Medieval Mayhem Characters

Here are the latest of my completed miniatures for Medieval Mayhem, no doubt some very familiar faces here!

We have Arthur's wife, the lovely Guinevere:

brave, brave) Sir Robin's accompanying minstrels:

Some taunting Frenchmen:

An old man from a bridge, muttering something about birds...

An enchanter:

Sir Noere:

The Knights of Ni

And of course the Black Knight

Studio have created a second Black Knight figure, who can be in various stages of dismemberment

I naturally opted for the completely dismembered look for my Zombie Black Knight!

Right, there you have it, all of the awesome miniatures from Studio Miniatures for Medieval Mayhem! And have I mentioned yet that Medieval Mayhem is available NOW from skirmishoutbreak.com?

No survivor Friday due to in-laws being in town. Will catch up on it Monday....

Medieval Mayhem- Available NOW!

For our 100th post, I have the pleasure of announcing that Medieval Mayhem has arrived!

You can now order your copy of Medieval Mayhem from skirmishoutbreak.com.

It is a 28 page full colour supplement to Skirmish Outbreak. Inside you will find new rules for knights, peasants and squires, rules for armoured zombies, scenarios and of course, the heroes of Medieval Mayhem.

Medieval Mayhem is available in softback print and in PDF formats.

And to tempt you further, did I mention that it has zombies in it?

Including some unlucky Medieval Mayhem employees who got caught by the zombies...

These eight are from Studio Miniatures, made specifically to go with Medieval Mayhem. They are so characterful and dramatic!

And of course, any good theme park needs it's tourists- for Medieval Mayhem I whipped up (another) 40 of the Studio Miniatures plastic zombies....

No excuses not to buy your copy- and of course did I mention that Skirmish Outbreak has $10 off until January?

The last of the Medieval Mayhem miniatures will be up over the weekend, and of course a Survivor Friday too.

Photoshoot Sunday

So after a couple of weeks of furious painting, we have just finished up the photoshoot for Medieval Mayhem...

Which means that Medieval Mayhem will be ready to order next week!

I will be posting up a few more pictures of the awesome Studio Miniatures figures before then, so check back in regularly so you can see the miniatures, and know when you can get a copy of Medieval Mayhem!

Medieval Mayhem miniatures- Squires!

Right, so following on from the knights last week, this week we have their trusty squires!

These miniatures come from Studio Miniatures, and they are really cleverly detailed, the baggage loads they carry have lots of little quirky things, which really add to the character of the models. I have again tried to stay true (ish) to the original characters, but have taken a fair bit of artistic license- especially with the baggage loads!

Anyway on to the pictures...

King Arthur's Squire

Sir Bedevere's Squire

Sir Lancelot's Squire

Sir Galahad's Squire

Sir Bors' Squire

Sir Robin's Squire

And the whole group together

Next up? More miniatures, and some terrain!

Announcing.... Medieval Mayhem!

“ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A KINGDOM RULED BY A WISE AND POWERFUL KING... well actually it was run by a large uncaring corporation, filled with children celebrating birthdays, adults just trying not to go crazy and staffed by slackers, stoners and students!

Medieval Mayhem funfair and theme park to give it is full name was regarded by its’ employees as one of the worst place in the world to work, if they weren’t picking up horse doody or nursing bruises from the rebated weapons, they were selling soft drinks and bad food to the willing audience BUT that was before the Zombie Apocalypse!!!”

Studio Miniatures and Radio Dishdash Publishing have teamed up to bring the Medieval Mayhem funfair and theme park to your gaming table.

Medieval Mayhem is the first supplement to Skirmish Outbreak, and adds a different dimension to the core rules. Inside the book you will find brave knights, humble peasants, damsels in distress and of course, hordes of the relentless undead! So while the knights might be fake, at least their weapons are sharp-ish, and their armour offers some form of protection!

The PDF of Medieval Mayhem will be given FREE to all of those who pledged at the Squire level or above in the Kickstarter (take a look here!), and will be available to everyone before Christmas, in both PDF and softback book formats.

You will of course need a copy of Skirmish Outbreak to play. If you head to skirmishoutbreak.com to pick up your copy in December, you will receive a $10 discount on the purchase price of the printed rules, now just 25 USD!

Further details on the contents of Medieval Mayhem soon….

Conquest 2015- Recap!

So over the weekend, Colin and I headed down to Christchurch for Conquest, a convention I have been attending for many, many years now (it was my first gaming convention in fact many moons ago!)

We borrowed some terrain off a mate of mine down there, Jason, and used my zombies for the games. You can see more of Jason's handiwork on his blog, Krugers Kreations. He designed the terrain for a Fallout game of his own devising, and it makes for a simply awesome Zombie apocalypse table! It is constructed from the Plasticville O scale model railway terrain. The buildings are just a shell, which Jason's excellent conversion skills have turned in to some simply awesome buildings.

We had an excellent weekend of gaming, the survivors fought bravely and survived (sometimes) and the zombie hordes were suitably relentless. Thanks to Tim for making the space for us and to all of those who took the time to talk and play games with us over the weekend.

The whole table

The Priest in a somewhat sticky situation. The yellow token denotes that he has been bitten, and will shortly turn....

Zomb-Carl wandering the streets. Not in the house, surprisingly enough.

Zomb-Bill Murray saying hello to a faceless office worker

The soldier really should move his aim up a bit....

Enclosed spaces and multiple zombies. The priest didn't make it out alive in this game....

The soldier off looting, check out the awesome interior details Jason has put into it!

More than a few cool things on the boil at the moment, but more on those through the week, oh and back to our regularly scheduled survivor on Friday!

Radio Dishdash Zombies and Survivors

Colin and I are off to a convention in Christchurch this weekend, so naturally we needed a set of our figures all painted up nicely, and it also coincides very nicely with the fact that you can now buy yourself a set of our zombies and survivors from our website here at skirmishsangin.com!

for the weekend I have painted up:

The Gas-mask Survivor, wearing a very dapper yellow jacket!

The priest, with his crucifix to save him. And the pistol just in case....

The soldier, one from our modern ANZAC range, he brings the firepower of his Steyr assault rifle to the group!

And of course, we have the zombies. The zombies we have are what we term as "ragers". They are the freshly infected, they are still as strong and as fast as a human, but they can't repair like a living human can, meaning that after a short time, they will break down in to what we know (and love) as a shambling zombie.

The first rager is a police officer

The second, a woman on a night out in her little black dress

The third, a doctor in her hospital scrubs, having bitten through her surgical mask

The fourth, a soldier (and argh- I missed a mould line on his foot!)

Add to that a nice horde of other zombies which I have been building over the year and I am all set for the weekend's gaming!

I am not sure why it has taken me so long to paint my own figures, but here they are, plus, you can buy a set for yourself too! I must get some proper photos done of these figures too, so you will be seeing them again!
