Miniproject: Kislev, Defenders of the Homeland.

Unit: 2nd regiment of volunteers from Kislev (profile archers)

Training archers means skilful and strong men and long time of training to obtain a useful unit. In times of invasion those requirements are not always achived.

Handgunners are not accurate (or safe!), expensive to produce and are useless in damp weather. But it is relatively easy to train troops to use them. The Citiy of Kislev which has a high income due to the trade with the Empire can afford to invest in handguns and can raise quickly some regiments of volunteers in times of invasion.

2nd regiment is leaded Sergei Zwovensco,  the fifth son of a rich family that make their fabolous wealth with the trade of Furr.

Project: Viet NAM

Unit: peasants and viet cong transport

Mules can go through any terrain, Viet Cong use them to move troops, sometimes disguesied as peasents.

Very nice chap, good composition.
The NVA did have an elephant on the Ho Chi Mhin trail too!
Pack buffalo next?

I think our Viet Nam little project is almost complete, the pack of mules is an add on that pops me reading the cold war commander list.

You could see our figures VN figures finished and based here http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10601.0.html

At this time I would like to explore Cross fire but in the future I would like to play the period with CWC, then maybe I will make an expansion of VN armies.

I also painted a huey (not a very good painting), but I did not take a picture and now I did not have it with me. Maybe Ed (if he read this lines) could upload a picture.

I would like to move to a new project in the next months: Ottoman Turks, army of the half moon. But you know the wargaming intention is like surfing a wave...

Currently I am basing and finishing an old project, Poseidon and his fishmen critters army. It is only left to paint a unit of mairmaids, have the idea but now I need to make it real.

Fantastic

Like those mules, as well.

I read a book last year from an FAO who flew in Vietnam, and he describes how he and a colleague spotted an elephant convoy crossing a river on one flight. The action against it is possibly one of the saddest things I've ever read

Project: Las Navas de Tolosa 1212 Battle

I ended this proyect, but I was using two xbowmen horsemen in the christian king list, so I as not very satisfied because xbow is not a weapon characteristic of the period. Now is time to fix it. So in some way, project complete
