Okay so everything arrives within a few days after ordering, I ordered a pair of these, One for myself and one for Alex, but I figure while you have 2x identical tablets in the house, it would be interesting to benchmark the supplied operating system against the modded one. Having […]
Now to copy over the files we need to load a custom image… Power off the Tablet, and unplug the data cable, Keep it plugged into the power supply. Power the tablet back on in normal mode. Once Booted, plug the usb cable back in and enable USB transfer on […]
The following has been tested under Windows XP SP3 and Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, But you should be fine under Windows XP/Vista/7 and any vaguely up-to-date Linux install.

Some pictures from the trip to Tom and Jo's place in Shrewsbury, henceforth referred to as Hinterzerg. Mostly pictures of us playing through levels 2 and 3 of Warhammer Quest (Full write-up of the campaign and encounter tables to be added to the wargames section soon). Also some pics of the board game "Carcassonne".
June 19th 1944, Pacific theatre. The American invasion of Saipan triggers Admiral Toyoda’s counter-attack codenamed “A-Go”, which in turn resulted was the largest* naval battle of all time. In this series of articles I will show you how I recreated both fleets (plus aircraft and supporting vessels) in order to […]
Have you ever seen on of those HUGE display games at a show, with thousands of figures pitted in an epic struggle? Ever felt inspired to do something on that scale but not had the cash? In this series of articles I will be putting together a massive scale fantasy […]
This is a series of articles documenting how we achieved what was thought the impossible. Getting four gamers to pick up a never before tried rules system on impulse at a show, and actually get four forces painted and games played played inside a month. It just goes to show, […]
hello sdddddd
With the ships done, its time to look into airpower. Navwar also produce 1:3000 aircraft to go with the ships, although these are pretty much pushing the boundaries of sanity in terms of size. An F4F Wildcat with a wingspan of 11 meters in reality would scale down to around […]
So, with this initial idea buzzing around my head I started to round down the specific details. Firstly miniatures scale. This was a bit of a no-brainer as the scale it pretty much dictated to you by GW when you choose fantasy. Although I love 6mm as a scale, there […]
These things always have a way of starting fairly innocuously. Tom and myself were sitting around, enjoying a frosty beer after a particularly hard fought game of “Battles for Empire” (Anglo-Zulu War). To hand was a box of old magazines which I was too sentimental to recycle, mostly ‘White Dwarf’ […]
Ok, before consigning the stock ROM to oblivion (Or more correctly, before diligently backing it up in case we need to return the device to the store), I will just give people a quick tour of the supplied OS. If this was a film it would be “Nancy Drew and […]
This was a piece I hadn’t originally intended to write, however I thought before modding the tablet I should learn a bit about its inner workings. What I discovered was that the Hannspad is very much a ‘top end’ tablet, which for its low price I find confusing. What follows […]
As part of my daily commute I spend roughly 2 hours a day on either a train, bus, or the tube, I figured I could do with some entertainment whilst travelling. I already own an Android Smartphone, and have been impressed by the Android software platform and the Market. Picking […]
For 1AP per element, lurkers are cheap and if used correctly, highly effective. +2 in combat they are hardly the best combat units available, but their ability to appear an any area of ‘bad going’ entered by the enemy means they can cause havoc in your opponents line disproportional to […]
