OnTabletop Weekender Ep252: Forge World; Time To Go Mainstream?

Welcome to The Weekender where we're going to be getting stuck into everything that's new with the tabletop gaming world from this week and hearing your thoughts too.

As always we'd love to hear your thoughts and more on everything we're talking about today in the comments below!

Updates - Essen Prize Winners Announced!

We've now announced all of the winners from our Essen 2018 Prize Draw. Go and see if you won over on the Prize Claim Centre that we've set up and make sure to get in contact in order to win your goodies.

Additionally, we've also have moji from the community giving us a proper history lesson on 2000AD and it's time on the tabletop. You can check out both Part One and Part Two which give us an in-depth look at this comic book universe.

Forge World; Time To Change?

We all know that Forge World serves as a great way to provide alternatives for your forces in Warhammer 40,000 and such but is it time that some of the Forge World line-up became available in plastic?

With the release of The Hobbit book for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game Sam wishes that a lot of the miniatures they've designed would be transferred into plastic so that people could play the armies without the massive cost attached!

We postulate how this might then become the norm for the Horus Heresy and perhaps some of the existing accessories available for Warhammer 40,000 and Age Of Sigmar too. We'd love to see more plastic options available for the likes of the Astra Militarum & Adeptus Astartes!

News

We take some time to go through the news from this week...

• SWL Imperial Depot - Micro Art build some great new Star Wars terrain
• Krennic & Chewie - Not a new comedy duo but a preview of the new releases for Star Wars: Legion

We sit down with the team from TTCombat to talk with them about what the future holds for their game ranges, be they Dropzone and Dropfleet or the worlds of Carnevale and RumbleSlam.
