AMBUSH!!

-

 been cracking at painting my fantasy miniatures lately and
dug out my orc warbands and had a little confrontation
with two of my favorite warbands that i've done.
using Fistful of Lead rules this was surprisingly brutal.

the Dragonclaw clan is about to fall prey to the Fel Orcs in an ambush
in the barren wasteland of the Thousand Needles.


the trap is set...


orcish archers place themselves up on the high ground,
overlooking what could be the kill zone.


the Dragonclaw clan is hesitates forward,
and the trap is sprung..




an orc with a spear and shield takes on arrows but becomes shaken and tries to hide it.
even though shaken, the Dragonclaw orc charges in,
but is taken out as a result of incredible dice rolling,
depends on how you look at it.


an Fel orc charges towards the leader of the Dragonclaw clan but it struck
by a magical bolt of fire.
the Dragonclaw orc boss commands someone to attack.
an orc charges in and is overcome but survives.


the warboss of the Fel orcs raises his arm that has a blade on the end of it,
and plunges it into the poor orc and killing him.


the surviving members of the Dragonclaw clan fall back,
to fight another day.

cultists and some sneaky gnomes

to be honest i have not done much since last month. kind of took a gaming break overall, from painting, gaming and even touching a figure. after the last batch of MotU figures and trying to get another unit done for Silver Bayonet done, i was losing my enthusiasm for it. so i'm doing little things here and there. getting some figures' bases redone or small D&D characters done for adventures, but large projects are starting to overwhelm me. i guess my age is creeping up on me faster than i thought.  back in may of last year i purchased several plastic sprues of Frostgrave cultists and assembled them but didn't do anything with them for a while. i ended up painting them a few weeks ago for some encounters for our D&D group. i separated the characters who are armed with a certain style of blades from the others and gave them small shields. i also glued heads with exposed faces or masks on these particular figures compared to the rest i made. some armed with crossbows a

my girlfriend Rita told me the other week that her youngest son joined a D&D school club and we needed to write up a character sheet. we sat and picked a race/class and her youngest Sam picked of all things, gnome barbarian named Hamish. we rolled for stats and filled out all the slots and information for him to play his first legit D&D game. so a week later we were told the person who's running the D&D club is starting the characters at level 3, why i have no idea, you figured new players would start at level 1? so we "leveled up" Sam's character and we played out a small session to get Sam familiar with the basic rules. Breena and Hamish explores the sewers under the city, only to run into a black pudding. from the shadows the a tortle emerges. the ascended dragon, Quirog!   didn't realize how much damage the black pudding, so i added some help to the adventurers. crawling down a sewer pipe, Hamish runs into a Banderhobb. this was a mistake being tha

Knights of Kirin

after i painted my orc warbands for the ORCtober challenge, i pulled together a miscellaneous group of villainous proportion. i had this group painted for a few months, but only now came around to take pics and post them on here. and i figure since i am going through a fantasy themed moment might as well post now. i wanted this group a very mix of characters and races, and what can to be was a group of humans, beastmen, and an orc. Knights of Kirin. Mordek has hired some muscle to aid him in finding the mythical Wyrmrest Blade. some say it is lost forever in time, but forbidden texts reads that a powerful wizard knows the whereabouts of it. a seer of the dark magik, Kirin Tenebris. Malagor, a beastman banished from his tribe. Brak, orc mercenary of the Bad Moon clan Wulfrik, a Chaos champion. Roshakuna, a minotaur who is in service to Kirin Tenebris and also disliked by Malagor.
