Hobgoblin Tournament reinforcements finished

 With a final push the remaining 12 hand weapon and shield hobgoblins are now finished.

Again I have a couple of multi based dudes to allow for quick removal of the expected casualties.





And with that the unit is 38 strong and ready for tournament battle in just over a week.

Hobgoblin hand weapon and shield reinforcements

 With my first WAP tournament scheduled for May 22, I need to finish some hand weapon and shield hobgoblins for my 38 strong unit.

Thankfully I still have more of the 3d printed bros that were scheduled originally to be armed with halberds. I had converted about 20 of the halberd armed dudes so it was a tough decision to change these conversions.

However, I am happy with the final product as the cut down halberds provide difference between the standard poses of the sculpts. These dudes also have a mix of shields including the mongol fireforge minis to match those on my other hobgoblins they will be joining.



As I don’t expect them to last too long in a battle I will have approx 16 dudes on multi bases. This will speed up the removal of casualties.

Here is the work in progress unit with another 12 on the painting table.

Hobgoblin spear reinforcements

With two weeks until my first WAP tournament the rush is on the finish the needed hobgoblins for my 39 man (?) spear and 38 hand weapon and shield bros.

Using the fabelzel bros I have converted up the 12 hobgoblins I needed to finish the unit.

The spears mainly came from the old GW goblin wolf riders and some old skeletons plastics.





Here is the finished unit.

WAP battle - hobgoblins vs daemons






 So it was a dark day as the daemons seized the watchtower and despite our valiant efforts we could not shift the foul beats of the north.





The giant, wolf riders and war beast hit a blood letter wall.



A double charge of Keshig into the skull crushers removes them.


Belakor destroys the hobgoblin line after they try to destroy each other in a treacherous display of unity.

Ghazrak orders a valiant retreat as his unit of kheshig is destroyed. He joins Oglah Khan’s unit and leaves the daemons to their prize. Vengeance will be pursued another time.
