Additional figures

As the league has progressed, I made the decision to paint up all of my teams that sat unloved in the lead pile. The first of these is my Dwarf team. I originally had a few 2nd edition players bulked out with converted troll slayers and linemen. I decided to rectify this by picking up a few more 2nd and 3rd edition players to complete the team properly. I also decided to change the original team colours of pink and grey to blue and pink. So here is the progress so far

Dwarf Runners

Grim Ironjaw - Star player

Dwarf Linemen

Naugrim Ironfists

So 10 players completed. Thankfully 1 of the club members donated a few figures, so I have 2 troll slayers and 2 more 2nd edition lineman on the painting table. I have also identified 2 figures to use as blitzers. They are both 3rd edition figures, 1 is an actual blitzer, the other is a lineman, but as he looks sufficiently different to the rest of the team he will proxy as a blitzer.

The other team I am working on is a second Skaven team. These are also a mix of 2nd and 3rd edition figures. The 2 ranges mix well together. My 2nd edition Rat Ogre and the surplus blitzer has also had a change of team colours.

Linerats and Throwers

Scuttleton Rats

To complete the team I have a 2nd blitzer, another Linerat and a Gutter Runner. Mitch has also printed me 2 resin Gutter Runners as the metal version goes for silly prices on auction sites.

The last additions are 2 more blitzers for my Orc team - Da bad Moon blitz. Both have had slight conversions. The one on the right had the plume removed. The one on the left had a head swap from a Black Orc player. It is probably slightly too large, but he stands out as the team captain.



In a league update the Miami Rotters got back to winning ways, defeating the LV Raiders 1-0 in a brutal affair. This consolidates them in second place in the table.
