Doctor Who Series 4 Trailer
The trailer for the new series of Doctor Who has reached our screens.
From a gaming perspective the return of the Sontarans certainly offers a few opportunities.
I do have a Doctor Who section on the main website but there is not a lot there.

Epic Marines
Here are some of my Epic scale Space Marines hiding in the ruins of an Imperial city.
This also demonstrates the problems of basing models with grass and for them to then come into the city!
More Epic Marines in cities and on grassy terrain.

The Light of Other Days
My book choice this week is The Light of Other Days by Arthur C Clarke and Stephen Baxter.
With the death of Arthur C Clarke
This is one of my favourite books and I have read it quite a few times now.
‘Space is what keeps everything from being in the same place. Right?’ With these words Hiram Patterson, head of the giant media corporation OurWorld, launches the greatest communications revolution in history. With OurWorld’s development of wormhole technology, any point in space can be connected to any other, faster than the speed of light. Realtime television coverage is here: earthquakes and wars, murders and disasters can be watched, exactly as they occur, anywhere on the planet. Then WormCams are made to work across time as well as space. Humanity encounters itself in the light of other days. We witness the life of Jesus, go to the premiere of Hamlet, solve the enigmas that have baffled generations. Blood spilled centuries ago flows vividly once more – and no personal treachery or shame can be concealed. But when the world and everything in it becomes as transparent as glass and there are no more secrets, people find new ways to gain vengeance and commit crime, and Hiram Patterson finds new ways to keep his Machiavellian schemes secret.
The idea of the wormcams is really scary and the impact they have on the world is immense and explored in this novel.
You can get the book from Amazon.co.uk

Epic Vindicator
A Space Marine Vindicator rolls through the rubble on the streets of a ruined Imperial city.
This is the Epic 40,000 model which was released ten years ago, has it really been that long since that game was released – yes I realise Epic as a system is even older, but Epic 40,000 was the game I enjoyed most. I never played Space Marine, I just used the models and used the Dirtside system.
