Reviews....Scenery and SAGA

Image
Hey folks, i have made two quick reviews. The first i look at the supplement for the Viking Age for SAGA. Click Here for Review   Secondly, is a review for some great plastic scenery from Warlord Games (tabletop workshop). I stumbled across them while looking at warlords new castle and they caught my interest. Especially the fact they also had internal detail. So i picked one up. I was so impressed i brought some others and thought i'd share my thought on these fantastically well thought out pieces. You can find them here . Click here for review  I have also got round to finishing of my Frostgrave warband. With the last few painted, my starting warband is complete.  And finally got to havea go at Gaslands from Osprey games, and it was great fun. A very well thought out system, that you can have some fun with. Below is some images of my van. Till next time, dha weles!

Quick update on things i'm painting. Currently i have been working on my LoTR and getting into painting some more bits for Frostgrave. Eowyn from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG Here i have painted up Eowyn, though unarmoured she does provide a useful cheap to the force. Eowyn from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG Radagast from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG While getting back into Frostgrave i decided to paint up some wizards for another warband Radagast from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG Saruman from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG Who better to be a wizard master than Saruman Saruman from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG Finally getting through my numerous Rohan for my infantry force. Plastic Warriors of Rohan from GW's Lord of the Rings SBG And finally some proper Frostgrave. An infantryman and my wizards creation, Thomas, a wooden construct. Plastic Frostgrave soldier and metal large construct. Plastic Frostg...

  Well, hey folks. Its been a while, but I have a new report. Yes I have finally posted a SAGA version 2 report. Its a bit longer than usual as I discuss some of the changes as they pop into my head, which, as you can imagine, is at random points! Click here for theBattle Report   So what else have I been up to? Well, I have been trying to organise some fun events at the club. I mean its open for 12hrs so there's no excuse for some big games. So to start with on May 27 th , I will be running a friendly SAGA tournament. Just a small one so old and new players can learn some of the new rules. It will be a 4pt event, which include some random doubles thrown in. This will be a good test to see how the new rules stack up, as we should have a mix of forces. Also it will be good to see if the game stays balanced at 4pts too. I was going to take my newly painted Cornish/Welsh warband but... other players are taking the Welsh, so for the sake of testing the ne...

New SAGA..

... well the book has finally arrived and i am pleased with what i have seen so far. I will do a full review on the new book and the the Viking supplement, but i want to give it a good read first.    In the mean time, wanting to get some dark age action going i have a Lord of the Rings battle report, well, the LotR rules anyway. Still a favorite of mine for Skirmishes, and i think i will try to get a small campaign to play for some small game fun. Click Here for Report  Talk soon... dha weles!

I  have to say this does mean i am in the mood to paint a few more of my Cornishmen, though whether they will all be painted in time is another question.
