MORE MONSTERS

Box showed up today from Miniature Market with some more Reaper Bones minis.  I really like Bones for filling out the random monsters.  Good price and decent sculpts.  Added four wraiths, giant, vampire, and a lesser demon. One day they will all be painted...  :)

New monsters to beat on unwary treasure hunters

HELLO and HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Took some time off from Frostgrave after I finally got a couple games in early summer. Life and work seemed to get in the way, as usual. Started working on stuff a couple weeks ago. Bought a cultist sprue and made my Necromancer some more suitable thugs. Also started to build the scenario specific terrain and working on collecting/building/painting the monsters for the random monster list. Posting a few random photos. Hopefully I can get motivated in the new year to get everything painted and play a few more games. Happy Holidays!

STATUS REPORT 2

Recieved my Ulterior Motives card set from Brigade Games last Friday. UM is a set of forty cards that can be used in the game to give your wizard something else to do, and get fat loot at the same time. Well maybe not fat loot, but definitely loot and experience. I also ordered the resin terrain kit that goes with the cards and a Barbarian sprue just for giggles.

I also based a couple Reaper Bones Barrow Rats and put together a Filth Beast which I plan to use as the Alchemical Monstrosity in the Dark Alchemy solo campaign.

RESOURCES

These are the places I use to get my Frostgrave fix. I have linked to the Frostgrave sections, but be sure to check out all the other stuff on their sites.

Osprey Publishing is the company that puts out the rulebook and all the supplements. Lots to look at on this site.

North Star Military Figures creates the official Frostgrave miniatures. They are based in the UK and make a TON of miniatures for various games. It is time well spent looking through their website. I found out recently that when certain games release new content, like the new supplement for Frostgrave, they will create what they call a "Nickstarter". Basically you can buy the product from them and if enough other people do to, they will throw in some type of bonus item. Unfortunately they are based in the UK, which means expensive shipping. Luckily they have a US distributor.

Brigade Games is the US distributor of North Star Military Figures. They carry the Frostgrave line along with a lot of other miniature/hobby supplies. I have ordered with them twice and sent a couple of inquisitive emails. Emails were answered promptly and orders received without a hitch. You can buy into the Nickstarters through them too.

Lead Adventure Forum is a great resource for all things relating to miniature gaming. Spend some time with the site and you will be amazed how many types of miniature games there are. Frostgrave has its own child board attached to the fantasy section. The game creator is also active on the forum.

Tales of Frostgravery is a Frostgrave blog from a member of the LAF. It is a great read, especially his battle reports. His blog is the main reason I decided to give this a try (again). Be sure to check out his name!

Guerrilla Miniature Games is a YouTube channel dedicated to miniature gaming. Lots to watch and new content uploaded every day. Check out some of his Frostgrave videos to get a feel for the game.
