Chris Dann's Survivors of Laketown and Mirkwood Army - Tale of many Gamers


"Will you have peace, or war?"



SBG has played a huge part in my life since its inception in 2001. So that's now 16 years of hobbying! In that time, despite leaving the hobby between 2009-2012, I have amassed a decent collection. Restarting when the Hobbit SBG was released I have a nice mix of LOTR and Hobbit minis. I can field almost any army at 500 points but alot of armies I have are unpainted/incomplete. So, this Tale of Gamers is a great opportunity to paint up an army I've had for about a year now. I'm also excited by this project as all the new rules for these particular armies have just been released and there is more to come!
Oh, did I mention I'm doing two armies? Survivors of Lake-Town with Mirkood! Here is my 6 month plan: 

Month 1: 1 Warband 
  • Bard the Bowman Girion's Heir (foot & mounted) 
  • 12 Lake-Town Militia  

Month 2: 400 Point Army 
  • Bard (armour)
  • 8 Lake-Town Militia  
  • Gandalf the Grey 
  • 7 Lake-Town Militia 

Month 3: 1 Warband 
  • Bilbo Baggins Master Burglar 
  • 8 Lake-Town Militia 
  • 4 Mirkwood Elves 

Month 4: 750 Point Army 
  • Bard (armour/horse)  
  • 8 Lake-Town Militia 
  • Gandalf the Grey (horse) 
  • 8 Lake-Town Militia  
  • Bilbo Baggins 
  • 8 Lake-Town Militia 
  • Legolas Greenleaf (horse/Orcrist)  
  • 6 Mirkwood Elves 

Month 5: 1 Warband 
  • Tauriel 
  • 12 Mirkwood Elves 

Month 6: 1000 Point Army
