"Eternal Conflict" — the most epic piece I have created so far, inspired by Tolkien's stories. A battle of wills and song between Sauron and Finrod Felagund in Tol-in-Gaurhoth

I've just started reading the Sharpe books and suddenly became interested in historical wargames (imagine that). Are there any systems that focus more on a skirmish scale and have larger, more dynamic minis?

I was in a Pokemon club on a Sunday morning, some of the older kids stayed after to play 40K. My mum let me stay one weekend and I played a game of Dark Angels vs Khorne Chaos Marines, they had loads of Bloodletters and Juggernauts. I was hooked then subscribed to Battle Games in Middle-Earth later.

Treated myself to a new edition of The Hobbit this #TolkienReadingDay. Or should I say A' Hobat.

An obvious choice: "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world." Highlighting that we are better off when we have others to share our company with. This carries more weight this year for me as I get to sit around a table with my wife and daughter. 🎟

Frodo and Sam reach the mountain’s foot. ‘What a tale we have been in, Mr. Frodo, haven’t we? I wish I could hear it! And I wonder how it will go on after our part.’ Molten rock flows past. Ash rains down.

They fall, senseless—but are caught up by two great Eagles of the north.

Gandalf proclaims: ‘The realm of Sauron is ended! The Ring-bearer has fulfilled his Quest.’ The Black Gate and its towers fall. Orcs turn and flee.

Gandalf asks the great eagle Gwaihir to carry him south.

‘I would bear you whither you will, even were you made of stone.’

Orcs and Easterlings pour forth from the hills. In the first wave of the attack, Pippin stabs a troll, but is crushed beneath it. As Gandalf stands on the hilltop, Frodo and Sam both feel a call—‘Now, now, or it will be too late!’—and start crawling up toward the road.

Aragorn rides toward the Gate with Gandalf, Éomer, Prince Imrahil, and a heavy guard. Gimli, Legolas, the sons of Elrond, and Pippin ride as witnesses for the other free peoples.

‘Let the Lord of the Black Land come forth! Justice shall be done upon him.’

There is no answer.

The wind turned to the north overnight. Now the morning shows the bleak land around the Morannon to be completely empty. Only the eight Nazgûl are visible, circling high above the Black Gate. Aragorn and the Captains prepare the army, arranging them on two hills of slag.

The morning of March 25 brings a dim light to Mordor. Sam wakes. ‘Now for it! Now for the last gasp!’ He’s able to stand, but Frodo with the Ring can only crawl. Sam lifts Frodo on to his back and starts climbing Orodruin, the Mountain of Fire in the heart of Sauron’s realm.

I'm really enjoying the content from Warhammer TV, just caught Ultimate Paint-Off, which was a lot of fun, but my favourite of their shows has to be Scribes & Scriveners. I'm still hoping for more animations, though.

They spent a week talking about Porter falling awkwardly, I'm sure we won't here a thing from them about Mauvaka's assault.

My parents have just landed in New Zealand, and I am not at all jealous.
