I like the bases, just wish there was a roman-esque set for the Old Dominion.

Fishgnome Trophies for Gencon Tournament

Haha! That's fantastic!

Bases are pretty nice.

I love how Fish gnomes are a running joke.

Some more textured bases and the Dark Cenotaph are up for pre-orders.

Profane Reliquary for the Old Dominion.

Also ParaBellum will be part of the Resin Beast Competition along with Creature Caster: https://bit.ly/3vRT8dG

Any news about Localisation of the updated Rulesets?

They'll have to release those fish gnome minis eventually.

Hot damn that's a good paintjob

I'm really liking the OD command options. They look great.
Pity you have to buy it separately though.
Spending an additional ~26 euros for each unit you have seems a wee bit much.

Dam what a nice model, love how he is posed holding it forward, considering what it does. Looks sinister but regal at the same time, especially with that ace paintjob. Also really like that his helmet crest is not massive.

New plastic Hold Raegh spotted!

Interesting that the Noble Lord seems to have been the only one to get a significant resculpt in the transition to plastic, the Raegh and the Executor look like basically the same character in a different pose.

A much, much better pose in case of the Raegh, for one.

The top 5 lists from Gencon. 100K, W’adrhŭn, Nords and two Dweghom armies in the final five, seems pretty damn balanced for faction representation.

I like that Hold Raegh. Is that an alternate head with the visor down? That's cool. Liking that pose too.

Good to see continued variation in tourney winners.

That Raegh is the first plastic resculpt I like better than the original resin. The change of pose is a big improvement.

That model, I would buy.


Also, I read it too quickly and found myself thinking that “hold rage” is my favorite move in real life.

"Raegh" sounds like a pseudo-germanic term for "Regent" or "Ruler".

I was hearing it as “Roy” read by Mike Myers.

He’s got an axe big as Sputnik!

Pretty sure the axe is actually downsized from the first Raegh

Dweghom terms are based on PIE, so you certainly aren't wrong.

PIE?

Thank you!

I assumed Dweghom language was some sort of celtic language

Conquest minis are 38mm, right?

Do any of them happen to work with 32mm scale minis reasonably well? (I dunno, maybe some of the non-human type units?)

I like some of the Spires designs - I've been into biomorphic fantasy clones since Rackham's Dirz hit the scene - but worry that none of the Conquest minis will fit with my 28mm to 32mm collection.

I do appreciate that a larger scale like 38mm would make painting Conquest minis less of a pain, I just prefer to hodgepodge all my miniature lines together on the tabletop.

I'm not quite sure I like the paint scheme, but the models themselves could have promise.
I think they would look a lot better with a darker and grittier scheme, maybe something that gives them a more organic look.

Yeah the paint scheme is very one-dimensional with no variation in the white carapace, it is certainly throwing me off a bit. The posing does seem pretty stale though, like they aren't quite standing but aren't quite bracing and aren't quite doing... anything. I think using the same arms was a mistake here, the two units needed more than just different hands & heads and the resulting arm pose doesn't work for either of them.

Yeah, Spires just can't seem to get a good infantry kit, can they?

New Nord releases for October

Blooded (plastic remake), Volva, Valkyries and Bow Chosen.

Cool stuff. Still real thick on those shields, but I like the Valkyrie posing; it reads with a sort of 'detachment' to me like they are beyond mortal concerns.
