Wow, never thought I would return to Empire but alas there are some stripes you will never remove. Unlike before however this will not be an get all - have all army but a bit more themed than I have ever done. I still have my Ogres as my main army (and it is huuuuuge), but this upcoming army and another, will supplement the rest quite nice.

Done so far
I intend to finish this last photo minis in may.
I am also replacing my gaming table with a more barren looking place with dead trees, old ruins, stone towers, huts, and just bleak weather all around.
I bought some plastic houses from Perry Miniatures that I will pimp out Warhammer style but they have yet to arrive.
Until next time (this weekend as I finish stuff)!
