Totengräber's Workpläce

The pressures of money have now convinced me that Dark Elves are not the army for me, at least not until possibly fall of 2008 when they get new figs.

In the interest of only looking at armies who have had fairly recent figure updates to plastics, I have now decided on Bretonnians. The idea is that I will paint them like one of the houses of the George R.R. Martin “Song of Ice and Fire” series, probably Baratheon, possibly one of the families from Dorn.

The only thing that bothers me is the rumor that the Lady of the Lake, the figure on which the whole of Bretonnian religion is based, is a Wood Elf queen who duped a knight in the woods. How crappy is that? Perhaps they changed that in the latest edition…geez, I hope so.

Well, I ended up losing this one despite her boasting “By The Numbers” and playing an Iron Man list, I still couldn’t keep her army out of my deployment zone and have mine make it to hers. No worries, though, it was a good game.
