On the next episode….

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Mike Lee from the Black Library is coming on the show this weekend.

Mike was co Author of the Malus Dark Blade series and author of the upcoming Nagash: The Sorceror book in the Time of Legend series.

I thought it would be a good idea to ask you the listener if there are any questions you would like to ask Mike.

Post your questions in the MWU forum thread and I will pick the best and most interesting ones.

The show will be recorded this weekend so get your input in ASAP

Ogre Army Diary Pt1

Saturday, May 24th, 2008

Ogre Bulls Concept

Hi guys, this is the start of hopefully many blabberingly boring blogs for my Podhammer Ogre Army. Firstly a huge thanks to everyone who contributed towards this project. A grand total of $450 was raised and there are just too many people to name, though I would like to take this opportunity to let you know how much it has lifted me back onto that horse. BUT your job isn’t over just yet; I would love constructive criticism along the way and for you to bear with me in times of nuttiness.

So while I wait for the remainder of the minis to arrive and post up images for what I have install for this army, I have included my thoughts that go through my head when deciding to start, prepare and construct an army. Hope you enjoy!!

Download issues

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008




I have only become aware today that people have been unable to download podhammer episodes direct from the site. I think it has something to do with some changes I made to WordPress and Podpress (the plugin that powers the podcast).

Never the less I have fixed the problem and I apologise for any inconveniance caused.

This is a new section of the website dedicated to websites and blogs from gamers and hobbyists from all over the world. Every week or two I will feature a new website and give a discussion on what its about. If you have seen a great army blog or would like your own site featured on the Podhammer site let me know. Don’t have a website but think you have a unique army that others might enjoy? Upload them to a Flickr or Photobucket account and I can link to them in the post.

..

SultanThe first of these community spotlights is Fragile Army Transport Bag . This site features armies painted by Justin Hill. His Araby themed Dogs of War army which was featured in the Ogres and DOW collectors guide as well as at the 2002 Baltimore GT. This army was one of the few araby armies that has inspired me to do an Araby themed army which I have started work on.

  • Check out the rest of the army here.


grailJustin has many armies featured on his site from both Fantasy and 40k. He has a flare for creating armies that aren’t just well painted but are unique. He is currently working on a Brettonian army for the Hong Kong GT. Check out the sweet Grail Reliquary!
