The Shire Marches To War!

It is time! My aim for this army was to get the Shire painted in time for their second tournament. After a week of hurried basing and frantically painting new additions (thanks mum for the early birthday present), I did it! I proudly arrived in Dublin with a fully painted Shire army, ready for battle.

It was a doubles tournament and my partner for the games was my friend Colleen, who fielded Treebeard, Radagast on an eagle, Tom Bombadil and Beorn. Thus the Middle-Earth Hipster Alliance was born!

 

The Shire Marches To War!

Our first match was against The White Council, a full force of characters all charged up to the gills with magic. It… proved one-sided.

No matter. next we were up against Isengard. Despite some truly epic moments (such as a shirif tanking an Isengard siege ballista bolt to the chest!), we didn’t prove much more successful than we had before.

Gundabad came next. Surely the Defiler’s forces would be no match for the might of the Shire!

Turned out yes, yes they were.
