Defenders of the Tavern – Kings of War Dwarfs

About the Project
Having just got back into Kings of War after having the 3rd edition book since launch, I decided to repurpose my old Battle for Skull Pass Dwarfs into something a little more functional. I love the multi basing aspect of KOW, but I like to take it that little bit further and consider how all parts make up the whole. As with my Living Graveyard Undead army, I wanted to make an entire, cohesive scene when my army was on display, but I didn’t just want ‘terrain-style’ bases. So, I started to imagine how these stumpy dudes might spend their time socially, and what might happen if an outsider stumbled upon their watering hole one night and I then imagined a recreation of the kind of scene you face when an out-of-towner enters your pub…Everyone looks.

The grand reveal
Here we have it folks, in all its glory: The Dwarven Defenders of the Tavern! Some poor sod opened the door on this rowdy pack of miniature mentalists and they’re about to get told it’s time for a fight!
In the front few rows, we see a horde of Iron Guard alongside Pinky the barmaid at their service

In the front few rows, we see a horde of Iron Guard alongside Pinky the barmaid at their service. In front of them, the troops of Sharpshooters and Mastiff Hunting packs. Behind the bar at the back, we have a horde of Shieldbreakers being served by Pinky’s twin sister, Bluey.
As we move right we start to get away from the drinking area and into the stall for the artillery and the animals. Two Organ guns and an Ironbelcher canon are ready to support my Steel (but mostly wooden) Behemoth at the back.
On the far right, back to front, we have the ram mount regiment of Berzerker Brocks, (they will be named the Ram Raiders), and in front of them, a troop of hogs to serve as S second unit of Brocks. In front of the ~Brock, no surprise here, the Rocks! A horde of Earth Elementals.
Finally, guarding the entrance as all good boys do, are the troops of Mastiff Hunting Packs.
So, that about sums this project up, and I hope you like what I’ve done.
P.S. The Dwarfs are for Ben, The furries are for Free, and the mould lines are for Gerry 😉
