Great looking figures. I really like how you did the shield on the flag bearer. Basing is wonderful as well. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks chaps  :)

We had a little bash with the basic GW LotR rules the other night and I think we like them. We'll try again with the more advanced rules and some possible modding (turn sequence, units).

A couple of pictures below of a quick, throw together game. No real report as such, just proof that the figures are getting used  ;)

It was a win for the goodies  :D







cheers

Very nice, mate.

LotR seems to be getting a lot more popular these days.

I see Sherwood Village travels well.

Note the non regulation bases on the Gondorians and was it eight Riders of Rohan?  ;)

Non regulation? Aren't you all happy you play in a club then and not a GW tournament with gentlemen's agreements about these things... Isn't that right Mamma... ;)

Smashing James. Looks just the part, I much prefer small fast paced games to longer battles.

Cheers

I don't find the LOTR rules very pleasing, but that table is frikkin' marvelous!  You could even convince me to play LOTR if I got to shove minis around on that!  :D

Really nice work James, but eight men won't hold the Westfold!!

By the way, you're a git, I just went and found all my Lotr figures in the shed.  :(


Can I come and play now?

Edited: due to my inability to count..  ::)
