Victorian SF Imperial Guard Rough Riders

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

The main focus of Bristol Conflict 2003 (was it really six years ago now) was the tournament games. Yes there was a Forge World stand and yes there were demonstration games and yes there was a very very small Games Workshop retail stand, however the main reason people went was to play games.

One Imperial Guard army which caught my eye was a Victorian Science Fiction themed army which made extensive use of the Praetorian Imperial Guard figures.

It was a really nice army. This photograph shows the Rough Riders. The mechanically enhanced soldiers in the background are counted as Ogryns which I thought was a clever idea and a nice touch.

The main tank used was a “Leman Russ” though as you can see the actual model took elements of the Leman Russ and combined it with an Imperial Steam Tank from Warhammer Fantasy.

Helm’s Deep

Monday, June 1st, 2009

One of the huge demonstration games on display at Bristol Conflict 2003 was the excellent Helm’s Deep from the Lord of the Rings game.

An amazing looking piece of scenery.

Ork Battlefortress

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

I have always liked the Forge World Ork Battlefortress (less keen on the Battlewagon which it is based on).

This example was from a game at Bristol Conflict 2003.

Ork Battlefortress

The paintwork is a little too red and too clean for me, but you never know this may have been a part finished job so that it could be on the table for the show.

Warmaster Siege

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Warmaster is one of those games which I really like, but actually never do very much with in terms of modelling, painting or gaming! Maybe it’s time to do something about it in 2008!

This is a fantastic Warmaster siege which was on show at GW’s Bristol Conflict back in 2003.

Warmaster Siege

It used the very nice Forge World Dwarf Airship which is what to makes Warmaster more fantasy than anything else.

Warmaster Siege

Overall it was a really nice looking game.
