Secret Santa - Unity B4 Heresy into 2021

Image
Hi everyone, Happy New Year! Wow what a year 2020 was. It was a difficult year for most and unsurprisingly all the members from the UB4H Team have been kept busy one way or another. Despite all of the struggle of 2020 we’ve been able to remain in good spirits. Some of the releases from Forgeworld to support the miniatures from Book Nine: Crusade have been great. As for us well GG has been ploughing along with his AT projects and painting, we even managed to get a cheeky between lockdown game of AT which was great fun and definitely good for morale.   King Fluff has been keeping the Horus Heresy train going by running weekly hobby hang outs on zoom and bringing the community together despite being separated all around the country.   Myself (Tylar) I’ve been continuing to attempt to 3D print the world and therefore I have some great stuff to show you coming up in posts soon. So what do we have for you as we begin the Tyler year? Well we have a Secret Santa we ran for a few of us in the c

King Fluff presents Events

Image
Hello again. Over the last 12 months you may likely have seen a lot of posts centered around forces and scenery I was preparing for the various events I had scheduled for the coming season of war. These events range from a narrative arc exploring the conflicts of the Cataclysm of Iron set during the Horus Heresy to the glory days of the Great Crusade as mankind explored the stars and ended the oppressive regimes of xenos tyrants. My aim was to lay on a smorgasbord of narratives and game systems to not only cater for existing players in their preferred system but to also allow players to experiment in other systems or story lines. Currently we have planned events that cover Age of Darkness, Age of Darkness with the Great Crusade expansion and a very special culmination event which draws the series of events to a close. These events have now been planned right through 2021 and 2022, providing opportunities for veterans of the Cataclysm of Iron and new recruits alike to fully immerse th

The Great Crusade - Enemies of The Emperor books

Image
  Well met fellow hobby enthusiasts. I’m very pleased that the initial plan for the Enemies of The Emperor Great Crusade era expansions for the Age of Darkness rules has been accomplished. Books 1 & 2 have been finished for a few years now but they were in need of a facelift and some small changes to bring them into line with the current rules from Forge World.  It was only upon these edits that I realised this project started way back with the Warhammer 40000 6th Ed rules - crazy to think the game has moved on 3 editions since and is now a completely different rule set. So these books are now firmly set in the grim darkness of the not-as-far-as-before future, which I think suits the armies within in terms of depth for narrative, non-competitive play. There are full army lists in the books and these have been written from a narrative perspective - aside from a few necessary additions all the units, their weapons, equipment and descriptions arise from the fantastic characterisations

Horus Heresy - Customising Miniatures: 3D Printed parts

Image
Hi Everyone!   Tylar here to talk to you about the realms of customising your Horus Heresy miniatures and using 3D printed parts as the secret to your success.  The post is a little later than planned mainly due to a new arrival in the Tylar household and a few adjustments in the forge 😉 Now before I get into the cool stuff I have a quick point I'd like to make.  We're not here to discuss the morale conundrum of 3D printing that’s a different debate and not one we wish to have here for the purposes of this post.  What I will be presenting are some of the things I've been able to print and how we as a blog intend to use them for our personal miniatures to enhance both the fluff factor and the aesthetically cool options they give us. The blog does not advocate the theft of IP nor does it encourage the sale of printed items for profit. So if we have you intrigued buckle in and be prepared for some really cool stuff. Having been in the hobby for over 30 years you
