UMS "Agram" : SUNHOLD: The First Triumvirate – Report < Articles < Hobby

SUNHOLD: The First Triumvirate – Report

Marko Paunović, 6th July 2022

Sunhold:The First Triumvirate is an AoS28 event game that was held on July 2 2022 in UMS "Agram", Zagreb, Croatia.

The event that was scheduled for summer 2020, after two years of postponements due to the pandemic, finally took place as a part of our traditional Agram Arena Summer.

James (UK): „Sunhold was a fantastic experience, and definitely worth the wait. Painting a warband and seeing everyone else’s models and terrain was a sight to behold, and made me proud to be part of the “AoS28” community. Thank you to the organisers for a great set of games in a superb venue. Hope to see you all again soon!“

As with all our events the day started with setting up the venue. Putting up the banners, connecting the laptop to the overhead projector, setting up the photo area and most importantly setting up the terrain for the game before the players arrive.

The story of The First Triumvirate takes place in a territory freshly liberated from occupation by Chaos. The huge and mighty Stormhost is gone to fight somewhere else, and people are working on resettling the area: rebuilding, repopulating, starting new kingdoms on ruins of old. A small contingent of Stormcast Eternals remains to coordinate and lead these efforts. Although armies of Chaos are gone, these lands are not fully safe yet. Wild beasts, the undead and small groups of servants of Chaos are still roaming about. Each city-state and country are painstakingly reclaimed for mankind, and the execution of this effort is organized as a series of reclamation projects. Sunhold is a sprawling ruined city surrounded by plains,forests and marshes. The events of our game took place within Sunhold.

Each player took command of a small warband, representing groups that entered the city to fulfil their individual goals. They may be a part of the reclamation project and want to exterminate enemies of humanity to make the city once more habitable, or they may be a party of adventurers or bandits who wish to loot the ruins and fill their own pockets. The warbands may make alliances and collaborate, or betray and eliminate each other on their path through the ruins.

Goran: "The event overall was very nice, people really did a great job on their warbands. I endeavoured to get into the character of my warband's leader and his accompanying jester, which looked to have a positive effect on everyone's enjoyment of the game. The terrain and narrative, as well as the rules seemed a great fit for such a roleplaying/dungeon crawling experience. Overall, Ivan and Ana did an outstandingly good job preparing the story, characters, rules and terrain, and it would have been a shame not to enjoy the fruits of such an effort."

Witold (Pol): "From the modelling side of things, I was surprised how much fun it is to use Perry, North Star, and Wargames Atlantic miniatures to make a converted adventuring party, and not using anything by Games Workshop for a change. Great proportions, low level of detail that lets me focus on what is really important... They look very human (or very spider, in case of a few models of mine), grounded and subtle. I may want to make a whole army of these, now."

UMS Agram has a tradition of awarding the best painted models/armies at our events, a chance we could not miss at this visually stunning event. In the end the award went to Vladimir Matić-Kuriljov from Serbia for his hand sculpted dwarf warband

Vladimir: "It is always an honor to be invited to a game organized by Ana Polanšćak. Her dedication drives me to do not just my best, but to push beyond what I thought were my limits, and so it was this time around. Even though I started gaming with miniatures I sculpted myself, it took me years and years to gather the confidence to do so again."

Before the gallery of the miniatures used, UMS Agram would like to thank Ana and Ivan Polanšćak for organizing and running the event. Also we would like to thank our guests from France, UK, Poland and Serbia (Seraphim Soupizet, James Stone, Witold Krawczyk and Vladimir) as well as Cody Taylor and Matt Ross from USA and Simon Schießl from Germany who were kind enough to make and send their models especially for the event. A big shoutout to Nicolas Evans of UK who made the Sunhold logo pins for the event!

	After the performance at the National Championship in Ljubljana, our team went on a trip to Kranj on Sunday morning at the invitation of our partners from Back to Basics!

	

	The day was beautiful and we soon reached the first point of our excursion. The Museum Svet v Malem.

	

	The lecture about the museum was given by our friends Bine Logar, Luka Jančič and Milan Hrestak.

	

	After the lecture, there was free time to view dioramas related to the history of Slovenia.

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	After looking at the models on the ground floor, we went up to the first floor to the workshop area. The first thing that impressed us was the representation of Triglav. A train runs around the entire room, showing the past of Slovenia.

	

	

	

	

	The second thing our hosts surprised us with was a commemorative plaque rewarding us for successfully conducting Back to Basics workshops in 2025, in which we had 100 participants.

