MONTHLY MINIATURES: Lizardlings of the Mire - Artisan Guild

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

At the beginning of each month, where we can, if there are independent miniatures that have caught out eye we feel that we have to mention.  

The first for this month is Andrea Taradella's Artisans Guild and their interesting Lizardlings of the Mire, whilst there's only a few we really want, there's a good few that you can use to either build proxy miniatures for TTRPG's or for your tabletop Wargames, that will allow you to bring unique items to the gamers.

(Our personal favourites this time are:

Razor Wyvern Riders (with the skull helmet, and you can get the Razor Wyvern's seperate if you want some fab monsters)

Khazi Me'Vees Lizardman Assassin

Skeel and Drik - Beast Agitators

Falgor Bastion Wyvern (with Howdah)

Please enjoy their trailer and if you want to subscribe for the STL's please go here.  If you don't own a 3d printer, there are people out there that subscribe as merchants where you can pick them up on various sites.  Do not watch this trailer if you are at work as there is one mini that is Not Safe For Work and whilst its not down as a Pin-Up this month (Its Liska, Egg Huntress), the mini itself is a bit risque.

We hope you've enjoyed this sneaky peak at some of their fab mini's and hope that one or two have inspired you for your own games.

Kind Regards

NEWS: Limited Time Online Purchase for Event Exclusive Miniatures - Steamforged Games: Warmachine

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

If like us you were unable to make UKGE and get to visit Steamforged Games at their Warmachine booth, you still have the chance (until tomorrow, 1st June 2026) to order their exclusive event miniatures here.

Major Abraham Stormcraw:

After the thunderous barrage subsides, a rhythmic clacking stirs the dissipating smoke. A great figure parts the haze, mist eddying around heavy steps, stone chits swaying from his weapon in a percussive rattle — each marking years, deeds, and final breaths of slain enemies. 

You hold in your hands an exclusive variant of Major Abraham Stormcraw, mighty chieftain and believer in the old ways, to collect, paint, and deploy at the head of your Southern Kriels Kithguard army. 

Stormcraw fuses the rage of his ancestors with the technology of his enemies to remove trespassers and relieve them of their heads. Use this model in place of Stormcraw’s regular sculpt when fielding your Kithguard force. 

Extreme Strix:

A sentry to the sacred grounds deep within the forbidden Wood, Strix has dwelt in the darkness for centuries. Serving Zevanna in her absence, this ancient guardian has watched over the Children of Agha and their hidden groves since the witch first stole away her daughter.

This exclusive convention variant depicts Strix at full stretch with wings wide open, talons splayed, and their predatory weight coiled to strike from above. Strix is adorned in the plate of the wardens armour, tying the beast directly to the Khadoran army it protects. It’s a dramatic, ready-to-pounce pose that captures Strix as the unseen terror of the treeline.

Keen senses and foresight enhanced by Zevanna’s magics empower Strix to act swiftly and react faster than any intruder. When Bohdan journeyed across the lands, the Old Witch sent several guardian protectors with him, each sworn to safeguard his fate. Since then, Strix has accompanied valued warlocks into battle to shape their destiny and keep their enemies at bay.

Strix is playable in Khador Old Umbrey.

And finally Vikul the Wolf (who is UKGE's Exclusive):

Kapitan Zahara Vilkul has worn many mantles across her storied service to the Motherland, but none more feared than the guise she adopts in the wilds of Old Umbrey.

Known as Vilkul the Wolf, this variant depicts the legendary warcaster as an agent of the ancient province, clad in heirloom Umbrean armour and crowned with the pelt of a great forest predator.

 It captures the ruthless precision and predatory patience she is known for when the hunt begins.

Although this version of Vilkul embodies her ties to Old Umbrey, she remains fully playable in both Khador Old Umbrey and Khador Winter Korps, ready to lead in whichever theatre of war the Motherland demands.

May you all continue to strive in the Iron Kingdoms to bring victory to your faction.

All the best,

ThunderMouser

NEWS ROUND UP: TTRPG, Wargame and Funding Campaign News - Various

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks,

Whilst we wouldn't normally have more than one round up post during a week, we were wanting to do this so we could leave our Convention UKGE post available for the whole weekend so that you can find the blogs friends at the event and get to pick up some pretty sweet gear for your home.

So here we go with the last couple of days news for you:

Archvillain Games latest update (number 20) has done a deeper dive into the 3 books of the world of Death & Beyond.

The Gravelords are not just monsters. They are rulers of broken realms, tyrants of undeath, and the heart of a much larger dark fantasy universe.

BeforeArchvillain Encounters, there was Erevan’s Guide to Death & Beyond: Archvillains first Kickstarter campaign and one of the biggest creative worlds that they'd ever built which during the current Encounters Gamefound Campaign (which has 12 days left to run currently.) readers can add the books that started it all, with special campaign offers and discounted add-on options.  For more information please go here.

Dwarven Forge's Gamefound campaign, Caverns Reforged, is a week in, and they've just crossed $400k and are currently over halfway for the final stretch goal where you'll be unlocking Crystal Caverns in Ice paint for the first time!   For more info check the links in the article...

Crippled God Foundry have just announced the alpha rules for their forthcoming Dungeon Crawling Game The Dread Torch.  

Their Goals are: 

This early version currently includes:

⚔️ Fast tactical combat system

🃏 Event, Dark Event & Exploration card systems

🎲 Solo & cooperative play modes

🧙 Multiple hero classes and abilities

👹 Monsters, relics, equipment & consumables

🔥 Dungeon Mood cards to set the tone of the game

🏆 Training and progression systems

To download the rules so you can provide them with feedback please go here.

