This very weird and wonderful model of a Goblin Warboss on Gigantic Spider is from the Citadel Collectors Range and was on display at GamesDay 2007.

Warhammer Gate House
I am always impressed with the scenery that comes out from the Games Workshop Design Studio from the hands of such talented craftsman like Dave Andrews.
When such models are on display at GamesDay I do like to capture them with my camera and use the pictures for inspiration.
One such excellent model was this Warhammer Gate House which combined the Mighty Fortress and the Watchtower.
On display at GamesDay 2007.

Warhammer Fantasy Farm
This farm was part of a beautiful Warhammer Fantasy demonstration games which was displayed at GamesDay 2008 in the UK.
Very nicely painted and really works well together, made for an impressive table for gaming.
More pictures from the same game. More picture of terrain and scenery on my website.
Warhammer Fantasy Village
This was a beautiful Warhammer Fantasy demonstration games which was displayed at GamesDay 2008 in the UK.
Not sure of the forces involved, in the main because I was looking at the scenery.
There are various Games Workshop plastic kits on the table, such as the Manor House here.
Resin buildings from other maufacturers were also present, including this market place.
And this house.
Very nicely painted and really works well together, made for an impressive table for gaming.
Warhammer Chapel
I have undercoated my Warhammer Chapel.
As you can see the detail can still be seen through the black undercoat.
Next stage will be adding the basecoat.
Though designed for Warhammer Fantasy, I will be using this in the main for Warhammer 40,000.
See the full workbench feature on the Warhammer Chapel.
"ruin the surprise"
When I was at GamesDay I had a chat with the White Dwarf crew about future issues. They only had the October and November issues available to preview. The October issue was in fact on sale at GamesDay, though the November issue did have a picture of the Ork Battlewagon. I was told by the WD crew that the December issue wasn’t at GamesDay as that would “ruin the surprise”.
Now what was that “surprise”?
I wondered at the time if it was going to be the Ork Stompa, now I think looking at the Warhammer Fantasy Battle Tabletop Gaming blog was the “surprise” a plastic Lizardman Stegadon?
I don’t have the issue of White Dwarf to hand so I can’t check to see what else is in it, but it wouldn’t surprise me.
There may be a few ways I think I could use a plastic Stegadon in my Warhammer 40K games.

Dwarf Stronghold
One of the things I like about GamesDay is the fantastic demonstration and participation games
This beautifully made Dwarf Stronghold was part of a display game at GamesDay 2006.
Some wonderful modelling work had gone into it.
I liked the details and the features such as the armoured cannon turrets.

Heresy today, gone tomorrow
Back in the dark old days I use to play Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, and that was the original version, not the recent Black Library version, nor the Hogshead, but the original Games Workshop version.
It was a real fun game, well it was the way we played it. I always hoped that one day that we would see a Warhammer 40K Roleplay.
Well I didn’t realise it would be twenty two years!
I also didn’t realise that after releasing Dark Heresy, the 40K role-playing game, it would sell out.
Well bang goes my chance of getting my copy, I’ll wait for the reprint.
Ah.
No.
The Black Library are going to stop publishing it!
Huh!
