Paint scheme for my Night Goblins 4th Warhammer Fantasy Battle army

And so it begins! I have finished a multi year side project of painting a 1,000 Warhammer 40,000  Rogue Trader Bad Moon Warband in the style I would have painted it back in the 90s but with improved painting techniques. Somehow I have decided start working on a Night Goblin army for Warhammer Fantasy Battle […]

Dungeons & Dragons – A Date with the Devil – Chapter 8: Epilogue

DM Notes: This is the end of our current campaign, but it is actually game number 17 with the same heroes as I like running shorter campaigns. My wife is currently in Italy so all my players were remote for this game so I decided to make a Theatre-Of-The-Mind style game with more skills challenges […]

Dungeons & Dragons – A Date with the Devil – Chapter 7: Broken Hearts in Heaven

DM note: So… the goal for the party last game was to open a portal to Mount Celestia from Phlegethos to allow the Fallen Angel Azrael to bring through her partner from her angelic days: The Angel Arcon. They did, but being in the middle of a hairy battle with two dragons and endless Kobold […]

Dungeons & Dragons – Kirin (Darksword Miniatures)

I know Kirin in Dungeons & Dragons are large creatures, but these smaller Kirin from Darksword Miniatures are simply amazing minis. Their regal and calm pose is just lovely.

Dunegons & Dragons – Thief of Hearts (Darksword Miniatures)

If you are a regular here, it should come as no surprise that I love Darksword Miniatures! Absolutely one of my favourite mini manufacturers. However, I must say this Thief of Hearts is not my favourite. It was very hard to put together and the details are not as great as on this other Angel […]

Dungeons & Dragons – Cyclops (Meeplevault 3D printing)

This Cyclops was a Christmas present from my wife alongside this Ettin from the same company. But I only just got a chance to finish it in time for a game with my niece and nephew. I think the Ettin was more fun to paint and the result was better, but I am still happy […]

Dungeons & Dragons – Valkia the Bloody (Games Workshop)

I’m using this Games Workshop Chaos champion as a Erinyes, a fallen angel type devil. I am mimicking the skintone I am using for my Planatar Angels to hint at her celestial heritage. Erinyes with a Planatar Angel.

Dungeons & Dragons – Chaos Sorcerer Lord (Games Workshop)

When you look at the Chaos miniatures from Games Workshop, I think some of the Chaos directions lean more to Devils and some more to Demons in Dungeons & Dragons terms. Khorne for example leans towards Devils, while Nurgle leans towards Demons. This mini here is for Tzeentch and I think with the horns it […]

Dungeons & Dragons – How to set up a dragon encounter

Inspired by a youtube video I recently saw on dragon encounters I made one for our current campaign and I am pretty happy with how it turned out. Here’s how to run it. Note, this encounter is designed to be tough! When I ran, it one of the heroes almost died. Threat, treat and timer […]

Dungeons & Dragons – A Date with the Devil – Chapter 6: Gateway to Heaven

DM notes, I wanted to dial up the danger level of our game to challenge the players so I planned a game of epic encounters with new unfamiliar challenges, one being an invisible foe, the other a flying foe.  Really happy with the result, although we cut it a bit close with one hero failing […]

Bebbie's Bar

Dungeons & Dragons – Bebbie’s Bar – Chapter 2: What A Shit Show

Bebbie had landed “Here Today.Gone Tomorrow”, the interplanar tavern in the middle of a celebration. It was a celebration of the end of a war and a tavern full of drinks and coziness was just what the war-tired people needed. The tavern was packed and the Staff was running around serving the happy patrons and […]
