Kings of War Dwarfs #3 Ironblecher Organ Gun

I'm determined to get a Kings of War army to 2000 points, so I thought I'd push my Dwarf army closer to that point.

So why did I choose and organ gun over the other artillery choices? Purely for the volume of fire.  All the other artillery choices fire a single shot, granted that single shot does multiple damage.  That sounds pretty good, but you need to remember that they only hit of a 5+, which means they're only hitting a third of the time, or about twice a game.  The organ gun fires  fifteen shots... a turn, which when we mathhammer it means five hits per turn. That's far more consistent.  Granted each hit is less destructive, but I'm primarily going to be using hit to soften up enemy battle line units, or completely evaporate chaff units.  If I add another, I could cause a bit of a mess.

For The Glory of Rome #6

Here we have another unit of foot guard in the form of legionaries.  I've decided to run all my legionary units as foot guards.  The increased stat boost of foot guards over shield wall units is a bit more reflective of the highly trained and disciplined soldiers that make up the Roman legions.










Oh no! Chewbacca took the centurion hostage

For The Glory of Rome #3

That's another unit of Romans ready for the battlefield, well they will be once I varnish them.  This time it's a troop of auxiliary archers.  This unit takes me to a grand total of 295 points and 50 men... which isn't much now I think about it.  I better get some more infantry done to raise the numbers.  The question is what next? Auxiliaries, legionaries, or veteran legionaries? Decisions, decisions.

Operation End Times no8 Wraiths

I've finished a bit more fodder.  Fodder that's really hard to kill, maybe that's because they're ethereal.... elite fodder?  Today's installment is some wraith's from Mantic Games.






I like these wraiths.  They're a departure from the usual grim reaper.  They're not too detailed but I think they're cool.
Oh well time to paint some actual fodder.
