Each model was cleanly cast with a minimal amount of flash to clean up and the details were crisp and clear.

When it comes time to expand to another army, I’ll likely look to Forged in Battle first, and if they do more 15mm historical kickstarters, I’ll be sure to join in. A bladesage that follows the path of the noble truth follows the path of only one discipline, seeing the world through the lens of one school's philosophy. If you're looking for an in depth exploration of the Warhammer world look elsewhere, but if you're looking for a good read this is just fine. The only place where this novel shines is the beastmen themselves, endowing them with rather clever humanity whilst keeping them sufficiently bestial. A warrior may ante their Honor in a duel to reach an understanding, sometimes resulting in a change in status with their peers.They’re certainly a lot more even in size than the various ranges from Xyston, and the sculpting isn’t far from their (very high) standard.

Way of the Artist - A monk tradition that admires and appreciates the inner beauty of combat maneuvers as an art form. Besides the war there is also a conspiracy and an ancient prophecy stories that are related to this war. As with Old Glory and Blue Moon, they come in fairly large packs (24 infantry, 12 cavalry, 8 camelry, 2 Elephants or large chariots, 3 small chariots), with a variety of poses. Shadow Blade - A rogue archetype that utilizes the element of surprise to perform crippling maneuvers.

Attaching the two together was tricky as the fit is by no means flush (the two cast pieces are quite rough in the critical neck area where they meet). This is not a fault of FiB minis per se but FiB needs to package their products better to avoid this issue.

The most obvious thing you will notice in the photos is the size difference between Forged in Battle tanks and Battlefront.The vehicle bodies are all one-piece resin castings that include a molded base (similar to the Flames of War trucks). The FiB MkIV scales well with the older Flames of War MkIVs but not their newer ones (the ones they started producing a couple years ago or so). Even facial details are well presented, although painting these is beyond my abilities so I relied on a wash to bring these out. In the Crooked Dwarf band, there were a number of old soldiers who bantered back and forth as if they were still in the count's pay, drew their sword and gave their sword arms another feel of the weight of their swords.
