April 2021 Totals

It's that time of the month again. Time to look back at the previous month and figure out if I've been productive. Miniature-wise the big accomplishment was a few units for Warmaster. I also got my hands on a copy of Cursed City and assembled the 60 miniatures within. The game sold out during pre-order within 20 minutes and to add to the drama, GW has announced there will be no follow on print run. I'm a little saddened by the fact that it appears like there might not be any expansions to this game (since why expand a game that you aren't producing). The miniatures are awesome, and there's a lot that could be done in this space. I'd have loved to see a Ghoul expansion, a Gheist expansion, and various other Undead beasties just to begin with. Oh well ... onto totals.

  • 12 Warmaster Wood Elf Stands
    • 3 Units of 2 Stands of Wood Elf Waywatchers
    • 2 Units of 3 Stands of Wood Elf Eternal Guard
April Totals: 12
2021 Totals: 221

Not as good as previous months, but still respectable.

Warmaster: Waywatcher Rangers

The sneaky guerrilla fighters of the Wood Elfs. The Waywatchers come in smaller units (2 stands instead of three) and have special deployment rules that let them ambush other units. Technically I had 2 units worth, but I split them amongst three. I only realized after the fact that you can only have 2 units in a standard 2000 pt sized army. So I have enough for 3000 pts. Oh well.



 

Warmaster: Wood Elf Eternal Guard

More warmaster units. These are the Eternal Guards. Painted with either blue cloaks or white cloaks so it's easy to tell the two units apart. Mostly these were painted with contrast, which works pretty well at this scale. The key to getting the light blue on the cloaks was too thin the Contrast paints down. These were fun to paint. In game, they aren't necessarily the best choice.
