Brotherhood of Steel T60 power armour

 At Salute 2026 I bought the Brotherhood of Steel Core Box for the Fallout Factions game from Modhious.

It contains parts for eight miniatures, two are T60 power armour, the others lightly armoured (or unarmoured). There are a range of options for each figure - it is worth checking what load out you want for the game before you start building them, though there is a starter list.

The box contains an instruction and faction booklet (also available to down load).

There is at least one part number mistake - 153 is 158 in the T60 instructions.

There are two different sprues, a set of bases (6x30mm and 2x 40mm) and the instruction booklet.

The first figure built and painted is a Brotherhood Knight in T60 power armour.

It is made up a very large number of parts, but it went together okay.

The figure was undercoated with a slightly dodgy coloured Citadel Mechanicum Grey (which does not match past or current acrylics from Citadel).

The base is Humbrol Dark Earth acrylic (mark 2 variety).

The armour was basecoated with Vallejo Black Grey drybrushed with Vallejo London Grey then a lighter drybrush with Army Painter Stone Golem.

the laser rifle was orriginal Citadel Deathworld Forrest then Citadel Snot Womble green with a drybrush of Citadel Nurling Green.

Lenses are Citadel Mephiston Red.

The armour was washed with Citadel Nuln Oil, the rifle with Citadel Athonian Camoshade.

The base was drybrushed with Citadel Tyrant Skull and then washed with Citadel Agrax Earthshade. Once dry it was drybrushed lightly with Citadel Termintus Stone.

The Traveller Book

 I think this was the first roleplaying book I bought

I wish they were still that price.

Oathmark Second Edition

 So back in 2020 just as we came out from the first round of quarantine, Osprey Games released the new Fantasy Mass Battle game Oathmark.

Just over six years later, the new edition has been released.

Review to follow.

X19A2 Hard Suits

 

Wargames Atlantic have released three hard plastic kits for the Golden Dragon Marcher: Empires At War game. The game appears to be a Weird War 2 variant, though the participants are currently unclear. The three kits are all for American forces.

The only one that interested me is the X19A2 Badger hard suit.

The kit (for four suits) is in a standard sized box.

There are four sprues (each sprue building one hard suit) and one large base sprue.

There is a set of full colour decals included.

There are no instructions included, but there are some on the Wargames Atlantic site here.

Looking at the instructions, they are quite complicated, this does allow the individual suits to be posed, but they are not in general articulated.

Anvil Industries Medium Automata

 

These are a ranger of multipart print on demand figures.

Blood on the Sands: Gladiators finished

 Well, except for the shields.

The other owner figure.

Colour code for your convenience.

And the opposition.

Warriors of Athena: Minotaur

North Star Minotaur for Warriors of Athena 

The figure was undercoated with Citadel Zandri Dust spray.

Body is Citadel Dryad Bark, horns are Army Painter Skeleton Bone.

There are some Gamers Grass Gnarled Branches on the base.
