Things are going well for Clan Frostbight . The past weekend I got all of the models put together include two Warp Lightning Cannons I had a hard time getting. Thanks to some help from my friends all 89 models are together, on bases and flocked.

all 1000pts

Other then getting the models together I’ve had a busy week trying to get some progress made on the army. Aside from almost getting the back 15 of the plague monks done I successfully got all three units on magnetized movement trays.

The process was simple but took abit of work to do with so many models. For the banner and the rat ogres I used large rare earth magnets but the rest of the army is plastic so I went out to the craft store and bought a pack of business card magnets.

So after checking out the large selection of magnets I went with these for two reasons. 1. They are cheap, 2. they are flat out of the package, most magnets I found were rolled up and that just causes problems in the end. I bought three of these but I only needed one sheet for the rest of the army.  I cut the sheets into small parts to fit the sectioned bases of the troops and glued them on top of two slices of plasticard.

Most people dont bother magnetizing their entire army but after just a few games I can see the advantage of it. Load a 30 man tray with spears and a full command then try and put it up on a hill with out them all tumbling down. The cost of the modification is under 15 dollars and I have tons of material left (including the sheet metal) so I should be able to make the larger 70 man trays as well as expanding the army. Oh and the magnets are strong for their small size.
