Many thanks! Sounds like you’ll have fun with it. Sorry for the extra expenditure though 10mm gets results pretty quickly! (Banners now here 🤣) www.wargamevault.com/en/browse?ke...
Here you will find PDF banners for the Orc & Dwarf leaders and clans, available for both 28mm and 10-15mm sized miniatures! Examples shown use marvellous Oathmark 28mm and Wargames Atlantic 10mm minis with Jon Hodgson Backdrops behind.

My latest Mogsymakes Banners release on WargameVault.com is the Orc & Dwarf banners to accompany The Iron Valley goblet-sized campaign from Reisswitz Press. You can get the banners here:

It’s been a busy week with not one but two releases for Midgard Heroic Battles! Chronicles of Midgard & The Iron Valley campaign both available here: toofatlardies.co.uk?s=Midgard Top drawer layout and art by @handiworkgames.bsky.social as usual. #spreadthelard #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings
Lovely game of Midgard Heroic Battles with old mucker Nick Simmerson. His Vikings mauled their way through my Saxon shield wall with some fearsome dice rolling and poor personal hygiene, though my ability to roll Ravens certainly contributed! #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings
Arrived in the inbox. The pdf version of Chronicles Of #Midgard, the physical version shouldn’t be too far behind.

In between prepping for Midgard Moot and other jobs, I’m grabbing some quick shots of the Wargames Atlantic 10mm skeletons that I finished last week; very appropriate background from Jon Hodgson Backdrops (Ruins & Tunnels A3 book). #wargaming #miniatures #spreadthelard #nerdlings #jhbackdrops
With Nick at Northstar doing a casting run of the fab Celtic myth range, I stumbled across this shot of the weird sorcerer and sorceress in my back catalogue. Ravens on the base are by Great Escape Games and background by Jon Hodgson backdrops. #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings
Sorry, I was too busy running the game to take any more pics!
A first for me last night, running a game lit only by lanterns! 10mm Wargames Atlantic and Forest Dragon minis and my own fast play Mead-Price rules. #wargaming #miniatures #nerdlings #spreadthelard
I’m not at Salute this weekend, but Richard & Too Fat Lardies will be there with some awesome games and the first sales of the new Chronicles of Midgard supplement. Find them at the end of the hall!
(Next show for me will be Partizan on May 17th). #spreadthelard #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings
Connoisseurs of plastic skeletons may remember the Wargames Factory kit where you had the fun of sticking the feet onto each mini. Today, I have found myself chopping the feet OFF the 10mm Wargames Atlantic skeletons… #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings #spreadthelard
I’d say the key point is absolutely no basing material that could get in between the magnet and the base - paint only. Cheers for ordering Chronicles and thanks for your input!
A few years back, I did a guide to creating magnetic movement trays for games like Midgard Heroic Battles - handy if you want to be able to play both battle & skirmish games with the same minis. You can find it here: mogsymakes.net/making-magne... #miniatures #spreadthelard #wargaming #nerdlings
Cracking game of #Midgard last night. Victory decided by a Single Combat. #wargaming #Nerdlings #SpreadtheLard

Yesterday’s visit took us past Castell del Rey near Pollença, Mallorca. Seemingly more rock than castle, this feels like it should be in a Conan movie! #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings
Medieval wooden panels from Palma, still pretty vibrant centuries later. If I’d been around in medieval Mallorca, I’d like to have been doing this kind of thing. 😃#miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings #spreadthelard #medievalhistory
Not doing much social media this week as I’m off in Spain but had to share this one. Having trekked to Castell d’Alaro (once the strongest castle in Mallorca, according to Jaume l) it seemed only right to grab a photo of a couple of Reconquer minis #wargaming #miniatures #nerdlings #spreadthelard
Here’s what 600 skeletons look like on the painting table! Two boxes of the Wargames Atlantic 10mm Boneblades in various stages. With one box already completed, this should give me 9-10 Midgard Heroic Battles Units on 80x40mm bases . #miniatures #spreadthelard #nerdlings #wargaming
Battle of Gallabat 1940
A post from a fellow Lardy gamer got me remembering when Scrivs and I played this at the Cannon show in Retford in 2013! We used I Ain’t Been Shot Mum! Full picture report here: mogsymakes.net/the-battle-o... #wargaming #spreadthelard #miniatures #ww2wargaming #nerdlings
In case you missed it, the official introduction to Chronicles of Midgard went up on YouTube last week. Watch Richard and myself explaining what’s in the book and playing through a campaign turn and scenario. #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings

Painting time has been seriously limited this week but I found a few minutes to work on some 10mm Wargames Atlantic skeletons. Colour scheme slowly developing. #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings #spreadthelard
It’s either a cunning trap to catch anyone sneaking up from the right rear corner, or a redundant attempt to make a holder for damage markers 🙂
Yes indeed, Aug 1/2 this year.
PDF should be available separately after April 16th, but if you order one of the glorious hard copy books in the pre order, you can get the PDF as well for a mere £5 😃
It’s pretty speedy. My son and I concluded a game with 11 vs 10 units in 32 minutes today 😃
Not Midgard for once! Been doing some testing for Mead-Price, a very fast playing set of rules that I wrote for the ‘Wargaming the Age of the Anglo-Saxons’ event at Sutton Hoo. Sometimes described as ‘Midgard’s little brother’, I’m making some amendments. #wargaming #miniatures #nerdlings
