Deth Wizards – Barricades and Markers
We talked about the buildings for our little town for Deth Wizards, but no we need to add a bit here and there, to add details.
The buildings themself are from the Briarwood range by Dark Realm, and they do have their own set of scatter terrain, but I wanted more or let's say different things.
What really inspired me, were the barricades build for Mordheim (Town Cryer issue 03) and the skirmish games in the Generals Compandium / Warhammer Skirmish.
Deth Wizards – There is something odd about this town…
The Deth Wizards table is a group project. While some participate with their own warband, like Dino is painting up his undead, and I am gathering in an Middlehammer theme around Heinrich Kemmler, Florian contributes with terrain.
As we wanted to be flexible with the terrain and not locked in just with Deth Wizards, we looked up various ranges on MyMinifactory and Cults and ended up at Dark Realms and their Briarwood range. That wouldn't just work with Deth Wizards, but Mordheim, Middlehammer Empire, Frostgrave and to some extend even Turnip and beyond.
Last year, while I was looking for terrain files for Warmaster, I came across Dark Realms and I bought the Castle Argent files, but subscribed to the tribe as well, giving me access to some of the Briarwood houses and ruins, and we went with House #1 for a test print, to see if it would work. Florian used his new Bambu Lab A1 and used Bambu PLA filament (some say it's repacked Sunlu or Esun PLA+).
The buildings are split into different floors and you can take of the roof as well. There are smaller detail parts as separate pieces, to not create a problem with overhands. The fit is impressive and the overall quality by the Bambu print is incredible. This very close to a plaster or resin cast, but much more durable and weighs significantly less.
Age of Sigmar – Kruleboyz Da Kunnin Krew
Another former Underworlds warband released as part of the Stormbringer subscription is Da Kunnin Krew in issue 18. Over the entire run, we will see a total of 7 former Underworlds sets being re-released - all without the cards.
The Kruleboyz warband was initially part of the 2021 season Harrowdeep and a year later re-released in Rivals of Harrowdeep with Nethermaze, against Xandire's Truthseekers.
Age of Sigmar – Stormcast Eternals Xandire’s Truthseekers
It has been a while since we covered an Underworlds warband here. We did a review on the 2023 generic starter set and the last time we covered one of the seasons, was with Beastgrave in 2020. Within the Stormbringer subscription, we already had a couple of warbands, just without the cards, like Mollog's Mob, Zarbag's Gitz and others that yet have to be released like Thundriks Profiteers or Ironskull's Boyz.
With Xandire's Truthseekers we see another warband re-released within Stormbringer, it was part of German issue 10 in March 2024, but initially part of the 2021 season Harrowdeep and a year later re-released in Rivals of Harrowdeep aling with Nethermaze, against Da Kunning Krew. In case of the Stormbringer release, the warband is released without the cards.
Warhammer The Old World – High Elf Realms Ellyrian Reavers
The latest addition to the Old World are the High Elf Realms, who got a teaser on Las Vegas Open, with the re-release of "classic" miniatures of the last Warhammer Fantasy Battles kits along with some new additions to the range. A few characters and a new plastic kit of the Ellyrian Reavers.
This new multi-part plastic kit is available for 67,50 EUR and covers ten mounted miniatures. They went on pre-order on February 15th and will be delivered on March 1st.
Age of Sigmar Warcry – Kruleboyz Murknob with Beltcha-Banna
Not just the Stormcasts should have a banner to rally around, but the Kruleboyz as well. For that reason I picked up a Murknob with Beltcha-Banna.
This one is from the same Dominion Starter set from 2021, the third edition of Age of Sigmar, as the Knight-Vexilor, and is currently available as part of the Kruleboyz / Orruk Warclans Spearhead.
Age of Sigmar Warcry – Stormcast Eternals Knight-Vexilor
While the Stormbringer subscription covered some characters for the Stormcast, with still having to be released, it does not cover a bannerman. But this role is so significant, even on skirmish level, that I wanted to add one to my collection.
There are different Knight Vexilor models around, but I like the one from the 2021 3rd edition Age of Sigmar starter set "Dominion". But I don't need the entire box, so I grabbed one from eBay for a few bucks.
Deth Wizards – 2: The first formula
Since Deth Wizards is more of a side project for me, despite the goal of playing at CONflict, I decided to try my hand at painting a bit smoother and not rush myself with the skeletons. Of course, they're not really special models, but what can I say, I like to paint and I like to take my time.
I also tend to forget how I painted some models, which is why I like to write myself “recipes”.
Age of Sigmar Stormbringer – Warcry Stormcast Eternals Warband
I haven't updated this in quite some time, at least not written about it and I like to catch up on this. I started buildin a skirmish warband with the Stormcast Eternals from the Stormbringer subscription, mostly for Warcry, but not exclusively.
Anyhow, I was able to get the Stormcasts primed with Army Painter Colour Primer Dragon Red and some further base colours during a bit of mutual hobby time with other Wargaming Daddies. Never painted something red, so this was a novelty for me, but I think it is a great base colour and contrast to the regular golden boys.
Age of Sigmar Warcry – Stormcast Eternals Knight-Incantor Regis Fulbringer
Not everything for the Warcry warband was used from the Stormbringer subscription, some items were sourced differently. For example I picked up Regis Fulbringer with the Getting Started with Age of Sigmar magazine - along time ago around 2018-2020. And then again, after that magazine was sold out, trough the Arena Mortis supplement for Warhammer Underworlds during the Beastgrave season.
