Epic LOTR and the final SAGA reports.

Image
  Hey Folks, its been a while. The sunny weather has kept my busy in work, but finally i have the final two reports from our SAGA event. Click here for Game 3 Click here for Game 2   With the results of the event i came away with a "Vagn the Fearless" model. Which i really liked the look of, so i instantly got him painted. I am unsure what to do.. do i look at mustering for some Jomsvike or shall i have him as a prize.... below are some photo's of him. Sorry they are not sharp but my camera seems to be failing me and struggles to focus.   We have also been having a epic day games of Lord of the Rings. We have been doing the old "Castle Duel" scenario, which have done before. Each time we play we adjust the rules and they get better each time. Below are some shots of the battle, plus the rules we use. I would point we use the siege rules for the castles from the blue book, not the new hobbit book, which seems to have removed ...

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!
