The Traveller - part 1


I've been invited to a "grimdark / 40k adjacent" gaming event in Manchester, in February, called The Traveller.

Sam (Cupboard_of_shame) is organising it and it looks like there are about 18 people going, some are even flying in from the US.

It's set across backwater-planets in a forgotten corner of the 40k universe, but it's going to be using OPR Space Quest rules and custom / homebrew factions) for a hybrid roleplaying and wargaming experience.

It's the closest I've come to having any interest in 40k, since 2nd edition Kill Team completely evaporated my last grimdark gaming avenue.

I already have my little warband built and painted so, at Sam's request, I'm making some tarot cards for it.

The Cleavermaw




I started building the Cleavermaw in March 2020! Although I lost momentum on the project I kept coming back to work on it for short periods and I eventually completed the build in July 2022

For some reason the hyperfocus never really seemed to kick-in and I struggled to get it over the finish line. But I found some juice for it and I'm calling it done now.

I was planning to use it as a Maw-Krusha (and I still might!) as it's on the same sized base - the massive 160mm round.

But with the recent news about Path to Glory: Blighted Wilds including a system to create warscrolls for custom faction terrain, I might try them at some point.
