As we get on with the new year properly, Hobby Hangout has slowed down a little, since people have to go back to work. This week, we talked about what conventions people planned on going to!

Bishop Steiner starts us off by showing off several different forces (though we LOVE these Tamar Jaegers!) and talking wanting to make it to Gen Con or Adepticon this year! We want to see you there too!

elder_jester showed us all of his BattleTech projects for last year, so of course we had to revisit theses lovely dioramas! We can't wait to see you at Adepticon and hopefully you bring a few of them to show Randall and the gang!

Luciora came out of left field as always with this Kamen Rider-themed Grasshopper! It looks so alone, and should have someone to team up with, and maybe even some villains to fight!

UcantSimi popped by to show off this little Jade Falcon Howler from the Scouring Sands box set! We can't wait to see you at SPIEL Essen as well! Randall always loves meeting up with fans!

Ginoxy #1140 wraps us up with this gorgeous Ryuken-Go Black Knight! We look forward to working with you again at SPIEL Essen again in 2026! More demos and more beautiful minis! - https://www.instagram.com/p/DTIXAnijdQV/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

The Pillar of Steel

Learn to serve the Draconis Combine and the Dragon with honor in Force Manual: Kurita!

The Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery is a cornerstone of Kuritan society. Founded as one of the Five Pillars of society, the Pillar of Steel is the bulwark with which the Combine defends itself, and the sword that strikes its foes. Force Manual: Kurita follows the long history of the DCMS and showcases many of the Dragon's most prestigious regimental commands, such as the Sword of Light and the Arkab Legion and those of lesser standing like the Legion of Vega. Use this book to construct your force and go forward in the name of the Dragon!

Where the Lies End, the Test Begins

The latest Shadowrun Missions content is out now on the Catalyst Game Labs web store! Get your copy of SRM: 2081-12: The Red Pill today!

The shadows of Seattle stretch high into the sky—and deep into the past. When a pair of Johnsons tap the team to trace the source of a dangerous new narcotic, the trail leads straight into the ACHE: the towering husk of the old Renraku arcology, now a vertical warren of desperation, gang turf, and forgotten tech.
