Kings Of War

Well one of the first events I started was a KoW paint and play league. we have been painting 200 points a month and playing some games.

Painting challenge

Krags will be starting a monthly painting challenge so this seem like a good time for players who would like to learn a new game to start with a fresh army and system.


I am starting a slow grow mantic paint challenge and learn to play Kings of War, by Mantic Games.

Kings of War is the game of mass combat between mighty armies in a fantasy world torn apart by epic conflict and legendary battles. Its fast-paced, competitive rules make the game ideal for massed battles between hundreds of troops - and with Mantic's range, it's possible to do just that without breaking the bank!

We will have to paint 200points for mantic Kings of War list each month, with the end of November we will have a how to play Kings of War tournament event.

So each month
August
September
October
November

We will raise the point by 200 points then the next month while painting the models we will play a game. To learn the fine art of Kings of War.
This leaves us having an 800 point event in November

On the completion of your months painting to 200 points you will receive a raffle ticket.
If you complete any extra painting during the month you will receive a raffle ticket for each group of two hundred points you complete.

With the first prise draws being at the 800pt event in November.

Now what models to paint we would like you to paint mantic models but you can paint whatever you like.
You may choice just to add to your Warhammer army while learning a new game to boot. You could even build a new Warhammer army using mantic minis while playing a new game system while painting.

The rules for Kings of War are on the mantic web site as a free down load I also have some copies that are available.

So get on the painting challenge and learn a new game at the same time.
