Clash of Kings 2017

Last weekend Mantic Games hosted the Clash of Kings 2017 event at Firestorm Games in Cardiff. A two day, six game Kings of War tournament in the UK. I attended last year and had a great time and as such decided to fly over once again. Having only won one game last year with my Elves, I set myself the target of at least two wins. In order to give myself the best possible chance I painted up a new army, which I had never played before and contained sub-optimal choices. It’s the price one pays for being a hobbyist first and gamer second!

Herd Army for CoK 2017

In preperation for Clash of Kings 2017 (a ~100 player tournament in the UK) I decided to create a new army. Last year I played Elves with a nice mix of infantry, cavalry and shooting. This year I decided to resurrect some of my old Warhammer Beastmen miniatures and repurpose them for Kings of War.

In addition I added some wonderful new models, like the War Bull from Scibor Miniatures and an awesome looking charging pig (called a Torvax) from Mierce Miniatures. I then rebased everything onto new multi-bases, added some incidental skulls and arrows and I was done.
