I’ve sent off a few advance copies of Chronicles of Midgard for review and Nick at Medieval Wargamer hasn’t hung around! He printed out his copy from the PDF and already has a video on it – watch it here!

Pre orders are going really well but there’s still time to get one in before release on April 16th (and to collect at Salute on April 11th, if you’re there). All details (including TFL distributors for non-UK orders) here.

Many thanks to everyone who’s pre ordered already and I’m looking forward to seeing copies out in the wild!

I collected together some of the photos and footage from the sessions for Chronicles of Midgard to make a short preview trailer.

If you want to know more, there is a longer video from Too Fat Lardies, with an interview and play examples of Chronicles of Midgard.

The supplement is now available to pre-order here:

UK & Rest of World (not covered by distributors below)

EU (Karwansary Publishing)

USA (Age of Glory)

Australia & New Zealand (Battlefield Accessories Australia)

Good news from Richard just now about the Too Fat Lardies website. He understandably wants to check it’s all functioning properly before launching the Chronicles of Midgard pre order, so please keep your eyes peeled for an announcement. Thank you for your patience. James.

Last night’s Plastic Crack Podcast with lots of Midgard talk is now available on YouTube. It was lovely to chat to Dom, Martin and Ste and great to see so many familiar names tuning in, though I think my wife’s highlight was when our daughter attempted to commando crawl under the camera on her way to the kitchen! https://www.youtube.com/live/L2nUIfGuR4o?si=GKGNdkrkgEscYFmW

For those who’ve not seen it, news from Too Fat Lardies about the issues affecting the TFL website and delaying the pre orders for Chronicles of Midgard.

I’ll post as soon as this is resolved and the Chronicles of Midgard pre order is available.

Hi! I’ll get the bad news out of the way first. We were hoping to get the Chronicles of Midgard pre-order live today but I have just received news from Richard at Reisswitz/ TFL:

This is really frustrating as I know he was working over the weekend to get everything aligned with the overseas distributors, but nothing we can do about this apart from wait for an update. I’ll share news as soon as we have it.

In much better news, I’ll be on the Plastic Crack Podcast tonight (8 pm GMT, 16th March) to talk about all things Midgard. Please do join us if you can or watch the recording afterwards.

In further YouTube news, I’m very honoured that Little Wars TV delivered a glowing review of Midgard Heroic Battles in a recent episode. Watch it here.

It’s been an exceptionally busy few weeks (aren’t they all?). On February 27th I took possession of the proof copies of Chronicles of Midgard and then demoed the campaign system the following day at the Hammerhead Show in Newark.

Big thanks to Pete, Paul and Mike who ran games all day too.

Not forgetting Boondock Sayntes, who also had a stunning Relief of Minas Tirith game at the show, also using Midgard…

Although the book is done, there’s a couple of final things that need sorting before Reisswitz Press get the pre-order up and running. I’ll let you know as soon as it’s live.

I’ve been hunched over the camera capturing images for The Iron Valley – this will be the first of the Goblet-Sized PDF Campaigns for Midgard and features both 28mm and 10mm miniatures.

In case you missed it, Little Wars TV have a fab new video up on their site – the Battle of Bosworth using Midgard Heroic Battles. This is very entertaining and it’s extremely flattering that they enjoyed the rules so much (you may spot a couple of minor errors in the video but it doesn’t seem to have stopped them having a blast, exactly as it should be!) Well worth 30 minutes of your time.

Getting ready for some Viking & Saxon action at Hammerhead (Newark Showground on February 28th). We’ll be running games of Midgard Heroic Battles throughout the day as well as showcasing the campaign system featured in the forthcoming supplement, Chronicles of Midgard. Show details are here: https://www.hammerheadshow.co.uk/home

After years of hand-painting my own banners, I decided to scan my latest creations and make them available for download at Wargame Vault: https://www.wargamevault.com/en/browse?keyword=mogsymakes

There are initially three sets available, all designed for Saxons and Vikings.

There’s also a short video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nSE26PnEJl4?si=1Yhj1E7aBg1oeLCp 28mm minis in these examples by Pulp Miniatures, Footsore, Artizan & Gripping Beast.

You can see the banners page with full details here.

I’m continuing to reorganise the website to make older posts easier to find. The latest addition is a Trojan Wars in 6mm page, which collects three blog posts together about the making of this project. There’s also a 3 minute YouTube video, which you can see here.

The 28mm Trojan Wars collection will be next on the list.
