again unfortunately as we switched recording programs (again...boo!) so here's our Blood Angels special with James Swallow, Andy Smillie, Guy Haley, Darius Hinks (text interview), and Paul Murphy from FtN podcast.   Check out all BL books at www.blacklibrary.com ! Darius Hinks interview to be posted on www.combatphase.com soon. Who are the Blood Angels (BA) to you? [This will include everything from 9th Legion 30K to all successor chapters in 40K so answer what you like, no need to cover everything]   I've always loved those duality/repression kind of themes you get in gothic literature and I think that's what makes the Blood Angels so interesting. They're like Dracula crossed with Dr Jekyll – remote, cerebral, aesthetes, bottling up a wild, terrifying, id that they can't (maybe don't want?) to escape.They're pretty messed up, basically.   What do you think the appeal of the BA is for the fanbase?   I think it's that dichotomy that makes them so appealing. They have such a long, complicated history. The Blood Angels revere Sanguinius, of course, but they also know that he's the source of their great flaw. So how can they best be like him? The Blood Angels are tormented but determined at the same time and I think that's a great springboard for fiction.     Talk about Mephiston as a character first. What singles him out as a subject?   To my mind, Hades Hive didn't free Mephiston of all his dangerous Blood Angels duality, it threw fuel onto the fire. I think of him having a dual consciousness – a cool, scholarly side that barely recalls/understands his wild, warp-fuelled excesses in battle (the Mr Hyde part of him). The scholarly side of him needs to understand and harness the wild side, or he'll become a force for destruction rather than good. He's hoping to be a good guy, and working hard to achieve that goal, but it could go either way.   What happens in your novel (avoid major spoilers)?   I had a lot of fun exploring Mephiston's corner of the Blood Angels' fortress monastery on Baal. A lot of this stuff hasn't been written about in much detail before and I was lucky enough to work with the (much cleverer than me) Guy Haley. We bounced a few ideas around and, while he thought about Baal and the Arx Angelicum in a wider sense, I delved into the darkest recesses of the Librarium. It's not all crypts and sacred vaults though – Mephiston and a strike force of Blood Angels get drawn into an internecine bloodbath on a daemon-infested Shrine World and fun times are had by all.   Given the exciting advancement of the narrative where do you see Mephiston and the BA in general in the Gathering Storm and what aspects might we hope to see going into 8th edition and beyond, beyond just the Shield of Baal (Tyranids)?   If Hades Hive threw fire on Mephiston's split personality, the Cicatrix Maledictum has added even more fuel to the flames. Mephiston's got half a foot in the Warp anyway, so a bloody great tear in reality is going magnify things to an insane level. I'm writing more about Mephiston and it's exciting ramping his problems up to even more extreme levels. Blood of Sanguinius is set before the events of the Gathering Storm, but the next book is set after. If Mephiston can harness this influx of new warp energy he could turn the tide of the war and prove to the rest of his Chapter that they are worthy, that they can defeat their ancient curse and make their long dead daddy proud, but if Mephiston is consumed by the Warp, or if he's wrong about source of his powers, he could be the final nail in their (admittedly quite fancy) coffin.   How was it for you writing a 40K novel? You've contributed to Architect of Fate and several amazing Fantasy and AoS books. What stories would you like to tell?   It's always daunting writing Warhammer fiction because you know how much love there is for these characters and what strong opinions people have about how they should be portrayed, but... My favourite part of 40K is the weird stuff that spews from John Blanche's head: the strange, surreal, twisted, pseudo religious, mythical, gothic, claustrophobic, bloody creepiness of 40K and, writing about a Librarian, specifically Mephiston, was a great excuse to delve into that stuff. It was loads of fun. I'd like to push the horror even further in the next one though. If there was ever a bit of 40K that should be scary to read about, it's this. I'd like to write something that keeps me awake at night.   Did you have any favorite parts of Mephiston? I always enjoy writing messed-up Chaos daemon scenes, and I managed to squeeze some of that in here. There is a daemon-birth scene that properly freaked me out as a wrote it, so I was particularly pleased with that. Does that sound weird? Am I weird? Why are those people pointing at me and whispering?   You brought your unique, dark take on demons and alien entities from Fantasy into Mephiston. How did you envision the opening enemies (the first battle)? I'm really freaked out by those electron microscope images of dust mites. They're so bloody horrific and alien. I suppose I was thinking of them. Now I'm thinking about them again. Do they live in eyebrows? I'm getting itchy.   We must give a nod to your other BL books. Sigvald won me over and I was so pleased to see your name on the Orion Trilogy. Any fun moments in character development in the World That Was? In your AoS work?   Sigvald was such a gift – a thrill-seeking hedonist in such a bonkers a setting. I kind of feel like I should have paid BL for the fun of writing that book. (Don't tell them though.) My AoS novel was great fun too. At the time of writing, nothing was really pinned down about the Stormcast Eternals or the new Warhammer setting, so I had a lot of leeway to invent stuff. I'd like to do more stuff in the Mortal Realms at some point.   Do you have anything coming up we can know about and/or can we expect to read more of your work? (say what you're allowed, they understand by now how this works) I'm working on more Mephiston and I think he'll keep me busy for a while. If the first book does well and BL like the idea, I'd like to do quite a few books about him. Other than that, I'll just be busy trying to get all these microscopic insects of my skin. I wonder if you can buy a cream for that?   time stamp 00:00 - 00:32 - Intro 00:32 - 01:20 - James Swallow 01:20 - 01:36 - Andy Smillie 01:36 - 01:55 - Guy Haley 01:55 - 02:20 - Paul Murphy   Ep 152 Women in Wargaming James Swallow jamesswallow.blogspot.co.uk @jamesswallow Andy Smillie @andysmillie Guy Haley @guyhaley Paul Murphy @warmaster_tpm www.forgethenarrative.net     Combat Phase aims to bring excellent resources  to our listeners around the world.

