February Week 4

Look at me go, two months consistent blogging. Been a very busy week. Crammed in six games since last Friday and finished the Warriors Sons Pat had chosen a strategy of no None Combat Units giving me full access to the tactics board, this lead to an amount of frustration for Pat but much more…

Back at the Blog

Tom always says that a lot of the blog post out there are the apologies for not posting. I think blogs become that neglected part of the garden that you don’t see unless you wander down to that part and stare sadly at the overgrown area you once cherished! The new plan is to do…

Dwarfs vs Orcs 8th Edition

Now f you find yourself reading here you must know the main hobby occupation is the Warhammer, and specifically 8th edition. 8th is the one I actually had some input into and the one Tom got to manage the making of! So largely that is what we play and what we love! So this was…

Dungeon Bowl

Been looking for a little while for a new project. Dungeon Bowl was cheap on Element Games web site so I thought, well what the heck! I have a fair amount of fondness for the first iteration of this game and have even found some of the elves from my first set! This set instead…

Battles in the North Nottingham Gaming Hall

Orcs vs Orcs, battle for the tower. How exciting is that. Tom has the more aggressive two hand weapon biguns vs my sword and board, later they go head to head. In the tower I have my Ruglud’s Crossbow Orcs. They are a bit dodgy on the rules but I love them and they aren’t…

Back to the Orcs

So I’m back in Green and lining up for Orctober. Though I cant promise that level of focus! This brings me to 14 Orcs for the regiment which is a long way off the goal. Just 26 to go. Also adding this fella in as boss

Azhag is ere!

Been a little while and for that I am sorry. In the mean time I have been on me holidays and painted some soldiers. As the hobby wheel turns and it is always does it brings me back to the hardy perennial of Orcs, not Orcs and Goblins (for my goblin throng is massive) but…

A piece of history

So I only have one of these though in my youth I had loads! I wish the ones I owned were this nice! He doesn’t look horribly out of place with the others which is nice I am going to try and get a unit of 30 sword and board Orcs. Before we move on…

Orc Warriors

OK so the weather is still rubbish and nothing got sprayed. These lads have been hanging around for ages and needed some love! All I need to do now is find some shields on the hall and then locate a load more of these somewhere in the world to make a unit! If anyone out…

Skirmish outside Karak Eight Peaks

Given half a chance I will try and set a game near the beloved Karak Eight Peaks. Grandest of all the holds it has been lost to both Skaven and Goblins over the years. Therefore what better armies for the Triumph and Treachery game than Skaven, Dwarfs and Goblins. I was Dwarfs, Kenton Skaven and…
