Assault on the Black Tower (Orctober 2022)

[Susofrick]

Seems I am the first for Orctober. Well, be it then!

The orcs' stronghold The Black Tower is under attack! The orc wizards Shadrach and Meshach are calling on the powerful spirit Abednego, but it is probably too late. Many orcs are hunted down by cavalry and elves are attacking the main entrance and killing many orcs with their arrows.

















The knights are for my very old project Gata Skog

Very colourful arrangement!

Awesome work Gunnar. The tower is really cool.

[Konrad]

Nice scene with some good action.

A beautiful scene, with really cool action.
But you say

Many orcs are hunted down by cavalry and elves are attacking the main entrance and killing many orcs with their arrows.

- if this is true, this scene can definitely NOT get a “No Orcs were hurt during the production of this diorama” label!

A great Fantasy battle/siege in progress around this very impressive tower. An interesting array of different figures representing Man, Orcs, Elves and maybe others too, with the characters on top of the tower creating all sorts of magical mayhem. Great work!

[Ochoin]

Looks like loads of fun.

Could you please identify some of the manufacturers?

Thanks! Did I wrong? I thought the disclaimer was "A LOT of orcs were hurt during the production ..." Now you say "NO orcs ..." ! Ooops! A little bit late apparently

The orcs are Caesar version 2, elves and some knights are Alliance. Some cavalry is Caesar Crusader knights, but there are also Zvezda, Italeri and Revell. The tower is for aquariums. The spirit? Hmm, took a little research, but it comes from this set: https://www.dndmini.com/collections/nolurs-marvelous-miniatures/products/d-d-nolzurs-male-human-barbarian-with-horn

That’s a good looking game. I was going to ask about the tower too. I haven’t been down to the pet store to look at aquarium stuff for scenery lately, so perhaps it is time.
