Halflings of War

After several years of bullying encouragement by friends I have given in to peer pressure been inspired to start a Kings of War army!

After a lot procrastinating weighing options I decided to start by taking the Halflings from the League of Infamy boardgame and using them as the core of the army. I had aimed to get them done for Dungeonalia but got distracted by hosting an Armada tournament, but they are done now!

In there we have three heroes, The Sauceror, Greedyguts and Feast Master. Handy!

And the mighty Iron Beast. It is chonky.

The cavalry I’m calling a troop of Wild Lancers, they need a base to bring that together.

The rest of it is a grab bag of things that I am planning to bundle up as a regiment of poachers. Due to the size of the boardgame based they don’t easily rank up on an infantry base, but I can neatly fit 12 of the 16 onto a regiment base so that will do!

Now, the theme of the army. I have an alien landscape mat from Deepcut Studios and a terrain crate of Mantic’s alien trees that have a weird fungal theme to them. As the background for Halflings in Kings of War is that they are constantly seeking out new food sources, my concept is a that the army is pushing into a weird mushroom rich landscape and forcibly settling it. So I am embracing the weird and wonderful for my basing and will be seeing what I can do with multibasing!

Next steps will be……oh god, batch painting……
