Given how OP that banner seems how would you deal with a unit of 30-40 while lions with the banner and maybe a character or two thrown in there. We won't be able to use terrorgheist, etherals or a blender lord unless we go without magic weapons and that doesn't seem like a good idea. Most...

The other day I wanted to do a combat reform to face a rear charge that was about to happen but my opponent was very upset by the idéa as he felt it wasn't legal to face away from the unit I was already fighting. I ended up not doing it as neither of us knew if I could but now I want to know...

I have been thinking about using a small unit, 10-15, of ghouls on the side of a larger skeleton unit instead of using a large block of expensive ghouls. The idéa is that the skeletons will outnumber the enemy and the gouls will provide some extra attacks, negate rank bonus and give flank...

I have been lurking around the Empire forum a bit to hear all the latest news and whines about their new book and so wanted to see what you guys think about it. Personally I feel there have been some needed nerfs but also some that are over the top but not so much as every empire player would...

So I am thinking of having a character with this item in a unit what has ward save against warmachines and also magic resistance. The question I have is how do I know if the ward has to be re-rolled when hit with say a magic missile as only the models in base to base with my character needs to...

So I had a game versus WoC today and I though I'd post up a report of it using Battle Chronicler. It was a 1500p game and I will try to tell it as accuratel as I can but some details may be off. Also it's my first time using battle chronicler and I am struggling a bit with it so it might look...

Hey guys. I'm playing a 1750 point battle against Empire sometime during the holidays and I wanted some thoughts and comments on the list. I have played this Empire player 3 times before using variations on my standard magic heavy list and won all three times so this time I thought I would...

Hey guys. I am currently putting together a list against chaos player and I wanted to take some cavalry but I'm not sure if I want blood knights or black knights and as I seldom use either my experience is limited. What do you feel are the strengths and weaknesses of both and which one...

Hey, I haven't really seen a thread like this here so I thought I'd start one. This thread is a place where you can share your way of painting and learn from others. It's not just about what techniques you use but how you go about painting your miniatures, what order you do things and how you...

Hey guys I am looking for a way to make realistic water effects for puddles or small pools. I know there are products you can buy to make water but it seems kinda expensive so I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make it yourself. I have searched for it online with no real success and...

Hey guys. I'm gonna be starting up a small paintlog to show some of the minis I paint. I know I'm by no means a great painter but I figure this way I can get some feedback and opinions and hopefully I can improve. I most likely won't be uploading alot as I am kind of a slow painter but for...

I need some help with what varnish to use and how to use it. I have just ruined yet another model to bad varnishes or maybe lack of skill in using it. The first varnish I tried was out of a pot that I applied with a brush but it tinted the whole model in a milky color... I then tried a...

I recently came up against a Empire player with a character on pegasus with Aldred's Casket of Sorcery(which steals spells and then destroys them) and found I had no real way of defending against that tactic. With it he managed to destroy 2 of my 3 invocations and my wind of undeath. Lucily he...
