From MartinC: Some Wee Scotsmen and a Town (100 points)

 So I am taking advantage of still being on holiday to crack on with some painting. I was planning to do loads of 10mm 7YW ImagiNation Scots but I've managed to organise games every weekend so needed to paint some other stuff as well.

1st up the Scots, my assumption was that Scotland never undertook the Darien adventure and so never went bankrupt and the Act of Union was never signed. Also William of Orange was not accepted as King by the Scots and the House of Stuart still hold sway. I've based most of the army on units and tartans that fought at Culloden. Most of the highlanders are done but I still have the lowlanders to do.

These are Lady MacKintosh's Regiment and the Kilmarnock Foot Guards. They will fight as superior troops in the army

The colours are correct for clans, but he regiments are somewhat made up. Like the rest of the army the figures are Pendraken.

Next up a problem for Tamsin. I have painted 14 Spanish style 10mm buildings, for use in Spanish Civil War and other mediterranean locations. These are brillian resin castings from Pendraken and a joy to paint

Church and house with balcony

side views

Couple of posh villas

I do like the climbing roses I painted on them

another church

same church

Couple of houses

Handful of small houses

and some more

So here is the quandry. As a terrain cube I would get 10 points for all of these buildings, which is mean for a day's painting. They are about the size and complexity of a 28mm infantryman so I think they are worth 5pts each. I call on the wisdom of Tamsin to decide. 

Finally some Vietnam terrain pieces, can't remember the manufacturer and will dig around for the order details

6 sets of oil drums - these were a doddle - paint green, give ochre wash and add some oil drips. I think these should be about a point each

Finally a field kitchen, same manufacturer. Will need a canopy. These are about the same size and complexity as the 10mm buildings so potentially 5pts each

Potential scores on the doors

30x10mm Scotsmen = 30

14 10mm houses = 70 perhaps

6 stacks of oil drums = 6 perhaps

3  field kitchen pieces = 15 perhaps

Thank you 

Martin

Well, your Imaginations Scots' background has enticed me to have a quick read about the Darien Scheme - well done, Professor! Those 10mm regiments look fab - I'll give you some extra points for the tartan.

Now, the quandary you have posed. I hate to say it, but the rules is the rules. I remember doing some similar scale buildings a few Challenges ago and getting naff-all points for them, so I do feel your frustration. That being said, I'm happy to score the field kitchens as 28mm foot figures and to bung a few extra points for the oil drums.
