Happy Sunday!!! And there’s no rebuttal to that! 😀 😛 😀
Happy Sunday CoG Brothers and Sisters!
It’s the XLBS Show!
This is my favorite show of the week, as we get to see our hosts talk passionately about what they are doing for themselves this week in hobby.
Grab a Mountian Dew, something to munch on, and put your feet up!
It’s time for the show………….
I like and vote for the Underground Mat. But we could do underground but part of the mountain split open so some snow drops in so there could be snow on buildings and some ground e en though it’s underground in a mountain. ?
Also, I vote for the Khador war wagon. The Wild West machine is just too silly in this army context. IMHO
For the bases you should go blue lava
I was planning it on my abyssals which is how I knew it exists
The blue lava was one of the outstanding tidbits of info that came out of the 40k Hobby Weekend.
When I heard you talk about it @Avernos I was like, “I’ve never heard of that! How is it that I’ve never heard of that?”
I can’t wait to see your Abyssals!
Morning Everyone,
Just about to watch the show.
Happy Sunday CoGs
I Vote for Underground und Horse Power! 😉
Snow and warmachine war wagon is my vote …..sorry Warzan .
What your describing about ranges and cover in WW2 games is Crossfire by Arty Conliffe
it’s even back in print I believe
It is. We played a whole Bastogne campaign with it. The tank rules aren’t great so we used a version of the old Newbury rules which worked well
Chaos <3 And apart from the illusion mechanic, it should be very very easy to convert to a tabletop game. The illusion mechanic is a bit tricky though. I have to do a huge shoutout to @halfmileduck He was the one insisting on color matching the dwarves, and did an incredible job on that. And it was such fun doing this project with him. Thank you Tony 🙂 Personally I would go for the Wintercity for basing. Simply because it would give more options than a fully snowed in base, and still bring that pop of white to set of… Read more »
Happy Sunday!
I vote for the Winter city bases with Horsie power.
I agree. the winter city and pony powered wagon.
@lloyd for skin tones this might help

Happy Sunday everyone First up the vote. I would vote for the Dwarven Warwagon as the other machine whose doors may be the right size dominates the army too much and would mean the rest of the force would be a little bit lost beside it. I like the mat on the right but actually, think that the Deepcut Frostgrave map wold suit better than any of the three you have out. It is a snow map but has a lot more colour and details, not sure if you have that one at the OTT Visitors Centre. https://www.deepcutstudio.com/product/wargames-terrain-mat-frostgrave/ @avernos great… Read more »
I would agree Gaz and the war wagon
Happy Sunday ! If you go with the Dwarves vs Celts theme, does that mean that Justin has to sit and adjust the Celts for cold weather accuracy?
Winter city. You can make some more heavy snow and some kinda underground.
Dwarf war wagon non-steam for the vehicle.
Happy Sunday!!
My vote goes to Warmachine Warwagon, the chariot looking design I think fits the aesthetic of a dwarven fantasy army better than the tank (although I’m not going to be disappointed if it’s the tank that’s for sure!) and the frosted city, seeing what you guys have done before with cobblestone bases I’d love to see you take it a step further and add some frosty snow etc to it
Also great addition of the yeti, seeing them together they look great but would have never put them together
For the warmachine, the traction powered tank. It is just so massive and bulky what screams Dwarf to me.
Wombling free?
Happy Sunday!
Or it would be if I wasn’t being buffered to death trying to watch this. So far I’ve been able to piece together enough to know we need to have an opinion on basing some dwarves.
I vote ICY TUNDRA. Basing would then work with the other two mats…
Gotta be the Schteam tank!
I was having trouble about the 40 min mark where it just kept what I presume was buffering without end. Had to go forward a few minutes manually to make it start working
@avernos mage wars is bit of a spellcaster against spellcaster type of arena battle game. It doesn’t use minis but cards.
You can summon creatures, items, buildings,… .
@warzan surely you need to find a mining cart for you warlord chariot…
Some sort of converted Hussite war wagon might do the trick
@avernos and @warzan Chaos Reborn on steam (£6.99)

Happy Sunday one and all.
Go Tundra / Winter City for the Age of Fantasy ( with a little bit of Magic ) Dwarven force,it’ll look great.As far as the Warmachines go,i can’t choose between them,i’d be extremely happy with either of them in an army of mine.
Happy Sunday!
Great discussion on magic. Interesting even thou I don’t play SAGA.
Justin looks like taken out from a 41K jeans commercial, but the work you guys are putting into cosplay is amazing.
But when will the Korea tickets be available?
Happy Sunday indeed.
Wombling Free for the bases – you’d be able to show off the Green Stuff World roller to match the European Pavement.
3rd option for the War Wagon… Massive Dwarf War Train made from the AOS Pizza Oven… massive cannon coming out of the opening… Plenty of Dwarf Engineer type models for crew. Additional wagons could be added with time – Treasure Wagon, Coal Wagons, Throne Wagon… endless opportunities.
I was Commodore 64 loyal so never played Chaos 🙁
Warren’s hobby has a Rogue Trader feel with a Space Crusade look, absolutely love it! Gerry’s Fire Elementals are great… must get my Dwarfs and Undead sorted. Looking forward to seeing those Koreans finished as well.

S casts spells and movement are the 8 keys around S as your directions. K cancels an action if you get stuck
Winter City & Horsies get my vote. I think if you went for the bigger wagon you’d need bigger monsters or it would look a bit odd. Frost giants instead of yetis then maybe the bigger wagon….
