As you may have seen in my Battle Of Balin's Tomb review (you can read this here) I added some of the Mines of Moria terrain to the gaming board to make it more 3D.
I also added 22 Moria Goblins instead of the 12 in the box as I had some extra and thought the game could do with more to get that horde feel.
Let's take a look.
As I painted the Space Marine Lieutenant model from the Imperium magazine as a Space Wolves Captain (you can see the post here) in my last Paining & Hobby post I thought as its been made I might as well paint my first Necron.
Yes thats right I have not painted a Necron before.
In celebration of 20 years of the film Games Workshop have released a new board game/miniatures game which is based on one of the famous scenes in The Fellowship of The Ring The Battle in Balin's Tomb.
Let’s Take a Look.
Continuing on with the Space Wolves theme I decided to convert the Space Marine Primaris Lieutenant from the first Imperium magazine to a Space Wolves Captain to add to my new Kill Team.

Let's take a look at what you get in issue one and what to expect in the future.
What do the words Dark, Wood and High all have in common? Well if you an old school Warhammer player they would mean you would be playing Elf's.
Whats all that got to do with todays post well if your are a fan of Elf's this months Your Model Box has something for you as this months theme is Elven.
Let take a look inside.
As gamers we all have the aged old problem of having enough space for our miniatures and storage space for all our terrain. Not only that carrying terrain around to gaming clubs or your friends house can be a hassle.
Well if you are playing Sci Fi games and are short on space I may have a portable solution for all your terrain needs.
Acid House Terrains Portable Sci Fi Wargame Terrain is a card based terrain system that is easy built and packed away and only takes up the space of a board game.
After their successful first print run Acid House Terrain are back on Kickstarter with the second print run.
Acid House Terrain has kindly sent over a box for me to review so lets take a look inside the box.
In this months Model Box we venture to the stars as we mix with aliens, robots, smugglers and all sorts of creatures.
Let's take a look inside this months box.

For those who visit the blog regularly you will know I like terrain and I often keep my eye out for things in shops that I think would look good on the tabletop.
After a visit to my local pound shop I stumbled upon the garden section and found a a lot of shelves dictated to fairies and ornaments for the garden like magic doors and wells etc.
Looking at them I though these might be worth repainting and using for fantasy games.
Let's take a look
Today on the blog I have another review for you from the miniatures company CP Models.
CP Models were kind enough to send over some of their Troglodytes & Jungle Goblins for me to look at.
All models featured are made form metal and are all supplied with plastic bases.
Let's take a look.
A few years ago I put a cheeky bid on Ebay for a load of industrial terrain which has been used in a fair few Shadow War Armageddon games but has always been that project I have not got round to.
You can see the Ebay horde here
As there has been talk of Necromunda and as I was in the mood for a project I thought it was time to work through it.
This week has been pretty busy but I had an hour spare for some hobby time so I grabbed a few bits of Sci Fi terrain from Wargames Terrain Workshop that have been on my desk for a bit and got to work.
These bits fit perfectly with my the finished terrain I posted last week which is a bonus and means I am on a bit of an Sci Fi terrain kick at the moment.
Let's take a look at what I painted.
This week I was in the mood to finish those little bits of terrain that hang around and you just don't get around painting.
With an hour or two spare and wanting to get my hobby fix I got working on some bits of Sci Fi terrain.
The Sci Fi parts in question were a mixture of Mantic terrain and some small MDF terrain that I have used for Deadzone and Shadow War Armageddon and have been unpainted for too long.
Let's take a look.
We cant have too many Fantasy miniatures right?
Well today I have some miniatures from CP Models who kindly sent over some examples of their Fantasy range for me to review.
You may recognise the name CP Models on the blog as last month I painted one of CP's Heavy Trooper Ogyrn which I am pleased to say is being featured on their website which can check it out here
But let's take look at the Fantasy Miniatures
The Sci Fi painting continues this week as I pick another miniature from my self and got to work on a miniature from CP models.
Let's take a look.
This week I went a bit Sci Fi for a bit of a change and mix up my painting and tick another few miniatures from the grey pile.
Let's take a look.
In todays unboxing we dive into the world of hobbits and Halflings as we explore February's Model Box
Let take a look inside.
I hope you are all well.
Going through the grey pile I decided I wanted to paint a single hero model as I wanted a little a break from form painting hordes.
I and went straight for my Gotrek Gurnisson model as I have just finished The Realmslayer Audio Book.
Let's take a look.
The Undead army project continues and this time I tackle a unit of Ghouls
Let take a look.
Hello everyone I hope you have been keeping well.
This week has been a bit up and down as you will see I had a little problem with my hobby room.
This did not stop me however getting on with some painting this week and with all talk of Warhammer Quest Cursed City and the new Vampire models for Underworlds I dusted off my old Vampire Counts project and got to work.
Welcome to the first unboxing of the year for Your Model Box and this month its Artificial Intelligence.
I can't put my finger on it. It could be due to work, the times or I am starting to miss getting out more than I think.
In any case this week I wanted to get myself motivated to start painting again and took my first steps to get my 2021 hobby underway.
