Nick: I’d like to start this month’s editorial of with an apology - I stated in the last issue that
we’d be releasing a city supplement for The Dresden Files RPG during November. Unfortu-
nately, due to the amount of writing involved, this ended up slipping to the point where
we had to concentrate on getting this issue prepared, rather than getting the supplement
out. It’s my project, so I’ll hold my hands up to this - we’re still going to release the supple-
ment, it’s just going to be a bit later than originally intended.

Now I’ve got that out of the way, what’ve I been up to? Well, I was with the Sheield Ir-
regulars at two shows during October - Derby World Wargames Show and Fiasco - as well
as attending the “Paint a Warhead” day during November. I was due to attend the Breast
Cancer Brawl charity event in early December, but unfortunately the weather intervened -
a foot or more of snow will mess with your plans.

On the painting front, I’ve been involved in an ongoing challenge over on WAMP - the
gauntlet was laid down to paint a character and two units for an army by February 1st
2011, but I felt this was too easy. Instead of completing the challenge for one army, I ini-
tially decided to try to paint six - Dwarfs for Warhammer, Romans for Warhammer Ancient
Battles, Cygnar and Mercenaries for Warmachine, and Trolls and Minions for Hordes.

During December, however, I decided to stretch myself a bit, and added two more armies
to the challenge - Khador for Warmachine, and Space Wolves for Warhammer 40k. I’ve also
been doing daily updates on m y WIP thread o ver there, both to keep me motivated and to
keep people up to date. At this point, I’ve painted the general for ive of my armies, and at
least one unit for three of them. With a month and a half to go, why not keep an eye on my
progress over on WAMP?

My rationing is going well, thus far, and I’m starting to clear out sections of my grey horde
- this has been at least partially aided by the Army Challenge, which has forced me to work
on some stuf for every faction I’d listed in the page. There’s still quite a bit to do, however,
so I’ll keep pressing forwards.
Jason: Well, its been a funny old 3 months, with lots of shows to attend. There are plans
afoot for a new venture starting next year and we’ve started preparations for IMP 2011
as well. What’s this new venture, I hear you ask - well, as of 2011 we will be publishing
campaigns for roleplaying games and for wargaming. These will be on a separate page on
the website, and yes these will be free to download. The irst two will be the long awaited
Dresden campaign set in Sheield and a Pathinder campaign setting by Taylor Holloway.
The aim is to produce these on a fairly regular basis. If anyone has an idea for a possible
campaign setting for an RPG or would like to write a campaign background for a set of war
game rules, then let us know at the usual email address - irregularmagazine@gmail.com
In regards to IMP 2011, we have a date for the event of July 17th, though further details
will follow in the New Year. What else has been going on? Well, we attended a number of
shows, such as Derby World Wargames Show and Fiasco in the UK. I have started my 12
month miniature-buying ban, which is becoming hard with all those nice shiny goodies
that keep being released. I’ve also started making a go at painting my grey army, begin-
ning with some War of the Roses miniatures.

There have been more plastics released for historical games, which have included Norman
cavalry and British WW2 infantry. Also we see the release of th e Games Workshop Space
Marine movie for those who are fans of the 40k background.
By the time you’re reading this Christmas will have been and gone, so I hope you had a
excellent holiday and received lots of hobby related goodies.
Well that’s all from me folks, see you next time.

Here’s what our judges had to say about this entry.
The painting is really very good all over and the grain
on the wooden parts of the rile and fur coat are espe-
cially brilliant! Dave Barker
This is a very good paint job, especially on the wood
grain, very nice indeed. Jason Hubbard
