Five Leagues from Gotburg - Part 1

It's batrep time.

Let's delve into this dungeon, son!

The next project to complete is my 15mm Hero Quest dungeon. I really want to start playing with my oldest and this winter we're going to roll some dice! The floor tiles are made from styrofoam while most of the furniture is 3D-printed. The miniatures are classic Demonworld, of course. 

  

Let's add some characters III - the bad guys

Some more characters for Talisman, HeroQuest and other RPG needs. This time it's the villains - Chaos Warrior, Witch Elf, Dark Elf Sorceress, Assassin and a lonely Skaven. They may grow in numbers and form warbands of their own in the months to come. All miniatures by Demonworld, Microworld Games and Splintered Light.

 

 

Let's add some chararcters II - the good guys

 Back to topic - that means 15mm scale, folks! 

I managed to paint some more fantasy guys that can be used for RPGs, the good old Talisman or Hero Quest board games or just for my skirmishes. New additions are a druid, a swashbuckler, a paladin, a wizard and a wood elf. All miniatures are Demonworld miniatures, except the swashbuckler who is from Blue Moon. 

 

 

Let's add some characters

I've been knee-deep in 6mm for weeks now. From time to time I threw in a single 15mm to get a liile change of pace. This way I will build up a collection of fantasy characters for Hero Quest, Talisman, Runebound and RPGs in general. The first five are finished now: The Ranger, the Wizch, the Wizard, the Dwarf and the Warrior. If I want to complete a 15mm set for Talisman there's only 45 more to paint! ;)

The witch is from Blue Moon Miniatures, the rest is Ral Partha's Demonworld line.

Is this some sort of peasant joke?

These Demonworld chaps are sold as "peasant militia" by Ral Partha Europe... but one of them screams "thief" and another "monk", I think. They are great sculpts however and I enjoyed painting them a lot.

Back from holidays and curious about what you guys did in my absence... I'll have a look now! :)

 

One Page Rules - Age of Fantasy Skirmish Batrep

I tried out Age of Fantasy Skirmish along with their Solo AI rules. I had a good time and will try out their Grim Dark Future game next!

This will be my last post before holidays, have a nice summer, all of you! :)

15mm Empire: We have an ogre - and we will use him!

I always thought I suck at sculpting... Maybe I have improved my skills or it's again 15mm scale that is way more forgiving mistakes. I desperately wanted an ogre for my Empire warband. After some research it became clear that there is none on the market and a conversion would be necessary. I realized that I picked up six of the excellent ogre miniatures from Alternative Armies. I sacrificed a Demonworld chap for the feather and looked through my 28mm bitz finding an old shield fitting size-wise. The rest had to be done with green stuff. I am more than pleased with the final result and will certainly do another one in the near future. An ogre rarely comes alone and I have to other poses left to convert.

15mm Empire Warband

After spending the past weeks to shrink my postapoc stuff to 15mm, I wanted to change for fantasy again. I am continuing to sell my 28mm stuff and redo everything in the perfect scale. I had a nice Warhammer Fantasy Empire warband I painted up in the Talabheim colour scheme. For the 15mm version I swapped the white for black. The colours do not fit any specific region of the Old World, but I like them better now. Using Essex and Demonworld miniatures, I spent a week to paint up 13 miniatures. I guess I needed more than two months to achieve the same in 28mm back in the day. I will only show five per post as usual starting with my Captain, some foot soldiers and my first archer. I will use them as imperial troops in skirmishes or as town guard when I'm roaming the Forgotten Realms. The buildings are all from Alternative Armies.

The Undead Call - Part Four: Night of the Living Dead

The last day of October brings my final undead post. The Necromancer and his zombie minions are lurking in the shadows. Figures are a mix of Demonworld and Alternative Armies. Happy Halloween, folks! :)
