Also the rocks on the base weigh it down and stop it falling over. Buit it *can* get in the way sometimes.<br /><br />Not the largest stronghold I've encountered though - back in the day there was a guy did some UK comps who had a tower a good 2-3' high. If you sat directly behind it you couldn't see your army :)Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-6725338490584508782022-12-28T21:05:21.323+11:002022-12-28T21:05:21.323+11:00Yes - we meet every Thursday evening at Wollongong...Yes - we meet every Thursday evening at Wollongong University.<br /><br />Email me if you want more details.Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-84962782762152463422022-12-28T21:00:35.677+11:002022-12-28T21:00:35.677+11:00Where do you play is it a club ?

Looks impressive, but precarious on the table edge…. (I find that larger strongholds have a tendency to become elbow-magnets….😶, but then again my clumsiness may be the issue, here).

Some are figures that were his from the start, but he also has a talent for slowly assembling armies from random finds on bring and buy stands over several years. They just get a bit of a repaint and rebase to bring them into line.Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-26944146327328104992022-12-10T07:09:02.453+11:002022-12-10T07:09:02.453+11:00Although I have no plans myself to build a 'pr...Although I have no plans myself to build a 'proper' HoTT army, I have long been lost in admiration for the thought and imagination that have gone into their creation. LOTR and Steampunk have been fertile ground for ideas...<br /><br />I did play in one club competition many years ago, but went with a very 7YW army (Russians). It was fun!<br />Cheers,<br />IonArchduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-84407250503080789182022-12-09T21:48:34.031+11:002022-12-09T21:48:34.031+11:00I spotted a fair few Tin Soldier figures in the mi...I spotted a fair few Tin Soldier figures in the mix Alan. Lovely miniatures with a certain charm. Pretty “old school” I reckon.<br />I always enjoy reading your HotT battle reports.<br />Cheers,<br />GeoffElliesdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265204443922617741noreply@blogger.com
