The Age of Sigmar battleforces are just round the corner so we're bringing you our AoS battleforce value breakdown so you can get the best deals. Last year the... Continue Reading →
What do you call a Saurus with three heads? A free Saurus. For a little while now Games Workshop have been offering a free miniature in store, as part of their Miniature of the Month promotion. With not one but two miniatures being given out during June 2023, we figured it was time to get... Continue Reading →
The Handful of Points Escalation League is back! After a month off where we relaxed and played skirmish games we jumped into our 1250 point games. Now we can start bringing out the big guns and synergies that are throttled at lower points values, and my scary Slaves to Darkness start getting a little less... Continue Reading →
Welcome back to our monthly escalation league update. The escalation league has taken April off so everyone can catch up on painting projects or take a short break if they're all done and ready, but this doesn't mean games weren't had. This month we broke out the skirmish games, specifically Warcry, Underworlds, and Blood Bowl,... Continue Reading →
For a little while now Games Workshop have been offering a free miniature in store, as part of their Miniature of the Month promotion. This article we're not painting one, but two of these free miniatures. Thanks to distribution issues and schedules we weren't all able to get February's Jade Obelisk Cultist, but we've now...

We're back for month three of our escalation league, and this time we're at 1000 points. More points mean longer games though, and we weren't particularly fast to begin with, so I only got one game in this time but hopefully we can speed up for the 1250 point games and get more in. If...

Games Workshop's latest subscription magazine service released on the 15th of February, and on the surface it appears to be pretty darn good value for money. But is it? Having spent £2.99 on the first issue, and a whole morning crunching numbers, I am here to report my findings to you, so you can decide... Continue Reading →
Another month, another exciting day of gaming here at the HoD offices. This month saw the Handful of Points Escalation League go from 500 points up to 750 points, which means new and exciting goodies (and baddies) in our armies. If you haven't read our article about our first session, you can find it here.... Continue Reading →
The Handful of Dice team have a problem. We don't actually play a lot of Warhammer... We play a fair amount of Underworlds and the occasional online game, but with a team spread out along the south coast and around London we don't get to play a lot of physical games of Age of Sigmar...

For a little while now Games Workshop have been offering a free miniature in store, as part of their Miniature of the Month promotion. This month they've upped their game though, and going forward not only will they be giving out a free mini, but it will be a brand new model from one of... Continue Reading →
Seeing as we've already sat down and discussed our favorite Warhammer Miniatures it was only a matter of time until the inevitable other debate came up - which miniatures are the worst looking? The Handful of Dice team once again gathered round the table (and tried to resist flipping it when debate got heated) to... Continue Reading →
Let's face facts. You can measure how good a Warhammer mini is by many metrics, but we all know there’s one measure that beats them all - the rule of cool is always king. We all might follow the meta and try to come up with competitive lists, but there’s often just that one model... Continue Reading →
Dominion is an Age of Sigmar Black Library novel, written by Darius Hinks, that tied in with the release of the new Dominion box set. We get thrown into the realm of Ghur, home to all manner of monstrous beasts that prey on anything they come across. The city of Excelsis sits in these deadly... Continue Reading →
