Rather than getting the big box of generic Endless Spells I’m working up some ones more visually styled to my Sylvaneth army. Balewind Vortex is going to be a big tree. Quicksilver Swords will use extra leftover swords from Revenants and Kurnoth. I’m undecided on the Cogs though. What would you do for good Sylvaneth/nature themed Cogs?

For the cogs you could use flowers. You can find decent sized flower miniatures pretty easily in the form of women’s brooches or summer decorations.

Think of the cogs not as shapes but as representing the advance and retreat of time itself. So you could have a tree, sapling, seed and dead log all spinning in a whirlpool in the air to represent the advance and retreat of time.

What about four stylised branches that represent the seasons? A tree that has four major sections where one is greyish brown and covered in snow, another has little green leaf buds, another in full summer green, perhaps with some fruit and another in obviously autumnal yellows oranges, blood reds and browns?

Balance in pick up games? Two people, each with their own goals for the game, design half a board game on their own without knowing the layout of the board and hope it all works out. Good luck with that. The faster you can find like minded individuals who want the same things from the game as you, the better.

The flower Cogs would be the visually comparable, but I like that seasons on a tree thing. Probably easier for me to make as well and fits into my overall tree theme better.

By the way, what’s the base size for the Chromatic Cogs and Quicksilver Swords?

What about doing something like a water wheel?

Or what about taking a base, dividing it arbitrarily in 4's and putting a season themed base on each quarter. Have flowers for spring, grass for summer, snow for winter, some autumn leaves for autumn.

On that same note, I was thinking of doing something similar with my Dwarfs and Free People, free people You could probably use the base set fore, but I like the Idea of taking the appropriate base size and making a thematic spell.

Finished building my three Sylvaneth themed Endless Spells. Chromatic Cogs, Balewind Vortex, and Quicksilver Swords.

Swords are blatantly straight forward, just using some leftover swords from Kurnoth Hunters and Tree Revenants. Vortex less so, but maintains the proper base and height and general shape and is still easily identifiable.

The “Cogs” are the least obvious one, and won’t make much sense until fully painted. Rather than trying to do actual cog shapes in my forest theme, I went with more their idea of time manipulation, and the tree will be painted as a full cycle of the year’s seasons.

Go home and prime everything I’ve been building today when I get off work and start painting it all tomorrow night, likely beginning with these and the Branchwraith.

So awesome. I especially love the big tree vortex for models to stand on.

And the swords turned out amazingly. Can't wait to see the trees painted up. Well, all of them really!

It's been heavily implied by certain folk that yes, Endless Spells are coming for the factions with casters.

Current precedent being when you get a Battletome. Just wonder about the factions who already have one.
