As I publish this, we are at the Glasgow 2024 WorldCon, the first UK WorldCon in a decade and the first WorldCon for Megan and Paul.

We headed up to Glasgow on Wednesday morning, taking both ours and Pauls BEVs, so transport was cheap as chips!

After a brief stop at Lockerbie services to charge we arrived around about lunchtime in Glasgow

We found Warhammer, and Bird and Blend, had a fairly disappointing bagel for lunch

After that we headed over to our AirBnB which is what seems to be the old Servants Quarters of a big house!

I took a bit of time to build something for my #HobbyStreak, in this case some ETB Aggressors that will join the Dark Angels

We went food shopping, had chilli then went to bed!

The Eclipsing War

On Sunday myself and Graham ran the first Edge of Empire single day event in a long while, The Eclipsing War.

The game was played over 3 missions,, and we used a set of Stratagems and a set of Warlord Fatality tables, one for infantry and one for vehicles.

Plus some custom game stratagems.

The setup was actually done for us on arrival, cause the players and Phil are super awesome!

And we just got into it with an amazing set of games, which came down to a single point tipping it in the favour of the traitors, even though Mission 1 was kind of biased in favour of the traitors.

After that we judged the armies for the best army award, a choice that is based not only on painting, but on theme and composition, which was won by this Ultramarines army from Michael Weatherstone

Game 2 followed which was a draw, so the Loyalists could now achieve a draw overall

The 3rd and last game though, saw a Traitor win for them to seal a victory!

Finally we have out the prizes, the few we had and went home

Think it went well, everyone seemed to enjoy it and we are being asked to run another one soon

What I Am Spending

Forgot to list some video games I had bought recently!

It was also Humble Choice so I got from that

And I bought the Board Game Night Humble Bundle that got me:-

I also picked up Stormbringer 77 this morning, two copies, one to make a Knight-Draconis and another for the Stormdrake Guard to join the one from last week.

And a new painting handle, cause yeah, I need all the handles, well I want to have 21, so I can do a big unit of 20 plus a HQ
