About the Project

On a recent Twitch stream (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1989726433), Tim aka Sundancer made a comment (around the 32 minute mark) that he wanted to play as orcs much to Gaming Gandalf's chagrin and bafflement. So, here Tim, like this mate!

My first Frostgrave project

I got into Frostgrave very early on, back in first edition, and one of the main reasons for getting into it was the total freedom to use literally any models to represent your characters on the tabletop.

As a player of greenskins in Warhammer Fantasy Battle, I had a ton of old orc and goblin models unloved and looking for a home, so this was the theme I chose for my first warband.

When choosing a school of magic, the Witch school seemed the most shamanistic and orcy so that’s what I went with.

The only model I had to purchase was the wizard miniature for the warband as I had no orc wizard miniatures in my spares to repurpose. After a bit of searching I found what I think is an amazing orc shaman miniature in metal from Reaper which was exactly what I was looking for.

The other models were all Games Workshop orcs and goblins in either metal or plastic.

In Frostgrave first edition there was no specialist cap, which appeared in second edition, so you had more freedom to create a ten model warband as long as you did not exceed your 500 gold limit for initial model purchases.

So here they are in all their glory.
