AdamC: Arda via Caprica (184) point)

 Leaving the Santisima Trinidad and the Death Star behind we now journey back to Caprica.

As my Transit fee I offer up another Doomed Confederate Ironclad the CSS Baltic. 

Baltic was purchased and converted in 1862 by the state of Alabama to defend Mobile Bay. She spent 1862 to 1863 helping build underwater obstacles and "torpedoes."

By late 1864 she was in bad shape and the Confederacy started stripping her armor to help build CSS Nashville, thus she missed the great Naval battle of August 5 1864. She was doomed to be captured having never fired a shot in her own defense. She's a 15mm vehicle so 8 points.

Now some generic Confederate gun boats (3) and spar torpedo armed tugs(4). The first have two artillery pieces.

The second are something like aquatic Kamikazes seeking to ram Yankee warships. They should provide another 56 points that may be a little high but the other ships where probably a bit underscored so it's probably a wash. Also that's a squirrel point for a Confederate "Fleet."

Now it's time to visit Arda with a Tolkien's Army of the Dead as sculpted by Games Workshop. I didn't like the greenish glowing appearance of these guys in the movie.  

I did them in something like a grayscale. Tolkien calls them shades of men so a dark palate seemed best.  I did make their weapons shine and armor is also bright.  I added a few shields from my bits box to give them more diversity.

There are 20 figures in all 28mm figures (or whatever GW does these days).  That should net me 100 points and another Squirrel Point.

-Total points 8 15mm vehicles at 8 points each (64 points)

-20 dead 25mm soldiers  for 5 points each (100 points)

Arda- 20 points (Caprica revisit doesn't count for points)

Total= 184

Squirrel points 2

Great looking ACW ships Adam, really like the Baltic.  As with many Confederate ironclads the engineering wasn't up to the task.  And you have to have spar torpedo boats, the weapon of choice for seamen who want to touch the enemy with unstable explosives mounted at the end of a 40 foot pole.  After using these in action, Sylvan commented that they reminded him of Space Ork weapons.  Great work on the LotR undead too.