Interview with MR. JUSTIN of SECRET WEAPON MINIATURES

Normally we wouldn't release an episode this long, but this massive 5+ hour episode is bittersweet for us here as it is indeed the final episode of The Independent Characters. We want to thank every single one of you for listening to us over the last few years. It has been an incredible journey and we have enjoyed it tremendously. 127 may be a bit self indulgent as we check in with many of the guests that we have had on the show and find out where they are heading. We tried not to be too repetitive, but some of it cannot be helped when you conduct as many interviews as we have here. We also add a few segments for our final episode that we hope you enjoy. Thank you once again for listening, providing feedback, and generally being the best friends we could have ever asked for. Good gaming! I would also like to just take a moment to thank all of our sponsors over the years. KR Multicase, Secret Weapon Miniatures, Smells like Wargaming, and Wargamma. We made a promise not to advertise products that we wouldn't use ourselves - and these guys provide some of the best on the market. Please do go check them out and at least give them a look, as the show would not have been possible without their support. Farewell!

Miniature Hobby Business Panel - Insider Perspectives Ronnie Renton - CEO of Mantic Games, Justin McCoy - President of Secret Weapon Miniatures and Iron Box Games, and Victoria Lamb of Victoria Lamb Miniatures, come together to field your questions on the miniature industry in this informal Q&A panel.These companies represent three different perspectives on the miniature market -- and can provide insight whether you're simply curious about the inner workings of the industry, or looking to get into the business yourself.   This is Part 1 of a 4 part recording of this panel.  If you found the panel to be of interest please reach out to Info@adepticon.org and let us know you would like to see more panels in the future.

Adepticon may be officially wrapped up and packed up for the 2014 season, Adepticon Talks isn't ready to go quietly.  We took time out of the convention to grab a handful of Vendors to share what cool things they hahd brought to the convention.    We open up with John Cadice, and Ross Thompson of Soda Pop/Ninja Division.  The guys had brought the demo set up for Relic Knights, the soon to be released Anime inpired game of amazing awesomeness!  As well as the pre-production models from the highly successful Super Dungeon Explore Kickstarter.  Then we turn to the man behind Secret Weapon Miniatures, and the brains behind Adepticons first industry panel, Mr Justin McCoy. 

Episode 94 of The Independent Characters takes a hard look at Commission Painting. Whether you are thinking of having a model or army painted by a commission painter or painting service, or whether you think you have the chops to become a commission painter yourself, we discuss the pitfalls you want to avoid as well as the benefits. To help us round out our conversation, we also have interviews with Branden from Smells Like Wargaming and Frankie from Frontline Gaming. These are two distinctively different approaches to Commission Painting services and we ask them about how they do business and what others should look for. As usual, we have our Workbench and Games Played segments where we delve a bit into Tyranids as well.  Next episode we promise to present you with a brand spanking new commercial for Secret Weapon Miniatures as well as Smells Like Wargaming. So finally people can stop teasing Carl about not having recently attended a class by Mr. Justin!
