Frostgrave

My Frostgrave book arrived yesterday and I have been reading through it. It looks smashing and I am really looking forward to creating a Wizard and their warband. Can well imagine Serefina playing as a witch, backed up by a group of warriors.

Not sure if I will buy any models, I can probably put together two warbands from the miniatures I already have. I could take them from either the Quest Characters I have made or from the vast Warhammer collection I have.

Of course that means I will need to look at my terrain and think how I can imbue it with the winter feel it will need.

Here are a couple of possible warbands and the absolutely gorgeous book, which shouts quality with every page turned. Sumptuous photography and beautiful illustrations make this tome a pleasure to own.

    1. Me too Gordon, I've got loads of buildings and ruins but they don't have a "winter" feel to them. Like you I don't want to permanently alter them, so some creative thinking is in order!!!!! (Don't hold your breath)

    2. I was wondering if there was something you could sprinkle over the table that looked snow-like...but then I'm not sure I want the hassle of trying to clear it all up afterwards.

    3. I was thinking about clumps of snow, like drifts that could be placed around, perhaps some v shaped pieces of card for snow to be stuck to roof tops. For the floor I was considering cutting some MDF boards painting them grey for the city floor, then place snow clumps again on smaller bases. Will make some drawings in next few days :-)
