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.
This army is principally composed of Warmonger Miniatures Landsknecht figures. These have been produced via a number of kickstarters over the last few years. The aim of Warmonger has been two fold to create figures which can be used for the Warmaster Dogs of War Army, and ones that are historically based on Landsknechts. Units organised for HoW (40x40mm basing) Zweihanders - 11 units, 6 painted Halberdiers - 7 units Pikes - 7 units Crossbows - 12 units Arquebusiers - 16 units, 8 painted Combat units have 16 figures, shooters 10 figures. Warmonger also have available Knights (lances, barded horses), Riders (pistol armed cavalry), and have just announced light artillery. I can also add in some Pendraken Landsknecht figures too, 6 painted pike units, and 4 light cannon. There are likely more unpainted Pendraken troops too.
