A Dragon is just what I need for our Frostgrave game! Of course it would be a total warband killer, but I love it.

Yay for day 2 of the expo. Para bellum was great to see yesterday, looking forward to seeing Battle systems fantasy terrain.

Man, wish we have those conventions in Holland or Belgium for that matter, as along if it’s close by. Loved the Para Bellum coverage and am really tempting to dive in, but I am not so font of tray movement, it takes away a lot of the dynamic on the table (my opinion) But since the mini’s look ff’ing amazing, I probably get my wallet out for this 🙂

Loving the coverage so far. As I can’t make it this year I’m living through your coverage and Facebook messages from a couple of mates who’ve made it up. Those Parra Bellum miniatures look superb. Beyond that, I’d love to win that dragon.
