Run a reasonably popular website dedicated to the awesome fantasy board game - Talisman: The Magical Quest Game. Big fan of 2000AD’s Rogue Trooper. Oh, and I now have a thing for Deathwatch in Warhammer 40,000! Other than that, not very interesting.

JKR explicitly said she considers anything Potter-related, even fan-made, endorsement of her politics. And every time you engage with this franchise, you signal to the industry that there's still money in it and they should keep pumping out content from full-cast audiobooks to book box partnerships.

Reading the news, it would be easy to believe that the Green Party has adopted a policy to expel its Jewish members, prevent them from attending synagogue or at the very least scrutinise their activities outside the party. *None of that has happened* 🧵

Here is the balance patch changes to the Sisters, Genestealer Cults, Deathwatch and Imperial Agents. Those last two are particularly messy in how their rules (don't) work

Nice! 👍

I must check to see if Boltgun is on PS5 now that my lad has one.

Also, has GW ever made a figure to represent Malum Caedo?

It seems like it was #TerribleComicTuesday just last week.

Woof.

No Devil Girl and Moon Dinosaur today. I hope y'all can get over the shock of disappointment.

Nay! Today you get the epic tale of the Fall of Klorg the Deathless, Warlock of Fnord!

It's pretty darned gripping, friends.

Behold:
It says: This One Is For the Transes. Gather 'round, stout yeomen, and hear the tale of the Fall of Klorg the Deathless. It is a tale told in 5 panels. Panel 1: The horrifying and Eldritch Klorg stands in a cavern, littered with the bones of centuries of fallen foes. His head is the skull of a deer, antlers reaching towards the cavern ceiling. He is cloaked in shadows, a long, thin neck stretching down to a dark, shrouded body. Two phantasmal bat wings stretch ot behind the warlock. A spikey scepter is held in one hand, while a second, bony appendage points toward a doomed hero. The young man--clad in full plate armor--is holding a sword and a shield. Klorg speaks: "Thou fool'", says he. "Knowest thou not the prophecy? No man may hinder me! No man's weapon may harm my flesh! No man's will may--" Panel 2: The hero skips forward, sticking his sword right into Klorg 's most of him. Sound FX is "Stabbity". Klorg lets out a death rattle, represented by an antlered skull, with Xs for eyes, and a tongue sticking out. He is dorded. Panel 3: Our hero is seated at a tavern, ale mug in hand. Next to him, an older, bearded gentleman stands, his own mug gripped tightly. The bearded man says: "A queer thing, your victory. No man had touched Klorg for centuries!" The hero looks confused. "Aye," he responds. "Queer indeed." Panel 4: The bearded man has walked away, and our hero takes a drink. Panel 5: Our hero has placed the mug down on the counter, a look of sudden realization on his face. "Oh..." she says. You know what? It's hard to WRITE a moment of suddenly realizing you are trans. The pronouns get you every time. Um. Thanks for reading! I love you!

Just seen Danny Tommo referred to as "Captain Thugwash" and seriously, that's excellent work.
