December Update 6.12.24

Hiya! Another busy week round these parts…

Nikolas of the Medieval Wargamer YouTube channel and I put our heads together and created a couple of Hundred Years’ War lists suitable for the Agincourt campaign of 1415, along with my designer’s notes (on why the French have such limited Heroes! and other stuff). These are free to download from the main Midgard Heroic Battles page on my site, along with the previous lists and a Play Sheet for Midgard with page numbers thoughtfully added by Andy DrBeard.

Not only that, but Nick also recorded a play through game of Midgard set during the Baron’s War and has recorded an interview with me that will be heading for a future video release. If you’re not sick of hearing my voice, Henry Hyde has also made his latest Battlechat Podcast available to all this week, in which I talk about gaming, Midgard and growing up down the road from a castle, which explains a lot…

A box of hard copies of Midgard has arrived at Shieldwall Miniatures in the USA. Jeff of Shieldwall is also 3D printing the official measuring sticks and rulers under licence, so check them out if you’re in the USA.

People still seem to be enjoying the game out there! The latest WSS magazine carries a nice review, and below is a selection of posts from social media this week.

Plans are afoot for a Midgard event in the UK next year with a mixture of themed campaigns and hosted games. I’ll announce the details as soon as I can.

Last but not least this week, I have a new logo for Mogsymakes. Based on my ape-like sketches, Asun from Wargames Illustrated kindly put this together for me. I’m planning to redesign parts of the website over the next month, so watch out for this putting in an appearance.
