Only "later" never came and I forgot about them.</p>
<p>Now, after prompting from a visitor who is getting back in to some nearly-Oldhammer, I've now <a href="/Downloads/cat_WarhammerFBADFs.html">uploaded the Warhammer 5th/6th edition ADF files</a>.</p>Games Workshop on a Budget - Cleanuphttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_127.htmlIBBoard2013-04-06T19:31:01+00:00<p>Yes, we're quiet, but we're still here and we still have useful information!</p>
<p>Thanks to a prompt from Margaret, the <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">Games Workshop on a Budget</a> article has been updated. Some of the dead links have been removed, and a new suggestion has been added.</p>
<p>So, <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">read up</a> on the article (and its <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudgetPt2.html">model-centric follow-up</a>) and check your local area for wargames shows, which could be your new source of cheaper scenery, material and models!</p>Coat d'Arms paint conversion chart updatehttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_126.htmlIBBoard2012-03-24T09:56:06+00:00<p>For unknown reasons, Games Workshop have recently decided to rename every single paint in their range. Unlike some recent changes, paints don't seem to have been lost, just renamed.</p>
<p>The <a href="/Article/view_CoatDArmsConversionChart.html">Coat d'Arms paint conversion table</a> has now been updated to list the older Games Workshop paint names and the newer Games Workshop paint names next to the equivalent Coat d'Arms paints (where available).</p>Games Workshop on a Budget - Part 2https://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_125.htmlIBBoard2011-04-19T19:58:11+00:00<p>It has been a while (mainly because of a focus on <a href="https://warfoundry.co.uk/">WarFoundry</a>) but HWT has just had another update. The idea has been sitting in my inbox for ages, but I only tripped over it again when I tried to clear out my unread emails.</p>
<p>The <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudgetPt2.html">GW on a budget - part 2</a> article compliments the original <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudgetPt2.html">Games Workshop on a Budget</a> article with pointers on making your models go further. Thanks to Richard Wilton for his ideas, which contributed to the creation of the new article.</p>More updates to GW on a Budgethttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_124.htmlIBBoard2010-06-15T19:00:49+00:00<p>I know, I know, we've been really quiet again, but I promise that it is because good things are in the works on <a href="https://warfoundry.co.uk">WarFoundry</a>.</p>
<p>The good news is that the GW <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">GW on a budget</a> article has been updated with a couple of tips from Paper Lilybean. The tips came by email and have been included as a <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html#buy-clever">Buying cleverly</a> and an <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html#alternatives">Alternative models</a> section.</p>
<p>Thanks to Paper Lilybean for the contributions, and I hope that people are still finding the article useful!</p>Fixing the unreadablehttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_123.htmlIBBoard2010-02-16T13:15:33+00:00<p>Sorry to anyone who recently saw a question mark symbol (e.g. �) in the middle of their pages. To help support multi-lingual content with the translation of <a href="https://warfoundry.co.uk">WarFoundry</a>, the server got switched from the default (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin-1#ISO-8859-1">ISO-8859-1</a> or "latin-1", I think) to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8">UTF-8</a>).</p>
<p>Unfortunately the change broke accented characters (e.g. <a href="/Encyclopedia/definition_Ghul.html">Ghül</a>) and the £ symbol, but once <a href="http://twitter.com/keepstherainoff/status/9156710135">it was reported</a> I've found it and fixed all occurrences (I think!)</p>
<p>Remember, we may be a bit quiet here, but the next generation of army list management and creation software is being built in the guise of <a href="https://warfoundry.co.uk">WarFoundry</a> (even after <a href="http://forums.hiveworldterra.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=1378">recent threats of legal action</a> against us).</p>Games Workshop on a Budget - new storehttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_122.htmlIBBoard2009-11-29T19:55:00+00:00<p>Thanks to a tip from "Kyrogre", our <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">Games Workshop on a budget</a> article has been updated with another online store offering Games Workshop products at a discount. <a href="http://www.onestopwargames.co.uk/">One Stop Wargames</a> have now been added to our list of "online shops offering discounts on Games Workshop".</p>Games Workshop on a Budget updatedhttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_121.htmlIBBoard2009-11-13T11:13:58+00:00<p>With my focus on the <a href="https://warfoundry.co.uk/">WarFoundry army creator</a> and its first beta releases, this website has been neglected a little. That's not to say it will disappear, just that things don't get added as frequently or quickly as I'd like.</p>
<p>What has just been updated is our <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">Games Workshop on a Budget</a> article. I've added a new subsection on how to get your models cheaper, thanks to a suggestion for a visitor called Mark, and I've also added a sub-section about tools.</p>
<p>Hopefully the new <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html#sharing">article</a> <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html#equipment">content</a> helps people find some useful discounts or cheaper ways to fit more gaming in to their budget!</p>Encyclopedia definition updateshttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_120.htmlIBBoard2009-06-11T18:22:27+00:00<p>Thanks to Jay Deeftue, our Encyclopedia definition for <a href="/Encyclopedia/definition_GregorEisenhorn.html">Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn</a> has now been corrected and updated. During my original research I appear to have found a sentence that seemed to fit my search for the Inquisitor who trained Eisenhorn, however I misunderstood the phrase and incorrectly identified his master.</p>Online store removed from "GW on a budget" articlehttps://www.hiveworldterra.co.uk/News/view_119.htmlIBBoard2009-05-25T08:04:13+00:00<p>Following a tip-off via email, WarhammerDirect.com has been removed from our list of <a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html#onlinestores">online stores</a> who offer good discounts in the "<a href="/Article/view_GamesWorkshopOnABudget.html">Games Workshop on a budget</a>" article.</p>
<p>Although we make no guarantees about any of the stores in the list, it appears that WarhammerDirect.com is a trading domain for a company called Millennium Empire, who have an <a href="http://www.bbb.org/atlanta/business-reviews/internet-shopping/millennium-empire-in-marietta-ga-12001341">awful record</a> with the Atlanta <acronym title="Better Business Bureau">BBB</acronym>. As such we decided that it was in the best interests of our visitors if we did not continue to recommend this site for its discount on Games Workshop products.</p>
