Land of the Dead: Khemri Terrain

July 2007·pp. 92–93

THE SHORT VERSION

Arcane Ruins and gaming hills become the remains of Khemri through matching stonework and a large temple centrepiece. Chad Mierzwa combines two ruin kits with a hill and plasticard, while a converted obelisk borrows a cage, skulls and raven from the Giant frames. Bare trees receive pale drybrushed bark and sand over unwanted foliage, tying every piece to a dead desert landscape.

Dreams of Conquest

Grombrindal imagines reclaiming the lost Dwarf realm through the new Mighty Empires campaign kit. Territorial ambitions give each battlefield result consequences for settlements, mines and neighbouring rivals. New Empire wizards, Flagellants and artillery offer the human armies their own means of expansion, and the editorial points to the Nemesis Crown battle report as a test of their destructive potential.

Mighty Empires: Empires at War!

Jervis Johnson explains why the new Mighty Empires focuses on linking Warhammer battles instead of becoming a separate strategic game. Successful battles create more opportunities to conquer or develop the map, while the short campaign system is deliberately adaptable. Mark Jones describes the double-sided plastic tiles and restrained sculpted textures that allow the same components to represent many landscapes, making map creation a substantial hobby project in its own right.

Painting Mighty Empires Maps

Four maps demonstrate how colour and modest alterations turn the same tiles into Khemri’s desert, Middenland’s forests, Bretonnia’s farmland or the polluted Dark Lands. Rivers become coastlines, marshes become oases or lava fields, and clipped mountains make volcanoes. Painting techniques range from broad drybrushing to fine water highlights, while preparation advice preserves the tiles’ reversibility and keeps ownership pennants visually clear.
