From MartinC: The Highland Horde (78pts)

My tiny Scotsmen (or are they just far away) continue to assemble. I've been away for 4 days so only a small amount of painting done.

My imaginary Scots army doesn't have cavalry, but it does have the highland horde


The Highland Horde is a large, inferior infantry unit with no guns but a fast move rate. The plan is to get them into combat and create bloody hell.

This is the clan Glenbucket

These are the Elsick Bannermen

Go get em, or some other Scottish  war cry

It's not strictly true that there is no cavalry

These are the Scots Hussars, good for scouting but hopeless at anything else

These will probably be fielded as 3 separate units to just be in the way

Only 1 more brigade to paint

Scores on the doors

48 x10mm infantry = 48pts
15 x 10mm cavalry = 30pts

total = 78pts



It's good to see more of this project - it's a shame there's only one more brigade to come.
