I can hardly believe it. After months of preparation and anticipation, Lock & Load is finally here! The Privateer Press crew has been busily planning seminars, crafting terrain, organizing tournaments, and painting new armies to wage war in Iron Arena.

To put on an event as ambitious as this, all hands will be on deck at Lock & Load, so the Privateer Insider blog will resume its normal schedule next week. But never fear! There’s lots of great coverage of Lock & Load to tide you over till then. Be sure to check out the forums to keep up with Guts n Gears’ coverage of Lock & Load, as well as No Quarter reports from the field and live Facebook and Twitter updates on Privateer’s social media channels. And if you’re attending Lock & Load this year, well, we’ll see you there! My Conquest and I will be waiting in Iron Arena, ready for battle.
