March of the Kriels!

This last Thursday, I helped kick off our Warmachine/Hordes narrative campaign out at Drawbridge Games. Since attendance had been dropping on Warmachine night, my friend Andrew thought it would be a great idea to get a summer narrative campaign going.

After tossing around some ideas, the story of the United Kriels relocating to the continent of Alchiere was chosen. We kicked the campaign off with an Iron Kingdoms RPG mission which set the scene. We had a pretty good turn out as we had double the players of what we’d had in recent weeks.

A narrative campaign was also an excuse to get the Trollblood models I’ve had sitting around done. I’m slowly building up a Calandra list featuring two units of Champions and a number of warbeasts. Why Calandra? Dice fixing. My dice kill me more than not and a warlock which gives me a whole bunch of re-rolls sounds delicious. On to a painting update!

Need a rush? Grab an Axer.

The ubiquitous Bouncer. A nice caster defense package.

The first of two champion units I'll be painting.

The lucky lady herself, Calandra.

Welps! Left side! Many Welps!
