Dwarven host grows...

The Dwarven host continues to grow, with a unit of Longbeards added to their numbers last week. I have yet to try anything more than a 500 point skirmish with them of course, but we mustn't rush these things, must we. Here are some photos of the Longbeards. Of course, as a 'gamer I have a genetically driven sense of megalomania, and so couldn't resist the opportunity to show the small but growing Dwarven host in its entirety as well.









I still have to paint Runes on the banners.. I'm hoping that won't be one of those jobs that never gets done. In the meantime, I have some Empire Pistolliers on the painting board: Dogs of War as a Rare Choice, this isn't going to be an ordinary Dwarf army, although it's also probably not going to be a game winning army either he! he!... There is a Dwarf Lord, and a banner bearer too, but.. have I ever said how much I hate assembling those metal figures?

Still, the Dwarven host grows....

  2. Nick.... Those Caesar figures are certainly appealing.. if i hadn't been distracted by these Dwarfs, the next project is a HotT VSF army.. I have the Brits undercoated ready to go.. I agree, so many armies, so little time.
    back to the economics marking.. eewww!!

    Cheers

Jon and I thought we'd try to get a little Great War Spearhead mojo back, so I set up a 1914/15 eastern front game between Russians and ...
