So, here's the premise: With the Kings of War armada ships in the Mantic Vault, starting the game is really, really easy. A group of friends is interested enough to try it out.

On the Kings of War Forum, Sceleris posted a summary of his 2023 hobby achievements. As I love community challenges, I collected all my hobby finishes of the past year. For veterans of my blog, there's nothing new here, just a summary of all hobby related stuff of the past year.

Elohi I wanted two hordes of Elohi. Last time I got a trio for testmodels. Since then I got eight more, which … Continue reading November painting
Background (skip if you want straigth to the hobby) Recently, I went to Clash of Kings UK. One of the armies that featured well there, was the Basilean Army from Jonathan Quayle. An earlier version of that list featured on Dash 28. This type of lists can teach one thing: how to play Alpha strike. … Continue reading Kitbashing the Abbess & other hobby
So, I went to Clash of Kings last weekend! It was a great time meeting new opponents, catching up with the guys from last year and I even got to play a couple of battles.
