THE SHORT VERSION

A tank’s instructions and dry fit are treated as essential preparation because its assembly order affects both fit and access. Interior surfaces may need painting before the hull closes, and moving joints must remain free of glue. Rubber bands hold large parts while they set, allowing separate assemblies to progress in parallel. Controlled glue placement avoids visible seepage on the finished bodywork.

Editorial: The Spectacle of Gaming

Mark Latham explains why convincing scenery matters to the stories he imagines while playing, welcoming ready-made terrain when time for construction is scarce. The Realm of Battle board and Warriors of Chaos provide this month’s main gaming combination. He also shows Captain Perseon, a converted Sicarius painted for his Sons of Medusa, and introduces a two-part Marine painting guide intended to connect basic methods with ’Eavy Metal detail.

Realm of Battle

Andy Hall asks Dave Andrews how a six-tile plastic battlefield can offer both sculpted interest and a practical playing surface. Gentle stepped hills, recessed details and removable clips preserve model stability and storage flexibility. Jeremy Vetock supplies nine scenario ideas for three games, using hilltops, valleys and skull crevices in different ways. Painting and flocking demonstrations then show how the same board can become a grassy field or another environment.
