The Campaign for Umbral Void has begun!

Image
They came from far and wide, the myriad races of the galaxy, their invasion was swift and quickly they claimed their territory. Then then after the landing craft departed the generals began their assaults... The first week only empty spaces could be claimed, as we all got to try out the planet strike rules.

Table update: First paint layer

Image
There's been quite a bit of progress since the last update. I cleared off the sand that had covered the terrain boards and coated them with primer. One of the mistakes that I made was that I only placed glue on the underside of the table squares, then i primed the table grey. Unfortunately the surface layer of sand was still too loose so I added another PVA/elmers glue layer. Table before adding more glue to the surface, but after priming.

Campaign Redux: Umbral Void

Image
After aborting a campaign that I had tried to initiate earlier this year, events have conspired to make it possible again. I reworked the map and since I don't have the planetary empires stuff I thought it would be good to set out my own world map. Here it is. Northern Continent of Umbral with the countries of Phobosia (red), and Terras (blue). Southern Continent of Umbral with the coutries of Mellaj(green), and Alta (white).

Terrain project: Table update

Image
Been putting a lot of work in on the table. I have been able to plaster over the hill and a couple other surfaces to give a rocky effect, once its painted. Bark embedded in the plaster to give a rock effect.

Current projects: game table and terrain.

Currently while on the job hunt I've been working on developing my own realm of battle board and castellum stronghold. I haven't made much progress on the apocalypse battle report yet but perhaps that's next up. Early Castellum stronghold.
