SAGA Middle Earth // DWARF CIVILIANS
« on: November 27, 2013, 11:15:48 AM »
Hi guys!

i finally finished my 4pt orcish warband for SAGA.
The warband includes 2 units of warriors, 1 hearthguard unit and 1 mounted hearthguard unit, who are led by a unnamed orc captain.


After a long time playing LOTR on the GW rules, i am really happy about getting some variety through the unoffical Middleearth battleboards for SAGA.

Cheers!

These look really good.

Well, I used Rohirrim as Dark Ages troops, they look good as they are, I nearly bought some Saxons and then realised I already had a painted force I could use.

I haven't seen the Battle boards for LOTR, do you have a link?

Fantastic. Some really nice conversion work going on with those orcs. Especially like the warg riders.

Thanks, Harvey, I'll take a look.  I like it when you can play a new game with figures that you already have PAINTED and BASED! Like, how often does that happen?   :D

Where do I get those LotR battle boards boards, please?

I just purchased a full set of SAGA rulesets at Horisont V, and ordered 5 sets of dice yesterday, thinking that I could just use some of the existing factions as the base for various LotR warbands, but if exact battle boards exist already, I think I should have a go at those!
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

More and more often, if you ask me  lol

I almost entirely paint minis that I can use for several purposes these days.

Those are among the FINEST LoTR Orcs I yet seen. The brushwork is SPLENDID & the bases make each group a BEAUTIFULLY crafted vignette. VERY WELL DONE!
