Branching Out

Ah, the Marauder Treeman, so wonderfully chunky and so easy to paint that even a teenage Wood Elf commander could use it to bulk out his little army.

This used to be my treeman (used to be)
This used to be my childhood tree
This used to be the monster I ran forward
Whenever I was in need

Times change (I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air, etc) and now these poor saps have been demoted to Treekin,

Call The Copse!

Fresh from their hiding at the hands of Kraken's Chaos Gribblies, here come the dryads!

Hi everybody!

King of the Hill: Vikings vs Anglo-Danes

On the same evening as our latest SkypeBoot, and as a change of pace from Age of Sigmar, we decided to play a skirmish game with a low model count, deceptively simple ruleset and faction-specific augmentations.

Pack up your horned helmets - we're off to the Viking Age to play SAGA!

Bagsie I get to play Kirk

Hedge of Darkness: Sylvaneth vs Chaos Mortals

Well, our first Age of Sigmar battle worked out pretty well. Now we're going to push the limits and see if it was a fluke.

Tonight, the arboreal guardians go hunting monsters in the deepwood - Forest Spirits against Chaos Monsters!

Picnic time for teddy bears...

Special Branch

There's nothing like an upcoming battle to spur me into painting. Tomorrow, my Wood Elves (*ahem* Sylvaneth) troops will be taking on Age of Sigmar, so I duly abandoned my Night Goblins and picked up my previously-abandoned Dryads.

Upcoming: The Battle of Big Big Horn

Mierce Me

In the Grim Darkness of the Seventh Century A.D.

There is only Moody Posing

Age of Sigurd

A quick retreat to the Age of SAGA this week, in advance of a match next week. Time for a change of pace from 40k for a little, a felt, and indeed GW products. Also because who doesn't like Vikings?

Err, medieval monks? Anglosaxons? Probably quite a long list, actually.

Squaddies

More for the Crypt Angels this week!

Battle Report: Age of AoSBoot

Say, I hear there's this Age of Sigmar game that's caused a bit of a stir.

With deep breaths and a certain amount of trepidation, Kraken and I took to Skype - battle report and first impressions will follow...

It's an Oldsmobile reference. Don Draper would love it.

War of the Triple Crown: Chaos Civil War

"Faster, you imbecile! The skulls won't load themselves!" Cogar snarled.

Unit Filler: "Oops!"

There are some who regard unit fillers as a way to bulk out units and avoid painting models. I think I've gone the other way: I removed 5 already-painted night goblins from this regiment just so I could fit in my little diorama.

"Hey, I found your arrow!"

Hard Tac

Well, I couldn't afford Age of Sigmar, so I just painted some Space Marines. Who can tell, amiright?
