For the 2025 con at least. I officially finished painting at 6:04pm EST on 3/16/25 which is a new record for me. Last year I was painting at 2:00am the day I left and it didn't look great. Are you still painting? Will you be done in time? I even had time to paint a Bolt Action Winter German for fun!
See you all next week! Looking forward to seeing the armies you've been working on done. Let me know what events you're in and I'll try and stop by so I can check it out. ... See MoreSee Less

A lot of locals are taking the time to write some practical and entertaining guides to their city. Kyle Lloyd Arpke does an admirable job here, with some valuable insights and recommendations, though, for the record, he's wrong about Chicago architecture (we have plenty of old buildings, though we sorta had to start from scratch in 1871) and I sincerely can't imagine why anyone would want to visit the Green Bay Packer's Hall of Fame.

“Change is the essential process of all existence.” -Mr. Spock, ‘Let That Be Your Last Battlefield’
With AdeptiCon 2025 now just under two weeks away, we continue our series of 2025 terrain previews, with today’s focus on the various efforts we’ve directed towards the AdeptiCon ‘Age of Sigmar’ tables. The ‘Age of Sigmar’ terrain rules have seen significant changes and AdeptiCon has begun the transformative process, working on our terrain collection to address these major updates for 2025.
This large-scale updating and reorganizing process would not be possible without the inspired and innovative terrain designs from companies like Sawant3d, Sacrusmundus, EC3D Design, Fantastic Portals and Effects, Zabavka Workshop, 3dHexes, and Fantastic Plants and Rocks.
Additional thanks for the invaluable support from our partners Games Workshop, Monument Hobbies, TABLEWAR, Grey Matter Gaming, Deepcut Studio, GameMat.eu, Badger Air-Brush Company, and The Army Painter - all of whose product support literally made this effort possible.
And, once again, major props to the members of the AdeptiCon Terrain and Spray Teams (Deeds Not Words) for all the hard work. There has been a massive effort in 2025 to expand and improve the overall terrain aesthetics and gaming experience and it shows in the final results.
The images here are just a small sampling of the new terrain. To take a deeper dive, of all the terrain efforts check out the link below for a better view of a galaxy far, far away…

Warhammer Community today released a Warhammer 40K Dataslate update. This update will be in effect for AdeptiCon’s Warhammer 40K events and we believe this decision is in line with our stated policy of “no major changes” after March 15th. The 40K rules documents will be updated over the next day or so.
With roughly two weeks until the convention, we do understand that this is a relatively short window of time, and we apologize for any inconvenience this causes anyone still working on their armies. However, we have always tried to use the most up-to-date version of the rules to the greatest extent possible and this decision is consistent with that attempt.
We appreciate your understanding and your enthusiasm. We are very much looking forward to seeing you in a couple weeks.
We thought we'd share some images of the coveted Golden Tickets some of you may be competing for at AdeptiCon this year. Only the most skilled (and/or lucky) players will walk away with these proverbial passports to participate in the World Championships this November in Atlanta, Georgia.
AdeptiCon will present two Warhammer 40,000 tickets, two Age of Sigmar tickets, and one each for Kill Team and Underworlds.
