Three stands of Minotaur wizards and six commanders, these are mainly figures from the new Warband backs from Pendraken, which have loads of character.
This is another fairly new army. Initially I had a few Dwarven infantry units from the BoFA set who where part of the Dogs of War army. Then a few cannons where added (initially as allies for KoW Men) and some gyrocopters. This just about gave me a playable force for Warband. Then the excellent Copplestone LoTR dwarves were available on sale - so this was enough of a reason to add these to the army - giving me a good solid core of infantry. Now I just need to paint these chaps. The main element missing from the army are missile troops. As these are definitely a slow burner project, I am in no rush to get these and will wait and hope that Copplestone will make some Dwarves with bows. At the minute I'm steering away from some of the GW elements like the orange bearded Troll Slayers. But I am happy with the engineering and black powder elements.
Had a sort through the lead pile of my Araby figures. Lots of cavalry being the summary! TB Line Knights 5 units, 35 figures Heavy cavalry, 2 units, 12 figures Camel riders, 5 units, 30 figures (+ 3 spares) Mounted command 3 figures Crossbows (need to find these, probably 3 units worth, already base coated and on painting sticks) Games Workshop Horse Archers 7 units, 28 figures Pistol cavalry, 4 units, 16 figures Pack camels 2 Camp figures 6 & market stall Pendraken Pack camels 6 figures Civilians 12 figures Magister Militum Light cavalry 22 figures (too small to use with TB Line cavalry) Units mentioned above are for HoW on 40mm square bases.
Late Era Romans manning a Ballista, these are standard imperial roman ballista, raised up slightly on a washer. The crews are lightly customised figures from the late roman skirmishers. All figures are Pendraken, based on 40mm squares.
