Sons of Ursun

Varik´s aim was true, the arrow hit the chaos warrior square in the chest. To his dismay however, the arrow ricochet harmlessly off the heavily armored man, accomplishing only to draw the attention of the chaos warrior. The gruesome helmet turned towards Varik, and bellowing a guttural war-cry, the man started walking towards him. The […]

Kossars Regiment

These guys have been almost finished for a long time, having even seen battle already. Especially the banner was a victim of procrastination, taking me a week to work up the motivation to start 😛 In the end they turned out well though. The unit is mostly the original Kislev kossars, with some additions to break […]

Hunt for the artifact – Game 2 vs Undead, Push

My second round opponent had an amazing “Greenskin undead” army, with ork skeletons and mummies, goblin ghouls and troll werewolves. There were so many awesome conversions in his army, and a great and original theme. He got a well deserved (and extremely close) second place in “Best army”. His list was approximately: Vampire Lord on […]

Across most of Kislev, the boyars are the most powerful individuals. They are close enough and have enough followers to tell atamans what to do, and any higher authorities are a […]

Kossars Troop

Kossars never really caught my eye in the Kislev range, fading behind the awesomeness of the cavalry miniatures. As I got a bunch of them in a great auction win on eBay, and it is nice to have some infantry options for Kings of War, I made up a troop of them. After actually having […]

Kislev Urugan Cannons

Kislev is a land of long, freezing winters and short, harsh summers. Because of this unfriendly atmosphere, the use of gunpowder weapons has always been rather limited. The Urugan Cannon or “Alexandr’s Organ” as Kislevites call it, is a notable exception. The Urugan Cannon, named for the sharp, screeching sound that it makes when fired, […]
