Hobbit SBG - Treebeard and Ents



"Hroom, hm, come, my friends. The Ents are going to war. It is likely that we go to our doom. The last march of the Ents" 
Treebeard, The Two Towers, The Lord of the Rings

The Ents are the tree Shepherds of Fangorn Forest. They are slow to anger but once roused to action they can be nigh on unstoppable, their thick bark hides and long reaches making them formidable foes on the battlefield. Below is the latest in my army for the Wanders in the Wild - they will be part of my Woses army - should I want to play them at 1000 points













Treebeard is the greatest of all the ancient race of Ents that roamed the forests of Middle-earth before even the Elves came and made their homes. Treebeard cares little for the world that is beyond the forest realm of Fangorn, but the destruction being done to his beloved woodlands drives him into a raging fury.







Stay tuned or follow the website for the battle report and the very exciting month 2 and 3 centerpiece we have planned.

LOTR - The Tree Horse of Rohan

Amazing! Whilst out with the family at Knole, Kent at the weekend and we came across this tree... I immediately thought of Lord of the Rings and Rohan horse gods. Although with me it is not hard as I am always thinking about Lord of the Rings!

It is easy to see how the idea of creatures such as Tree beard being thought about and created as a feature in Middle Earth -  this certainly looks like a horse version of an Ent.

LotR: Rohan Banner
Although looking at the picture on the right, taken from futher away it looks like an Ent Giraffe!

Enough of my rambling, hopefully I will be able to post our Alien board game battle this weekend.
