New brushes!!

Nothing like new brushes to enthuse a man to paint more. Well, maybe new miniatures.....     .....or the prospect of gaming.....  .....well you get what I mean.

More Glory for Papa Nurgle - Easter Gaming Part 1

Albrecht Griegir looked out into the courtyard where he was to be burned as a heretic. The pyre had not yet been built, but some Nuns had gathered early to witness his death. It was then that Albrecht could not contain the smile that crossed his dry and blistered lips. The nuns in question were ludicrous! His hairy Pestigors and his new human followers had clearly killed the original habit wearers (and left the blood and rips open for all to see). Even the slathering beast that Albrecht had taken as a pet was dressed as one of Sigmar's worshippers; such delightful hypocrisy! How in the Old World, did they get passed the sentries.

Guards came to escort Albrecht to his final holding place. He winced at the brightness, as he was lead outside. His eyes quickly became accustomed to the light. Looking across to the main gate, Griegir realised how his followers had been allowed to enter: the sentries were also badly disguised followers of Chaos.

Nurgle Followers and Foldio

Well, I've been adding to my Nurgle warband ready for more RoC dice rolling on the 7th April. Painting has been a non-entity since the last game, but I have managed some minor conversions for the new arrivals.

In addition, this week my foldio arrived! Here it is:

The Warband Groweth

After our first day of gaming, we collectively agreed that an extra roll on the retinue table was needed, in the hope that games being a matter of who won the single combat in the middle of the battlefield could be avoided.

My new addition turned out to be 4 cultists of Nurgle lead by a sorcerer magus (level 10). This sounded good to me, but then I hit a wall! I could not find any cultist figures that fitted the RoC range. I hunted numerous forums for ideas and did multiple searches on EvilBay (finding one suitable set of figures on a 'buy it now' for about £300!!!).

The Champions Converge!

Today Rab, Malc and myself got together for our first Realm of Chaos warbands gaming session. 3 Warbands had 3 games in the day. Although I will do a more narrative description of future sessions, here is brief outline of todays battles:

The first battle saw Rab's Tzeentch champion ambushing my Nurgle band in a cavern, attempting to steal a scroll he carried. We had minimal scenery, but managed to make do.

The campaign is imminent!

First gaming day of RoC warbands and 3rd Ed WHFB for nearly 20 years today!

Bag packed and really excited. 

Glory to Papa Nurgle

In preparation for the start of our narrative campaign of RoC warbands, here is my attempt at a champion of Nurgle:
