Tried to reply on the blog but easier to get an audience with the pope. Anyway the gist was - useful review. would make good Alpine opponent for fantasy Renaissance Italians, may well convert crossbows to handguns.

For this week's game we broke out the 15mm figures for a 'big battle' using the DBA version 3 rules.

They're nice, lovely job  :-bd
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Good looking game, I'm being tempted more and more by DBA 3.0 :-\

Primal Skorne

So i took a recent doversion into the world of Privateer's Hordes game with a small starter force of Skorne.

Figures are hellish to assemble but didn't turn out too bad in the end.

Haven't played the game yet though...

The 'castle' has come out rather splendidly, Lud.  :)
That'll make a superb bit of scenery !

I totally agree with Steve regarding the 'lucky dip' package.

A box of delights:  http://luddite1811.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/whats-in-box.html

The DarkAge figures are a Foundry Pictish Army pack (I have one). Good buy, they retail for about £90!

Think the hard plastic s mage knight, and the winged creature with the pants painted red is a limited edition metal mage knight model, 'a feral bloodsucker'. I use one in my gw vampire army as a winged vampire, quite a nice model!

The sci fi tanks are brigade models 6mm SF:

So...i've gone all Frostgrave.  Tried to resist but finally caved.  I must say I've enjoyed painting some lovely old characterful models.

It might be nostalgia, but, well...they don't make 'em like they used to...
