From GrahameH: More 15mm Dixon Samurai (698 points)

This is the second army made up from my old 15mm Dixon Miniatures. Again the infantry units are 16 figures strong and the cavalry either 10 riders or 9. 

General (14 Pts)



Samurai (32pts)

Ashigaru Unit (32pts)


Ashigaru Unit with Yari (32pts)


Ashigaru Bow Unit (32pts)


Artillery Unit (20pts)


Samurai Bowmen (12pts)


Samurai Unit (32pts)


Ashigaru Unit (32pts)

Ashigaru Tippon Unit (32pts)


First Command = 270 Pts

Sub General (10pts)


Samurai Unit (32pts)

Mounted Samurai Unit (9 mounted figures 36pts)


Ashigaru Unit (32pts)


Ashigaru Tippo Unit (32 pts)


And another Ashigaru unit (32pts)


And another Ashigaru Tippo Unit (32pts)


Second Command = 206 Pts

Sub General (8pts)


 Mounted Samurai (10 mounted figures 40pts)


Foot Samurai (32pts)


Ashigaru with Yari (32pts)


Ashigaru Tippo Unit (32pts)


yet another Ashigaru Unit (32pts)


The final Ashigaru Unit (32pts) (although that might not be true)


Third Command = 208 Pts


That's it the second Samurai Army finished. I do have some odd and ends, figures left over, some monks, civilians and baggage which I will do next.

So total for the second Samurai Army = 621pts 

Then I found 5 Ninjas which I had to do as there were no dots to paint (10pts)


Grand Total 631 pts, a painful neck and very sore eyes.

TeemuL: Another busy week from you, Grahame! I feel sorry for your neck and eyes, and I'm little bit worried about your maths, too. Spreadsheet says 698 points. A group shot would have been nice, but given the amount you paint, I'm not asking anything more from you, :) You already have two armies and five ninjas done, some extras on the pipeline. I do hope you some nice side projects to keep you sane.

  6. I didn't know Dixon did 15mm Japanese. I have seen and played with their 25/28mm ones - but you have done a wonderful job on their smaller cousins.

  8. Well done Grahame - some of these are beginning to look familiar now - when you say Dixon I'm thinking these are the Two Dragons Samurai - I have many that have languished in boxes for 20 years - am I correct
