first attempt at making a sheet of paper minis. This is so fun.

If you haven't tried it you should make some.

I've been drawing pig faced orc butts all day

I need to get a real lightbox though... Using the brightness on my tablet screen is a sketchy work around

This dwarven child’s father was killed by a giant hamster and I didn’t bury him in time so he came back as a ghost and haunted his son and he deals with this trauma now as a rowdy 14 year old who finds an armed visitor (right now, a Human Crossbowman) and punches them over and over again.

Meet the Crossbowman ⚔️

A slower draw, a deadlier shot.

The Crossbowman brings high-impact ranged damage to the battlefield. Slow to strike, devastating when it does.

Mordheim weekend begins! My first game was an ignominious defeat - my ninja master fell out of a window and was immediately captured... hoping for better dice in Game 2!

AGE OF WARLORDS BATTLE REPORT
Turn 1: Shooting Phase

A rather lackluster round of shooting for the Normans. Despite a great advantage in ranged weapons, the archers failed to score a single hit on anything. The horse archers were luckier, killing one crossbowman.

#wargaming
The Late Roman Shooting Phase began with the Roman Warlord bellowing an order for the horse archers to shoot then fall back. This order was successful. Checking the range, they were 14" away from the crossbows, needing a 4 to hit, but as they moved more than 6" it was a 5 to hit. Rolling 6 dice, only one successfully hit. Another roll against their armour, which was a 3+, scoring a 5. The arrow tore into one man's armour, sending him flying back and down onto the ground. Whether injured or dead, doesn't matter, he won't fight in this battle anymore. After that, the horse archers fell back 13", their standard movement. The rest of the shooting from the Romans was poor. The norman shields blocked any arrows that fell upon them. With that disappointing finish, Turn 1 was finished, and Turn 2 began.

Also, funniest damn thing. I'm enraptured by Cairn. I did work on Dolmenwood. By all accounts, the Wildwood Manuscripts would make a lovely Cairn type setting.

Alas, Cairn already exists within an implied woodland setting. So it'd be a hat on a hat.

Albeit, it is just about tools anyway.
A map in blue depicting a pastoral rural region within a massif valley. A hooded cultist, a large and moss-wooled troll, a dwarf in its hat, a goatman sorcerer, an elf of deepest autumn, a knight of the jaguar, and a hornet-themed scoundrel. An elderly crossbowman in a green tunic with a large helmet, an elderly woman in a red chaperone and a yellow dress, a viking-type of indeterminant gender looking back on the two elders. On the ground, a very chonky old dog with brown spots. A portly armored fellow with a mace and a sheathed sword, a pointed nose, and a generally dark vibe - sitting atop a weird serpent-faced horse thing with a big snakey tail.

I had one Falcon Knight and a crossbowman as a kid, who both came with the Black Knights set 6059. They're now reunited with their comrades at last! 🤝 ⚔️

It’s not like the crossbowman don’t *try* to avoid shooting their friends, they absolutely do, they’ll reposition so they can shoot around them. But the melee enemies have no self preservation. I kinda like it that way 😄

In Employment today, a group led by Roselia the Sensitive is looking to hire a student for a quest. Sources say the quest involves protecting a foreign crossbowman.

You find yourself sitting next to a buff dark elf crossbowman. They turn to you and say 'I regret nothing'.

I brought my battle box to thanksgiving, so I've been jamming a lot of that with family, and it's a fantastic format to let the old favorites shine.

I made sure to put lots of X/1 creatures in it so pingers could be relevant and my boy Crossbow Infantry could get dusted off!

Tweet asking, who the fuck gave the geonese crossbowman the chainmail booty shorts? The image is a closeup of a medieval painting showing a geonese crossbowman's extremely short and tight chainmail shorts.

I finished off one crossbowman to see if I'm happy with the result, and with a nice shiny hat and a much brighter uniform this will have to do. I completely messed up my first try, getting the colour all wrong so they ended up yellow-brown all over... 🙄