	

	On the way out, we signed the Guest Book.

	

	After visiting the museum, our hosts took us to lunch at Walter's (all recommendations for real Bosnian grill!)

	

	After that, we visited the B2B headquarters at the Kovačnica incubator in Kranj, where we discussed the state of technical culture in both Slovenia and Croatia over coffee.

	

	

	

	

	To end the gathering, the hosts took us for a short walk in nature.

	

	And this wouldn't be a hobby trip if we didn't take a peek at at least one LGS - Park Enigma in the center of Kranj!

	

	

	Before returning, there was still time for a coffee and a chat about the weekend's impressions!

	

	As always, more and bigger photos are on our social networks!

	Nakon nastupa na Državnom prvenstvu u Ljubljani, naša ekipa se u nedjelju ujutro uputila na izlet u Kranj na poziv naših partnera iz Back to Basics!

	

	Dan je bio predivan i ubrzo smo stigli do prve točke našeg izleta. Muzej Svet v Malem.

	

	Predavanje o muzeju su odradili naši prijatelji Bine Logar, Luka Jančič i Milan Hrestak.

	

	Nakon predavanja, uslijedilo je slobodno vrijeme za razgledavanje diorama vezanih na povijest Slovenije.

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	Nakon razgledavanja maketa u prizemlju, popeli smo se na prvi kat u prostor radionice. Prvo što nas je impresioniralo bio je prikaz Triglava. Oko cijele prostorije prolazi vlak koji pokazuje prošlost Slovenije. 

	

	

	

	

	Druga stvar čime su nas naši domaćini iznenadili bila je prigodna spomenica kojom nas nagrađuju za uspješno vođenje Back to Basics radionica u 2025. u kojoj smo imali 100 polaznika.

	

	Na izlasku smo se upisali u Knjigu dojmova.

	

	Nakon posjeta muzeju, domaćini su nas odveli na ručak kod Waltera. (sve preporuke za pravi bosanski roštilj!)

	

	Nakon toga posjetili smo i B2B sjedište u inkubatoru Kovačnica u Kranju gdje smo uz kavu prodiskutirali stanje u tehničkoj kulturi kako u Sloveniji tako i u Hrvatskoj.

	

	

	

	

	Za kraj druženja, domaćini su nas odveli na kratku šetnju u prirodi.

	

	A ovo ne bi bio hobby put da nismo zavirili u barem jedan LGS - Park Enigma u centru Kranja!

	

	

	Prije povratka još je bilo vremena za jednu kavu i razgovor o dojmovima vikenda!

	

	Kao i uvijek, više i veće fotke su na našim socijalnim mrežama!

	On Saturday, November 22, 2025. in Ljubljana, the National Championship of Slovenia in Plastic Modeling was held. It was a jubilee, their 30th edition. For this occasion, our delegation performed in several categories, but also for the first time we had a presentation stand as well.

	

	After the set-up, the competition opened at 11 am with the cutting of a celebratory cake.

	

	Throughout the competition, our booth was very popular, and the biggest hit were the homemade chocolate chip cookies made by Marko's wife!

	

	Below is a gallery of exhibits.

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	

	In our opinion, best of show went to Slovenia. Anže Zorko made a fantastic chieftain!

	

	The best part of the event itself was hanging out with fellow modelers and gamers. Many thanks to Amulet D20 for the Middle Earth SBG demo which our Seb thoroughly enjoyed!

	

	

	Finally, the tradition is that the most awarded member pays for the booze!

	

	Look for more photos in better resolution on our social networks!

We attended: Monte San Savino 2025

Our Ivan brings you a report from the best miniature painting competition in the world.

In a small town in Italy, one of the largest and most prestigious miniature exhibitions in the world has been held every year since 2006, bringing together miniaturists from all over the world. The Knezović clan decided that it was a shame that Croatians did not come to the Monte San Savino Show, so after a great time at Kontrast, a miniature exhibition in Warsaw, we decided to visit Italy as well.

The exhibition is held in Tuscany, and all the content related to it is located within the walls of the castle around which most of the town is located. The exhibition is set in an exceptionally beautiful setting of a medieval castle, with which no other similar miniature event can be compared. The town itself allows visitors to easily get to know each other, as most of them gravitate to the square in the center of the castle.

