From TomM - We're going to see the Elves Mr Frodo (50 points)

In this entry for the AHPC, I'm going back to the end of the second age... and the very beginning of the game system.


Back in 2001, these models of elf troops and numenoreans where included in the base set, and as Noshi has decided that she wants to play the Elves, they just had to be painted up during the challenge.





To lead these brave men and elves into battle, the great heroes of the time are included as well.  Gil-Galad and Elrond led the Elves of the Great Alliance of the age against the Dark Lord Sauron.





But as we know, the strength of man would fail...

So for this entry, I've finished 10 models of 28mm infantry, which should yield me a nice 50 points.

Alas, Gil-Galad fell that day, and ended up on the cutting room floor, except for about two seconds of footage in the prologue...

Well Tom, as long as the strength of your brushes remains undiminished, the lands of the Free Peoples may yet endure! 

That's a well-earned 50 points, sir!

  1. Nice work, those elves will make short work of any orcs, uruks or goblins that get in their way.

  3. Ahh, it's great to see some LotR High Elves. If I remember correctly, Gil-Galad and Elrond were like orc blenders in the rules. Wonderful stuff.

  5. Great work. I always found it so tricky to get the right colour on cloaks for the elves...
