A very enjoyable read! Good to see the heroics at the exact last moment.

I like following your campaign. Hope to see you follow it through to the end!

Thanks for the comments! Yeah it's gonna be quite a few battles, but I'm hoping the escalation of power in the armies will mean that it drifts steadily towards a conclusion. If territories keep swapping back and forth that would get quite frustrating, but we can adjust for that if needs be. Personally I'm hoping I'll eliminate the Greenskin army in the next Empire vs. Greenskin battle so that there's less things to worry about.

Unfortunately my Empire army will probably have to fight my Bretonnian army at some point - I don't know who I'll be rooting for!

As long as I finally win a battle against Laura's Wood Elves at some point in the campaign I'll be happy.

New blog post up - the fourth battle in my Nemesis Crown campaign! This time the Vampire Counts attempt to kidnap an innocent potato-selling merchant and the Wood Elves intervene for slightly selfish yet unintentionally heroic reasons!

Another great battle report! Seems it was a close run thing.

I am glad you like the terrain so much, thanks for the nod!

New blog post. Not really Old World related this time unfortunately. Instead I ramble incessantly about the oft-sighted expression "keep politics out of my game!".

Thoughts and opinions are welcome!

Very good post and I agree with pretty much all, but I don't think discussing it will be within the rules of the forum.

Thanks for the comment! I just had a re-read of the rules and I don't think it's going against any of them as I'm not talking about actual politics or contemporary events, simply the 'political correctness' of wargames in general.

I'm happy to remove the post if it's deemed inappropriate though.

Unsurprisingly, I agree with your blog post mate. Unfortunately I do not have the ability to reply there.

No political discussion has actually taken place so I don't mind the original post. Thank you all for your awareness on this issue and for not commenting here on political matters.

New blog update with a progress report. No battles have taken place recently so I thought I'd take some pictures of things I've been working on recently.

After re-reading my thread it looks like I already posted pictures of Aenur here, oops! I guess he can have a moment in the spotlight again - and at least he exists on my blog now too.

Great stuff mate, I particularly like the peasants!

And thanks for the nod, glad to see you putting things into use. You need a tinker gnome….

Nice work - could you give us a run down on the miniatures and/or parts used please. I too especially like the peasants.
