Halflings of War
It begins with No Half Measures
After several years of bullying encouragement by friends I have given in to peer pressure been inspired to start a Kings of War army!
After a lot procrastinating weighing options I decided to start by taking the Halflings from the League of Infamy boardgame and using them as the core of the army. I had aimed to get them done for Dungeonalia but got distracted by hosting an Armada tournament, but they are done now!
There's a few units in this....In there we have three heroes, The Sauceror, Greedyguts and Feast Master. Handy!
And the mighty Iron Beast. It is chonky.
The cavalry I’m calling a troop of Wild Lancers, they need a base to bring that together.
The rest of it is a grab bag of things that I am planning to bundle up as a regiment of poachers. Due to the size of the boardgame based they don’t easily rank up on an infantry base, but I can neatly fit 12 of the 16 onto a regiment base so that will do!
Now, the theme of the army. I have an alien landscape mat from Deepcut Studios and a terrain crate of Mantic’s alien trees that have a weird fungal theme to them. As the background for Halflings in Kings of War is that they are constantly seeking out new food sources, my concept is a that the army is pushing into a weird mushroom rich landscape and forcibly settling it. So I am embracing the weird and wonderful for my basing and will be seeing what I can do with multibasing!
Next steps will be……oh god, batch painting……
