A ‘Giant’ hobby update
Yes, it's a bad pun. Enjoy. This week I finished a Giant. He's both useful for Kings of War (ever since the Kingdoms of Men list includes giants) and for DnD (where we are playing Stormking's thunder right now) so he fills two roles. I wasn't particulary impressed with the Reaper Bones minature when it … Continue reading A ‘Giant’ hobby update
Battle report: Brotherhood vs Goblins
My first battle report on this blog! Though it's not as interesting a battle report as I would have hoped, I'm more than happy to share. Doing so helps me improving the play with my Brotherhood army. Furthermore, I learned that writing battle reports is an art in itself that takes some time to master. … Continue reading Battle report: Brotherhood vs Goblins

Hobby update – June
Remember the multibase slot that I mentioned I didn't like? I've dedided to at least repaint the bases. Begone with the goblin green base layer! The above picture is mid-process.

There's something to be said about the kingdoms of men's characters, so I'll be doing that here. first things first While the first two posts in … Continue reading Improving Kingdoms of Men – Characters
Lord Darvled – Mantica’s own populist
Lord Darvled came to power after the victory over the Abyss in the Edge of the Abyss summer campaign in 2017. Here's the official canon description from Clash '18: "throughout the war against the Abyss, the Kingdoms of Men never faltered" shouted Lord Darvled. The cheers from the gathered crowd almost drowned out his speech. … Continue reading Lord Darvled – Mantica’s own populist
Hobby update – holiday painting
I've been on holiday with the family. Two weeks of relaxing with the kids and wife somewhere in the forest, kinda nice. That said, very little painting has been done during that time. After holidays, I managed to finish my reconnoiterers. Here's the four of them. They still need basing, but I'm pretty happy with … Continue reading Hobby update – holiday painting
