First walls pront on the fortess is done, this time on the max quality preset for the 0.4mm nozzle, which took 3 days. I don't mind the wait for the quality of the print, which is way higher than I expected from fdm, that said.... I really should have done a test print of a single wall...

Printing in progress on the first batch of 2 walls + wall tops. Using the 0.4mm nozzle's 0.08mm high quality preset the print will take the better part of three days. I should have printed a single wall & top to test, though. Not only would that have been done in half the time, I can also...

This kickstarter finally motivated me to pick up an entry level 3d printer. I went with the Bambu Lab A1 FDM bed-slinger. Resin is preferred for minis, but resin is also a lot of hassle, and I really don't have a safe place to put one. FDM's a lot less hassle, a lot safer (still needs some...

I voted for Sun King's entry this time around. The mounted wight king model is already my favorite model in the soulblight range, undead brettonians is always a fantastic theme, the conversion & paint job are very nice, and that basing job is fantastic. Makes for all round just a very lovely...

I'm still working on painting my spearhead. The Elden Ring DLC derailed my hobby progress hard, but now that I've put kindly Miquella and his promised consort in the ground, I should hopefully be able to get back on track? Maybe? I'm not super feeling it, but we'll see. Once I get the...

A bit more on the current state of obr. The balance isn't just a matter of 'strong scrolls but at a premium'. It's also a matter of them being very good at duking it out in a scrum in the middle of the board, but not so good at scoring objectives and battle tactics due to a relative lack of...

Saga of dice discussing the very earliest 4e event results. Too early to draw too many conclusions, the faction packs are new, in many cases people maybe haven't figured out what's good yet, or if they have they don't have the new hotness painted yet, etc. But there are some clear early...

errata & faq update yesterday for the main books - nothing new for the pdfs. https://www.warhammer-community.com/the-old-world-downloads/ I haven't read through everything, but a couple updates that jumped out at me: 1) The casket of souls' "light of protection" bound spell is not cumulative...

The final boss of this dlc is something else, eh? I didn't really notice all that extra difficulty everyone's been complaining about before, but this guy... yeeesh!

Ok, so I fished up the 3e warscroll to refresh myself and the biggest change is that he no longer reduces incoming damage from each attack or spell to 1, and he's no longer immune to instant death, so it's a lot easier to kill him even if he's still pretty tough with 8 wounds and a 3+ ward. He...

gotrek's available only via regiment of renown of just himself, and his warscroll is in the ror document. It's strong (8 health, 3+ ward, double fight 8 attacks 2+ 2+ 2 3 crit mortal), but not as strong as he used to be (no protection from instant death, etc). cheaper than he used to be too...

The death stuff in the legends pile is almost all underworlds stuff. And all the underworlds units look fun and cool and a lot less hasslesome than many of their rules have been in the past? And they've been given, like, really aggressively good points values too? For all I've been saying...

Scions of NuLahmia is our only army of renown so far, and it looks.... well, not good, but interesting maybe. Only allows sekhar, coven thrones, bloodseeker palanquins, vampire lords, dire wolves, and fell bats. But vampire lords can be taken as part of another hero's (even another vampire...

List looks good to me. I'm still comitted to soulblight early for painted models reasons, but nighthaunt is starting to tempt me away from OBR for which undead army to pivot to afterwards. .... In other news: regiments of renown, armies of renown, and legends are up for download, hidden...

Absolutely no rush! Health & real world business has to take precedent.

first draft try at a nighthaunt list: Reikenor Cairn Wraith 20 grimghasts 4 dreadblades Awlrach - general Cairn Wraith 20 Grimghasts 20 Bladegheists (special seasonal retinue) Spirit Guardian (ruler of the spectral hosts, lightshard of the harvest moon) 3 spirit hosts lores: default...

If you previously had heavy hexwraith builds for the various weird gimmicks they had (bodyguard in late 2e, their weird turbo-boost ability in 3e), then if you still want to use them at all then you might want the knight of shrouds for support, since in this ruleset hexwraiths actually have to...

I think you're underselling Kurdoss. Messing with command abilities should be a pretty big deal in 4e, and he is still quite slappy for his points - damage 3 goes a long way - especially with access to hit and wound buffs in faction. Outside of nagash, who's in a completely different weight...

I really like the new black knights now yeah. They're very much the mounted wights they originally were and always should have been. They should be great. Grave guard... yeah, effectively they lost their great weapons. You can still give the models great weapons, but the stat lines (4+...

Wholly within 6" is just too tight for me, from past experience it's not really fun to play an army based around that kind of tactic. Plus, to make that work you'd want two, maybe three of them, and each one is a us$150 model that takes approximately 83 years to assemble and paint, and which...
