Conan and Thoth Amon warbands for Open Combat
« on: 17 March 2016, 11:39:48 AM »
I recently got my Kickstarter copy of Open Combat and so, in preparation for our first game at the weekend, we've done our first warband...















Next up will be...Thoth Amon!

Love the miniatures! Haven't head of the rules set but anything with Conan involved gets my interest :) Looking forward to more!

And here is the opposing warband...Thoth Amon, with the aid of a High Priestess of Set, has summoned the Shadow King to do battle against Conan!

Nope, those are 28mm, as the Conan miniature is the Northstar Barbarian from the Frostgrave sets

Sorry...I missed the original question. LordOdo is right...all 28mm mainly Northstar Frostgrave and Hasslefree. Red Sonja is Reaper Dark Heaven and the Shadow King is North Star Fantasy Worlds.

Great model choices and paint jobs.  Perfect!

I was also an open combat backer. I'm very happy with the book, looks a nifty system.

Great ideas and painting!

I got Open Combat lying around here for some time. Was always a bit scared to build up every model from scratch before starting to play.

How did the games go? Is it better than SoBH?
