I wondered if anyone had any particular fantasy 54mm plans for 2022.
l currently have a Doug Miller metal figure on the go of a wizard as well as some Chintoy medievals.
A final purchase of 2021 was an order of techlog Figures including centaurs, werewolves, orc/goblin, elves etc. They are estimated to arrive in March.
The plan is to do some Portable Wargame or Table top fantasy battles on a square or hex grid. The vibe is Narniaesque if I might be excused such a horrendous expression. Pauline Baynes the illustrator and her work is at the back of my mind…
Finally any 54mm suggestions for Dyrads and water spirits figures?

My 17th C France project crosses into fantasy because of the dragons but nothing else planned in the genre. Couple of the guys are revisting a Greek Myths & Gods game at one of the UK shows this year, but I'm not involved. have played it and it is great fun. Rules are our own TODD-Fantasy 1:1.
Good luck with this one - sounds fun.

Sounds like a great project! For dryads there are some resin 3d prints on etsy and ebay that look nice. This one is 3d print and is a little racy for some workplaces but the price isn't bad if you only need one or two: www.ebay.com/itm/384624854179. This one is not racy, and is not too expensive: www.etsy.com/listing/834063869/dryad-3d-printed-miniature-model-for-dnd? This one is not a print,it's metal I think, not racy, kind of creepy, and more expensive: www.ebay.com/itm/363670622791The resin prints are available from multiple sellers, so you can probably find one in the UK and not pay an arm and a leg for shipping. As for me I probably shouldn't have plans for fantasy but I do - well, maybe not plans, but an inclination to pursue it. I have been re-basing my Deetail knights to individual bases for the purpose. The Venusian VSF campaign I'm doing with Cloud Captain already toes the fantasy line (sci-fantasy?). The non-Earth forces I'm building for that will provide a source of figures that will work, with added spellcasters and more fantastic creatures. I'm thinking small warband / adventuring party rather than larger battles, for an RPG-lite experience. For setting, I've long wanted to do something like "Thundar the Barbarian" and the RPG "Sorcery & Super Science!". Rules are up in the air, but the Wiley Games fantasy series is a contender since I can easily borrow rules from their other titles for modern and futuristic weapons. |

I have a stalled dungeon crawl project I'm having trouble finding the right kinds of figures (monsters and dungeoneer types) and my terrain is going as well as I's like. I do have about 100 skeleton figures that I am converting and painting. I've done about 40 and tend to do them in batches of 10
Look forward to seeing your progress tradgard

The Brutality Skirmish rules could do an ok rendition of Thundarr/Super-science. Mabye Fanticide could as well. I have about 10 fantasy armies waiting to see use...
@mike Blake
What are the TODD rules like?

Mat and I are playing a number of Ozzz versus everything else. So far the Ozzzralites have fought medieval Renaissance human armies with sorceresses and wizards, the Amerigans from 1900 odd (Americans) and now Dark Elves. On reflection, the Dark Elves were just too formidable but soon we shall play our fourth such game.
The Dark Elves include elves from True legends and Wyches (warrior women) from True Legends and Technolog Amazons, painted in dark colors and white, black or red hair.
You can see it on my blog, Quantrill's Toy Soldiers and my FB page, Fantasy and Sf Conversions and Wargames.
For rules we have been borrowing a lot from Warhammer and also Wars of Ozz for army lists and Ozzz witch and wizard magic.
