Hello there, I am from Germany and after a hiatus of about 18 years or so I got back in touch with my inner painter and wargamer. I played a couple of GW systems as a kid/teenager, including Warmaster. I spent some years abroad where I couldn't get actively back into the hobby but did some reading on the subject. Ultimately the lockdown prompted me to get a propper set-up again. Since then I am busy builidng and painting again; mostly for Warhammer 5th edition (i.e. "Middlehammer"). However, I wanted to engage in historical wargaming and with another scale, so I am thinking about starting a little side-project for Warmaster Ancients in 10mm.

@fsn, I am thinking about Saxons and Vikings, inspired by the "Battle of Maldon" poem. I hope I can open an thread in the painting forum, once I start priming my minis.

Ah! Good show!

Might I recommend ELM46 and ELM47 - monks and nuns? Very useful as camp followers or objectives or whatever.

I have it in mind to do a Romano-Briton vs Saxon game as in the Battle of Badon.

Thanks for the advise, they look great. I started with AS3 and NO5.
