Attacking the Dwarf City




Probably my favourite display game at GamesDay 2008 was the Dwarf City that was under attack by a sea borne Orc and Goblin army. The scenery was beautifully constructed, some amazing Venetian inspired buildings and bridges.

In previous blog posts (here, here, here and here) I posted some photographs of the Dwarf buildings. In this posting there are some photographs of the Orc sea vessels that were attacking the city.

The Orc boats were wooden attack boats that looked like the Orcs had just thrown them together.

There were many vessels that had landing craft abilities.

In the background of this photo, you can see a Dwarf Monitor steaming out to defend the city from attack. The Orc boat in the foreground has siege engines lashed to the deck.

There were some nice little touches such as this splattered goblin doom diver who obviously missed their target.

Lots of nice architectural details on the buildings such as the dwarven “gargoyles”, even the smoke from the chimneys.

There were also lots of lovely boats and ships, including this Orc submarine…
