[Deadzone] Starting Forge Fathers Strike Team


Here's my starting Forge Father Strike Team at 100 points.
I thought I'd put my faith in Mantic Games, and start with the example Forge Father list that they've recommended in the rulebook.

Deadzone Ready!


I backed the Deadzone v1 Kickstarter back in June of 2013, and it's taken me this long to finally paint some Deadzone models! 
I should point out that these aren't the models that came with my Strike Pledge (those models are still mocking me from my pile of shame), but part of the new Forge Father Starter Set that I picked up after Deadzone v2 was released - I couldn't resist sci-fi stunties!

When Deadzone v2 was released, Mantic Games was awesome enough to send everyone that backed Deadzone v1 a PDF copy of the rules, so I printed out the rules and sleeved them in a display book. 
Now, all I needed to play Deadzone v2 was the Command Dice and Token Set, which I picked up yesterday!
I have the very high quality Deluxe Gaming Mat, and have the awesome Deadzone terrain that came with my Strike Pledge all assembled (meaning to use them for MERCS), so I'm all set for Deadzone terrain!

Anyways, I'll post up some individual model photos of my 100 point Forge Father Strike Team soon - stay tuned!

[KoW] Filthy Moon Tribe - Spitters

Here are my three Spitter regiments for Kings of War, which are the Goblin Archer models from the Battle of Skull Pass set.


I didn't add too much yellow, and chose to keep the arrows red so that it would be easier to distinguish these models from my Rabble regiments.


Well, that rounds off the infantry units I have planned for my army - next I'll be painting through some of the goblin character models I've got lying around, and working on some objective markers too!

[KoW] Filthy Moon Tribe - Rabble

Since posting my initial photo I've slowly been repainting the Goblin Spearmen from my Battle of Skull Pass sets (I have two sets), and I've finally finished all 6 regiments, or 3 Hordes, for Kings of War.


I also decided I would colour the eyes, which is something I generally avoid, but it wasn't so bad once I got the process down.


For Kings of War I'll be using these troops as Rabble, as opposed to Sharpsticks (even though they clearly have spears) because that allows me to field more goblin infantry as part of my Goblin army!

Next up, the Goblin Archers!

[KoW] Filthy Moon Tribe


The urge to paint fantasy models has been gnawing at me, so after a long hiatus from the hobby, I picked up the brush and painted (well, repainted) a regiment of goblins I had lying around.

These are the old goblins from the Battle for Skull Pass set for WHFB, which I think are great for getting a lot of great looking infantry tabletop ready quickly.

I originally had these models painted with a MUCH darker colour scheme, which is how I envisioned my goblin army to be, but I think they were a little too dark for the tabletop.
So I added a little more colour with the purple spears, and added a lot more colour in the dirty yellow moons.

Original colour scheme on the left, versus the new colour scheme on the right

With about 120 more models to repaint in this colour scheme, I've got my fingers crossed I have the drive to finish off the entire army!

[Dreadball] Megacon Cardinals


I added another a grey tone to the midsections of my Corporation team to try and break up the red/black and give the models a little more depth.
So here's the last team of my Dreadball v1 Kickstarter completed! I now have an excuse to buy more teams...

[Dreadball] Cobalt City Sentinels


The introduction of the Brokkrs to Dreadball has seen the Forge Fathers replaced as the competitive dwarf team.
This meant my Forge Father team, the Cobalt City Crushers, needed an extra guard to compete as a legal Brokkr team. So here is my Forge Father team (now a legal Brokker team) rebranded the Cobalt City Sentinels!

[Dreadball] Rotgut Grog Renegades


I had this team painted up a while ago, but thought I would take some better photos. The background I used for their last photo shoot made the models look washed-out, so I thought I'd try with a different background.
