Review: Armies & Legions & Hordes.


Doing my daily reading on the Faeit 212 BlogExchange, I came upon an excellent review that is worth checking out.
I saw this review up on the Eternal Hunt by krautscientist. An excellent written review of Dave Taylor's new book that was successfully Kickstarted not all that long ago and has now reached backers.


Here is a link to Kickstarter Campaign

Here is an excerpt of that review from Krautscientist. Definitely something you should go check out where Krautscientists dives in and tackles not only the best things he found in the book with pictures, but also the Pros and Cons of what he liked and thought could be improved.

Review: Dave Taylor’s “Armies & Legions & Hordes”
https://eternalhunt.wordpress.com/2019/01/29/review-dave-taylors-armies-legions-hordes/


“Armies & Legions & Hordes” is a book about the collection and completion of tabletop wargaming armies and similar projects, and as such it serves as a fairly comprehensive collection of advice on every aspect that goes into the realisation of such projects, from the first spark of inspiration to the actual process of planning, building and painting the army and its models. Dave’s articles on those various steps of a project take us through each of the stages in turn, which makes for helpful and concise reading.



Dave Taylor has managed to collect a rather comprehensive set of advice on army building and painting, has topped it up with lots of drop-dead gorgeous army features and has added great production values to the mix: This book will look great alongside your official GW publications as welll as hardcover army, rule or sourcebooks. It’s a wonderfully comprehensive package, and a swell addition to any hobbyist’s collection, so I am more than happy with my investment and happily consider “Armies & Legions & Hordes” totally worth it!
