BZRK by Michael Grant – Book Review

June 16, 2013 by hpholo 6 Comments

Conjoined twins Charles and Benjamin Armstrong have a vision of a utopian future—a future in which war, hunger, even minor conflict is nonexistent. They wish to see human society perfected. Which sounds pretty sweet, except that they hope to achieve it by sending brain-manipulating nanobots into the minds of the most powerful leaders on the […]

Warmachine Tactics – Cryx: Blackbane’s Ghost Raiders

June 15, 2013 by holojacob 2 Comments

Infantry may not be the stars of Warmachine, but that doesn’t make them any less important.  From screening high priority targets to overwhelming a foe with sheer numbers, infantry plays a critical role, especially in the armies of Cryx.  Today, I’m taking a look at Blackbane’s Ghost Raiders.

Black Dragons

June 3, 2013 by holojacob Leave a Comment

PROLOGUE to The Dragons of Jupiter Of the seven thousand coalition soldiers attacking Bunker Zero, only two penetrated the upper defenses. Kaneda and Ryu Kusanagi sprinted down the narrow steel corridor. Sonic cancellers in their boots turned booming metallic footfalls into whispers. Form-fitting smartskin shrouded their bodies in active camouflage. Not even shadows marked their […]

Drake Squad – Mercenaries at Large

June 3, 2013 by holojacob Leave a Comment

“Well, shit,” Twinkie said, staring at the sprawl of wreckage before him. It was like someone had just shot his dog. Or his cat, he supposed. He’d never had a pet before, so he never had to deal with losing one. That was a good thing, because he was sure it felt like this. The […]

Humanity Machine – Athens Assault

June 3, 2013 by holojacob 3 Comments

Artwork by Robert Chew. Used with permission. I opened my eyes for the first time. Honestly, there wasn’t much to see. I stood in a clear glass tube, naked and dripping with blood-red slime. Pinkish foam clung to the sides of the tank, popping and fizzing. A strong gag reflex hit me. It dropped me […]

Epic – Movie Review

June 2, 2013 by holojacob 2 Comments

IN SHORT: A race of miniature tree elves are about to choose their next leader in a really stupid way. Hordes of personified tree rot plan to crash the party. WHAT IT IS: Fun and visually striking, Epic took me on a ride I genuinely enjoyed from start to finish. WHAT IT IS NOT: Don’t […]

Warhammer 40K: Dark Eldar Army

May 16, 2013 by holojacob 9 Comments

Presenting my Warhammer 40K Dark Eldar army. While not being quite as filled with conversions as my other armies, I did enjoy painting this army quite a bit. I’m not a very good painter, but a simple layered drybrush technique served me quite well with this army. I’m particularly happy with how the Incubi capes […]