 

In the latest update from Steamforged Games, we've a few bits of news to talk about so lets start at the top and work our way through:

First off, Warmachine is getting a Mid-Year update after they felt that some tweaking was needed to keep the game fun and balanced for all.  With the changes in January which presented players with better gameplay, less lethality which in my opinion allowed for more push and shove rather than a one sided massacre and allowed you to really enjoy your mini's as they fought for supremacy.

June also see's the release of their monthly STL's which brings cursed fellblades, volatile rocket crews, wandering swordsmen, and enough shattered ruins to drag your tabletops straight into the wastelands of Immoren.  For more information go here.

And of course with the bright news of more fresh mini's, we have to remember that this month minicrate figure will disappear.  So if you still want Gravedigger Variant Caine, get in quickly.  From the 28th May Ghost Shaper, a haunting alternative sculpt for the Void Shaper of Dusk House Kallyss will be the key figure.

Please also remember you can catch up with Warmachine at the UKGE 2026 which our post from the 29th May will be mentioning where to find them amongst other exhibitors.

Dark Fantastic Mills have asked us to let you know about two of their updates today, firstly if you haven't yet signed up to the Horizon Zero Sci-Fi Terrain Kickstarter Campaign, its literally days short of closing.  So get in quickly.  And secondly that they've been hard at work on the Cog Fort design work to add an optional Deck Bombard and a Flame Cannon also joins the regular cannon as well as Volley Gun.  Of course because this is the first week, it does have a discount on it, so go here to get it from DFM's own Shop.

Finally before we head out, we want to wish all who are attending various Conventions this year a ton of fun and many delightful purchases but always remember to take personal safety seriously, make sure someone knows where you are going, when you're expected there and a return time.  As well as having emergency contacts should the worse happen. We hope it doesn't but it does pay to be well prepared and whilst we know that the UK weather forecast is currently that we'll be facing lower temps over this weekend, please remember to keep hydrated and fed.  Its easy to miss a meal or two with all the excitement but the last thing you want is to have your fun ruined because you're not well.

Other than that we just want to say, have a great time and please let us know all about the stars of the show, who made it for you, who you recommend and if you see some games that grab your interest please let us know so we can try and get all the latest news for you.

Once again, we wanted to thank Ramona, the designer of the beautiful page break we've been using.  You can follow her here on Bluesky and enjoy many of her art pieces or here is her website where you can also request commissions.

GAMEFOUND CAMPAIGN UPDATE: Duskhollow and Addressing Port Haven Worries - Archon Studio

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks, 

Archon Studio's have put out a brand new update on their forthcoming Gamefound Campaign Duskhollow  and also addressed a number of concerns that people have had in regard to the fulfillment of PortHaven that a number of us are eagerly awaiting.  (Yes I bought it all too.) 

What they had to say in regard to this is:

"...we’re currently facing some delays in shipment due to the additional expansion of our business to better accommodate the current and every project in the future. Due to that, we had to take temporary measures and halt shipments.

However, production is looking fantastic, and everything is being made to our standards. Once we finalize the logistics, everything will be back to full speed with shipments. Of course, our absolute priority is Porthaven right now, to fairly treat our backers and deliver to those who put their trust in our products. Thank you for your continuous support! We don’t want anyone to feel neglected or left behind. We’re doing all that we can so that the shipping of Porthaven is in full swing before we launch this campaign! For the next couple of weeks, we’ll be monitoring the situation and based on that we’ll decide the launch date for this campaign. To sum it up, we will be slightly moving the start date of this campaign by a couple of weeks  (the DuskHollow Campaign.) We don’t want to give you an exact date just yet so as not to promise something we cannot keep, and we promise that once we can state it with full certainty, we will announce the start date immediately! We sincerely thank you for your patience."

Now as a member still awaiting the PortHaven set I applaud that they're still doing updates and have agreed to suspend the campaign for the next project until they get more of a handle on things, however they are also fulfilling the StarCraft campaign so I am a little worried that they might have a little too much on their plate at the moment.  I do think it will be sorted and for me, the regular communication is a good thing as we can all be kept up to date on what;s what.  

Now that we've addressed that elephant (or in perhaps Port Haven's case the Pirate ship) in the room, lets have a little sneaky peak at what other fab things they're going to be bringing to the table in the forthcoming DuskHollow Horror Project.

Now each of the various sets seems to utilise the tower that has been designed in various ways, whether that means you'll have to buy it multiple times if you want to utilise each one I'm not sure of if its going to get some sort of "skin" to help keep costs down.  So whether its:

Gothic Cathedral

Monastary

Halls of Suffering

Arcane Keep

Weaponsmiths Forge

Forbidden Laboratory

Abandoned Dungeon

Castle Inn

There are whole other walls and details that keep each one feeling individual.  I have written enquiring in regard to how this would work as its not explained in the article that has gone live from where we have all our information from so hopefully it will be in either a future update or will be something we can answer ourselves for you.

Finally, to help there are other cool and weirdly wonderful from the Were Chihuahua through to the equally fascinating Mutant Inventor, I'm sure that these inhabitants will add more to your worlds than you ever thought possible.  Prepare for imminent darkness and hold that lantern tightly.

Thank you,

ThunderMouser

NEWS UPDATE: ROUND UP OF MULTIPLE NEWS ARTICLES - Cast'n'Play, Cubicle Seven Games, Warmachine, Dwarven Forge
