Tom suggested that I needed a picture on the flag that told the story of why my army is in exile. I got told off for the quality of the photo but I think the flag is clear!
Orcs, Orcs and Boars
Continuing my theme of Armies of Infamy I have throughout the summer been putting together a Nomadic Waaagh. This felt less mad than the Troll Horde (though I have 27 painted Trolls so not going to rule out doing it at some point!). The basic premise is that everything is mounted. You can have ain’t… Continue reading Orcs, Orcs and Boars
Bretonnian Exiles
The more time I spend thinking about The Old World the more I think the Arcane Journal lists are the way forward. The Grand armies are very broad in their scope and I feel it leads to very odd looking armies. I get that the system is geared towards smaller elite forces and hero hammer… Continue reading Bretonnian Exiles
Pro Acryl and the Bretonnian Duke
On the advice of several people (Brendan and Byron to name two) I bought the Pro Acryl base set of paints. I also had a Bretonnian Duke who needed painting so I decided to challenge myself to to paint it only with the 24 paints included with the set. What do I think about the… Continue reading Pro Acryl and the Bretonnian Duke
Mid July
Under Brendan’s instructions I have entered tournament on the mainland. God bless Patrick who had agreed to suffer my bodged together lists to get me prepped! I am really interested to see what competition gaming looks like out there. It has been some time, maybe 15 years since I battled in tournaments, I think Tom… Continue reading Mid July
June Wrap
As we move into July and apparently the weather turns bad it does mean I can get some painting done. I am endeavouring to find an Old World Tournament to play in. I thought I had a likely candidate but my car needs repairing and is booked in for that weekend! My hobby focus had… Continue reading June Wrap
May Round Up
Been about a month so will round up what I’ve been up to. Been away with work and poorly so less than I’d hoped but not as little as I feared! I started reading my favourite book again. Do people have those/ do that. Every couple of years I reread The Player of Games by… Continue reading May Round Up
Southwight War
Zak at the club had been wanting to try The Old World so got paired up with me. Tom and his filthy Bretonnian Lord and Patrick with his lightning fast High Elf cavalry! Zak and I definitely had the numbers but I think we didn’t make them count! We played the tactic of keeping our… Continue reading Southwight War
The Old World Playing and Painting
I’ve not yet added the mandatory two types of static grass but pretty pleased. He now needs an army to command and an opponent that doesn’t mind that he is a death machine! I know. I hadn’t realised I’d missed it but I completely had. I was playing with a sub optimal Ork list with… Continue reading The Old World Playing and Painting
Dragon Painting and Blood Bowl
The Blood Bowl League had kicked off at the club. My Dwarfs took some licks in their first game of the season. I managed an honourable draw against the highest team value in the league so not too unhappy with that but my Blitzer lost a point of AV and misses the next game. So… Continue reading Dragon Painting and Blood Bowl
