Re: 2000pts Dark Elves first attempt
Hey Kitengel - first of all - welcome! There are lots of better list builders here, but I thought I offer my thoughts! First off, being fluffy, I'd love to know the background for your army - who they are, and what their story is, just as it may explain some choices or rule out some suggestions! I l...

Re: Clockwork's Eternity Elves!
Lovely conversion work and there's a super shimmer to the armour. Thanks! It's actually super-easy to replicate. Heavy drybrush of Leadbelcher on black. Then a wash of black, and once that's completely dried (give it a couple of hours at least), a medium-light drybrush of runefang steel. Thanks - t...

That wall of horses is mental - awesome work. Twenty Warlocks would be such a beast of a unit.

Re: [PLOG] Veysha Everkiss and the Clan of the Shadow Fox
Quick illustration of the slow progress! Inking the RXB's tonight before painting the gloves tomorrow. Good game from the Arsenal today, meaning MOTD2 will be worth watching, and the Superbowl... might even get onto their base coat for the faces with so much background noise to work too! I thought I...

Re: Fitting Tyrion into 2,000 pts
Thanks - good point! Think I will give it a go. Looks like the next few months I'll only be playing against Beastmen and WoC, so warmachines not a massive issue, though I wish I could get a scroll or extra level on the sorceress... Maybe shift her to a steed?

Re: [PLOG] The Realms of Kar Amenti.
Super update - the unit looks dramatic and has a super unity, and symmetry. The bather is terrific in there - awesome to commit an exclusive model to your vision and pull it off so nicely.

Wow! So much incredible work since I last swung by! The cat is terrific - it was my favourite until I saw the mad bathing cauldron BSB - superb model and conversion. What model is that? I'm a big fan of the Shades too. Especially the fourth up with the spiked club and sword on her belt. I do think t...

Re: [PLOG] booah invasion 2015
As noted by others, the speed and quality together are incredible - kudos! That shade of green is wonderful and I love the energy you give it with the vivid highlights. The wooden boards under the bolt throwers are lovely too. Fantastic army shaping up, all feeling superbly coordinated.

@Marchosias - Thanks for the comment and thought (and again for introducing me to Battle Chronicler!). Dispelling the Transformation would have been hilarious, though the target was quite high!

Fitting Tyrion into 2,000 pts
At the end of last year I included a special character in a list for the first time I can remember... the results of the battle are here http://www.druchii.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=76385 . The power was kind of seductive. And I wondered if it might solve another issue. I started painting my army ...

Re: Battle Report; 3000 pt Beastmen vs. Dark Elves + Tyrion
@TD Just not sure how to fit a 700pt Veysha into a 2,000 or list... Maybe take a Lv3 Pegwitch with ward save, then that's all the character points. Must have the 2x 6 Shades and 9x COK's as they're nearly painted. Then just core... 2x 12 WE's and 2x 5 Dark Riders. Would that work? No Warlocks... @Dr...

@TD - love the quotes. Re: that Mountain Chimera, without (a) Tyrion (b) him charging straight at him, I'd have been in trouble. It's stats are wild and Veysha's build is anti character - it would have gone through her and the whole unit. I've no idea how I'd have stopped it. I think you'd mentioned...

Re: Battle Report; 3000 pt Beastmen vs. Dark Elves + Tyrion
Thank you! @Amboadine - Yeah! It was somewhat harsh on the Kharibdyss... if we'd played that next turn, of course, he'd have had all sorts of fun. The aggressive start felt like a real gamble, but even two minutes after making the decision, seeing his panic, I knew it had been the right one. Our van...

Re: [PLOG] The Realms of Kar Amenti.
The wintry tones on the Tree man are awesome - looks perfect, with the tortured howl and cold claws. It's a super model... and a Kharibdyss provides the statline if we ever get the WE models taken away from us. Magic work from Heartsbane on the assassin too - love how he fits your army look so seaml...

Re: Converted Druchii Noble.
The sword is a mad mix of awesome and hilarious - very FFvii. Perhaps the mismatched gauntlet sizes are the only thing I'm not sure of. The jagged edge works nicely with all that SDC too - all very rugged. If you were choosing between whip and shield, I'd keep the whip - I think you need the width t...

Battle Report; 3000 pt Beastmen vs. Dark Elves + Tyrion
This is my third "official" battle, and it's taken me a lot of time to get around to writing it up. As a result, it is a little less detailed perhaps than others. It was a follow up fixture to my first battle against Beastmen - http://druchii.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=75997 a bloody rout...

Re: I've hit a slump
+1 to Killerk's point. My last three games all felt good, and I wouldn't have really reflected, until I started writing the battle report and exposed all sorts of mistakes and misplays that crueler dice or better opponents would have punished.

Re: [PLOG] Veysha Everkiss and the Clan of the Shadow Fox
Just a quick note in case people thought I'd disappeared under a train or similar... busy times at work and with the photography are keeping things slow. The Shades have the plates painted on their front armour (silver, inked blue and purple, drybushed - a little dull at the moment, though I wanted ...
