Hoarluk Doomshaper, Shaman of the Gnarls
We’ve just wrapped up a Journeyman League at the new store (Storytellers in Utica, NY) and I decided go with Trollbloods, a chance to get some more play and painting time in. I went with the alternate battle box which consists of Doomshaper1, Mauler, Pyre, Storm. First up I tackled the warlock, having previously painted Doomshaper2, I was on familiar territory with this one. Overall it was a fun model to paint, but I’m never a fan of painting the “bundle-o’-scrolls’ that some trolls come with. As with all my Troll warlocks I put Doomie on a resin slate base and finished it off with a swamp motif.
All the scrolls!
I had a great time playing Doomshaper1, as the league grew I evolved my list into Runes of War. I never managed to get work out of my Runeshapers, but Doomie was an all-star. Stranglehold was cast many times, particularly in those initial low point games. And the feat is a great way to protect my beasts either from the opponent’s alpha strike or from reprisal after my alpha. Rampager was also a great spell to have in the Hordes match ups.
