Defenders of the Tavern - Kings of War Dwarfs
Concept
Kings of War Dwarfs have always been an army I’ve admired from afar, but never fully embraced. With my return to the game after a few years off, I decided to invest some energy into sprucing up and repurposing my Skull Pass models. Inevitably, Skull Pass models wouldn’t be enough to fulfill this idea, but I love them, and they were where I began the process.
Before we get to the dudes however, let’s start with the spitballing of ideas. I wanted my finished Dwarf army to look impressive when it was displayed, and that meant giving the multi-basing some real thought. I could have gone down the mine route, the stone columns and ruins route or even just a piece of nice battlefield terrain to have them on, but those ideas just weren’t speaking to me. I needed a theme, something fairly original, but still Dwarfy…a brewery? A pub? Now we were getting somewhere… Could I make an army look like it was in a tavern? How could I incorporate cavalry into a bar ffs? Surely pubs would have bar staff, (which Battle for Skull Pass definitely didn’t feature!)
I’d worry about these things later. For now, I needed to consider layout.