We set off on Friday, November 14, 2025, and it took us about eight hours to get to our accommodation. Italian motorways are good, but Italians themselves often don't know what lanes are for or how to use turn signals. Large trucks often swerved left and right, and drivers usually only turned on their turn signals after they had finished changing lanes. Fortunately, none of the miniatures were damaged in transit. The Patafix and plastic box are more than enough protection for the models.

We distributed a large number of flyers in the hope that some of the visitors would come to our Black Queen, and some even promised us that they would (try to) come. We also awarded the UMS Agram Best of Show medal. We did not proceed in a "judgmental" manner, but rather we sought the work (or works) of a miniaturist that we enjoy the most. I have long appreciated Magnus Fagerberg's works and have often used them as references in my own work. They were even better in person, which is usually the case with all top-notch works. Therefore, UMS Agram presented Magnus, in addition to the Best of Show medal, with a terranino to accompany the Monograph on our work.

The exhibition itself featured the best works that we usually see on social networks, and there were about 2,000 of them in total. Almost all of the winners of this year's Golden Demon also brought their models to Monte San Savino.

The results we achieved were very good, considering the exceptionally high average quality of the works. Filip won one gold with his works in the Storytelling Standard category, while I (Ivan) won one bronze in the Storytelling Master category and one bronze in the Fantasy Painting Master category.

I'll leave the best part of the article for last, photos of some of the models we saw. Filip has since learned how to use a macro lens, so I'd say the photos turned out great.

" ["content_hrv"]=> string(13979) "

Naš Ivan vam donosi reportažu sa najboljeg natjecanja u bojanju minijatura na svijetu.

U malom gradiću u Italiji svake se godine, još od 2006., održava jedna od najvećih i najprestižnijih izložbi minijatura na svijetu, koja okuplja minijaturiste iz cijeloga svijeta. Klan Knezović zaključio je da je šteta što na Monte San Savino Show ne dolaze Hrvati, pa smo nakon odličnog provoda na Kontrastu, izložbi minijatura u Varšavi, odlučili posjetiti i Italiju.

Izložba se održava u Toskani, a svi sadržaji vezani uz nju smješteni su unutar zidina dvorca oko kojeg se nalazi veći dio mjesta. Izložba je postavljena u iznimno lijepom ambijentu srednjovjekovnog dvorca, s kojim se ne može usporediti nijedan drugi sličan minijaturistički događaj. Sam gradić omogućuje posjetiteljima da se lako upoznaju, jer većina njih gravitira trgu u središtu dvorca.

Na put smo krenuli u petak, 14. studenoga 2025., te smo putovali oko osam sati do našeg smještaja. Talijanske autoceste su dobre, ali sami Talijani nerijetko ne znaju čemu služe prometne trake ili kako se koriste žmigavci. Veliki kamioni često su lelujali lijevo–desno, a vozači su pokazivače smjera uglavnom uključivali tek nakon što bi već završili prestrojavanje. Nijedna minijatura srećom nije nastradala u prijevozu. Patafix i plastična kutija sasvim su dovoljna zaštita za modele.

Podijelili smo veći broj letaka u nadi da će dio posjetitelja doći na naš Black Queen, a neki su nam čak i obećali da će (pokušati) doći. Dodijelili smo i UMS Agram Best of Show medalju. Nismo se vodili „sudački“, nego smo tražili rad (ili radove) jednog minijaturista u kojima najviše uživamo. Već dugo cijenim radove Magnusa Fagerberga i često sam ih koristio kao reference u vlastitom radu. Uživo su bili još bolji, što je u pravilu slučaj sa svim vrhunskim radovima. Stoga je UMS Agram Magnusu, uz Best of Show medalju, poklonio i jedan teranino za uz Monografiju o našem radu.

Na samoj izložbi mogli su se vidjeti najbolji radovi koje inače viđamo na društvenim mrežama, a ukupno ih je bilo oko 2000. Gotovo svi pobjednici ovogodišnjeg Golden Demona također su donijeli svoje modele na Monte San Savino.

Rezultati koje smo ostvarili bili su vrlo dobri, s obzirom na iznimno visoku prosječnu kvalitetu radova. Filip je sa svojim radovima u kategoriji Storytelling Standard osvojio jedno zlato, dok sam ja (Ivan) osvojio jednu broncu u kategoriji Storytelling Master i jednu broncu u kategoriji Fantasy Painting Master.

Za kraj ostavljam onaj najbolji dio članka, fotografije nekih od modela koje smo vidjeli. Filip je u međuvremenu izučio korištenje makro leće pa su fotografije rekao bih odlično ispale.
