And with much great rejoicing the Dwarfs were painted! A mid summer choice was made to play them in the ECBBL Autumn season so they had 10 weeks to be painted. Having young children I don’t get to paint very frequently so this was actually a much shorter (no pun intended) timeframe than it seems. Still nothing seems to focus the mind as much as a deadline.

I would rate my painting at the same level of my Bloodbowl play: adequate (cite, Paul “Geggster” Gegg, 21/08/2019). So please enjoy the reasonably pretty pictures but don’t look too hard.

With the Dwarfs all balancing on their wire stilts & corks for painting (extreme measures to avoid being called short) I could for once create the basing for my team separately. Being Dwarfs there is only one suitable surface for them to play on: stone paving. This can however fall into the category of quite dull so I thought a while about how to liven it up a little.

Not being someone who can concentrate on a single project at once, while the goblins are being painted I have begun work on the next team...

For this project I wanted something very different. The Ying to the goblin Yang, the hard armoured surfaces to their cloth & flesh, the Tackle to their Stunty, and yes the no-fun to their fun.

Dwarfs it is then.

Fast forward twenty odd years and I'm reminiscing about the good old times, reliving our grand adventures in the age of strife and I find myself on eBay buying it all over again, with the expansion packs I didn't get to play as a kid all as new with the pieces still in the sprues. Ha! Not for long, that's not what games are for!
