Tabletop gaming hits the silver screen

m1080034_image_devastator_artAnyone who plays Warhammer 40K knows how much work goes into your army. The modeling, the filing, the painting, on and on and on. Then you send hours compiling your army list, carefully pack the Emperor’s superhuman servants in foam, take them down to the local game shop, and for what?

    You wouldn't understand it by the never ending barrage of black PowerBook's through the '90s, and even the onyx MacBooks within the mid-00s, but dark-clad machines from Apple were typically non-existant until Cupertino got fascinated about laptops, excluding in fact the ill-fated Macintosh TV. Exempt from the existing 'Snow White' design ethos however, were clones sold by other… »
