COOL...I love the old Grenadier Barbarian Giant. It's one of those minis that I painted many times for various other Folk. You did a FINE job bringing the Old Lad to life. WELL DONE!

A small update. Some armed bondi to defend the village against trolls and jötunns, well at least they could die trying.

Miniatures from Wargames factory. Not the best miniatures on the market but they will do their job and it’s hard to argue with that price, especially as a friend gave them to me for free.

Some proper warriors, Viking hirdmen.
These boys are ready to tackle the lurking trolls in the forest.

Miniatures from Gripping Beast excellent plastic Viking hirdmen box. I just wish for them to release a box of plastic unarmored Viking Bondi. But I guess that’s not their top priority now.

Great additions, Engel!

That Grenadier Giant is a right proper looking Giant I reckon.
None of that namby-pamby nonsense with him.
Good choice!

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Now I just need to find the perfect set of rules. At first I thought about using the “Songs of..” rules but now Im not sure.

The historical rules of “Hail Caesar” turned out great to my tribal Africa side project (yes yes I know, to many projects running at the same time…) and I have considering testing them for this project to.

Im not sure its good for a small band of characters or monsters or creatures.
Treating trolls as elephants with some tweaking of the stat line could work.

Have you given the lord of the rings SBG rules a try. They would work well with your model collection.

For bigger battles i think its hard to beat kings of war by Mantic games.

Nice additions and I've always like that Copplestone giant. Try to point more light on the figs directly from the front. A cheap stainless steel shop light or two would do wonders.

That really is a nice giant. Fits your theme very well too.

This really is one of those threads that when you see there's been an update you have to come and check it out. You don't disappoint.

Looking great!  What rules have you settled on and, more importantly, when I can come over and have a game?

Thank you guys, very warming.

We had a little convention at the gaming club and I used this day to demoplay and debute the Treemoss fantasy project on the tabbletop.
