Pretty close. I don't know why, i just have this picture in my head that he, at least once, used a sword during the show. Also, Peter Cullen needs to do more villains.

Here goons, have some conversions;   This is my Small Construct!  My Witch/Druid found the husk of some native beetle that had succumbed to a parasite (the stump on his back). Imbuing his magic into it, it now acts as a mobile bag! This is my Imp!  Summoned from the realm that exists between life and death, this creature acts on the most powerful impulse that inhabits all living things - the must to survive. Since they're supposed to be smaller than a man and I have no idea where to find 20mm rounds, i just clipped the bases you get in the warband boxes to size. I felt better about using green stuff this time around! Using a different mixture was a big help and i realised that i need finer tools. Also, i need wire for armature next time, since the tree didn't want to stay upright =S

Just had a skirmish game over vassal and it was some fun! Grenade is money, killing a bard and an apprentice on a crit, turning him into mist. His force was half strength but i still lost because, he got treasure off the board and i didn't =(

According to Dakka, Northstar are releasing a set of female soldiers for Frostgrave in a couple of months. I wonder how much interchangeability there will be between the other box sets or, if they're going to be their own unique thing?

Recently got a hold of the Cultists and Gnolls!      They're both slightly more fiddly kits but for different reasons. The Cultists are fiddly, because you need to cut left hands off to attach different ones. Nothing Revell plastic glue doesn't solve, though.       The Gnolls, on the other hand; two of them are separated at the waist, so you need to line them up to not look off and the heads don't have the greatest range of motion. That said, though, they still come together quite well and hell, who else sells multi-part gnolls in plastic?

spectralent posted:Ah nice, so there's no expansion rules or anything? There are books for extra missions, items and new soldiers. There are no rules for factions - use what you want! The intent of the system is that you can make a force with whatever models you want. The reason i'm sticking (mostly) to the Osprey line is because, they're nice, simple minis that I can enjoy painting =) The guy from Epic Duck Studios made a force using Reapers Mouslings. It's cute as gently caress =3 Irate Tree fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Feb 12, 2018 |

LashLightning posted:Bronze-age civilizations have been mentioned to exist in parts of the Archipelago. The warring Drichean are named, and they've had a metal "test piece" made that they've given out with the Nickstarters for Ghost Archipelago and now the recent Snakemen plastics. Apparently they'll be getting a plastic set themselves, as will stone-aged "tribals", at some point. That sounds all kinds of awesome. I didn't end up picking up GA yet, since i wanted to focus on my FG dudes.

Crossbows are great as a static gunline but if you need to start moving anywhere, it might get a bit tricky. Especially if the other wizard starts throwing up walls of fog or whatever. The thieves, while quick, don't lend themselves well to fighting and will always inflict one point less in damage. I know the intent is to not fight with them if you can help it but the opposing player will find ways to get to grips with them. Also, I believe you can only have one type of summons on the board at anytime; one Imp, one demon, one zombie, etc. But also, basically what Vitamin P said; Frostgrave isn't a hyper competitive game like, say, WarmaHordes, it's more of a "lets go on an adventure and die horribly!" sort of a game, like Mordheim! That's how I look at it, at least

I had been collecting Warhammer 40k and Fantasy(RIP) for almost 20 years and the Frostgrave plastics are just a nice, refreshing change for me. Simple, straight forward, no gross amounts of detail while still being characterful and no fragile, sticky-out bits to break - just fun little minis

Shouldn't have need for anymore for a century or two.jodai posted:Has anyone tried the mecha variant that is in the second Frostgrave magazine. I just heard about it today, I'm pretty interested.

Was trying to decide what size of base I should stick a boar on, which led to a little research on the animal. Boars can get bloody massive! They can reach up to 80cm - 120cm in height, up to the shoulder and over 5' in length, weighing anywhere from 90kg to 220kg, depending on the species. I think a 30mm base will suit him well.

You're not wrong. I'm always left in awe, every time I see some of the larger crocs. Just that realisation that - if you met this thing out and about and it didn't like the look of you; that's it, you're done.

If anyone was interested; I came across a company that seems to do 28mm dog miniatures (that aren't german shepards and pugs) that look to fit on 25mm bases. https://footsoreminiatures.co.uk/collections/picts/products/picts-scots-warhounds https://footsoreminiatures.co.uk/collections/picts/products/pict-scots-handler-and-warhounds I think I'm going to order some at some point in the near future. Edit: Also, this sword and board lady is drat fine. Love the fur-trimmed cloak about the shoulders. https://footsoreminiatures.co.uk/collections/late-roman-romano-british-early-byzantine/products/lady-guinevere Irate Tree fucked around with this message at 14:23 on May 6, 2018 |
