Featured this month is Uruks_Customs and their Magore’s Fiends previewed on a prior monthly roundup, now finally completed. The whole band is done with the same underlit lava basing and yes: it’s as good as I had hoped. What a gorgeous set of toy soldiers

PODCASTS
Underworlds Underground struggle as usual, but did manage to (barely) spit out two episodes this month. Here is a live audio battle report of Thyrielle vs Kamandora as recorded on Tabletop Simulator, and here is a Hot or Not vibe check on the warbands of the Grand Alliance: Chaos Box from 2024
Sadly, no other podcasts posted anything this month. Thomas and I win by default! What a joyous occasion.

July 18th and 19th saw the Tacoma Open which I attended. I even got third with Dromm, and I wrote about it here. Second went to my boy Andrew/Rex, and First place was Maksym Zdor with some real nasty shadeborn.
August 2nd, 2026 was Under-Ekeren IV in Antwerp, Belgium. I know it didn’t happen in July but I’m writing this post on 8/2 so you get the update. After 5 round, Joep Nijssen won with Jaws of Itzl, Val Hornik took second with… wait…
IRONSKULL’S BOYZ?!?!?!
Don’t mind the tears in my eyes, I’m just so happy to see my boy back in action
And third place in that event went to Cyril Deneux with Starblood Stalkers.
UPCOMING
August 5th will have a Warhammer World clash and it’s not too late to sign up!
August 13th-15th Was ORIGINALLY supposed to be the the last Underworlds event in the Warhammer Open Series for the year, this one in Newport, Wales. Unfortunately, it was canceled due to ‘circumstances beyond anyone’s control’, but fortunately the Misfit Guild/Wales crew has organized another event to occupy the same time slot. Head to 20 minutes down the road in the much bigger Firestorm Cardiff location for some of the sold-out crowd you would originally have expected to see. Just waiting on Firestorm to put the tickets live on their site and they’re off to the races! People can keep an eye on the Misfit Guild YouTube channel for more updates on it.
My homie Saxthom/Thomas from Underworlds Underground is running an event on August 22nd at the Smite Club Open in Phoenix Arizona. It will have a Golden Ticket!
