Star Wars Imperial Assault

I have been feeling the force recently, with the release of a new film and playing lots of X-wing. With this in mind i thought i should paint up some of the minis from the Star Wars Imperial Assault box.

Next step is to tackle all the stormtroopers., should give me plenty of practice in painting white.

Funny figure of the great man i have painted for a client.

Holiday Gaming

Managed to get a few games in over the holidays. First game was 400 point Impetus. Nevski Russians vs my brothers Teutonics .

I sent one of my commands on a flank attack and typically it didn't arrive till the last turn. Pretty convincing win to my brothers Teutonic's.

After that we re-fought Quatre Bras using the Blucher ruleset and cards from the 100days set. Great ruleset, think it is pretty hard scenario for the french to decisively win. Ended with the British holding both objectives.

Finally we had a game of SAGA, vikings vs Normans. It was our first 6 point game so we went straight up kill the warlord scenario.

Managed to get a win after a head to head warlord combat.

SAGA battle report

Managed to get 2 games of SAGA in over the weekend against my brothers Normans. 5 points my Vikings against his Normans. First game was a straight up Kill the Warlord scenario.

Initial deployments.

Hearthguard ready for action.

Normans move off the hill.

Sneaky Bezerkers hiding.

Norman knights gearing up to charge.

Battle lines about to clash.

ODIN!!! Victorious bezerkers see off the Norman Warlord.


Second game was the Sacred Ground scenario.

Vikings make an early rush to the hill to start scoring victory points.

Gulp, Normans prepare to remove me from the hill.

Ouch, the melee didn't go so well.

Bezerkers strike again.

Finished off by a crossbow, that's no way for a viking to die, victory goes to the Normans.

Also managed to finish of my final point of Bondi.

After seeing this thread i have been inspired to have a go myself and have bought one of the Revell viking ship kits. Bit nervous has i am getting to the point when i am going to try and waterline her, got myself a circular saw blade for my Dremel that should do the job, will keep you updated.

More Hearthguard

Completed 1 more point of Hearthguard for my SAGA Vikings. That just leave 1 more point of Bondi and i will have the full 6 points painted.

Managed to get the first game in against my brothers Normans the other weekend. Spent most of the game trying to learn the new rules. Think we got most of it right. Really enjoyed it, seemed fast and lots to think about with the battleboards. Plan to get a few games in over the festive period,

Also completed some ancient Lusitanian's  for a commission.

Frostgrave Commission

I have just completed painting some of the Frostgrave figures, including some of their Wizards as well as a box of their plastic henchmen.
