Ulthuan

Thanks guys and general felicitations.

Season’s Greetings to all!

A day late this year, yesterday was a bit hectic.

Thanks for this Musashi and good to see you again.

I like the LSG but those green riders are most impressive, especially their boss!

Thank you gentlemen! Some progress today (Toads), around half the army rebased. Other half remains, a few models require paint. Hoping to break
the back of it with the big Plaguebearer block soon.

My man! Sir! I'm on holiday at the moment and spending it writing new armies following GW's assault on my Walk Between Worlds cavbus uber-cheese. You know what, I'm not even upset. Running people over with ghost knights is an easy way to kill everyone's hobby. Well I hope the holiday was good. I im...

Nice and bright and I like the purple.

Colour balance is really good and I love the throne back in particular.

Loving the Star Lance!

It looks rich and splendid. There are depths to both this and the dragonhide that contrast very well.

I agree, I’ve not seen those archer models so well done.

Your colours are very striking sir.

They do give the unit an original look!

Looking as fine as ever.

Does their list seem good and full-featured for play Tyrren? Given it's not from the core books.

Doing Ulthuan proud!

Wellp, those base adapters finally showed up and they were a wash. They printed them in hard plastic as opposed to the soft plastic they advertised in their video. I was hoping for something that would be easy and damage-free when placing on my old bases. I'm also realizing how different GW 20mm ba...

Welcome back buddy! I hope everything's going alright and we can get a game in soon. If you're stuck for a while in rebasing hell, I can offer movement trays with Oldhammer-sized base slots in them. Mountain Miniatures sells them. Clever. Thanks dude! Yes, a game soon would be awesome. What's movin...

Thanks Daeron.

The site's a little slow for me but it is working. Appreciate your hard work here.

I especially like the Dragon Princes. The standard centres the unit beautifully.

Late to the party here but welcome back Fitzlock.



Oh and I love your Belannaer.

I've never seen a more metallic-looking unit!

You're on! I have all the models to make this army. SA and I were talking about getting a game in so this would be a good opportunity whilst he paints up his new army. The delay is now on me: I need to finish up my Seaguard unit! After several RL months of doom I finally have most of the bases I ne...

Have another welcome.

Nice!

I love him! The creativity, the colours, the whole nine yards.

After all, the goddess of love and fertility, Freyja, attained her magical necklace Brisingamen by bedding the four Dwarf craftsmen Alfrigg, Berling, Dvalinn, and Grerr. Saucy girl! :lol: In general I agree, Dwarfs wouldn't find themselves inherantly uglier than Elves for example. Though there's a ...

Having just popped in to this thread I find the helmets in the last picture interesting.

Seredain wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 5:07 pm But these are so nice that I don't even think I'd mind watching them pound my silver helms to bits.

How about your Dragon Princes?



As usual, excellent work MoN. I've an especial fondness for the Irongut with the polearm.

Well it's a lot different from WHFB because now all your wizards normally will get to try to cast every single one of their spells every single turn. A out-of-the-box Archmage without any upgrades is going to be trying to cast 4 spells every turn at full strength. I take the point that there'll be ...

Thanks guys. It struck me that spell selection might be more of a priority than in 8th? Having to re-roll doubles in particular complicates things. Seredain's list for example has Lvl 4 Silvery Wand plus Lvl 2 Lore Familiar and I suspect he's not the only one. It reminds me of Lord Anathir's build u...

Thanks guys. That's what I thought but good to get confirmation from those who know more about this game than I currently do. There must be some interesting phases based on repeat casting. To add in the page reference: BBB p 319, the italic text at the bottom of the page: "Note that wizards in ...

A wizard rolls and retains the spell Fireball (for example). A second wizard from the same army also rolls that spell. Can he keep it?

I've a sneaking suspicion we'll be seeing a whole lot more of these in people's armies now.

Seredain wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 10:04 pm after that I'm game!

Splendid!

This depends on The Cavalry Prince finding the time. He is a busy man with babies!

the winter storms in the area of the NA warehouse have a death toll What is it with the damn weather? Even here (and of course in a lot of countries) there's a storm every week or two and a few people die sadly. Not yet, starting to hear about store stocks coming in. Fingers crossed. What are your ...
