D&D: Sword of Shannara

An update from RPG Land. A commission piece for family and I wanted to post an update. The following piece is for a Dungeon and Dragons module: Sword of Shannara. The inspiration is from this older module with a picture of a skull castle in a mountain side. All aspects of the mountain were not obviously captured; i.e. the taller mountainsides or the arched entrance, however I had to work with polystyrene I already had and the skull is a light up skull from Halloween decor. The skull was cut in half, the jaw removed then converted into a bridge, glued onto a 18"x24" piece of wood and the skull then magnetized for being removed.

The last image is of the front of the skull removed. I was informed that the inside will be transformed into a multi-level evil fortress in the near future and that the piece was accepted and appreciated.

Team Tournament Practice

The first few turns in our 'Hold the tower' scenario game. Great practice and good list hopefully more practice in the future! The first few turns saw the savage orcs regiment taken down by animosity and left behind by the daemons.

A few images from our team tournment practice game, Chaos Dwarfs and Orcs and Goblins versus Savage Orcs and Daemons. We did end up winning in victory points but we didn't take the tower. The last few turns saw the arock pop, the flesh hounds get taken down by the fanatics being thrown out and the manglers going back and forth... Eventually they got a character into the tower and we had our main units tied up. Just throwing up some interesting pics of a wolf character, enjoy!

Chaos Dwarf Games!

Well after going 1-2 at RockCon and 3-0 at Merry Mayhem and winning a warmup game for Merry Mayhem. i figured i would throw some pictures out. Still working on the Army for The team Tournament in April at Adepticon in 2013. Here are some pictures and reports from Merry Mayhem.

This game 1 was against a VC player. Playing Dawn Attack and a Black knight bus with 3 characters I was in for an avoidance game. Not knowing what magic items the VC Characters had I pitted my Destroyer against them as a delay tactic and the rest of my right flank charging forward as fast as possible. The tactic worked so did chaff characters against the BK bus. Won by the minimum 100pts and onto round 2.

Game 2 Was against the infamous Kevin Bruins. Ruthless with his sub-obtimal beastmen list and level 1 death mage I felt bad. My first round put wounds on his Mino Character and almost made his largest unit panic off the table. The second round saw that mino character die and the destroyer charge into chaff and eventually around santa's workshop and into his gorgon. This game was tough and Kevin and I skipped to the finish line.

By turn 4-5 I had maneuvered around the building preparing to take charges only to hold and win by almost a landslide....great game wish I didn't take the destroyer at this point....

Game 3 went to Dan Ruud who brought DoC. An all Khorne list basically gave me another free magic pass. I didn't even use the Blood chalice this game and only used it 1-2 turns game 2. I magicked his Blood thirster in 1 round by casting spirit leech, ash storm, and then a DD fire spell at him for 5 wounds total. War machines softened up bloodletters by turn 2 and then blew up turn 3 but the destroyer finished off the bloodletter horde and flesch hounds by turn 5 racing over to help the Chaos Dwarf Warriors(infernal guard) if things got mucky with the other unit. Had a great time and will bring a softer list next time. I thought by the end of it I may have been affecting other scores by bringing what I did.

Merry Mayhem Army of the Month

Daemons of Chaos! This army came through at Merry Mayhem December 2nd I know Johnny Hastings won the champion of the brush but I had to throw this one in. I really feel it presents alot of new conversions and great color schemes along with a display board that ties it all in.
