Special nuns (mixed habits)
Introduction
Same Kickstarter, same minis. For the office cadre, I decided on something special: doing them all in the habits of different orders, for quick identification on the field of battle.

Dungeon of the Mad Mage: Crystals, mushrooms, trees...
We ended the previous session just after combat, so we picked up the game looting and foraging for mushrooms. We debated on resting and finally decided on a short rest, as the day was still young[1]. Somewhat rested, we took a good look on the finally revealed map of the 4th level, and went back to a larger cavern we skipped on the way. We flew over a large trench and landed to collect more mushrooms.[2] Then on to this place full of crystals and three large tentacled stone monsters. Roll for initiative!

Naming my nun army
I can't explain why, but, while painting the nuns, my mind really got snagged on the concept of a personalized army a.k.a. "Your dudes" (dudettes?). I had previously only named my Bloodthirster and Great Unclean One, but never showed it on the minis themselves. I decided to try something new, and name every single miniature... by writing a name on the front of the base.
Nun command squad (black habit)
Introduction
Same Kickstarter, same minis. This hilarious command squad includes a not-Aquila standard and an old timey telephone.

D&D 5E one shot collection - Grinding through the Slave Pits of Quabus
Last time, Dace had just barged in on some guards investigating the slaughter. Upon consulting his party members, he decided to turn tail and run. The adventurers prepared to ambush the guards, but none came - Groot heard the leading hobgoblin bark orders to set to defend.
Ulfgar decided to get a barrel and make Groot and Bernie crawl inside, then roll the barrel down. Sure. They went down into the darkness. With noone to fight, they let the barrel roll - to no adverse effects. And then the doors opened, and the guards threw javelins.
