Re: Do lumineth models rank up on 25mm?

i have some Lumineth infantry and i will try to make an ToW army, as i wanna say byebye to AoS. What i know, is that i converted the Lumi Knight models to Dragon Princes by exchanging the horses heads for metal Dragon Prince´s horseheads and exchanging the elven heads with Dragon Prince´s heads. It ...

Re: Dark Elves released

Heavy infantry needs just 4 models to form a rank. And they require more unit strength in the flank to be disrupted. Most dragon characters won't meet that criteria, making it possible to win against them with static combat bonuses Dragon Characters? You mean you wouldnt attack heavy infantry with ...

Re: The Rings of Power

I do think they kept the suspense of "guessing who was the villain" quite well. Oh yes... i have to admit, that was the moment that saved the whole season for me, cus i didnt see that coming. I liked it! Regarding the Galadriel´s actress being compared to Cate Blanchett or the Elrond dude...

Re: ULTHUAN GETS A MAKEOVER

Agreed! I had another person say on Facebook - at least I think it was Facebook - that forums were outdated; does anyone agree, or is that just tech snobbery..? It depends. I like both, but for their own purpose. For discussions, pics, reading or just scrolling i prefer forums like this, because yo...

Re: Dark Elves released

One thing I noticed is Blackguard are regular infantry vs Phoenixguard's heavy infantry. is there a difference rulewise or is it just a name, that makes the difference? I mean, if you scroll through the Dark Elves list, they have no heavy infantry at all, every infantry is "regular", so n...

Re: A Look at High Elf Rules in The Old World

i am happy with what i see although i have to admit i have no idea about the rules atm. Nevertheless i´m just glad, the Old World is back and i am curious to see what special characters we get. Since Elves are quite old and the Old World is said to take place about 200 years before End Times, i thin...

The only one really looking like an elf is the Galadriel actress and the Arondir guy, but the ...

I know the feeling. Sometimes I'm jealous of people who manage to build a whole army in a year or even less time. While I'm glad to get a few models out. But I enjoy it and it's relaxing and that's all that matters. I must say it helps that I have a solid army done. So I can play without worrying a...

Re: 40k: My Fallen Angels

Thanks guys for your friendly comments. The terrain actually isnt mine, but it´s really cool! I plan to get some terrain stuff too, but more fantasy than 40k. I also try to get something that can be used for both, 40k and Fantasy. I mean, a rock is a rock, be in in the 40th millenium or in the past.

And thanks for the group-shot. I agree that an army video would look epic :) if you ever get one, then let us know. Or if you happen to have a few battle pictures. Of course i have, but they are of rather mediocre quality. 3 weeks ago we did a "Boarding Action" game. I played against Spac...

Re: My Khorne models (40k & fantasy)

Back to fantasy, i did another model for the shelf, as the good old chaos dragons are no more. Yet again, i just wanted it, so i did a chaos lord on a chaos dragon.
