Hi.
I recently wanted to get back into mass battle fantasy gaming and my wife was keen to play some as well.
Back in the day I played WFB 3rd Edition.
When trying to work out what rules to use to get back into mass battle fantasy I had 2 options:
Try something new, force my aged brain to learn something and hope once learnt I actually liked it.
Use something I was familiar with and knew I liked.
This is the result:
Now, our house is small and our time is limited.
Whilst clearly 28mm is the way to go, either with old GW models and or many proxies, the lack of space for playing and storing would make this very tricky.
Then of course the time it would take me to paint at least 2 full armies and all the terrain needed.
So instead we went for 10/12mm to use instead.
We halved the base sizes and changed distances from inches to cm.
So what am I working on?
All in 10/12mm:
WFB 3rd Edition Dark Elves and Empire, these are my main armies.
I have started buying models for a number of smaller 1000 pt armies.
Orcs and Undead are being planned.
I am working on a sort of Mordheim lite, but using 10mm models.
Here are the most recent shots of the painted models/armies:
DARK ELVES
EMPIRE
I will go into detail around some of specific units and what not in due course!
