Happy New Year - 2025!

Hello hello fellow Caesurians! Welcome back to your Fridayly fix of The Art of Caesura!

Okay after that lexicographically questionable salutation, I'll stop making up words. HAPPY NEW YEAR!! (in a few days). 2025. Man, the years are flying by! I remember back in my day, yadda yadda yadda...

Having kids, while making your body feel older, does help to make your soul feel younger. It's fulfilling to reminisce about Christmases and New Yearses of my youth through their eyes. Wait a minute, what's with all this sappy sentimentality!? I haven't even hit 40 yet, and longtime readers will know that, here on The Art of Caesura, we save the sappiness for a few weeks' time when we celebrate the blog's birthday!

Today is supposed to be about materialism - past, present and future!! Namely, sharing some of the loot that is likely to turn up on the blog. 

So, the big hobby news is that a few weeks ago I bought a 3D Resin Printer! A Saturn 4 Ultra, to be precise! My long-term desire to get a 3D printer was buoyed by Trench Crusade and the awesome 3D printable files (STLs) that were part of that campaign. At time of writing, I haven't printed anything yet (I'm still accumulating all the requisite bits and pieces (including knowledge); but you can expect much coverage of my experiences in 3D printing in 2025. 


Aside from Trench Crusade, I backed a bunch of Kickstarters in the past year and a bit, and many of them are due to fulfill in 2025, so keep your eyes peeled for coverage of:

Nemesis Retaliation:


Dragon Eclipse:


Degenesis: Clan Wars:


Many exciting times ahead! I hope you will join me for them!

Welcome 2025!

See you back here next week for more of The Art of Caesura!

Next Week:

I have the POWER!

The Full Stop - Trench Crusade

The skies shall darken, the ground shall open up and the screams of the damned shall echo through the ages. - Novae Revelationes 99:24, Trench Crusade Greetings friends of the Caesura, and welcome back to your Friday dose of The Art of Caesura! I hope you are well, and I'm sending loads of positive vibes your way, especially if you need them today (and you will after reading of the awesome Grimdark horrors ahead).   Last week we left off looking at my plans and aspirations for Hive Fleet Klendathu, and today I had planned to show you the test model that I have painted for this Starship Troopers-inspired Tyranid force. However, something cool is afoot, and it's kind of time-sensitive... That's right - there's a Kickstarter (which has now raised over 2 million dollars!) for a very Grimdark miniatures skirmish game and it is due to end on Tuesday, so I decided to reschedule things on the blog a little to draw your attention to this before you miss your chance.  I am talki...

The Full Stop - A Deep Dive into Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol

Welcome to Combat Patrol!  Whether you are a new recruit to Warhammer 40,000  or a seasoned veteran,  Combat Patrol is all about getting your forces  into action as quickly as possible. - Combat Patrol Rules - Games Workshop Welcome back to the Art of Caesura! Recent readers will see that we've been looking at our fun little Warhammer gathering, KillCon over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago I provided a narrative verion of my game of Combat Patrol of my Black Templars vs. Tristan's Tyranids where as l ast week I gave a more "gamer oriented" play-by-play of the game.  Today I want to dive deeper into this accessible and engaging game-type. I want to argue that Combat Patrol is not just for beginners. Combat Patrol in 10th Edition is Games Workshop's new smallest scale Warhammer 40k game type. But unlike in previous editions, where it just meant that both sides took 500 point armies and went at it, in this edition, Games Workshop has changed things up a litt...

"Recitation of Faith" - Terminator Chaplain Conversion - Part 1

Chaplains rouse Space Marines to war  with their litanies of faith,  and never is this spiritual fortification more vital  than amidst the blood and horror of boarding actions  and beachhead strikes. - Games Workshop Hello all! Welcome to your weekly dose of The Art of Caesura! As usual, I'm sending you lots of positive vibes, especially if you need them today. After almost half a year of Hellboy content on the blog, it's time to return to my beloved Black Templars. I have actually been working away in the background over the past few months, polishing off a few high-profile projects for my Templars. The first of which I will begin to reveal today! Today is the first part of a kit-bash that I'm pretty proud of. We're going to be looking at it in detail over the next few weeks and today we'll look at the build.  For those unfamiliar with Black Templars, they are inspired by crusading knights and are really not fans of psychic folks (the whole "burn the witch...
