Review: Ramshackle Games Toy Car Scale 20/23mm Accessories

In the past few years table top games revolving around Mad Max style racing has been growing in popularity. Rule books from Osprey Games such as Gas Lands have had gamers raiding cupboards and buying Matchbox toy cars and decorating them in post apocalyptic death machines.

With this in mind Ramshackle Games have made some perfect accessories to help you make your racing machines look the part with their 20/23mm Toy Car Scale Range.

Age OF Sigmar: Storm Strike Starter Set

So I was on Ebay (as you do) and saw this box for Age of Sigmar Storm strike. It's one of the starter sets for Age Of Sigmar.
 One thing Games Workshop has done over the past couple of years is to produce 3 differnt starter sets at 3 differnt price points for both AOS and Warhammer 40k so you don't have to invest loads on money into a huge ox set to try the game.

This box set is priced around £25 and for what you get inside its great (as you will see) the main reason I bought this was for the Nighthaunt miniatures as I want them for a warband in War Cry, I already have some chainrasps from my Shadespire set so adding these would get me a warband.

So lets take a look inside.

Age Of Sigmar Heard Stone and Update on Raptoryx Paint Scheme

The last few weeks have been quite on the hobby front due to life stuff but before all that I got to work and finished one of the new AOS terrain pieces called the Heardstone . 

This is for the new Beastman for AOS even though I don't play AOS  A) I though it looked cool to paint and B) I thought it would work well a terrain pice for War Cry maybe for the Untamed Beasts.
