Updating Legion to MkII (Video)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZyg80HfF9E

Here’s a quick video featuring the Legionnaires, Warmonger and Blighted Archers I painted to max out my units. MkII introduced a bit of a problem for me in all of my factions had units that were between min and max sizes, but MkII only allows either max or min units. I also show off the [...]

Strider Officer, Musician and Deathstalker

I’m planning a super-campaign at the moment that combines the results from several smaller campaigns into an overarching narrative storyline. Scourge Bringer and Frozen North are the beginnings and the Legion of Everblight are at the centre of it all. I’ve been updating my Legion forces to get them ready to fight and the Striders [...]

I got a chance to paint up the new (2009) sculpt for Skarre a couple of nights ago. It took about 4 hours to paint, but if you painted more areas the same colour or had fewer highlights it could be a lot faster. Here’s a quick step-by-step painting guide. Undercoat I used Gesso to [...]

Kommander Sorscha Kratikoff: Painting Guide

I’m finishing off a few models before my Christmas project. First up is the new Kommander Sorscha from the plastic Khador Battle Box set. I converted and painted the Juggernaut into Beast-09 and the Destroyer will probably find its way onto eBay (I have two already). I didn’t put too much time into painting Sorscha, [...]

Frozen North: Vylodectes

Vylodectes is a Unique Warbeast for the Legion of Everblight for use in the Frozen North campaign. Background Vylodectes is a masterpiece of Everblight’s ingenuity. It is a vessel for a piece of the Scourge Bringer, an Orgoth-created weapon with the power to destroy a dragon. The merest touch of even a shard of this [...]

Frozen North: The Spawnings

This is the fiction to introduce a four-player campaign that puts the Legion of Everblight and Cryx in direct conflict. It is a continutation of the Scourge Bringer campaign. This was the third and final piece. Vayl had successfully embedded the other two into creatures spawned in her master’s draconic image. There were several failed [...]

Battlefield in a Box!

As a small Thank You for hosting me for the day in Orlando I decided months ago that I’d try to make Clay a small gift – a battlefield in a box. We used it during the Scourge Bringer campaign. The idea was pretty simple. I knew whatever I brought over to him would have [...]

Skarre vs Saeryn (25pt Battle Report; VASSAL)

Joe and I got a chance to play a game on VASSAL last night. We decided to play a 25pt game with my Cryx facing his Legion. Joe won the last Warmachine/Hordes tournament we had using Saeryn, so he’s well practiced with her. This would be my first time playing Skarre, the Pirate Queen. The [...]
