Greetings, dear readers!
On this post, we show off some Dwarven womenfolk, some good ol' fashioned warmachines, some Bugmans Brewery Rangers, and finally an update on Balin, Lord of Moria.
The great rebasing project continues. Soon enough, all of my Dwarves will be on square bases. Then we need to move on to the Orcs, Dark Elves, Undead, Dragons, etc. Not to mention, there are loads of new painted and unpainted forces to bolster the enemies of Moria! In time, all these will be revealed. Then we can do some battle reports and move forward with the story fluff. So patience, young padawans. Good things are on the way.
Onwards to pics...
Astute readers of this blog may recognize that Bertha and Penny from the Dungeon Chef adventure are now in this unit. The Dwarf barmaid from the Party of Special Magnificence, as well as 3 of the Hasslefree girls have also joined and become founding members of the Valkyries.
Next is Chef Bertha with her famous and feared Cleaver of +1 Mutton Chopping,
Next is Brienne of PopTart the High Priestess of Valaya, (not to be confused with Brienne of Tarth, which is understandable since both of them are exceptionally tall and imposing women of their respective races)
and finally on the far right, we have Penny the Sharpshooter with her trusty crosbow.
Gimli: "It's true you don't see many Dwarf-women. And in fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for Dwarf-men."
Aragorn: [whispering to Eowyn] "It's the beards."
Gimli: "And this in turn has given rise to the belief that there are no Dwarf-women, and that Dwarves just spring out of holes in the ground!"
[Eowyn laughs]
Gimli: "Which is, of course, ridiculous"
Alright, they arent the Bugmans Rangers Box set of which I believe there are 3 versions (Pre Slotta, Oldhammer, & 90s). But, Im using the 6th edition army book to create a Bugmans Rangers unit that doesnt have crossbows, or 2 handed weapons, nor shields. Hmm, they are more brewers and drunks than Rangers, actually. But, hey! They are still excellent at moving through woods and forests. And they have the excellent Beer Cart in its new green basing scheme to accompany them. But dont fear, I have a list. And on that "list of stuff to acquire" is a proper Bugmans Rangers box set, among other things. A Gob Lobber box, Dwarf Renegades, Dwarf Kings Court, and 80s Fellowship of the Ring, are also on that list. In fact the Fellowship is going to come in mighty handy with the fluff I have planned. Middle Earth, you are doomed! Doomed, I say!
Next to him is a Dwarf noble, Stonewall Jarlson with a trusty pistol and walking cane. He is one of those gallant Southern gentlemen Dwarfs.
Next to him is an unnamed Dwarven Drunk (but really arent they all?)
Finally, on the far right is our friend Stilts who comes in useful for scouting out the lay of the land. Again, wasnt Stilts helping to defend Easthold. Did they repel the siege, or were they driven out of their fort, or maybe out of Moria all together? I guess we will just have to wait and see...
Wait a second...
No, its plain torture to listen to this cacophony, especially after a fortnight's bender!
But Dwarfs are too stubborn to admit that bit openly.
Play on, Finlay, play on...
Oh look its Sleepy and Woodcutter.
This army marches on its stomach... with beer and beer basted ribs.
It seems every Dwarf civilian has up and joined the team.
But is it for selfless patriotic reasons? Or are they just following the Beer Cart?
Balin's forces are not only rebased, but they are also growing in numbers!
Oh and a nifty banner!

So there you have another post of new arrivals, and also some old friends with the new basing scheme.
Next post: The Rest of the Rebased!
