Re: Total Warhammer

There is a considerable base of such individuals. Majority of my gaming clicque formed after the release of TW:Warhammer just because it got them interested in certain races and the lore. In most cases they got into armies, which can be easily assembled with AoS kits and separate square bases. We ha...

Re: The Host of Lionstone [UPDATE 28.2.]

Very clever conversions. I also like the sparse snow on bases - gives them a skyrimy feel :)

Where did you get those shields though? They look amazing! (If that had ben answered before I do apologize for not being a dilligent reader)

Re: Found High Elves and Dark Eldar

It would be around 100-120 złotych (PL currency) so the party we're trying to rock here would be quite lavish. I checked courier service from USA to my country and it seems to be even more expensive than other options (ranges from 150 to 250 złotych). So, unless someobe has an uncle who's a sailor/p...

Re: Found High Elves and Dark Eldar

Poland would probably (gut feeling) have the lowest prices of shipping to other countries with our paltry currency. We should do a proper research and compare the prices. I'll sit to my part today, after work.

Re: Found High Elves and Dark Eldar

I'm up for it, but it depends on the cost of shipping.

I'm interested in a RBT and a Phoenix.

I presume my country would be the worst destination -> Poland. Still, I'll double-check shipment fees here in case it would turn out to be the least expensive option.

I'll add my humble opinion to the topic. Some general tips, which you probably already know or others mentioned in this thread: 1. Always have a BSB. Reduces the risk of failing easy tests as well as makes hopeless situations salvageable. 2. Running a monster in your list in 8th edition is a risk on...

True that Rod. Every guild/ noble house in Morrowind had a certain set of skills, which they took under consideration when taking you in/advancing you in their ranks.

Absolutely love how those units look together. Not necessarily uniformitarian, but one gets the feeling like they belong to a single warband (not just because of obvious reasons).

Re: New High Elf army project

The basic design of characters presented on the box can be quite misleading. It does give you some nice bits to utilize in your army. You can even cast some of the pieces to add some character to a whole unit. For example, I'm aiming to make casts of a fish-fin pauldron in order to emphasize the sea...

I used to play some 6th and all I have to say is that infantry (most if not all) was weak when compared to cavalry units. Therefore, if you are going for the aforementioned edition I say they're useless. All they have is a lackluster 5+ AS and fear. No wow for a Rare tier unit. If you're going to pl...
