I never imagined to play Free Folk and get pass tokens. Well, with the amount of 3+/4+ across the table, I decided to bring Mag again for the final game of A Dance with Dragons.

Ninth Battle of Cluswar: A Song Of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game tournament
Mini tournament time! Here's the link, but my personal breakdown: we were 5 players, so a BYE each round. Felt bad, free crushing victories to the best players. I tried a new approach to Free Folk, with less but more resilient units. Well, it didn't really work out. Got beaten 2-1. No, I did not get a free victory. Still, every game was damn close, and I had a good time. Back to the drawing board on the lists, though.
Game 1: Free Folk vs Starks
First up, a brutal game of Banners and Butchery. The Starks deployed almost on the line. I missed my animals to hold them back, but they would have been of use trying to hold objectives.
Game 2: Free Folk vs Nights Watch
Next up, my least favorite swingy game mode, Fire and Blood. Free Folk units can't kill anything. Except Mag, but then he gets focused down. Especially with a Ballista on the other side. But again I couldn't bring my zoo, otherwise the animals would just get marked and give up points.
At least we had regular and not in-your-face deployment, so Jarl comes in turn 2. Refuse flanks on both sides.

Painting githyanki
Two packs of Nolzur's Marvelous pre primed githyanki miniatures, as a palette cleanser.

August review and September goals
August is done and it went... about as expected. RPGs took a break, indeed I played nothing else but a small ASOIAF event. I'll be writing about it next week. However, we'll be starting September in force with both the Dungeon and our adventures in the Australian outback scheduled to resume this week. After, we'll be back at Warhammer as well.
Hobby wise, I finished stuff, including the entire 1920s investigators project (32 girls done total), both squads of Free Folk, and the Krieg artillery teams. Publishing soon. I also advanced on other fronts, by priming Bones miniatures using my airbrush whenever the weather allowed it.
As for September, I have a small commission of 2 giants (including Mag the Mighty). Otherwise I'll be going into painting fantasy miniatures and rounding up my remaining Guard infantry. Also airbrush prime whatever I can while the weather allows it.
All in all, the lull in hobby time is over. Games will resume. I'm ahead of schedule painting wise by 23. Let's have at it!
