Lords Of War Previews Amazing Lizardman & Elf Art
June 3, 2013 by brennon
Black Box Games' Lords of War is looking forwards to Lizardman Versus Elves as their next battle pack and below you can see some beautiful artwork for this really tactical game...
It really is a nice art style that harkens back to the older days of role-playing games and wargaming. As I mentioned in the review, which I'm going to link at the bottom, it has a bit of the Ralph Bakshi about it.

With five defence backing him up he isn't easy to push over either.

This would not make or break a game in my eyes, you could even create your own… Read more »

You do not need to buy lots of copies to play competitively because all the Armies are nicely balanced due to the very hard work of Martin… Read more »
