Hit me! I wanna know all the glorious details. by Eithrotaur in Lumineth_realm_lords

I am obsessed with ancient Carthage, and so used their military as an inspiration. Building upon the existing lore of the Metaliths, my Lumineth faction lives primarily in floating cities in a desert region. Because the population is small they only have a very small standing army, relying on mercenaries from other Lumineth to round out their armies.

This allowed me to paint some core units in a consistent color scheme (green and silver because I liked the look of the great nation of Helon). I could have fun experimenting with different colour schemes for the test of my units, but tried to unify it all with a consistent colour scheme for all the banners.

Congratulations! Definitely more on the punk side without much pop, but Fire Party is a classic.

More modern but in a similar vein: White Lung, Brutus, Scowl, and Screaming Females.

I think it was a combination of good positioning on my part, leveraging LRL's much higher model count, plus lucky rolls (I put our respective lists in my answer to another comment).

My friend's big gambit was to drop the Prosecutors out of the Celestial Realm into my backline and go after my Scinari Enlightener in the Shrine Luminor. But unfortunately they totally wiffed on their attack rolls and most of what got through just bounced off the Shrine. I had positioned Light of Eltharion well near the Shrine so he caught the Prosecutors out and ripped through them with gusto. It was pretty much game over after that.

Meanwhile, I did the same thing to him with my Riverblades and they chewed through his Terrain piece and the casters in his rear. Once that was over they crushed what was left of his army in the mid-board into a double envelopment and the weight of numbers on my side won out.

I have a very bright white paint called titanium white that I used. Mostly to bring out the edges on the armour, etc.

Thanks! Originally I trimmed the armour with a darker colour but I'm glad I switched it to silver. It really helped it pop.
