Bad Squiddo Games Prepares For Shieldmaiden Campaign
December 22, 2017 by thisisazrael
Bad Squiddo Games have been finishing off the year with a flurry of teases for their Freyjas Wrath Kickstarter coming in January 2018.
We got to see out first full unit shot of Shieldmaidens in a buildup for the full Shieldmaiden Army we'll see in the campaign.
The minis are sculpted by Alan Marsh and painted by Paul Sanderson.
They are made from pewter and comes as single piece minis.
Well also got to see early samples of sculpts from Phil Hynes of what looks like a mummy bear and her three cubs.
Annie from Bad Squiddo also gave some insight into the processes they are going through to ensure well priced and high-quality minis.
"Whilst we are starting to condense our metal casters down to a central place, we're keeping the resin spread out for now. It can be such a tricky task, far more time consuming, and a massive art."
"So we tend to match casters to the minis to play to strengths, meaning we currently use four different resin casters. Really looking forward to seeing what these lovely folk do with my lovely bears!"
It'll be great to see what comes of this future project and just how many systems will benefit from the range of them suiting anything from RPGs to mass Dark Age battles.
Would you field a Shieldmaiden army on the tabletop?

Those are rather nice.
I have loved their earlier KSs and I will be backing this one as well. Saga here i come!
Had my first game of Saga recently…and now I’m going to need these 😛
I am looking forward to her new Shield Maiden Army. I have a few that I purchased from Annie for my Saga Army. I may just have to add more.
I heard a podcast Annie did and it was really quite interesting. Maybe you could get her as a guest on the Weekender and have her talk about historical shieldmaidens. .
I would love to see Annie on the Weekender! @blipvertus can you tell me which podcast Annie was on? I would love to listen to it. Thanks!
@rayven It was the Meet les & Miniatures podcast.
Apparently I can’t spell. It was the Meeples & Miniatures podcast.
