So third week and disaster, a paint mishap and all the Wurttembergers for this week have been ruined so they will have to be repainted. So pts this week is going to be a bit low.
Ancients:
Last unit of Ptolemaic Levy Phalanx, again figures from Outpost wargaming services.
Ancient British warband next, i need another tribe for this army. Each Tribe consists of 5 warbands, 1 slinger, 1 javelin and a light cavalry unit. The whole army will consist of 5 tribes and a hearth clan consisting of chariots. I already have 4 of the tribes complete and half the hearth clan.
For a change some Seleucid foot these are from the Museum Miniatures
Z range and the shield transfers are from vini veci.
Napoleonic.
No Wurttembergers this week, but instead a Polish Cuirassier. The figures are all from the Epic Waterloo
range, this will be the first unit of the heavy cavalry division of the 4th
Cavalry Corps in 1812. So there will be
Westphalian and Saxon heavy cavalry to come in the next few weeks.
So, points I would like to claim:
Ptolemaic Phalanx - 16 x 15mm figures = 32
Ancient British Warband – 12 x 15mm figures = 24
Seleucid Phalanx – 16 x 15mm figures = 32
Polish Cavalry – 12 x 15mm figures = 48
Total claimed – 136 points.

Great work Ian. I particularly like those Ancient British (really, who can deny a good carnyx), and those Polish cuirassiers are very sharp as well. Funny think about the Poles though, is that they were never officially issued with a cuirass, as it was considered too expensive. These guys must have got hand me downs from their French overlords, or got creative with the papier mache. :)
Well done Ian, I look forward to the Saxons and Westphalians coming up soon!

Lovely work, Ian! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's crappy regarding the Wurttembergers; what you produced though has turned out great.
ReplyDeleteBad luck with the Wurttemburgers, but I’ll look forward to seeing them resurrected. Really like seeing all the ancients, really nicely done. Is 16 men your standard unit size, I’d be tempted to go much bigger especially in 15s,
ReplyDeleteLove your cuirassiers - how do you like the epic scale?
ReplyDeleteThe epic figures fit in well with minifigs and Lancashire figures. In my next post i will show some comparisons. The Artillery figures you get on each sprure are also not too bad scale wise. War games illustrated will be giving away an infantry sprure next month so i will do a comparison of thoose as well. i am hoping they do mix as danish auxillary corps is going to be next army.
DeleteHi the 16 figure unit is the size of a heavy infantry unit in the local club rules we use. these rules and army lists can be found on the farbough wargaming club website.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you had a paint mishap!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff - I'm sorry to hear about the mishap
ReplyDeleteVaried output and lots of stuff, I wonder how much there would have been without a painting mishap. Good stuff!
ReplyDeleteLovely work on those little fellows IanS
