Forbidden Psalm warband

 Back for Horisont Con in May, we tried out Forbidden Psalm (Mörk Borg). It's a crazy random skirmish game with random characters and really deadly. I decided to paint up a warband for it using the mutants from King Games - Dunkeldorf line. 

This was also my first attempt at using Speed Paints. I've learned a lot since then, and I like the colors better now than I did when painting these. I made sure to use every colors in set set across these guys. 

A lot of pople love Mörk Borg and anything realated to it (there's been so many kickstarters with suff). The system and style is not really for me though. But it was decent fun trying out the game. At least it's a bunch a cool painted miniatures. 

You can find Forbidden Psalm here.

As you need a ranged fighter for Forbidden Psalm I did a bit of conversion work on this miniature. Gave him a crossbow, quiver and hand with bolt fro mthe bit box. Easy enough conversion to do, no problem there. The scale fit well. 

Gallows and Executioner

Executioner

Here's an executioner 3d printed by a friend. I had this printed up while waiting on the Dungeons and Lasers 3 to deliver (that also has a cool executioner in it). 

There's a scenario in Guilder: A Life In Shadows where the guilds try to rescue a condemned from the gallows. I added small blue details to the executioner, so there's a small tie in with the guards of my city. 

Gallows

This is a 3d resin print. There was a bit of warping in the platform and at the top beam. It was a really easy fix with a bit of greenstuff. The paintjob was a quick base coat, wash, drybrush. I added a bunch of wanted posters to the gallows as detailing and a bit of blood - this is also used as a scaffold for beheadings. 

Thanks for reading people. 

As always make sure to follow some different SoMe. I use all the platforms differently. And if you like a great forumstyled community, come check out the Discord. Best hobby people around are in there. It's a very nice place. 

It's all on LinkTree.

Nightwatch: Watchers and retinue

Nightwatch is a cool little solo/coop fantasy game based on the Hardwired mechanics. But the game is written for campaigns or hunts - 7 linked scenarios. I'm gonna start playing the intro campaign, hunting for Malicus Crane an evil necromancer. 

The group for that hun is described in the book, and I've gone for those models. 

Guild of Blades

This guy is made to look big and intimidating. I've used an old Games Workshop bretonia men-at-arms body and given him a marauder helmet. His axe is from an old dwarf model and the shield is... I don't now. There's an orc skull on it, leather on the front and it 'knight' shaped. Looked cool filled with trophies. 

Guild of Mancers 
The story behind is that like The Witcher series, she appointed to a court as an adviser. This being a small city in the kingdom of Lorenthia (from RoSD) pre-Shadow Deep invasion. It's her that's called the rest of the Nightwatch into action. She's also the one who's drafted the retinue soldiers for the hunt. 

The model is Eva Eilhart from Dunkeldorf, gave here a Frostgrave female head, a scroll and skull (being a mancer) and use a torch flame as a fire spell. He meal hand was easy to bend into shape.

Guild of Alchymists

Another kitbash hero. Mancers are also fighters, so he's armed with a sword and dagger. I used a frostgrave cultist body, GW empire militia arms and an old state trooper head. Then I found different bits with puches, flasks and some round ones - that looks just like grenados. I think this guy looks like a fighter alchemist. 

Guild of Rangers
I think this guy is another frostgrave cultist, maybe he's a ghost archipelago crewman. I'm not entirely sure. The head is from an GW men-at-arms and the arms are from the Empire militia kit. The quiver is from old GW goblins and then he has some pouches, a dead rabbit and a sword in the belt. 

 Retinue 

These are the Lorenthian soldiers, part of the city guard in the town where the Mancer is stationed. She's drafted a few soliders into joining the hunt and helping the Nightwatchers. 

First up is a crossbowman build entirely from FG soldiers kit. 

This soldier is a complete soldiers build as well, though I'm not sure where the shield is from. I liked the lantern, giving a nice city guard vibe, hunting some thief through the streets.

This spearmen is my favorite models of the entire bunch. I really like the pose I've gotten for him. He looks just like some guard sleeping at a city gate, not really caring about anything. The miniatures is a Northstar Oathmark human, given a GW high elf spear and an Empire militia helmet.

Check out the rules

I think you should check out some of Patrick Todoroffs games. Each of the games are truly excellent and most can be found right here on Wargames Vault.
