Left the hobby when I got a Sega Megadrive in 1991ish and its only the New HeroQuest that's brought me back after 33 years. For Kellers Keep I like how 3D Minis have created models to replace the boring tiles (the forge and the hands).

for what they charge for this box they could make it a full starter kit with tomb kings being one of the icon armies for this and give us the arcane journal as well. in fact i would rather an arcane journal for the army over the core rule book in the box. because either way i need to buy an extra book and with boxes this large i would rather the army book be included and i need to buy the core rules seperate. as they are using 2 boxes to do the job of one starter box. but seeing this its looking like a mega pass, skeleton robots is enough undead army for me lol, the only undead in old world i would consider is vampire counts, but they havent released their new rules yet outside of a comprehensive book and i always have waryness buying those as i never use them. so looks like dwarfs for me. plus dwarfs seem to have a lot of old metal and i like me my metal sculpts...maybe its being american and playing with metal things lmfao.

I used to enjoy painting miniatures in the "traditional way" when I would buy one miniature at a time. Now that all of my miniatures come included in board games I just don't have the time or the inclination to give each miniature the attention to detail that acrylics require, enter army painter speed paints. They have been a huge boon in speeding up my painting and still providing me with a finish that looks good on the table.

I dont see the Nuln wash as a waste, it definitely helps to visually identify sections of the model for ease of painting even aside from the actual pre shading element. Also I think it makes a very good white, if we look at 6:26 the bows and shoulder ruff could easily just be left as white instead of trying to paint and shade a white.
@DecrepitGaming28 күн бұрын
Indeed there are reasons to use the nuln oil if only to aid in visually seeing what your painting. You are also correct that with a little bit of forward planing there are areas of some models that you could avoid altogether with the wash. However I am all about getting stuff done on this channel so I rush through things. I do encourage folks with more time to amend my work as they see fit. There is no right or wrong way of painting if the final result makes you happy.

Then I would recommend 3rd party manufacturers for all the bells and whistles miniatures. Anyone who complains that your miniatures are not official is a gimp/simp. Do not be put off the game by the cost, make it work.

I’ve had some decent results using line infantry (hammerers, Longbeards and/or iron breakers) in units of 24... 8x3. You can take up to 4 casualties before you lose the full rank bonus and you get 8 potential attacks at AP-2. This box is excellent value, and everything can be used with a little imagination. Blocky is dwarfs. The current units are so much better than the first generation Warriors/quarrelers.
@DecrepitGamingАй бұрын
The troops in the battalion box look great it’s really the iron breakers that don’t “do it for me “ I am fortunate that I still have a unit of old metal iron breakers in a box somewhere in my shed. Almost time to dig some stuff out. I agree that the battalion box is good value it’s the additional stuff that will break the bank, an example would be your 24 man units which by the way is a great number for a unit. Problem is the £52.50 boxes are 20 strong, so either we are talking proxies or £105 for a unit of iron breakers or hammerers. Starts to get expensive quickly doesn’t it. Not a big deal for some folks but a big deal for others.
@earnestwanderer2471Ай бұрын
I think that when you dig out your old Ironbreakers, and get a good look at then, you’re going to see that they’re not very different from the new plastics. Monopose, smaller overall and still basically just a dwarf in full armour with a bit of beard sticking out. The old metal hammerers were even worse. Absolutely the same model with the exact same pose... repeated. I actually traded my old metals for boxes of the AoS dispossessed dwarfs, and am merrily painting them using more current techniques. The best, in game, waac (🙂) use for the Ironbreaker/Drakes box is to build them as Irondrakes in units of 5, to maximize the number of torpedoes you can take. As far as price goes, remember that the AoS boxes were 10 per, not 20 so you’re only paying £26 per box, comparatively. The bloody things were $55 a box of 10 over here, as AoS models. Last point, you can use thematic unit fillers in larger units or just stick a few odd, appropriately painted, models in. It’s easy to convert Warriors, from the battalion box, to hammerers, for example. The Warriors come with the option of setting them up with great weapons, held in two hands, just like the Hammerers. The only problem is that all the two handed weapons are great axes. But it’s a minute’s work to snip the hammer head off the hand weapons and replace the axe head.

You can definitely make Longbeards from the Warriors in the battalion box. Also, Rangers from the quarreler/thunderer box. I haven’t been able to find any reason to run basic Warriors in any configuration. Core- Rangers, quarrelers and/or thunderers. Might as well give everybody great weapons since, unless you’re using the builds from the arcane journal, you’re not going to be getting many charges anyway. And if by some miracle you actually get off a charge, and have the initiative, and are up against lightly armoured models, you can always claim hand weapons and shield since the great weapons don’t replace the hand weapons. Also, plenty of options to create both lords and thanes from the basic Warriors/Longbeards boxes. Not to mention BSB’s.
