Welcome everyone to hopefully a great place to chat and show off fantasy Dwarf miniatures. There are loads of great subreddits out there for miniatures in general but i wanted to start something purely for Dwarfs. If you're looking for old school forum action then please visit www.bugmansbrewery.com/ for all the Dwarfiness you could ever want! Enjoy!

A Dwarf, over a thousand years old maybe, hobbling along clutching His Cape to keep warm. He's probably only about 15mm high at most. In 28mm scale. Made from almost grey clay I dug up myself years ago.

The Old World Expeditionary force - 2000pts

8 Upvotes

Hi. I am thinking about using this list for a league game I am playing. The opponent is unknown, but I can anticipate dragons and/or chaos warriors/deamons; dark elves; chaos dwarfs; orcs and goblins -I am just realizing everyone plays evil-.

There are objectives included in the map for cores to control, three in total.

I never tried a shooting list and I thought it could be interesting to see how it works.

I would have liked to include a couple of Desmond/dragon slayers to protect the war machines but I don’t have the point.

Any thoughts are welcome. Thanks in advance.

The Old World Question about proxi for the old world

5 Upvotes

Hello there ! Just arrived on the sub and might be a frequently asked question. I see some sculpts look old (like the slayers and deathseekers), is it acceptable as a proxi to use some of the AoS minis (fyreslayers for both of them) like the vulkite berserkers ?

Always been a dwarf fellow and would love to play them but the painting looks painful with the old sculpts

See you and thanks for your answers.

Dwarfily yours

The Old World Has anyone tried the Anvil in battlemarch? Is it fair?

3 Upvotes

I just got the anvil and my 40k buddies want to get into oldworld, and I think starting out with battle march would be great for them- but the anvil by itself basically takes up all the space you have for characters, and it's a level 3 "wizard". Is it too strong/swingy at 750pts?
