@Rusty - My Frostgrave warbands are on 30mm custom bases I made with textured card. You can see pics on my FB page of how I did it.

@Paboook - There's a Mantic rep talking to me about that right now. I'll give anything a go. If i do though, I wouldn't want to just do it with what we have lying around, I'd like to show it with proper models and whatnot and that would take a bit to put together. :)

@Julius1880 Thanks so much!

I really like your videos since I first saw your Infinity batreps at MWG but I'm really happy, that you do Frostgrave!

These videos are some of the best presented, high quality batreps I've seen, well done.

I've said this elsewhere but for anyone remotely interested in getting involved with Frostgrave but feel like you can't devote the money or time then DO NOT watch these videos because they're bloody brilliant and you'll feel like spraying your entire terrain collection with white paint 👹

Amazing job on the terrain and minis but the production values are second to none. Ash and pal have great personalities for this too (I've made vids for ww2 and I know how difficult the whole thing can be. My own criticism (boo boo hiss hiss 👹) would be a second or too longer when the die are rolled with the camera slightly closer 😳. When watching I was trying to follow things and struggled at times (I'm slow ok 😀🐌) But these are great

I'd like to see some close ups of your warband minis that you've used (including the enemy warbands). Have you posted any photos somewhere?

Loving the videos Ash, think yours is the standard all bat reps are held against right now, loving the Frostgrave vids, Infinity & AoS.
 Keep it up fella.

P.s. It's because of your vids I bought a load of Otherworld minis, best models I've seen yet.

Thanks so much gents!

@Dez - Love to have you! Just let me know when and we'll throw dice! :D

@Panda - I've got some shots on my Facebook page, I've dug at least one up and attached it. :)

@ Morray - I've had a BLAST painting those models. They've got a real 90's charm I can't really explain but I just love them! I think Red-Box is my next company to dive into.

Anyway; new Episode today!

@Paboook - I'm really enjoying dusting off my Dwarfs. I think The Hobbit SBG version of the rules is one of THE BEST rulesets GW has produced in the last twenty years. Really playable, great scenarios and wonderfully open force construction. Hundreds of beautiful Perry sculpts to go along with it helps too. :)

I just stripped my poor Isengard army after five years in a ziplock bag (Seriously, I felt bad... but I needed the carrying case for other things!) so I can get my Evil on. :)

i've seen some other reports where there is a camera setup to do picture in picture for the dice tray, seemed like a good idea to me, but maybe that might be too small for D20.

Thank you for the close up shots...they look great  ;D

I've no background in Fantasy gaming and I've seen those wonderful bases your using!  I'm wondering are the cobblestone effect just painted like that or is it modelled as a part of the base itself? Where can I get my dirty paws on these delicious items

Thanks again
