Conquest Tactics: Faction Focus 100 Kingdoms Updated

Friends, when I first wrote this article I listed 'ranged' as a weakness of the Hundred Kingdoms. What a way we've come. The new Faction Focus is ready, so get it and appreciate it while it's hot because I spent...

How to Paint Everything: The Spires – Thanqol’s Method

The Spires are an absolute delight of a faction to paint; their design is so good that I’ve seriously considered starting a second Spires army just to paint them again but differently. A lot of this comes down to...

Conquest: Post-Cancon Interviews

Cancon is Australia's premier wargaming event, where hundreds of players from all over the country cram themselves shoulder to jowl into a barely airconditioned tin shed in temperatures that range from 30C to 40C. That is to say two...

I paint a lot, and that means I burn through a lot of audiobooks. I'm also a sucker who will buy any book with a dragon on the front cover, a weakness that has done me wrong more than...

Conquest Faction Focus: The Hundred Kingdoms – Updated 24/3/2024

The Hundred Kingdoms are in one sense an extremely middle of the road faction. They're baseline humans, with average human stats, average human armour, and average human force organisation. There are no surprises here, no weird units that you'll...
