Men In Boxes

"At least, the sun will be on our backs," muttered Brogda the Red as he clutched at the rails of his chariot while Cumal his charioteer  manouvered to the front of the Keltoi battle line. "May the Morrigan feast well today, and not on my innards!" For weeks, Keltoi scouts have followed the advance of an orcish host from the deep south. Now, the green horde of monsters have reached the outermost village of the Keltoi Irinae tribe. With only a vast grassy field separating the monsters from the village, Brogda and the Keltoi weaponsmen he could muster plan to meet the invaders at the village edge and hold them until reinforcing  Irinae from other villages arrive. The women and children have left the village together with half the scouts two days past and reinforcements should be arriving this morning.

"Since they were to come in the days of the power of Melkor, Aulë made the dwarves strong to endure.

After a two year timeout, I've decided to get back into miniature wargaming. After reading up on the current rule sets available and asking around forums , I've decided to try out Mighty Armies for fantasy, Basic Impetus 2 for ancients/medievals and Song of Blades and Heroes for skirmishes.     Expect to see more stuff here soon.

I recently picked up a second-hand lot of skaven and started work on the core unita. I'll be making some as warbands first for Song of Blades and Heroes since I don't play Warhammer.
