Construction Continues

Lord of the Rings Army of the Dead

In scattered and isolated places across Middle-earth, the dead walk, ever bound to this world by sorcery or curse. Almost all undying beings are bound into the service of Sauron, he who forged their deathless existence. By contrast, the spirit-folk of the Dwimorberg are tied to an altogether different fate. When Elendil marched against Sauron, his son, Isildur, came to the Dwimorberg and obtained an oath-sworn promise of aid against the forces of Mordor from the people that lived there. Yet when Isildur called upon the people of the mountains to fight, they scattered and fled, entombing themselves in their fortress rather than fighting in fulfilment of their promise. In rage at their betrayer, Isildur cursed them to wander the hills for all eternity until their oath was met. To this day, their oath has yet to be fulfilled…

I found these guys on ebay a few weeks back. There were 20 models plus the King of the Dead, who I haven’t painted up yet. This should bring the total number up to 52, which should make a decent ally detachment for War of the Ring or Kings of War.

Skaven Weapon Teams

A few of us have been playing Vermintide lately, a computer game similar to Left 4 Dead but with swarms of skaven instead of zombies. This got me thinking I should revisit some of my old Warhammer skaven. While I’m not sure how effective they are on the table, they certainly were fun to paint up.

Medium Woods

Plaguebearers of Nurgle

Extra Large Woods

Work is wrapping up on the woods commission for Owen. We just need a final coat of glue then they’re off to Indianapolis!

More Woods!

Work continues this week on an order for woods. Lots of woods. 51 trees on 11 bases. We’re trying a couple of new things with this commission including pine trees and XL woods. With any luck we should have this wrapped up by Monday.

Post-Apocalyptic skirmish game “This Is Not A Test.”

On Saturday, two members of The Dale Wardens tried the post-apocalyptic skirmish game, This Is Not A Test. It played fast and has a unique priority/activation mechanic that keeps both players engaged.

We highly recommend you check out the game for yourself right here and help support independent gaming!

Bocage Test Pieces

We’ve been experimenting with some new techniques for making bocage. While it’s taken us longer than we had hoped, the results are very satisfying. Hopefully we’ll have these pieces available sooner than later. Thank you for your patience!
