Ok, so trying to get some proper video battle reports together, but so far not much has gone to plan. With three failures and 2 weeks between game its taken a while to get some reports together.  It may be a little while before i can grasp the simplicity of moving pictures.... but until then i still have some other battle reports up. Middle-Earth SBG    So Kirton games has another event coming up, so i am still practicing my 500pts list with Elendil. Still not sure if he is an over investment at 500pts. So here's a game against Mordor: Click here for Battle Report Mordheim   Still getting some games in with my Bretonnians. Now i have a Warlock, lets see if i can win a game! Click here for Battle Report Age of Magic  Finally my new fantasy SAGA rules have arrived and they look fantastic! Generic enough to cover pretty much all fantasy genres while varied enough that i think we will see a lot of interesting things coming from...

To the city outskirts...

Mordheim / Warhammer Fantasy   After Drustann's last run in, his warband has made it to the outskirts of the city, though in need of a place to settle he runs into an opposing warband... Click here for Mordheim Battle report  Though with spoils to be gained i have started to look at future additions, in this case a Hired Swords. Though not sounding very Bretonnian, i couldn't help but add in a Warlock.  Meet Elanor...  Lovely model and now, my first character for my Bretonnian Army. Middle-Earth   Still painting to get some companions done for Thorin so i now have Dwalin to add to the mix. It seems like Kirton Games is holding another tournament on May 11th which may be attend-able. So some more MESBG coming up soon!

Mordheim    So finally back into playing Mordheim. Forgot how much fun it is putting a warband together and my Bretonnians were no different. My first game on the outskirts of Mordheim.. against Ogres! Click Here for Mordheim Report. Warhammer Fantasy    With the painting of my Bret warband, i have been enjoying the look of the figures. In fact i am now working on some figures so we can play some old 6th edition fantasy with the "warhammer warbands" rules, to run a small escalation event. Hopefully getting a few other folks involved. Early plastic Bretonnian bowman  including a metal figure in the centre. Middle-Earth    Just to finish off, i have been working on some Hobbit figure. I wanted to try a new style of warband with all heroes and thought that Thorins company would be fun. So i brought the plastic set and started working on them, with currently only Thorin finished. This model was to have alternative ass...

Final event games and a finished warband.

Middle-Earth SBG    So i have the final two games up from the Kirton Games event. It was a cracking day and i'm now hyped for the next one! Whether i use Numenor again, we will see but Elendil mounted was great fun to use. Click here for Game 3 Click here for Final Game Mordheim    I have been painting like crazy (well, for me!) recently and have mangaed to finish off some more models for my Bretonnian warband. I now have my starting warband complete and Drustann of Treburg will soon be taking to the streets with his retainers.  My starting warband will be 8 models. Drustann, 2 knights Errant, 3 Squires and 2 bowman.  Bowmen henchmen  Knights Errant  Squires Here are the Men of Treburg That's it for now, till next time!

Middle Earth Tourney and some Mordheim

Midde-Earth SBG   So i finally made it across to Kirton Games and took part in their one day 500pt tournament. It was a blast and the venue was fantastic. They are based in Crediton (Devon, Uk), well worth checking out if you can make the trip.  In the end i took my Numenoreans as really wanted to try out a mounted Elendil now i have one! So game 1 and 2 are now up: Game 1 Battle Report Game 2 Battle Report Mordheim  I hope to have my Bretonnian warband up for next club meet in two weeks. I have finally finished my Questing Knight and a couple of men-at-arms. I love the pose of this model and the fact he's a lefty. Hopefully more soon!

ME SBG and Mordheim

Hey folks,                 Getting some more stuff painted. Finally have Elendil finished off. I am pretty happy with the result... i mean you know who it is, but there are things i will change for the next time (if i do him again).  Also finished off some Rohan Royal guard for somebody, which should now leave me some time to paint for myself for a while, especially as Kirton Games tournament is coming up next week.  I have the two Middle Earth battle reports up: Click here for final tournament game Club siege day overview   Finally i'm trying to get back into the Old world and i thought the best way would be to get back into the classic game of Mordheim! This has to be my favourite game out there. it introduced to to the experience gaming, role play side of the warhammer. Thankfully even though i was a youth i spent a lot of my summer money earnings on figures for this, which is grea...

Back to (hobby) work!

  Okay, back into a paint schedule of sorts... well trying to be.   i have managed to complete Eomer for a friend, while working on a conversion of my own, mounted Elendil. I'm not big on sculpting but wanted to give it a go, the results you can see below: Got some more battle reports. SAGA and Lord of the Rings. Click here for SAGA report Click here for LotR report   Finally i'm going to end with a paint tally, i'm going to add to it each time i finish some figures and see how i do over the year. But also see what takes preference, gaming wise. Work for other people i'll add, as it takes up my painting time anyway, and will keep that under commission work. So till next time, all the best with whatever you'r gaming. Dha Weles! Commission Lord of the Rings - 1
