  1. You can't see it. But my eyes are rolling.
  2. Happy Friday Wyrdos! For today's preview we are bringing you one of the more....grotesque of the Cult's forces. These portals are a very potent force in what they allow your army to do. Take a look! The most insidious byproduct of the Burning Man’s presence may not be the cult that sprang up around it but rather the ease in which new portals are created. While most portals lead through to Malifaux, some don’t make it quite far enough. They connect to somewhere in between, a place of chaos and magic. Many of these portals slowly transform from a gateway into a sentient creature, an abomination of magic fueled by the space between spaces. These Stalking Portals seem to have some sort of odd intelligence and provide great support to the cultists that worship the Burning Man. On the table, Stalking Portals are iconic Cult support pieces. The ability to function as moving teleporters allows them to ensure that their forces get where they need to be as quickly as possible. They're also quite good at stripping Reinforcement Tokens away from enemy units. I now brace myself for the endless deluge of puns.
  3. Email confirmation is always a good sign!
  4. Happy Friday Wyrdos! Enjoy this Friday preview, as it's probably the only time you'll see the Sharpshooter before he sees you! This adjunct for the King's Empire has lots of cool stuff going on. Take a look. Many units in the King's Empire have begun bringing a specialist into battle: a Sharpshooter. Equipped with long rifles, these Sharpshooters can often aid their unit in myriad ways. Most commonly, these skilled shooters serve as inspiration for the rest of their unit to go above and beyond for King and country. On the tabletop, Sharpshooters improve their unit's accuracy and gain an extra Action, making them a solid addition to any King's Empire infantry unit.
  5. I tried to get them to name it the 50mm Kai Bridge but I guess I flipped the Black Joker on my skill...
  6. I've painted some just to have something different to paint that isn't full-fledged massive terrain.
  7. Hey Wyrdos! It's time for yet another Monday Preview and we have a pretty cool one. We continue our line of Wyrdscape base inserts, adding these cool new Asian Ruins into the line! You can see there are a total 10 awesome new base inserts to spice up your crew!
  8. Happy Friday Wyrdos! Today we have a preview of a pretty awesome Dual Faction Commander, Horomontangi. Let's take a look! Horomatangi is an ancient, powerful creature from Malifaux. It arrived on Earth in the mid-sixteenth century and immediately started terrorizing the Maori people. It was a mighty spellcaster in Malifaux, and it was the ruthless overlord of a long string of half-sunken islands. It used sheer power to command the mewling members of the Gibbering Hordes that were unlucky enough to live in its domain. Unfortunately for Horomatangi, all of this was lost when it arrived on Earth. For years it tried to reclaim some semblance of power by attacking the locals of New Zealand, but to no avail. Eventually, it was defeated by the Ngaatoro sisters and fell into a deep sleep in a crevice of the ocean. The arrival of the Burning Man on Earth brought with it an infusion of magic that woke the mighty Horomatangi from hundreds of years of sleep. It is now regaining some of its old power and reclaiming dominion over the Hordes, and it has pledged its service to the Burning Man in the hopes of replenishing its atrophied magical power. On the table, Horomatangi can serve either the Cult of the Burning Man or the Gibbering Hordes. Unlike most Commanders, Horomatangi is a Titan and has less Scrip to hire its forces. Horomatangi makes up for this deficiency with its incredible power. Its high Armor of 12, which increases to an amazing 13 in Glory, makes this ancient beast incredibly difficult to hurt. Defense is not Horomatangi's specialty, however: violence is. It is dangerous either in melee or at range, and its passive Cloud of Steam Ability ensures that it is dangerous for enemies to even be in proximity to Horomatangi. The Bellow of Command Action is a potent Morale Action that can provide a big bonus to allies or a big penalty to enemies. Alternatively, Horomatangi might choose to simply lay waste to its foes with an endless assault generated by its Mighty Willpower Action.
  9. We are so glad you love them! Somehow we have 78 of them now! And a 79th looms on the horizon. What adventures will it bring?!?
  10. Excuse me sir. All puppers are good puppers.
  11. Happy Monday Wyrdos! It took me a while to get into the office today as there were webs everywhere. Something tells me this mysterious Monday preview may have had something to do with it. Speculate away!
  12. Happy Friday Wyrdos! We continue to look at the units for the Other Side. Today we have the Marauder from Abyssinia. Check it out! Most Abyssinian Marauders are used to get behind enemy battle forces, where they can cripple supply lines and debilitate their reinforcement abilities. Sometimes, however, they are brought onto the battlefield itself. These two-seater motorcycles move quickly, with one soldier driving the motorcycle while the other focuses on manning the heavy machine gun. The Marauder can fulfill different roles on the battlefield as needed, whether that might be quickly securing objectives or attacking exposed flankers. Unfortunately, Marauders need to remain light so as to not compromise their extreme speed, so their defenses are somewhat lacking. On the tabletop, Marauders have nearly unrivaled speed. They are capable of easily going 27" on a turn, and, if they are in Glory, they can follow it up with a Heavy Machine Gun Action that could move it even further. Clever use of the Afterburners will help get a Marauder to Glory for maximum effectiveness.

  14. Fat with love and appreciation... ... ... That sounded better in my head.
  15. Huh. Odd. I'll fix it! Edit: It is now fixed.
  16. Did you know sometimes we make a magazine? And we have done it 35 times! Go grab Chronicles #35. Read it. Look at the pretty pictures. Have a grand old time! http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/239516/Wyrd-Chronicles--Ezine--Issue-35
  17. Happy Monday Wyrdos! Today our Monday Preview is of the upcoming Darkness Comes Rattling expansion, War of the Spirits. We are taking a look at two new characters you will get to play as, Janbaaj and Amenset. Let's learn a little about them! Janbaaj, an exile who has wandered Tallil looking for answers, has finally found them in the camaraderie of his newly found companions. He utilizes the Corruption Skill, honing in on his inner darkness as a tool to defeat the challenges that face him. Amenset has seen through the veil that separates the realm of the spirits and Tallil and knows that something must be done before both worlds are lost. Unlike all of the other Warriors in the game, Amenset is without a default Skill; instead, she may choose her Skill at the beginning of each day, making her an incredibly flexible character that fits into any party.
  18. But 7th...there is nothing there? *bum bum BUM*
  19. Happy Friday Wyrdos! We continue that wonderful trend of taking a peek at some of the models of The Other Side. Today we are revealing the Raving Madman. Enjoy! Raving Madmen have a deep connection to the Burning Man. These individuals have not been infused with the Burning Man's magic, but they remain true believers in Ephraim Wade's teachings. Their minds have twisted around a sort of chaotic logic, and they willingly follow the Burning Man's forces into battle. Their words have an insidious effect which turns the mind of even the most stalwart of opposition to their teachings. On the table, Raving Madmen can prevent opponents from using the Shaken Tokens that the Cult intends to use to flip to Glory. Over time, they become unhinged enough to that their insanity can become a significant threat.
