Content We Liked: 7th April, 2024

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.

 

On the Internet at Large

Lets start this week out for pouring one out for the Beasts of Chaos, they’ve gone to pillage that great Undefended Rural Village in the sky now, leaving armies like this delightfully insane one here without a dark den to call home.

 

Keeping that gothique weirdness rolling, we’ve also got this deliciously dark take on the Genestealer Cult Clamavus, using Necromunda’s Propagandist weirdo as an excellent base to build a mutant rabble-rouser around. Topped off with a freehanded replication of a classic Genestealer hybrid, this mutie leaves a hell of a statement.

Keeping this week’s conversion theme going, we’ve got a baroque take on the Void Dragon up next. Fusing the C’tan together with parts from Vash’tor is an inspired choice, bringing us a more fantastical Void Dragon to the base miniature.

 

Honestly if this was tournament legal we’d take back all the bad things we said about the last T’au codex.
