October Round-Up – New Videos & Crackcon 6 31.10.25

I’ve taken this week to add two more videos to the Mogsymakes YouTube channel – a report of our Agincourt game from The Other Partizan (complete with a quick making-of the terrain cloth) and also my second 10mm painting video.

Over My Dead Body! Trojan Wars in 28mm with Midgard Heroic Battles

I ran this scenario for the first time at Britcon in August 2024 just as Midgard Heroic Battles was about to head to press for eventual release in November.

Battle of Bosworth Video 30.9.25

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be invited by Tamworth Wargames Club to run a Battle of Bosworth 1485 game in Tamworth Castle’s great hall.

Battle of Five Armies – new video 9.9.25

The chums & I took our Battle of Five Armies game for its second outing to the Colours Wargames Show in Newbury, UK, last weekend.
