As I prepare for our next campaign game this Sunday, I managed to get ahead of one of the upcoming scenarios, with the completion of some Null men.
These are some of those figures which were never made & thus some proxies were needed. While observing the facebook site, I noticed someone mention using the Doppleganger figures from Nolzur's line.
I also noticed these ones called Blights which I thought could work as well.
Now reading through the scenario, there wasn't a lot of info on colouring except to say, that there was a grey glow emanating from them. Below is my results.
If I was to get more, i think I would just go with the Dopplegangers.
I also finished up a Reaper Bones Werewolf to add to the critter horde.
Lastly for this post, one of the Kickstarters I supported had arrived. The Gardbuk Shrine by Studio Level.
All of these pieces came painted & ready to go right out of the box. They were seriously wrapped in plastic wrap to ensure nothing was bouncing around.
The set has 4 ruins.
A small mousepad playmat.
And several rocky outcrops with some trees (provided) which can be added. They have pre-drilled holes, however they need to be made a little larger to fit the trunks.
The terrain is covered with patches of snow & I find they did a really great job with the scree & rubble
Not normally one to go in for 'seasonal' terrain, I am quite happy with this one.
If there was one thing I would change, it would be to 'not' use the small vegetation bits & just leave it rocky. If those who wanted to add that type of stuff, they could easily do it after the fact.
Thanks for dropping by!
Unlike the weather, I have not had a shower of painted miniatures & looking back, it was in April that the last figures I painted were added to the blog.
Certainly not a planned event, just seems to be a great many things which have prevented me from getting some paint time.
However this past Sunday I managed to get 4 more figures finished & off the paint table, where they have been languishing.
I think I've had some of these figures for a very long time.
The Conan Barbarian figure is I believe an old Citadel model from the 80's. Also painted up were a Ranger, a Robber Knight & a thief.
As I am still picking through the stuff on my paint table, I will leave you folks wondering what I will showcase next.
Thanks for stopping by!
Last Sunday we had our sixth game of our current Frostgrave Campaign. This time we finally made it to one of the Breeding Pits!
The scenario was out of the book, with the addition of the following mods.
1) If a creature spawns from picking up a treasure it will be gnolls. Roll on the Gnoll chart to determine what spawns.
2) The 2 pits in the centre of the area are drawing air into them. They are for all intents bottomless. Anyone or anything entering them is gone. The downdraft also draws any FOG spells towards it. Moving them 1d4" per turn. As soon as the end of a fog cloud touches the hole, it is drawn into it & removed.
3) We had Random Encounters each turn as usual. When the entry location was determined. A D6 was also rolled. On a 5 or 6, the creatures spawned on the walkway above.
We had 5 warbands pitted against each other this game.
Yhegda - Lvl 14 Witch
