"Busy Buzzing Everywhere!" - Herald of Beelzebub - Part 1

The Heralds are the vanguard  in any assault of the Black Grail,  and the ear-numbing drone of their wings  strikes terror in any defender,  breaking their focus and sapping their willpower. - Trench Crusade Welcome back Caesura fans! It's time for The Art of CAESURAAAAAA!! Ahem, thanks, glad I got that out of my system. It's an exciting time to be in the Caesura-land. I'm really really enthused about Trench Crusade, and some of my friends are really getting into it too! One of my buddies has turned a kilogram of air-dry clay into hundreds (and hundreds) of sandbags! Behind the scenes, I'm actually starting on my SECOND Trench Crusade army and am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to play my first game! Now, on to today's topic! We're working our way through my Cult of the Black Grail warband. We started with the Thralls , we've seen how I'm making my Black Grail bases , we've painted the doggies , and most recently the Corpse Guard . Today, we'r...

"Parasite Host" - Corpse Guard - Part 2

If they serve with distinction,  they may one day join the ranks  of the Infernal nobility. - Trench Crusade Howdy Crusaders! Welcome back to The Art of Caesura! Last week , we had a deep dive in to how I painted these guys, this week, let's just revel in their goriness! Whilst gazing in horror at these Corpse Guards, let's discuss their role in the game. "Meta"-folk (those who want to create the most efficient - "best" - lists) will not be including Corpse Guard.  These guys are relatively expensive for what they bring to the table - they cost more than twice as much as the Thralls , and in terms of their stats (especially how I plan to use him) they are basically the same - one extra inch of movement.  The main reason that I am bringing one, is because I just think they look so damn cool, and rule of cool trumps all in my books! So now that I'm dead-set on bringing one, I need to figure out how to make him work for me. And the inspiration came from the...

"Black Grail Bodyguard" - Corpse Guard - Part 1

Only the strongest human devotees  can survive the compounding blessings  of the Black Grail.  The ones that do are inducted  into the ranks of the Corpse Guard,  bodyguards to the nobility of the Order of the Fly. - Trench Crusade Happy Friday, welcome back to The Art of Caesura! We are knee deep in the infected trenches with my Cult of the Black Grail war-band for Trench Crusade. My buddy and I had our painting night last night, and I can't wait to show you what we've been working on. He also revealed that four guys from his local area (about 2 hours away) are getting into Trench Crusade in a big way - including printing an army of Trench Ghosts in transparent resin for some fun ghostly effects.  The movement is growing! And I'll tell you what else is growing - my Black Grail warband! Today is a huge post. I was going to split it in two, one post for each of these Corpse Guard, but I thought there would be too much repetition for you, dear reader, so Merr...
