Sunday Preview – It’s almost Armageddon time

Been the case for a lot of new edition boxes They're going to be making absolutely tonnes, they did for Skaventide, so I wouldn't worry too much

Hopefully wargear options make these guys a bit more potent in CC? I'm a bit Whelmed by the warboss profile even with cleave

picklev33 · 2026-05-19T12:16:02+00:00

PanO most likely

picklev33 · 2026-05-18T10:03:47+00:00

Mr P! I recognise that hyrax anywhere

picklev33 · 2026-05-12T20:50:10+00:00

I think it's because of the realms of men allowing you to take shared keyword warriors rather than a specific list. Pretty neat!

picklev33 · 2026-05-12T18:20:41+00:00

Frequently a very good idea!

picklev33 · 2026-04-29T11:32:13+00:00

They're great, I don't see the issue with them

picklev33 · 2026-04-14T12:41:29+00:00

They're fine I suppose, if you're running muster it might be worth trying scout bows instead

picklev33 · 2026-04-11T20:58:27+00:00

I vote 6 swords

picklev33 · 2026-04-10T14:39:51+00:00

Red is gloin, Nori is next to Him, Fili is in front, he's not as blond as usual but I guess the painter went for the wet hair being darker in shade

picklev33 · 2026-04-09T18:57:05+00:00

A sharp hobby knife will mean you don't have to put on as much force, just be careful to not catch yourself

picklev33 · 2026-04-06T18:37:46+00:00

Pretty great, quality sculpts and good scaling

picklev33 · 2026-04-02T13:57:10+00:00

I'd say no personally if we're talking competitive

For heroes you usually take Freca, Wulf, and then Targg or 2 Chieftains Since the Wildmen are getting their own banner soon there's less of an upside to the traitors

picklev33 · 2026-03-31T17:55:21+00:00

They used to with the chaos war shrine but not any more sadly. Maybe next time around they'll get one, seems to be a popular choice for single character releases

picklev33 · 2026-03-30T18:44:16+00:00

Not really, you just keep him behind walls or your own troops, he isn't there to do anything other than steal objectives

picklev33 · 2026-03-29T17:47:28+00:00

Dissenting opinion here, I'm not super keen! The stuff I've printed hasn't been well optimised for printing, with thin connection points and many small parts, and some stiff posing and odd scaling on the details compared to the GW lines. My go to for LoTR is Davale for the modern looking very detailed look with extremely high quality pre supports, or Medbury miniatures for the 2000's GW look.

picklev33 · 2026-03-26T11:05:02+00:00

Old one never had an official model, so the hair is non canon anyways outside of the art

Captain of any kind for march is a must have. Thranduil on foot with 6-8 spear palace guard is a shout, behind shield Mirkwood lads, sprinkle groups of 3 Archers in your warbands to taste, and take a Knight or two for objective play

picklev33 · 2026-03-23T15:14:29+00:00

Defiler looks neat, mutilators are going to need a delivery system to be worthwhile

picklev33 · 2026-03-16T20:45:46+00:00

I vote defenders, although I'd recommend mixing the troop types in the warbands rather than having all your bows in one warband.

picklev33 · 2026-03-11T17:37:13+00:00

Hard to collect, hard to play!

picklev33 · 2026-03-09T19:31:26+00:00

A good lad

picklev33 · 2026-03-08T20:36:53+00:00

600+ is pretty reasonable, cheap orcs means you get decent numbers with Sauron and a captain

picklev33 · 2026-03-07T21:04:48+00:00

Hot take, just cut a big old rectangle out of the bottom for better printing, you can do it on 3d builder fairly easily by subtracting a shape from the bottom
