Hello again! Welcome to the latest issue of the WarPuppy newsletter.
This month’s episode of “A Dog’s Life” follows Mick through his journey in deciding on a theme and basing style for his High Elf Warhammer army. The episode highlights how an army theme can be more than grouping a warriors from the same area together or creating an elaborate story as to why all these particular units are in the same place at the same time.
On the hobby front, Mick, besides working on his High Elves, has been giving his AT-43 U.N.A. force through its paces. Adam has been working hard on a few commission painting pieces, as well as facing off against the U.N.A with his Therians.
Now on to some happenings in store…
NEW PRODUCTS IN STOCK
CNC Miniature Scenery: CNC paint & equipment racks are back in stock: Tired of losing your paint pots in a sea of black lids? Organise them on a paint rack! Easy to put together and holding a significant number of paint pots, these racks make your painting area nice and tidy. There is also an equipment holder and a parts holder for those who want to take tidy to the next level.
Mick has created a mobile hobby station by gluing a few of the CNC paint and hobby racks to sheet of 10mm MDF. This easily allows him to paint in the comfort of his living room, while storing all his hobby goodness in the garage.
Avatars of War: July also sees the addition of the beautiful but deadly Vampire Countess to the Avatars of War range.
This model comes with two different equipment setups and head options; the multi part option seems to be coming quiet common with this range. The detail, as always, is quiet spectacular. This model will be right at home leading your undead horde into battle or applying her seductive charms against an adventuring party, reducing them to mindless thralls… mwahahahahaaaaa!
You can purchase any of these great products NOW in store via the links below.
UPCOMING PRODUCTS
Chaos in the Old World: Chaos in the Old World is new Warhammer inspired board game from Fantasy Flight Games. Read on for a blurb from their website.
“What hope can there be for the mortal world?"— Liber Malefic
In the Warhammer world, four Gods of Chaos battle for supremacy. Khorne, the Blood God, the Skulltaker, lusts for death and battle. Nurgle, the Plaguelord, the Father of Corruption, luxuriates in filth and disease.Tzeentch, the Changer of Ways, the Great Conspirator, plots the fate of the universe. Slaanesh, the Prince of Pleasure and Pain, the Lord of Temptations, lures even the most steadfast to his six deadly seductions.
In the Chaos in the Old World board game, each player takes the role of one of the malevolent Lords of Chaos. Each god’s distinctive powers and legion of followers give the controlling player unique strengths and heretical abilities with which to corrupt and enslave the Old World. Yet, as the powers of Chaos seek domination by corruption and conquest, they must vie not only against each other, but also against the desperate denizens of the Old World who fight to banish the gods back to the maelstrom of the Realm of Chaos…for now.
"The time of woe is upon us."— Grimoire Daemonicus
This game comes packed with high quality plastic playing pieces and loads of cards and tokens. The preview shots that we have seen of these really capture the look and feel of the Warhammer Old World. We will be keeping our eye on this game.
