Hello everyone and welcome to the Sword and Board hobby shop in Milnerton, Cape Town, South Africa!
Sword and Board is a hobby store stockist, if you would like to have a look at what products we stock, we have a webstore on: https://swordandboard.co.za/
In a nutshell we stock Games Workshop game systems: Warhammer 40,000, Age of Sigmar, Kill Team, Warcry and others. You can also find Star Wars Legion and Infinity on our shelves. We also stock many other stand alone boardgames.
We also do many Trading Card Games: Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and more!
Enjoy a small tour through the store so you can see what we have on offer!
We have a massive amount of hobby supplies, from rule books and paints...
... and many dozens of model kits up for sale from many factions and game systems.
Here you can see more model kits and more paints!
And yet more paints! We stock multiple brands. Some brands are liked for their colour, consistency or price.
There is a massive glass display case so hobbyists can see what it looks like when they paint and assemble the models that we stock!
Age of Sigmar Orruks!
A massive Adeptus Custodes army...
... So large that they cannot be viewed all on one photograph. You can see the Telemon Heavy Dreadnought and the Dropship here!
There is also a massive Blood Angels collection. The Custodes and the Blood Angels belong to Brennan Healey, one of the owners of the hobby store.
Here we see even more of the Blood Angels!
This collection includes Firstborn, Primaris and characters from multiple generations!
We have a Lizardman (Seraphon) army here and a custom painted Warhound Titan done by a commission painter (Michelle) of our local hobbyist community.
Here are some Chaos Daemons, many of which can be used for Warhammer 40,000 as well as Age of Sigmar, bar some Characters and a few specialist units.
More Daemons and a top-down view of more Blood Angels, these are for Horus Heresy.

And here we have the heart of the store. The Gaming area where the social side of hobby comes to life! People come here to play boardgames, card games, dungeons and dragons, or to sit together and paint their various projects.
There is a lot of terrain and hobby supplies that supports the various gaming communities and this hall is also used to host many events throughout the year!
This is the start of a store-focussed Hive account for a store that is frequented by a few Hive users that blog about games and events in this location.
@zakludick is helping with the running of this account and blogs a lot about events and battle reports from here.
@xenowolfza and @owen-turner are also at the shop a lot to play Warhammer 40,000.
@lex-zaiya comes to the store to play Blood Bowl as far as I know.
@riesakashiya has not yet visited the store but takes part in community discussions on Whatsapp.
I hope that you enjoyed this post!
Sword and Board will mirror its announcements and advertisements on this blog page and hopefully, over time, the Hive community of hobbyists will grow and we can use this space to post all sorts of interesting things!
Cheers!
