Converted Numenor Captain

My Numenor force had already enough warriors and shiny new mounted named heroes. But one thing was still missing. A mounted Captain with full gear. Not only would he complete my collection but it is also very viable option to use a Numenor Captain as your second hero or as a small partner in a Last Alliance force with a focus on Rivendell.

So, after my shyness of doing my own conversions went away and I learned to work with Milliput, it was time to close the last gap for my Numenor force.

I am proud to present you my converted Numenor Captain with heavy armour, lance, shield and horse.

The base was an already decently painted knight of Minas Tirith, who was missing part of his lance. Thanks a lot on this juncture to MichaelM, my Master of Würfeldorden, for providing my this miniature =)

The work I did:
  • Mold a lance tip with Milliput and placing it on the lance staff
  • Cut off the knights head, cut off a Numenor warrior head and placing it on the knights body.
  • Molding a transition between head and body as a scarf
  • Molding a cloak and putting it on the back of the body
  • Painting molded parts and repainting other existing parts to match the miniature with my Numenor force colors
I have to say that I am really satisfied with the results and was surprised it went quite smoothly. A great personal hobby achievement! =D

I hope you like it too ;)

I will try to now do some nice shoots of the full force.

MESBG VS 40k 10. Edition - Meine ersten Erfahrungen

Image
Wie ihr vielleicht schon gelesen habt, habe ich begonnen 40k zu spielen und dass es mir sehr gefällt. Ich habe sogar meinen neuen Modelle den Vorzug gegenüber meinen Ostlingen gegeben. Es fühlte sich etwas falsch an am Anfang (immerhin hatte ich mein Ostling-Projekt schon lange vor mir her geschoben). Aber so liegt nun mal gerade meine Motivation und warum sie nicht genießen und nutzen? ;) Ich habe mich mehreren FB Gruppen und Discord Servern angeschlossen, welche sich mit 40k und AdMech beschäftigen. Während ich also dabei war meine Kataphrone zu bemalen und mich durch all den neuen Stoff zu lesen, begann ich über die Unterschiede zwischen MESBG und 40k nachzudenken.  Dabei kam ich auf ein paar interessante Vergleiche und entschied, diese mit euch teilen zu wollen ;) Ich habe diese Beitrag in verschiedene Bereiche gegliedert und schreibe zu jedem etwas über beide Systeme. Anmerkung Wie bereits in meinem älteren Beitrag erwähnt, habe ich mit 40k bisher Erfahrung aus vier Spielen Comba

Rise of the Necromancer LL Review

Image
The "Fall of the Necromancer" expansion from autumn 2021, saw four new LL releases. Two of them were hero-only LLs. One was the infamous "Vanquishers of the  Necromancer" - mixing up the tournament scene and stirring up quite a turmoil and discussions about how far a LL should go and if this is not the complete opposite of what the game stands for. While the other LLs (Rangers of Mirkwood and Pits of Dol Guldur) were frequently covered and discussed in podcasts, blogs, YT videos etc, the fourth one was notably absent from all this  or received only a fraction of the time- The Rise of the Necromancer LL. This one was actually the only LL and the only thing of the expansion I was interested in. I had my eyes already set on a Dol Guldur hero-only army for quite some time. And now I received the perfect LL for my needs.  I want to share with you my experience with this force and what I think about it in detail. Let me take you on a journey to the dark paths of Dol Guldu

MESBG VS 40k 10th Edition - First Experience

Image
As you maybe read, I dipped my toes into the 40k system and really enjoyed it. I even prioritized painting my new miniatures over painting my Easterlings. It felt wrong at the beginning (after all I procrastinated my Easterling project already for a long time) but in the end, my motivation currently is with 40k and why not enjoy and go along with it? ;) I also joined multiple FB groups and Discord servers, dedicated to 40k and AdMech. And while painting my Kataphrons and reading through all the stuff, I started thinking about the differences between the system and playstyle of  MESBG and 40k. Some interesting comparisons came up and I thought it could be interesting to share my thoughts with you ;) I structured this post into different topics, where in each I will talk about both systems. Remark As mentioned in my previous post , my 40k experience so far  results from four games of Combat Patrol and reading up a lot. And even though there is basically no difference in rules to bigger g
