Hello Spikeybits, it’s Jstove again, and you don’t read this part anyways.BUT THAT DOESN’T MATTER, BECAUSE YOU’LL PROBABLY READ STUFF IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE IT LOOKS ANGRY. Well, what you should know is that ROB BAER, owner and operator of Spikeybits, FTW Games, and sworn enemy of the Thundercats HATES MONEY. That’s right, Rob hates […]

Sup Spikeybits, it’s JStove, and while everything is on sale, let’s pick over Rob’s stock and see what he’s got hanging around. Keep in mind I don’t actually work for Rob, I just write for him. He pays me in… Well, he doesn’t actually pay me. He just gives me a company discount. Which reminds […]

Good morning Los Angeles 2029, it’s Jstove here and I’m back to show you some toys I’ve been working on. Like every Necron player ever, I’ve long fancied the idea of the Terminator tribute army- The army that everyone thinks about, but to my knowledge, no one has ever actually done. Quick, somebody prove me […]

Hey internet, Jstove here and everyone drop what you’re doing.Open the door, get on the floor, chaos players shelf your dinosaurs.

Imagine for a moment that you are Gav Crudward, GW’s most/least talented games designer… Editor’s note, this article does not depict any particular company, and / or individual specifically. Obviously this is a light hearted article about what’ seems to be in the hearts and minds of fans everywhere as of late. Kids, Do not try […]

Dear Internet it’s Jstove, and I’m here to talk to you today about being a penny-pinching cheapskate with your hobby, because I’m pretty much the beggar king of budgethammer.This is going to be a long one, so unless you’re interested in saving money and lots of hobby talk, just scroll right past and go click on […]

Hey internet, it’s Jstove here, reminding you that I’m still alive. It’s ok, I know you don’t care. But there’s important things to discuss. First, for reference, check out this article Reece over at Frontline recently had up on BoLS. Now, even better, let’s go back to a month ago when he FORETOLD THE FUTURE. […]

Hello Internet, its Jstove here, and we can’t shut up about Space Marines.The good news is, the Nids are starting to trickle in on the rumor front, so we’ll only be riding this space marine gravy train for… Oh, I don’t know, the rest of eternity? This new 6e SM codex is objectively a pretty sweet […]

Hello Internet, Jstove here with a little show and tell.Let’s go back, but not very far, at least not very far as most of us guys who have been hobbying for a while are concerned, to Battlefleet Gothic. For those of you who didn’t get into the GW scene until after Kirby and friends put […]

Hello internet.  Well, I think it’s pretty safe to say it, us chaos players are pissed. Larry Vela has said it, Black Blowfly has said it, Goatboy has said it… View Post You’ve heard it from pretty much every corner of BoLS, We as chaos players have pretty much broken up with Phil Kelly and […]

Dear GW,  It’s me, JStove, and we need to talk. About us.We’re having some problems lately, well actually, I’m having some problems lately. Yea, I guess its all me. You see, there’s not a lot I don’t like about you lately. I actually think you’re doing pretty good. When the Joneses down the street are […]

Sup Spikey Bits, it’s Comrade JStove here again to talk about the Tau, and this time, its not as a satirical propaganda article.I know some of you will be disappointed that I am not purposely straining poor grammar and a fake Russian accent in this article, but to be honest, it hurts my brain to […]

Good morning Spikey Bits… Or afternoon, or evening. It’s morning somewhere.Don’t ask me, I do all my writing after the sun goes down. It’s Jstove here and I’ve got a story to tell. Editor’s note- Recasting copyrighted miniatures is wrong. It ranks up there with pirating music, buying bootleg DVD’s etc etc.  That being said […]

Good morning internet! It’s JStove back in action, your resident purple people eater and Emperor’s Child, the original son of Legion III. Today, I want to talk to you about Horus Heresy games.

It’s Jstove (the ever provocative?) here as usual and as I’m writing this, we’re all digesting rumors for apocalypse and the new marine dex, while checking out those swanky new marine captains. Of course, GW never lets us down when it comes to buff dudes in power armor, that’s their thing. But I’m wondering lately, […]
