About the Project

I have decided to be a glutton for punishment and paint up a ravenous horde of Halflings for Kings of War.

It begins with No Half Measures

Apr 25 2024

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!

There's a few units in this....

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!
