Like
Ben Nevis recently, my Dwarfy Lead Mountain has just got a bit higher.
The
Hammer and Forge Kickstarter order has arrived!
A Dwarf invasion force of 28mm metal
miniatures for the Hammer and Forge faction supplement, supporting the new Advanced Songs of
Blades and Heroes rules by Andrea Sfiligoi.
There were quite a few Dwarf factions to choose from as the
Kickstarter
hit its various stretch goals between August and September last year, so I went for a mix of 'characters' to supplement the
38
Dwarf miniatures I already have in the unpainted Lead Mountain! Plus I still have a load of
Fightin' Fungi mushrooms to consume.
The postman knocked on the door earlier this week and handed over a large, brown package too large for the letterbox. He knows the score by now. I just got the 'ordering yet more weird stuff' look as he shuffled off on his rounds.
Distributed by
Alternative Armies in Scotland, out tumbled numerous clear plastic re-seal bags of metal miniatures accompanied by the familiar plastic-jingle of slota bases. I'm really pleased with these miniatures. The artists went
for the heroic, high fantasy style of the 70's to 90's and I think they got it
spot on. Full of character and humour.
With so many Dwarfs now, I'm not planning to paint them
in one marathon session! It'll be a case
of painting them as I need them. Although, the Miner Mole Cavalry lad is already
seconded as scout for my Bear cavalry currently on the paint table.
So, here they all are. Fresh out of the box, without
bases attached and in no particular order:
