SBG issue 9 - Summer 2019

The most recent issue released so far from the awesome fanzine, this issue takes us to the forest of Mirkwood for some daring adventures.


A great and slick looking issue once more, let's have a look at what we can actually find inside the 48 page magazine.

It starts of with the regular trinity of features, namely the editorial, SBG Towers and Hobby Blog columns to show us what goes on at the production team.


 

Now, making use of an awesomely made Mirkwood board, this issue features no less then 2 battle reports, and the first, Attack on Rhosgobel, puts Radagast under attack from Mirkwood Spiders.


A new series also starts this issue, namely My Favorite Character, in which every issue someone will look at their star from the franchise, so not only based on in-game performances.


But the next article does that though, as they take a look at which characters from The Hobbit trilogy brings the most to the table for their points... had the movies been one big game of MESBG.



In this issues Tactica, it is only fitting that a look is taken at the Halls of Thranduil army.

 

The second battle report of the issue, Mirkwood Ambush, sees the elves of Mirkwood being ambushed by Bolg and his forces while escorting Thorin and his company through the forest.

Rick's River takes a look at how the beautiful enchanted river seen throughout this issue has been created, giving pointers to those that want to make their own waterways.


In Converting Mirkwood, there isn't only a Mirkwood showcase, but also a guide on how to convert Bolg in order to have him wield a bow.  Talking Bolg, he is also the centerpoint of the final article, a painting guide for the spawn of Azog.


And there we have it, another great issue of SBG with a lovely theme centered around an awesome gametable.  I have no idea when issue 10 will appear, Covid and all having some serious influence on the schedule of up and about everyone in the world, but rest assured I look forward to it!
