A few bits and pieces left over from the #Frostgrave Demons set plus way too many #Oathmark heavily armoured dwarf infantry figures …

Therefore, I spent yesterday evening making these nasty little beasties.

There’s a modular log fort and if it proves popular then there are a fe other things I'll add to it.

Can also be used for renaissance, FIW, pirate stockades... Indeed, there are lots of uses 👍

An overhead view of the fort from the front. There’s a gate in the middle of the front wall with a tower on either side. It’s square and there is an Empire hero in the left tower wondering where his garrison has gone. A low down scenic shot of the fort about to be attacked by orcs. There’s a blue/grey backdrop and trees on both sides. The Empire hero is glad his garrison came back as he does t think he’d be able to hold off the orcs on his own. A low down view of the front of the fort whilst it’s being attacked by orcs. A couple of ladders have been placed up against the walls in the vein hope the orcs can actually climb them without arguing with each other. Another scenic view of the fort protecting a small river ford. Blue/grey backdrop again with verdant grasslands on either side of the river.

Afternoon everyone 🙂 I've made another little promo post over on OSHIROblog and this time it's about the sci-fi ranges I do.

There’s a large gallery of piccys at the bottom if you get that far 😁

A cluttered view of my Nevarro gaming board. Lots of grey buildings on a grey tabletop. There is an imperial banner flying proudly over the city gateway. There’s a white shuttle in the background and lots of gubbins dotted everywhere.

An overhead view of my Victorian riverside set up. The Thames is at the bottom looking very silty, there’s a tug docked against the side with a large warehouse behind it. In the right is a boats workshop that has a surrounding wall. On the left is a Fairburn crane on a stone plinth and behind that is another warehouse. There are a few bits of scatter placed here and there but the photo was taken before the game started so there’s no figures.

Did you know about Severn Bore?

It's an amazing local phenomenon. The funnel shape of the Severn Estuary and high tides combine to produce a wave that surges up the Severn, travelling as far as Tewkesbury.
