After being really impressed with Wargames Atlantic's sci-fi sets I've decided to build a small halfling force for some Frostgrave and later Age of Magic action. So I ordered 3 boxes of Halfling Militia ...
So far I've managed to paint up about 11 little guys, converted up one wizard and primed a few more. I'll try to add slowly to this force and document my progress here the best I can :)
Here are some pictures of the finished models. A unit of 4 hearthguard halberdiers, 2 soldiers with shield + close combat weapons and 2 with pole weapons. One wizard converted using Cannon Fodder, Fireforge and Frostgrave Wizard bitz.
The greathelms are from the Halfling Militia kit, 1/sprue.
I played two games (6 points each) and really enjoyed it :) In my opinion it is a great balance of deep, but not too cumbersome rules with cool abilities/ways you can build up your forces.
If things go as planned I'll play two more games this weekend adding in some wizards and maybe a bit greater forces.
Excellent start to what could be a great wee army. I have no actual need for a halfling army but I am still sorely tempted simply because they are such charecterful minis.
I love the business like look of your hearth guard unit. They look like they could handle the charge of a goblin horde with ease, and all before elevenses.
In the meantime I finished some ranged troops and also some more warriors with halberds. Still need to base them, but after that I will post a few pictures of them.
Also converted up a new group of hearthguards with bitz from all over the place, those still need to be painted...
@András Csaba Horváth Are those perry arms? I used the Warlord ones for the same thing, But the Perry arms look real good, better than the Warlord ones.
Yeah, these are from the Perry Mercenary box! I had one around but totally forgot about it ...
Some will need small cuts and/or Greenstuff to fill in the gaps, otherwise they look pretty good in my opinion :) I'll try to convert up a couple more during the weekend and paint them up.
