KoW Expansions

 Yes further expansion of random armies is in order.



After years of hibernation I managed to get some desire to add to the Brotherhood army.  These guys are a massive pain to paint and take forever.  These are the simplest heraldry for the initiates


the dwarves gained a regiment of rangers and a steel juggernaut.


The undead gained a few Goreblights as I shuffled through the various bones boxes.


The brotherhood even gained a spellcaster damsel!


And for Rhordia I've got a mounted heroes as well.

Armada!

 Just got into Armada and it is a ton of fun!  Only takes a handful of models really to make a playable fleet and its a nice change of pace for painting too.



The ghost fleet was an automatic must have for me painted up in fluorescents too.  


The first of my Kingdoms of Men fleets was created for a Kings of War campaign that sadly never finished due to life complications.  I made my own naval rules years ago but they pale in comparison to Armada for sure.  these were meant to match a friends Rhordia army at the time.


And these were meant to match my own and act as a neutral fleet at the time.


Obviously I couldn't enjoy the game fully without my own board (plus its really better for pics too).  We might be reviving the KoW campaign sometime soon so adding armada and ambush rules to it are an obvious choice.

All Natural Pics!

 It dawned on me I have a rather large nature army that never got a big group photo!  This army began life during Kings of War 2nd edition and was the first army I made specifically for KoW.  It's gotten rather large but even so some previous entries on the blog have been rebased and moved to other games (mostly Warhammer Quest).  In its current form its pretty complete though I may have to revisit it and fill out a few entries...



Here's the big picture, over 4000 points of nature.  The rules have changed a ton since I first started this army but no unit has been invalidated or shelved because of it.



at one point I did field all three unicorns as well as tons of regenerating units.  It was hilarious but kinda mean...



Lots of reaper bones were used though a few mantic models also made it in.  Mostly only a few due to the options not being made until well after I already had a unit.




Currently I only have one beast of nature for the army.  I do want to eventually swap it out for a more table friendly model and add another 2 in for fun.


Yep that's a toy for my hydra repainted in the brightest colors I could think of!


The druids are some of my favorites, lots of fun to paint.




These are my worm riders, as you can see there is indeed a worm riding every one of them.



Somewhere in storage I have another scorchwing regiment that I need to find.


Woodland critters were a lot of fun.  I do miss when they had multiple variants of ensaring, basic and flying though.


The absolutely random assortment of minis represent my hunters of the wild.


And the Dryads finish off my Naiads
