Zombie unit fillers to make my army pop, and wheez and shamble.

With my renewed interest in gaming and the likelihood of 9th Age being my go to game, I have decided to reinvent what is left of my Warhammer 6th edition  Vampire counts and re-purpose it for use in the Ninth Age.

In an effort to provide some dramatic eye candy for my army, I want to make and add unit fillers for my zombie regiments I am planning on three fillers, and then add these types of fillers to the rest of my army for cohesion and theme.

Ideas at this stage include

• Tomb stones and weeds, trees stuff, fences and zombies.
• Make zombies out of vermin swarm, humans and dwarfs.
• Fighting vermin in my units may add to the overall feel in my army.
• Fillers with vermin and undead with a fair amount of positional fun.

That is about all for now.

Cheers,

Whats new at the Zoo

Well it has been a while since I posted here, so what is new?

Well I have started attending uni and so no longer work. woot poor ftw.

After finishing my first semester I am starting to think about what if anything I will be playing with my soon to be free time, once house work, gardening and parenting allows it of course.

An low 9th Age is released and already i am more interested in it, then any other game in the last year since the demise of Warhammer fantasy.

So i am currently looking at making an Undead lists, Vamps probably. stay tuned.

Battletech Kickstarter

Hello all,

The rumors of my demise are sadly over rated.

I thought i would add my voice to the chorus and share the new Battle Tech pc game on Kickstarter.
I have already pledged my funding with this game universe and The Free Worlds League( House Orloff) in particular being my favorite.

See below link

This news may actually kick start (pardon the pun) my blog and indeed my hobby juices.

Ramble finished.

My Blog's Future content.

I am not sure what the community will do in regards to Warhammer 8th edition and Age of Sigmar, but for my part I plan on continue working on my 8th edition Vampire counts and Wood elves army's both the figures and the fluff, i have around 30 ish draft posts that i have been working on and i still intend to finish them off.

Warhamer Fantasy has been part of my gaming life for 25 years and I am not willing to give it up yet, whilst Age of Sigmar could be a good beer and chips game, I prefer my fantasy armies to have big formed up battalions and Magic, if in the future a different game peaks my interest it may well  fill the void of Warhammer Fantasy, only time will tell of course.

So hopefully i will have content of interest in the coming months, stay tuned.

Added a few new Pages

I have been meaning to add a few pages to my blog for a couple of months nowm but i just kept putting it off for one reason or another, but with the Destruction of 8th edition warhammer , and the arrival of Age of Sigmar i decided that i should fly my nerd colours at last and add the pages for my Wood elves, Vampire and Dwarf armies to show that I am not pulling the pin on the Old world even if GW has.

The Old world has been a part of my life longer then my Wife and it will continue to be part of it for many years to come.

I have also decided to give Age of Sigmar a page, the reasons i will discuss in another post, but for now let me just say.

Victory lies with the Big Battalions.

Brains- Or a WIP of my Vampire Zombies

It has been slow in my hobby world of late, with the 9th edition uncertanity.

But even with that I have managed to go through my collection and find my zombies both new and secondhand and fleshed out(pardon the pun) three units of 30 zombies or 90 zombies. To be honest i doubt i will need more than 90 of those rotters.

So work to date.

One unit taking shape with the green zombies and regiment bases, some zombies still need torso's.

Another two units again some torso work required.

As you can see from the pictures it is early days so far, some zombies are partially assembled and some zombies will need a new paint scheme/ re-basing.

But it is a start.
