Summer of Hobbying 2019: combined Nurgle force (AoS)

Anyone order a slice of fungus toad bleak throat rot pizza? No? These chaps haven’t been on the blog for a couple of years now, in fact they were still AoS 1.0 last time I checked. But now that Maggotkin of Nurgle and AoS 2.0 came out last year, it’s time to bring this project

Nurgle month- week one: Stagrot Gladiators (BlightKings), and the Stagrot warband

The first week of Nurgle month will start with my newly painted Blightkings to mark the preorder release of the Maggotkin of Nurgle. Since this is my only AoS themed Nurgle force for this month, I thought I’d finish the unit off as soon as possible (the bases were left plain as I need more

New Years resolutions- 2018

Like last year, I do my own New Years resolution for my hobby work, wether it’s getting an army done on a deadline, or focusing on being more involved with communication with the community. Before I do my 2018 resolutions, lets take a look at last years list and see if I’ve completed any (or

January- Nurgle month

Hello, and welcome to the first post of 2018 on Bjorn the Stormborn.

However, the story couldn’t be fully realised without the

The Stagrot Gladiators (AoS Skirmish faction spotlight) [part 2 of 2]

After playing my first game of AoS Skirmish, I found the game to be really engaging to play. This inspired me to create warbands that are inspired by real world history, lore for Warhammer fantasy and Age of Sigmar. Each faction will have its own unique story and culture based on inspiration that best suited

AoS Skirmish

This week I played my first game of AoS Skirmish using my Khorne Bloodbound faction, and I’ve got to say, it was really *fun! I’m really engaged to do more games with Skirmish, as I can see a lot of potential to create more focused narrative stories. (*-Not because my Aspiring Deathbringer nearly destroyed a
