Dragged into Turbolasers

Adam Wier, Eric Wier, Gregory Wier

Dragged into Turbolasers is Between the Bolter and Me's official miniature wargaming podcast. We talk critically about all aspects of the miniature hobby, with a primary focus on Warhammer 40,000 and other Games Workshop games. Rather than conversing about rules and competitive play, our priority is to discuss the miniature side of the hobby: exploring hobby techniques, talking about our current projects on the blog Between the Bolter and Me, and most importantly, interviewing people involved in the hobby.

    Episode 132: An Ode to John Blanche, Games Workshop is using AI, and the state of hobby YouTube channels

    We begin this episode expressing our sadness at the passing of John Blanche, a luminary that defined Games Workshop’s artstyle and vision for decades. We then touch on how just days later GW revealed Horus Heresy artwork that almost certainly used AI tools to give a Space Marine a sixth finger. Finally we discuss the state of miniature hobby YouTube channels and how the algorithm necessitates boring, but searchable content. Watch Trademark Film’s interview with John Blanche. See the six-finger Space Marine. Watch RedWetSkeleton’s hobby sessions on YouTube.

    Episode 119 - Part 2: Under the Dice Fest 2025

    In part two of a special two-part episode, we interview people who attended Under the Dice Fest 2025, a small festival in Massachusetts celebrating miniature-based tabletop wargaming. The festival was designed to appeal to those who shy away from the mainstream iterations of the miniature wargaming hobby, focusing on those who want to play the games on their terms, sometimes outside of the scope of the game rules as written, or those who want to play old games which their publishers no longer support. It is highlighting those who are more concerned with telling a story with the miniatures they build than with creating something that would be optimal in terms of a game’s rule system. A punk rock approach to the miniature wargaming hobby, if you will. Below are time stamps of the various interviews: 0:56 - Chatting with Stefano (eldermoss3) 23:00 - Chatting with Gray (schlubcinema) 46:44 - Chatting with Dillon (voidhalation) 1:20:26 - Chatting with Zell (thoseonceloyal40k)
