Warhammer Fantasy BIG

At GamesDay 2006 as part of the process of the then new Warhammer Fantasy a game was put on using the 3-up size models. They also made 3-ups of the rules and accessories.

Siege – GamesDay 2010

One of the highlights for me was this fantastic Warhammer siege. A great castle and a wonderful display.

The Island of Blood – GamesDay 2010

The Island of Blood game at GamesDay 2010. Excellent scenery.

GamesDay 2010 Thoughts

So the big news tomorrow at the UK GamesDay will be Warhammer Forge.

Warhammer Forge unveil a veritable horde of work-in-progress resin kits as well as early layout copies of the first in a series of lavish expansion books for the very first time at Games Day UK. You’ll be able to see the staggering range of resin models that have been created over the past year.

In the way that Forge World have transformed how many people play Warhammer 40K, I suspect Games Workshop hopes that Warhammer Forge will do the same.

In the past there have been some Forge World models for Warhammer Fantasy, some scenery and big creatures, however as Forge World move into resin figures, I suspect that this will also happen with Warhammer Forge. This will become the outlet for all those races and creatures we read about, but would never be part of a huge GW release.

I would suspect that at some point we will see a Kislev book and possibly even Cathay.

Another thing we will see for the first time tomorrow is the Grot Mega Tank and Necron Tomb Stalker.

I really like the Grot Mega Tank and hopefully I will be able to pick one up.

Also we will see the Dark Eldar, wonder if any of them will be for sale?

Skaven Screaming Bell

Before Citadel released the new plastic kit, you had to make your own Skaven Screaming Bell.

This version was from a game at GamesDay 2007.

Nice conversion.

Fantastic Fantasy Building

A well made fantasy building from the display cabinets at GamesDay 2008.

So much detail and beautifully put together.

It makes extensive use of the fantasy building kits from Games Workshop. I am really pleased with the quality and quantity of fantasy (and 40K) terrain and scenery now available from Games Workshop. It really makes it much easier to create excellent looking tables. I do though need to model and paint more scenery though.

More photographs of fantasy buildings and scenery.
