§ V. — The Field Manual

How-To & Tutorials

Read at the workbench, watch on the tablet beside it. Written by the folks who pack your boxes and play on Wednesday nights.

Beginner · 12 minute read

Edge highlighting without the wobble

A whole shelf of beginners get the basecoat right and falter at the highlight. Three brush angles, two thinning ratios, and the trick of working in flat-shadow light — that's the lot.

Intermediate · 18 minute watch

Combat Patrol Missions, sorted

The new mission deck has six twists most pickup games miss. We walk through each one with a worked example on a 30-by-44 board — including the corner deployments that ruin first-turn alpha strikes.

Building gothic ruins from foam

A weekend project. Hot-wire cutter, blue foam, the kind of patience you'd give a stripped paint job — and you'll have a piece of LOS-blocking terrain that holds up at the tournament weekend.
