Armored Skeletons

Two armored skeletons join my Liche Warband.


and an overview of the whole warband. Theorically it could be yet ready for fight.

Tomb Guards

I've painted two Tomb Guards for my Liche.


Here an overview of the new painted miniatures with the undead miniaturs I yet painted many months ago. I should paint two skeletons and a Undead Champion (Krell) too.

Liche

After months dedicated to painting Rogue Trader miniatures, it's time to do a break and begin to paint again some Oldhammer fantasy miniatures.
Here a Liche I painted today. It will be the leader for my mordheim "Restless Dead" warband and maybe for a Frostgrave warband too.


I painted it using the paint scheme of the Dread King from Warhammer Quest.

Battle Report: Master Yogur

Last Week I played the third scenario of my rogue trader (Pulp Alley rules) campaign with my usual player.

Background:
41 millenium, Somewhere in the deep jungle of a death world far away from a colonial outpost.

Sky, the young girl, was annoyed. She cursed the day when her ship smashed in this remote place.
She was just a trader pilot, then she is the young apprentice of a strange small green Xenos with a big cob brain.
Yogur: "Mind you must free. Concentration! Concentration!"
Sky: "I'm still not sure I'm a psyker as you said, but I will try, master..."
Yogur: "Do, or do not. There is no try."
The Ferro Beast pet, Rusty, suddenly shake, and Yogur himself sense something...
Yogur: "Go to camp, now. We finish for today."
Sky: "What's happens, master? I sense something unpleasant..."
Yogur: "Trouble"

meanwhile, not so far away from the Master Yogur and his apprentice:
Kayura: "First a rogue informant, then a smuggler's captain and now a Xenos psyker hidden in the deep of this alien jungle... and still no informations about the legendary Key of Graciale...
This is really annoying!"
Arago: "Patience, Kayura, patience. Soon we will enjoy the sweet fruits of knowledge..."
