Although it’s a big internet out there, the Tabletop digital universe is pretty small and spread out. In Content We Liked, we take a look at the articles, videos, podcasts, and products that caught our eyes or were noteworthy during the prior week you might have missed.

Happy Blood Angels pre-order weekend! If you’re not busy rending your shirts and screaming to the skies because there’s not enough nipples on your tiny soldiers or some shit, then feast your eyes on this incredibly cool Captain kitbash harkening back to the live fast die fast days of 8th.

I’ve never read the book series this next piece draws its inspiration from, because reading is for dweebs and dorks, but you don’t have to to appreciate the grim and creepy resonance of this Sister of Battle, looking like she’s about to drop the grimiest Black Metal album of the 90’s. Cvlt as hell.
Once again we’re visiting the Nestorian Infestation, and once again Lenoon posted something that is both awesome as hell and makes my skin crawl. This gribbly take on a Neurotyrant and Tyranid Warriors is insanely gross, in all the best ways.
This is Buddo. The earliest depiction of a human figure found anywhere in the British Isles. It is made out of whale bone and can be found in the Stromness Museum on Orkney. At 4,900 years old it comes from a time when mammoths still walked the Earth 🦣 . #neolithic #Orkney pic.twitter.com/ue4l58KrGn
