A photo of a three-player game of Warhammer Underworlds, a hex-based board game with miniatures and cards. Lady Harrow's Mournflight (four flowing spirits) are at the left, The Crimson Court (four elegant vampires in silver and bronze armour with red cloaks) are at the right, and across the other side of the board are Hrothgorn's Mantrappers (a huge ogre with a crossbow/bear trap launcher, a sabretooth tiger, and four goblins).

We had Ben over again today for a Beanie visit and some Warhammer Underworlds. The Beanie visit went very well, we didn't even give Beanie any of his medicine and he'd pretty well calmed down inside of ten minutes! Warhammer Underworlds ended up being extremely close, Ben and I tied for the win on 10 glory, and Kristina got 9! And then we went to a pub near us for dinner and I had a burger and it was excellent. 👌🏻

A photo taken side-on of a Warhammer Underworlds game board with three armoured orks on the left very aggressively positioned towards the middle of the board, and four elegant vampires on the right.

Went over to our friend's place today for some more Wednesday night gaming, this time with me in an advisory position. He ended up winning 14-10, and both warbands were down to a single fighter at the end!

A photo of the board of Warhammer Underworlds. The art on it is primarily blues and feels like a sea cavern. It's covered in hexagons and there's two sets of miniatures facing each other in various positions: Lady Harrow's Mournflight, a set of four spooky spirits all flowing and painted in a sickly pale green, and Hrothgorn's Mantrappers, a huge ogre with a massive crossbow alongside a sabretooth tiger and three little goblin-looking creatures. There's cards and dice around the board.

Went over to a friend's house tonight for a cheeky mid-week game of Warhammer Underworlds. Despite never having played and being down to one fighter at the end, he won 14 to 11! (Partially my fault, I got a bit greedy.)

A photo of a three-player game of Warhammer Underworlds, a hex-based board game with miniatures and cards. There's the Grymwatch (cannibalistic ghouls) closest to camera, with the Crimson Court (elegant vampires) to the right, and the Wyrmspat (disciples of Nurgle who thrive on spreading disease and decay) to the left.

We had Ben over again for Beanie socialising and Warhammer Underworlds this afternoon! The Beanie socialising went extremely well, we gave him one single one of his calming pills this time and we can definitely go entirely without them next time. The game of Warhammer Underworlds was SO GOOD, and INSANELY close! Ben won again with 13, but Kristina and I tied on 12! It seriously could have gone any way.

A photo of the board of Warhammer Underworlds. The board is hex-tiled and the art looks like it's in a sea cave or some underwater cavern. The two warbands are the Crimson Court (elegant vampires) and the Grymwatch (flesh-eating ghouls).

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying on a tan-coloured lounge with his head on one of the foam trays that I store my miniatures in and one leg hanging off the side of the lounge.

We played our first game of Warhammer Underworlds with the new Harrowdeep rules, and using the two warbands I most recently painted! It was SUPER fun and ended up being a draw at 11 each. I went over to the lounge to pack things up and unsurprisingly Beanie was entirely amongst it.

A photo of seven miniatures, all are painted in a purple/green zombie flesh-type colour. One of them is standing on the back of someone in armour who's lying face down, and has torn his arm off and is busily gnawing on it, another's holding a severed head. There's also two bats in mid-flight who are dragging a headless torso along the ground. All seven ghouls' mouths, hands, and feet are all covered in what looks like fresh blood like they've just fed.

Oh man, this blood effect paint (called appropriately enough "Blood for the Blood God") is amazing/horrific.

For the first time since May of last year, I've actually fully completed a painting project! This is the Warhammer Underworlds warband The Grymwatch, they're a band of ghouls who are completely insane and think they're a noble band of knights but they're actually just, well, flesh-eating ghouls. (Technically they're not actually fully completed quite yet, I still need to varnish them and then apply blood effects, but that's going to have to wait until it's a) not above 25˚C and b) not humid).

A photo of the Grymwatch warband assembled, in sickly green plastic. Seven miniatures, six are zombies, one's holding an axe and pointing, the others are hunched over in various poses. There's also a pair of very large bats.

A photo of the Kainan's Reapers warband assembled, in bone-coloured plastic. Six miniatures, all skeletons. Four are warriors holding various weapons, one has a big staff and is weaing an elaborate headdress, and the last is a HUGE armoured fellow towering over the rest, holding a double-bladed scythe.

A photo of the Starblood Stalkers warband assembled, in torquoise-coloured plastic. Six miniatures, all lizards. One has a blowpipe, another has a spear raised above his head, the third is slinking along. Another is a chameleon with a blowpipe, the fifth has an elaborate staff and is holding a small ball up in triumph, and the last is a big heavily-armoured chonker.

A photo of the Khagra's Ravagers warband assembled, in dark grey plastic. Four miniatures, all human, though aligned with Chaos. Three are heavily-armoured, two of them with helmets on, the third without one (Khagra herself), and the last is a more spindly-looking wizard lady with horns growing out of her head and holding a staff in one hand and casting flame in the other.

That was a productive day, I got ALL the rest of the Warhammer Underworlds warbands assembled! We have the Grymwatch, Kainan's Reapers, the Starblood Stalkers, and Khagra's Ravagers. Of course, it remains to be seen how long it'll be before they're actually painted. 😛 (I should point out that this is more work I've done with my miniatures in the last two days than I'd previously done in the last seven months).

A photo of the Warhammer Underworlds warband "Rippa's Snarlfangs". It consists of three goblins with Mongolian-style hats riding on the back of big wolves. One has a big spear, another is aiming a bow and arrow, and the third is waving a sword around.

A photo of the Warhammer Underworlds warband "Da Kunnin' Krew". Two tall and slender but fairly heavily-armoured orks, one with a trident and whip and the other with a big snappy-claw thing on a pole. There's also three goblins, two heavily armoured and one wearing a leather helmet.

Ok, some exercise followed by a shower and dinner gave me a bit of a second wind. I had to call it at two warbands though, because it's started raining in the exact direction that comes into the back room, which means I need to have the door closed, which means WHEEEEEE GLUE FUMES.

We had another visit from Ben today, played more Warhammer Underworlds, a 3-player game this time. Ben absolutely smashed it this time, and won 13-8-1 (yes, I scored exactly one single glory, EVERYTHING went poorly and I got all the cards at the exact wrong time). Beanie was a bit barky as expected, but we'd also just had a mattress delivered so he was already a bit anxious.
